The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1942

Chapter 1942: Chapter 967: Betrothal Gifts (Liao Chen vs. Qingfeng the Taoist Priest) (Part 2)

...

After the Dragon-Phoenix twins disappeared into thin air, the palace maids immediately reported to Wu Sixi. Wu Sixi interrogated everyone in the Pavilion and then hurriedly went to the National Master Hall.

However, since the first aid kit was not present, the passage connecting to the Operating Room was closed, and Ye Qing opened the door only to see an empty Secret Room.

Upon returning to the Imperial Palace, Gu Jiao also came to the National Master Hall as soon as she heard the news.

Since the first aid kit wasn’t here, the Dragon-Phoenix twins must have been teleported somewhere else.

"Where could they have gone?" Ye Qing asked.

Gu Jiao analyzed: "Based on the information I have, the first aid kit usually teleports to coordinates nearby, specifically two fixed ones—one is the Operating Room in the National Master Hall, and the other places might include Dark Night Island. There are also two moving coordinates—one is me, and the other used to be the Godfather, and now maybe the Dragon-Phoenix twins have been added."

Ye Qing mused: "So, it either teleports to around you few people or goes to Dark Night Island?"

Gu Jiao thought for a moment: "Not necessarily."

Known fact is that tearing space requires energy, so there’s another possibility.

It ran out of energy and dropped randomly halfway.

After hearing her thoughts, Ye Qing: "This..."

While Gu Jiao and Ye Qing planned to split up with the people from the National Master Hall to find the Dragon-Phoenix twins, Xuanyuan Qi came rushing with one cutie in each arm.

Seeing the two little ones safe, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grand Marshal." Ye Qing and Xuanyuan Qi greeted respectfully.

Xuanyuan Qi nodded: "National Master Ye."

Ye Qing: Give one of the kids to me!

Xuanyuan Qi: I’m not giving them, try taking them!

Gu Jiao received the dusty first aid kit from the driver.

Wu Sixi had already interrogated and found out that it was Zhao Yu who harbored ill intentions, wanting to harm the Dragon-Phoenix twins.

Recalling that it saved the twins once, Gu Jiao suppressed the urge to chop it into firewood.

Gu Jiao took the first aid kit to the Secret Room, connected to the Operating Room, and several people went in to check on Shangguan Yun.

Shangguan Yun was asleep.

Xiao Hen got up and glanced at the others, bowing respectfully to Xuanyuan Qi: "Uncle is also here."

"Hmm." Xuanyuan Qi nodded, holding the Dragon-Phoenix twins tightly.

Not even giving them to their father!

Alas, can’t snatch them.

Xiao Hen asked Gu Jiao and Ye Qing: "What happened just now? The Operating Room door suddenly couldn’t be pushed open."

If it couldn’t be pushed open, it meant the passage was closed; in the past, Gu Changqing hid here to heal.

Gu Jiao told Xiao Hen about the Dragon-Phoenix twins’ half-day tour of Capital City, and Xuanyuan Qi supplemented the information about them on the road.

Only then did they know the twins had landed in the hands of Liao Chen and Qingfeng the Taoist priest.

Gu Jiao pouted and muttered: "You really pick people well."

When the energy is depleted, it locates familiar aura closely, has it become a spirit?

The Dragon-Phoenix twins survived due to great fortune, had it been ordinary children, they would have fallen into Zhao Yu’s poisonous hands.

Thinking of this, Xiao Hen’s gaze turned icy: "Mother was just lamenting no chance to act against the Dong Family, Zhao Yu delivered just the right knife!"

...

That night, Xiao Hen personally went to the dungeon of the Imperial Palace to interrogate Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu couldn’t withstand the torture; with the first presses of the torturer’s clamp, he confessed loudly, crying that he was instructed by the Dong Family.

The crime of conspiracy to harm the royal family is equivalent to rebellion and is punishable by decapitation, moreover considering the targets were the most beloved royal grandchildren of the Empress.

"I am innocent, Your Majesty!"

The master of the Dong Family knelt on the solemn Jinluan Hall, full of grievances and tears!
