Shao Youyue obviously didn’t know either, but her third brother had already informed her of what he knew, so she naturally had to reply. She asked Xia Han and the others to prepare some ink and paper, and she began to reply. Naturally, she replied truthfully, saying that she didn’t know either.

She didn’t even know that the Empress Dowager had left the palace again.

At the same time, on the other side, at Empress Dowager Yunzi’s side.

Empress Dowager Yunzi sat in a restaurant, preparing to have lunch.

Hui Xiang stood beside her and waited on her.

She had originally wanted to follow the line from the Imperial Capital to Xinyuan County to find the person who had written to her with her father’s handwriting. Unexpectedly, as she searched, she suddenly realized that there was a group of people who were also looking for her.

Not long after, she discovered that another group of people was also looking for someone.

There were only two groups of people who were also looking for people on this line. They were also very secretive about it, which was very different from her. Other than concealing her identity, she only inquired about people who were good at calligraphy and were very good at other people’s handwriting directly. She didn’t handle her matters secretly.

Obviously, these two groups of people were definitely not the same person she was looking for.

She had people follow these two groups of people, but she did not find out the identities of these two groups of people. She only found that these two groups of people were asking around if anyone had seven or eight-year-old boys in their family.

Empress Dowager Yunzi was an intelligent person. She immediately understood that this was all about her grandson, Emperor Shu. So, her missing grandson, Emperor Shu, was around here?

This was too much of a coincidence. She had come here to look for something else and coincidentally encountered this incident.

In the past, she didn’t know where her grandson was and couldn’t find him. Now that she knew, she naturally wouldn’t sit idly by. She also sent some people to secretly search for him.

At first, it seemed that a group of people had discovered her, but they did not send anyone to follow her. When they saw her, they immediately left. It seemed that they did not have any ill intentions towards her.

Today, she was targeted by two people again. At this moment, those two people were hiding outside the restaurant. They had been following her since morning. It had been a few days since the previous group of people discovered her. If they were from that group, they would definitely not be watching her now. It was obvious that they were not with the previous group of people. Although she didn’t feel any malice, she didn’t feel any kindness either.

Besides, she didn’t like being stared at.

It had already been an entire morning, yet those strangers were still watching her…

Empress Dowager Yunzi lowered her eyes slightly to hide the cold light in her eyes. She picked up a glass of wine on the table and drank it before instructing in a low voice, “I want him alive.”

She wanted to see who had the guts to follow her.

“Yes.” Hui Xiang replied softly before giving a look to the Empress Dowager’s men not far away.

Not long after, the two people who were hiding outside the restaurant were suddenly surrounded from all sides. They wanted to escape, but they couldn’t. However, they knew that they couldn’t be captured alive. Therefore, while they resisted others from capturing them, they grabbed a small paper bag from their clothes and swallowed the powder in the small paper bag. Immediately, they spat out white foam at the mouth and passed away.

Empress Dowager Yunzi’s expression was ugly when she heard the news. They were known as death warriors.

Since they were so afraid of being caught alive, it was obvious that they knew a lot of things that she should not know.

These two men had been watching her since the morning. They obviously knew her identity. It was impossible that there were only the two of them. If there were only the two of them, one of them would have gone back to report to their master. They wouldn’t be watching her here.

Even if the masters of these two people did not know that she was here yet, they would know soon enough.

On the night of the 16th of November, Consort Yi saw that Emperor Hao had gone to the other concubines’ place and would rest at the other concubines’ place tonight, so she secretly left the palace..
