Chapter 1687 My Mother Who Ran Away with Bai Yueguang 22

The emperor snorted coldly, with a hint of displeasure on his face: "Since you don't dare, then go back and stay here."

Hearing this, the Night King did not dare to hesitate any longer. He quickly got up from the ground and left the imperial study in embarrassment.

After the Night King left, the emperor frowned, thought for a moment, and then directly ordered people to go to Lin'an County to investigate the matter in depth.

When everything was arranged, the emperor suddenly remembered that the Night King seemed to be injured, as if he had been stabbed.

However, seeing that the Night King was still alive and kicking just now, the emperor thought that he was not seriously injured, so he no longer paid too much attention to it.

After returning to the Night King's Mansion, the Night King immediately summoned his men and prepared to send someone to deal with the affairs of Lin'an County.

However, just as he was about to give the order, he unexpectedly discovered that the Night Palace had been surrounded by the emperor's men.

Faced with this scene, the Night King's face instantly became extremely gloomy, and an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness surged in his heart.

Time passed quickly, and half a month later, the investigator sent by the emperor finally returned.

In the Imperial Palace, in the Imperial Study——

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, reading the investigation report presented by the secret guards with an expressionless face.

As the report turned page by page, the emperor's face became increasingly gloomy, and his eyes flashed with anger.

But when he saw the words "No casualties in the entire village" written on the last page, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

The emperor threw the papers on the table in front of him and suddenly sneered, "For a woman, he wants to kill a whole village. This Night King... OK..."

The secret guard standing below saw that the emperor had almost finished looking, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, those assassins were brought back by our subordinates when they went to Lin'an County this time."

Hearing this, the emperor raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Bring them in!"

"Yes!"

Soon, the killers with charred bodies were carried in.

The emperor frowned upon seeing this, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He turned to look at the secret guard beside him and asked, "Is he dead?"

The secret guard hurriedly shook his head and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, they are not dead, but according to the villagers, they fell into this half-dead state after being struck by lightning."

Hearing this, the emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.

Then he waved his hand, signaling his men to drag these people away.

The imperial study suddenly became quiet, with only the emperor and the secret guard left.

The emperor placed one hand on the table in front of him, tapping the tabletop rhythmically with his fingers, making a crisp and low sound.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the imperial study gradually became solemn, as if it had frozen.

After an unknown amount of time, the emperor's emotionless voice came from the top: "Go and call the Night King."

Not long after, the Night King hurried to the royal study.

As soon as he entered the room, he knelt on the ground without hesitation, bowed his head and shouted: "Father..."

However, the emperor stared at him gloomily without saying a word.

Half a day passed, and the Night King still didn't hear his father's response, and doubts arose in his heart.

He slowly raised his head and called softly, "Father?"

"Tell me, why did you want people to massacre a small Jiangjia Village?"

Hearing this, the Night King froze, but he quickly reacted and said, "Father, that was not done by me!"

"Really?" The emperor smiled in an ambiguous tone and suddenly changed the subject, "You married the daughter of Marquis Anyang a few days ago?"

Before the Night King could speak, the Emperor's voice continued, "I haven't seen you bring her into the palace for your mother to see. Your mother and I are free tomorrow, so why don't you bring the girl in for us to see?"
