232. Asking for Help II

Third-person POV

"It has been more than a week but there is still no sign of Her Majesty Empress. Suspicious." Lu Ping tapped his fan with his finger.

Weisheng that was in his armor also relentlessly tapped the map that was spread out on his desk. Since Weisheng was done with his workloads for one month ahead, he could personally participate in the inspection.

Weisheng immediately passed his authority to his mother to lead the court the moment Lu Cixi arrived at the Royal Palace. Lu Cixi who has a sharp mind was aware of the severity of the incident and decided to agree with Weisheng without another word.

Together with Lu Cixi, there was the Wei family that invited Lu Cixi to pray in the temple on top of the mountain. The first scene they saw as soon as they reached their residence in Chang An was Wei Yunru's head hung on the main gate of their residence with a big billboard that wrote "Traitor" nailed on the gate.
