Chapter 1952: Heading to the Black Clouds Kingdom
“Okay, go!” The Crown Prince nodded slightly.
After the secret guard left, his hands were clenched into fists. Then, he slowly loosened them, and his palms were covered in cold sweat.
..
From Taoyuan Village to the Black Clouds Kingdom, they had to pa.s.s through the northern part of the city.
On the way, Lin Yuelan and her group travelled together with the Emperor. When they reached a fork in the road, Lin Yuelan went to Ji Bei City, while the Emperor and Jiang Zhennan went to the capital.
At this moment, Jiang Zhennan had disguised himself as the Emperor’s secret guard, Wu Ming.
As for Wu Ming himself, he had transformed into another ident.i.ty and followed the Emperor to protect him.
As for the person who disguised himself as Jiang Zhennan, it was a personal guard who knew Jiang Zhennan better and had a similar figure.
Lin Yuelan led her subordinates and guards to stay in Ji Bei City for the time being, waiting for the Emperor’s guards to arrive.
As soon as the Emperor returned to the palace, he couldn’t wait to give an order. He sent a team of 2,000 people to escort the Princess of the Guguo to the Black Clouds Kingdom to treat the Emperor of the Black Clouds Kingdom.
The captain was Wu Ming, a guard of the Emperor.
The Emperor’s order caused many of the courtiers to be dissatisfied, but no one dared to oppose it.
The princess of Guguo going to Black Clouds Kingdom was like a sheep entering a tiger’s den. Moreover, she had sent so many elite guards to send her off. He was a little worried that she would never return.
Moreover, the princess of the Guguo was pregnant, and it was inconvenient for her to go to the Black Cloud Kingdom. It was simply too dangerous.
Some people agreed. After all, the reputation and prestige of the entire Longyan Kingdom were more important than the princess of Guguo. They could not let the entire world laugh at the imperial city of Longyan Kingdom just because the princess of Guguo had broken her promise.
The Crown Prince finally understood why the Emperor had suddenly returned.
In the royal study, the Crown Prince said,” Father, Princess Gu’s body is not in good condition. It’s too dangerous for her to go to the Black Clouds Kingdom!”
His expression was full of worry and confusion.
“So what if the world accuses Princess Gu? With her current state, do you really want her to disregard the danger and go to the Black Clouds Kingdom to treat the Emperor of the Black Clouds Kingdom?” Speaking of this, the Crown Prince was really furious.” As for that captured a.s.sa.s.sin, who knows if it’s real or fake?”
The Emperor looked at the Crown Prince, filled with worry and indignation. He sighed and said,” Crown Prince, how could I not know? However, the princess of Guguo had already made up her mind to leave, and no one could change that. Therefore, I can only do my best to protect them.”
The Crown Prince asked doubtfully,” Imperial Father, does she really have to go?”
The Emperor nodded.
The Crown Prince said worriedly,” This journey may be fraught with danger. Even if Princess Gu is highly skilled in martial arts and has superb medical skills, she won’t be able to display them. The status of the Defender General is inconvenient, and she can’t go. This is really difficult for Princess Gu!”
The Emperor smiled and said,” The Great General can’t go, but the little girl’s master will go with her all the way to the Black Clouds Kingdom!”
“Master of the Guguo Princess?” The Crown Prince was a little confused for a moment, but he quickly reacted and asked,” Father, are you talking about the divine doctor Wu Yazi?”
“That’s right!” The Emperor nodded.” It’s the divine doctor Wu Yazi! Miracle Doctor Wu Yazi’s medical skills are superb, and he is one of the top experts in the martial arts world! With him protecting the girl along the way, the few of us old fellows can be at ease.”
The less people knew that Wu Ming was Jiang Zhennan, the safer Lin Yuelan and the others would be.
When the Crown Prince heard this, his expression relaxed slightly. He nodded and said,” That’s good! With her master accompanying her and two thousand elite guards escorting her, the princess should be safer!”
The Emperor nodded and said,” Yes.”
Then, he waved his hand and said,” Crown Prince, I’m tired. You may leave first!”
“Yes, sir!” The Crown Prince replied respectfully.
After leading the Crown Prince out, Eunuch Zhang stepped forward to ma.s.sage the Emperor’s shoulders and said,” Your Majesty, don’t worry. The princess is a capable person. She will be fine. Moreover, with the great general and the divine doctor by her side, nothing will happen to the princess.”
When the Crown Prince, who was standing in front of the door to the royal study, heard the word ” Great General,” his pupils suddenly constricted, and a dark light flashed across his eyes.
..
The 2,000 guards were the elites of the Imperial Guards. Then, under the leadership of Captain Wu Ming, they arrived at Ji Beii City in a day’s time to meet up with Lin Yuelan and the others.
“Greetings to the princess of the Guguo.”
Upon seeing Lin Yuelan, the guards, led by the captain, greeted her.
“Stand up!” Lin Yuelan, who had a big belly, got up with the help of a servant girl.
The captain stood up and said to Lin Yuelan respectfully,” We are here to escort the princess of Guguo to the Black Clouds Kingdom!”
