Therefore, Emperor Huo Yu Yuan would not be able to make a decision for his son's life carelessly and hastily before he investigated the matter that still stuck in his heart and mind at present. Against the little girl who looked so pure and innocent in front of him.


Even though she knew that the girl was one of the daughters of her best friend. But when he realized the reaction shown by the friend when in the Palace Banquet Hall earlier, he had caught something wrong.


So Emperor Huo Yu Yuan decided to find out the truth first about the Generals youngest daughter.


"All right, you better be right back. Zhen will think about this." Emperor Huo Yu Yuan said firmly.


So that made the Prince Huo Lin Jin who still wanted to ensure the decision to be taken by his Emperor father was muffled in his heart.


"Okay Ayahanda, Son please leave," said Prince Huo Lin Jin respectfully.


"Ananda beg the Emperor's father's resignation" said Prince Huo Lin Dan sincerely.


"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor. I beg you to resign" said Shen Sie Mei almost simultaneously with the two Princes.


Emperor Huo Yu Yuan, who was listening to them, just waved his hand in response.


And the three of them immediately left the room in a hurry.


After Emperor Huo Yu Yuan confirmed that the three had left, he immediately called his personal bodyguard who had been accompanying him wherever he went, and always dispelled the danger that was running through him.


"Cheng Li!" call Emperor Huo Yu Yuan to his personal bodyguard Xiu Cheng Li.


"Hamba was facing His Majesty the Emperor" Xiu Cheng Li said immediately after he bowed and knelt before his master.


"Let's stand up, you're old, won't your old knee be fine when you keep kneeling on that cold floor?" the Emperor Huo Yu Yuan glanced at the loyal man.


"The old servant will always feel more honored when this old servant can bow down and carry out the command His Majesty the Emperor gave to the Servant" Xiu Cheng Li's Guards said firmly.


"All right, I also know what you are. I'm not able to prevent you anymore." said Emperor Huo Yu Yuan casually when he was only in the room with his loyal people such as the Guard Xiu Cheng Li and Eunuch Bao.


"Are there any orders that you should do Your Majesty? asked the guard to ask his Master's needs to call him.


"Well you have always been sensitive to me, Go investigate thoroughly about the girl" Emperor Huo Yu Yuan said flatly.


"Regarding the third Young Miss of the General's residence, actually this old servant has deployed the servants to investigate it and this is the result they obtained Your Majesty," The bodyguard Xiu Cheng Li replied as he deployed a report from inside his pocket in his shirt.


Emperor Huo Yu Yuan frowned. He was completely satisfied with the performance of his bodyguard. Who knows since when he has the same thoughts as himself, so he can guess what he wants to do.


It is very efficient and also beneficial to have a bodyguard who is always alert and sensitive like Xiu Cheng Li who has always accompanied him since childhood with Eunuch Bao Yang also grew up together. and there's even been a lot of things that they've been going through together for almost half a century.


"You have always been the best, I will never doubt you Cheng Li. Even you and Old Bao are like duplicates of me. You have always been able to understand and understand my thoughts all this time," praised Emperor Huo Yu Yuan on the performance of the Guard Xiu Cheng Li and also Eunuch Bao who had been serving him.


Then after that Emperor Huo Yu Yuan immediately shifted his focus to the report that his personal bodyguard had just given him.


"Even Guo Feng had given up on the little girl. But how could it be that just overnight the little girl could return from that remote mountain range. And what about his appearance? doesn't he look like a man who has been persecuted and shaved his hair? What big secret did the little girl have behind her? But whatever it is definitely not something good if the girl becomes a member of her Wuxi Empire family." muttered Emperor Huo Yu Yuan.


The current thought of Emperor Huo Yu Yuan, was filled with questions that he could not even guess the answer to.


"What do you think of that little girl? asked Emperor Huo Yu Yuan to Xiu Cheng Li's Guards and Eunuch Bao who had been there.


While submitting the report to the loyal Eunuch. The Emperor also looked at them one by one.


"In reply to Your Majesty, I don't think this girl is as simple as she looks. Even from his appearance alone it already seemed very unreasonable at all. But unfortunately, from the observation of the Servant, it is completely original body. But it would not be possible if at such a young age the girl had such an adult appearance. If the girl did not use magic, it would be very difficult for one to have even the slightest flawless beauty like that," said the Guardsman Xiu Cheng Li who did have a guess if the girl could magic or at least have magic objects that she could use.


"Hamba thought that what Li's bodyguard said was true, Your Majesty, because from the beginning I watched the movements of this Shen girl showed that she was hiding something. so that his hands always clenched tightly as if grasping an object that makes this old servant feel very suspicious." continued Sang Kasim Bao who is also experienced in dealing with magic.


