The servant shook his head and said, "The young marquis went out early this morning and has not returned yet."

Duke Liang frowned, looking annoyed, "Is that woman surnamed Meng still staying in the yard?"

"Reporting to the Duke, Miss Meng went out with the young marquis."

"What a bastard, what a fool, he was blinded by a woman, and he has ruined my handsome face!"

The servant held his breath and dared not speak.

Duke Liang took two deep breaths, "If it weren't for him, would King You have targeted me? Now I can hardly move an inch. My colleagues who used to smile at me are now avoiding me. Don't think I don't know. They are all watching me from behind."

He shouted twice but still felt unsatisfied, and then continued, "There is chaos outside. I don't know what happened to the daughter of the Meng family. The entire Chang'an Street is under strict control. Why is he showing off outside instead of staying at home? Go, send someone to find him back."

Liangguo is fair.

"Yes."

The servant immediately agreed, but before he could leave, the housekeeper came hurriedly to report, "Duke, Prince You is here."

puff!

cough cough cough.

"Who?"

Duke Liang spat out a mouthful of tea, stood up hastily, his eyes widened as big as bells, and he almost thought he was hallucinating.

"My Lord, it's Prince You, Prince You."

"It's me, the king."

As soon as the housekeeper's anxious shout fell, another cold male voice sounded, and Di Wuming's tall figure appeared at the door of the hall.

Duke Liang's legs went weak and he almost knelt on the spot. He saluted and quickly adjusted his facial expression, "This old minister greets Prince You. I didn't know that the prince was coming. This old minister failed to greet you in person."

Emperor Wuming looked at him with a cold expression.

"Duke Liang, where is your son?"

Emperor Wuming asked directly.

The Duke of Liang was stunned. He didn't know why Di Wuming came to his small Duke of Liang Mansion. He was frightened and nervous, especially when he saw with his own eyes that Prince You's legs were now standing up. He felt even more respect and flattery in his heart. You know, Prince You was the emperor's favorite, but he missed the high position because of his leg disease. But now that his legs have been healed, it's hard to say what position he will get.

Although the maternal family behind Prince Han is extremely powerful, Prince You is favored by the Emperor.

Therefore, Duke Liang is more inclined to stand on the side of Prince You.

He thought to himself that although the evildoer in his family had offended Prince You, his attitude towards apologizing had always been good, so Prince You would not be jealous of him. He knew that it was better to give him a light punishment or a severe warning. If he really wanted to put him to death, he would be in the situation where he was just ostracizing him now.

So Duke Liang was still grateful.

But at this moment, he really couldn't understand why Lord You appeared in his small Liangguo Mansion. When he heard Lord You asking about the whereabouts of his evil creature, his heart thumped and he immediately said, "Lord, I wonder why the Lord is looking for that evil creature? Lord, that evil creature has been severely criticized and warned by this old minister, and even beaten with fifty lashes. He really knows that he is wrong, and he has been detained in the mansion by this old minister these days."

Duke Liang said urgently.

Di Wuming raised his eyes and said, "Call the others over."

Seeing that Di Wuming looked a little strange, the Duke of Liang thought that his evil creature was not at home. He felt very embarrassed, but he should not hide it. He said, "Your Majesty, I just reported that the evil creature went out. I don't know where he went to fool around. He must have gone to Wanhua Tower. I will send someone to bring him back now."

"Someone, hurry up and bring the young master back, go quickly!"

He ordered urgently.

Hearing the words of the Duke of Liang, the coldness in Di Wuming's eyes became even more intense. He stared at the Duke of Liang's face. The old minister had awe and flattery on his face, and there was no trace of guilt on his face. In other words, if Qingge was really captured by Yan Minglang's people, then how could the Duke of Liang not know about it?

it is good.

The next moment, Di Wuming's cold and level voice sounded, "Bring the body in."

Duke Liang was stunned. Corpse? Corpse? Whose corpse?

Could it be that evil creature of his?

Did Prince You kill his evil son?

The Duke of Liang suddenly lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground. Before he could cry, Di Wuming's men came in carrying a dead body and threw it in front of the Duke of Liang with a bang.

"Does the Duke know this man's identity?"

The Duke of Liang was so shocked that he almost couldn't breathe. It took him a while to recover. It wasn't the evil creature in his family. Fortunately, it was fortunate that it was not.

"Who is this person? I don't recognize him."

Duke Liang shook his head in confusion.

Di Wuming raised his hand, and someone immediately came forward and tore off the black-clothed man's clothes, revealing the mark on his body.

"This this……"

Duke Liang was stunned and stared at the mark for a long time. Seeing his expression, Di Wuming knew that he really didn't know you, so he reminded him, "I heard that the old Duke had been to the border and saved a tribe over there. The people of that tribe were born with this mark. Later, the tribe leader gave the old Duke a group of men to show his gratitude. Later, these men became the death squads of the Duke of Liang's mansion to protect the safety of the head of the family."

As Di Wuming spoke one word after another, the Duke of Liang's expression became increasingly uglier.

Yes, his father did have a group of loyal warriors, but they were passed on to Minglang.

The main reason was that he was not liked by his father, who said that he was timid and would not achieve anything great. On the contrary, his grandson Minglang was very much in his favor and got a lot of good things from his old father. When his old father passed away, he gave that group of loyal soldiers to Yan Minglang.

So what's going on now?

The Duke of Liang is not a fool, on the contrary he is quite smart, otherwise he would not have been able to hold the position of Duke of Liang for so many years.

The daughter of the Meng family was assassinated on Chang'an Street and then kidnapped. Now her whereabouts are unknown. Now the whole city of Kyoto is in turmoil. That is the newly canonized Princess Anping. Who is so bold as to dare to harm Princess Anping at this time? That is contempt for the imperial power, and it is simply a fool's behavior.

He was still cursing the idiot behind him in his heart.

However, at this moment, he felt extremely cold all over and almost fainted. A chill rose from the soles of his feet and enveloped his entire body, because he realized that the idiot seemed to be his son.

"It seems that the Duke has seen through it."

Emperor Wuming said coldly.

The voice was so cold that it had no warmth at all.

He was trembling all over, and he leaned his head to the ground. The color on his face had drained away. He asked in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, this, this...what is going on?"

"This is Chang'an Street, the assassin who assassinated Princess Anping."
