The crazy child was nowhere to be found.

"Commander, the prince is missing, we searched all around, but there's no trace of him!"

Holding the hilt of his sword tightly, the magnificent man's face was beyond ugly. "Find him. Search the nearby villages, be sure to find the prince!"

After nearly two years of tracking and searching, he never thought they'd be one step too late and caused such a tragedy!

His eyes fell on the charred figure in the courtyard, and the man's hands trembled, veins bursting out of the back of his hands.

Xue Wanrong, Doctor Xue, was dead.

The woman who accompanied the Emperor for 20 years was burned alive.

Could the Emperor bear this news?

To him, this was the woman he loved the most.

He could imagine that once the news reached the capital, there would surely be a storm and bloodshed.

He shut his eyes tightly, then blinked open. He walked over to the corpses of those black-clad men and pulled down the scarves from their faces. The faces exposed under the moonlight were all ugly and hideous.

All of them were disfigured.

So there was no way for them to investigate!

In fact, there was no need to search at all. The people who would attack the 16th Prince and couldn't wait for Doctor Xue's death were none other than those people.

Daylight dawned and their search also woke up the surrounding villagers. Each villager was dazed and widely discussed.

They wondered what the hell had happened, that such a number of government officials swarmed into the village.

The little granddaughter of the Liu family in Xinghua Village was kidnapped some time ago, but only a few people were sent out to search for the kidnappers.

The parade of weaponry in front of them was truly frightening.

The door of the Liu family was also slapped, and the officials searched every nook and corner of the house, making sure there was nothing before leaving.

After the people left, Grandma Liu patted her chest and exhaled. "That really scared me to death. I don't know what great event has happened. I've lived here for decades, but I've never encountered such a grand spectacle!"

"What's there to be afraid of? We're all peaceful peasants. We've never done anything wrong, and the officials can't take it from us." Grandpa Liu scolded, stretching his big hand and patting his wife on the back a few times to help her calm her fears.

Grandma Liu gave the old man a blank look. "What do you think I'm afraid of? I'm just curious what big deal has happened."

"Woman, you're just fond of worrying."

Liu Yusheng also woke up. The officials wanted to search all the sleeping rooms, so her mother fished her out of bed.

These caseworkers weren't noisy. One could even say they were silent. Everyone's breath was condensed.

After the search, the leader asked a few questions and left with his men.

The courtyard calmed again, but Liu Yusheng's heart began to beat restlessly.