Because after all he also often followed Emperor Huo Yu Yuan before being crowned as an Emperor to travel missions to the Bai Jiang area which borders directly with the forbidden area of Nanjiang city famously inhabited by witches and their entire descendants.


Which people from the city of Nanjiang is very difficult to find in other areas. It was just that there was little for the Nanjiang residents to wander around Bai Jiang just to conduct basic necessities trading business and also supply cloth to their Nanjiang territory.


And often they witnessed the residents of Nanjiang showing off the abilities they had when they felt offended or harmed by the other party.


Because for the Nanjiang witches, they did not have to come into direct contact in order to harm others. Just using the magic they mastered was enough for a native from Nanjiang to shake the entire city to live in fear and panic.


"Well, what you're saying, makes sense. I myself think the same. But if that is the truth, how little girls like her have that kind of thing, where and who the target is we should all be wary about this. I will talk to Guo Feng to discuss this" said Emperor Huo Yu Yuan who also did not deny the opinions of the two people who had been loyal to him all this time.


"And better we also immediately follow to the dining hall, and start for lunch together.


...****************...


Turning from the side of Emperor Huo Yu Yuan who was discussing serious matters with his subordinates.


Currently in a room that is very terrible and also humid Tempak there is a woman who is roaring since she realized from her stupor.


"Take me off, get me out of here!! Quickly open the door and let me meet my son, are you all deaf? How dare you not heed the words of this Emperor Empress. You want to die, right?! "chanting The Former Empress Xiao Mu Wen is hysterical. While continuing to hope if his son and also his lover Grand Prince Huo Sun Yao to come and release him.


In addition, the middle-aged woman who always claimed to be an Emperor Empress also still acted very badly in prison.


Xiao Mu Wen did not even hesitate to injure the guard or the servant who sent him food.


Even he grew hysterical when he recalled that his entire cultivation had been destroyed by people.


Because as he remembered when he woke up in a pitch-black prison last night he realized that all his cultivation had been lost. and that he can feel that his dantian is currently experiencing a very serious injury.


And from that moment also he felt very surprised and frightened by the reality he was experiencing at this time.


So from the moment he realized until the morning he was really raging like crazy.


But he also experienced a strange thing for himself, because suddenly his attitude immediately changed like an Emperor Empress who was very calm and also powerful.


It was as if nothing bad had happened to him.


He was even very excited when he entered the Palace Banquet Hall for the opening ceremony of the Flower Festival Celebration.


He also did not know why if all his actions, expressions and every speech he said had been controlled by others who he did not know at all.


Until he fainted in the banquet room and again realized already in the same prison with a place to lock himself back.


And even more sad that his son and his loved ones all this time, none of them came to him in this prison.


This made the woman even more disappointed and very sad. So bad thoughts haunt him.


"Lack of Ajar, damn all of you. Quickly get me out of here. Or will I kill all of you," cried Xiao Mu Wen former Empress Huo Yu Yuan very loudly.


He had even pelted the prison guards with plates, glasses and anything the servants had delivered him.


"Hey stop, Madam. Keep your energy well, before you are executed in front of all the people of Wuxi." said one of the guards who was hit by throwing a glass from the woman who was crazy.


"What did you say? I will never die, much less that I and my son will soon rule this entire country. And if that time comes then you will be the first one I execute with your entire family even your son will not let go..!! hahaha," cried the Ex-Empress with a bitter laugh but it was not known that it was laughing out of happiness or despair.


"Never dream in broad daylight like this mistress. That's not good..!!" the other guard.


"Silence..!!! shut your mouth and remember I am the Empress of this Wuxi Empire, and not your mistress. You are indeed lowly slaves. Just look at it later, I will make sure that His Majesty the Emperor will definitely punish you severely.


"Haihhh, what's wrong with you, your job is to keep this cell alone and not to respond to people like him. soon too will soon die so just let himself fantasize as he pleases." said a middle-aged man whose body is tall and well-built, in addition, his stature is so fit and more classy clothes compared to the two guards of the former Imperial Empress's prison cell.


And that person was a senior bodyguard who served as the chief warden of this Wuxi Empire dungeon.


"Ahh Master, forgive the commotion we have made. But what was the matter why Master Chu Hong came to this place personally? ask one of the guards guarding the holding cell.


"I'm just making sure this prisoner doesn't try to escape or commit suicide. Because he has not redeemed all his evil deeds so far against the people, so I will not be able to disappoint His Majesty let alone to the point of not taking good care of him." sahut that person was called as Mr. Chu Hong.


"Master need not worry, the two of us will always carry out our duties well, and will not let the cruel woman escape our watch.
