Sang Kun still hadn't received news of his son and thus replied in a particularly soft voice, "To answer Your Majesty, there is still no news for the time being."
He Ying was somewhat disappointed, but did not show any signs of blame; instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Then what brings you here?"
"Having heard that the Empress's identity is in doubt, Your Majesty, my poor daughter..."
Sang Kun's face showed worry as he cautiously asked, "Where is she now?"
He Ying also wanted to know where Sang Yan was.
But he still knew too little.
It wouldn't be convenient to say that she might have been taken to Beiqi.
Perhaps he had been impulsive after all, not to have blamed Qing Wu and leaked the news that the Empress was an imposter.
When Sang Yan came back, after disappearing twice, she would likely face even more criticism.
But what had been spread had been spread; there was no need for regret now.
The important thing now was to recuperate.
