Chapter 350 Missing
I don't know if it's because of the recent wars, the bloody atmosphere on the battlefield is too heavy, the moon is covered by dark clouds every night in the imperial city, and it has been a long time since I have seen the bright moon at night.

Also because of the sudden outbreak of war, the situation on the border became more and more serious, and the people in the imperial city were panicked.In the past, the most prosperous imperial city was almost brightly lit every night, but now just after dusk, you can only see the closed doors of every house, even the gambling houses and taverns are no exception.

However, tonight's imperial city seems to be a little different.

After night fell, some figures who had sneaked into the city early jumped out from every corner, and soon formed a small team of about ten people.

Relying on their martial arts being superior to those of the guards in the city, they even met in a dark and secluded alley unscrupulously, and reiterated the orders they had received earlier.

"Just act according to the original plan, retreat immediately if you succeed, don't make any troubles, remember?"

The rest of the assassins looked solemn, and Qi Qi replied in a low voice: "Remember!"

The lecturer nodded in satisfaction, and then let them start to act: "Very good. Now that you have memorized everything, let's go now. If the task is successfully completed, the master will naturally reward you a lot!"

As he said, with a wave of his hand, the men in black who had gathered together dispersed, and flew towards their previously designated target locations.

Seeing the figures of the crowd disappear into the night in an instant, this person couldn't help licking his lips, as if he had seen the large sum of gold and silver treasures that the master rewarded after the task was completed.

After the excessive tension during the day, the ministers of the DPRK and China always get tired easily when they return to the mansion.

Anyway, the imperial city is heavily guarded, and there are soldiers patrolling back and forth in their mansion.Thinking about it, the flames of war had been raging outside the imperial city, and they still couldn't touch the inside of the city, so they slept very peacefully in their respective mansions.

However, no one would have thought that even before the flames of war spread, sparks would be scattered everywhere.Just because of this lack of vigilance, they will have a long memory.

The night is dark and the wind is high, which is a good time to do all kinds of bad things like murder and arson.When no one noticed, several figures quietly jumped into the courtyard wall of the mansion of several ministers.

In the morning, it was still a tense day.

Nangongli's attack before gave this long and steep battle finally a chance to breathe.However, before everyone in the palace could breathe a sigh of relief, several ministers were absent from the early morning court today.

Before Xuanyuanye had time to send people to the mansion to inquire about the crime, the family members of these ministers came to the palace first.

Originally, they all came out of their respective mansions alone, but they happened to run into each other when they got off the carriage at the gate of the imperial palace. After asking casually, they found that their purpose of coming this time was the same.

So these family members who didn't move around very much on weekdays seemed to have found a companion, and they simply entered the palace together and asked to see the Holy Majesty together.

"Your Majesty, the reason for my wife to enter the palace rashly is to find the whereabouts of my master. You also know that the war has been tense recently, let alone the officials, and even the common people dare not go out at will. But this morning, the wife searched everywhere. At home, but failed to find the whereabouts of the master."

The woman who spoke was wearing a royal uniform, presumably she should be the one with the highest rank among this group of family members.Naturally, after everyone met, she was the leader.

As soon as she finished speaking, the women who followed her hurriedly echoed, and each one of them was almost inaudible.But after Xuanyuan Ye carefully differentiated, he found that what they said was the same.

"The same goes for my master. He was fine last night, but I didn't hear him say where he was going. But when he got up early in the morning, he disappeared!"

"The minister's husband is also..."

The war is tight, and more men are on the battlefield.All the people kneeling on the ground in the imperial study at this moment are the wives of the missing ministers.

Crying and talking for a long time, it was so noisy that people's brains hurt.

Xuanyuanye saw that at least half of the seven or eight female relatives were dressed in official costumes, but the patterns were different because of their grades.

The laws of Xuanyuan Kingdom are strict, and there are very few women who can be ordered to dress up.The qualifications and prestige of these women crowded in the imperial study may even be higher than some little-known officials in the court today.

He couldn't speak harsh words, and he couldn't even open his mouth to reprimand them, so he could only say a few words of relief, and then carefully asked what happened.

Before asking, he specially invited Xuanyuan Yelan and Feng Yunqing to come over.

All are described similarly.The only weird thing is that those veterans all disappeared from their own homes.They even shared the same bed with their wives on the night of their disappearance!
After Feng Yunqing rushed over, after hearing the result of Xuanyuan Ye's questioning, he selected two wives for inspection without further ado.Sure enough, traces of drugs were found on them.

But this kind of thing, the impact of speaking out is too great.She could only hide it, and then said softly to the imperial wives: "Madams, go back first. Your lords are the pillars of the country. Your Majesty will try his best to find them and bring them back as soon as possible."

We are all women, so it's better to be easy to talk to, not to mention there are His Majesty and the prince sitting on top.Having said so much, the female relatives couldn't ask for anything more, so they had to leave with tears in their eyes.

Ever since Feng Yunqin persuaded the female relatives to leave, the other two already knew that she had discovered something.But it wasn't until now that everyone had left that Xuanyuanye was finally able to ask.

Feng Yunqing talked about the drug addiction, and then said: "It should be that someone sneaked into your lord's residence in the middle of the night, and took him away without anyone noticing under the cover of drug addiction."

"Since entering the hall did not harm anyone's life, it seems that the ministers who were taken away were not in danger of their lives. Moreover, the other party made such a big movement, and there was no intention of covering it up, as if they were not afraid of being discovered at all. So they should also It’s not about bribing those ministers who instigate rebellion.”

Xuanyuan Yelan took her words and analyzed them.Speaking of this, the voice suddenly paused, and he looked at Xuanyuan Ye: "There are eight ministers who were taken away, and none of them held important power. It depends on His Majesty's will to save or not."

His voice was indifferent, no different from usual.

The current situation is bad, and if he has the energy and strength to do this, he can probably guess who it is.

The words of the two of them have been spoken clearly enough, Xuanyuan Ye only needs to make a decision.But even so, it was enough to give him a headache.

He rubbed the center of his brows, tried his best to cheer up, and sighed: "Those missing ministers, although they don't have great power in their hands, are all the most senior ministers in the court, and their prestige in the court is not low. Very Can't be saved!"
