Chapter 1721: Chapter 1721: News about my dad?

He thought for a long time before he finally made his decision.

"Yes, Prince Mo," Zhe Jue replied.

The matter was of great importance, one that Prince Mo couldn’t wait even a moment longer to investigate personally, but it seemed only right to do so.

...

When Lin Caisang returned to Prince Mo’s Mansion two days later, she was completely stunned by Zhe Jue’s words.

"Zhe Jue, are you serious? Is there really news of my father?" she asked.

"Yes, Miss Lin, the information came from Nine Lotus Hall, it shouldn’t be mistaken," Zhe Jue responded.

"Prince Mo has already set off; do you want to leave with me right now?"

he asked.

"Alright... wait a moment," she said.

Just as she was about to agree, something occurred to Lin Caisang, and she looked at him.

"Zhe Jue, go and pack our belongings. We will set out in an hour and travel on horseback rather than by carriage," she instructed.

"Understood, Miss Lin, I will make the preparations immediately," Zhe Jue said.

After Zhe Jue left, Lin Caisang made a trip back to Ya Village.

She didn’t dare to share the news about her father with her family, fearing that it might just be a mistake from Nine Lotus Hall.

Moreover, her mother’s health wouldn’t allow for such overwhelming joy or sorrow. It would be best to wait until she could actually bring her father before Grandpa, Grandma, her mother, and her older brother.

But she didn’t know how many days this trip would take, and now that her mission was complete, she could not possibly visit Ya Village daily.

Of course, she had to inform her family before leaving.

After making arrangements with her family and explaining that she was leaving with Sui Zimo, she set off with Zhe Jue from Prince Mo’s Mansion.

The girl donning a mask mounted her horse and departed from Prince Mo’s Mansion, heading towards the city gates. Many people witnessed her departure, and the news quickly reached the palace, informing the Emperor that Sui Zimo had brought the female physician back once again.

...

"Hmph, I knew it, that rascal is nothing but trouble!" the Emperor said, grinding his teeth as he threw the memorial on the desk and looked at Eunuch Gui who had come to report.

"Is she in Prince Mo’s Mansion now?" he asked.

"Your Majesty, she didn’t enter Prince Mo’s Mansion. Instead, she left from there. By now, she’s probably already left the city, heading in the direction of Deer Commandery," Eunuch Gui replied.

"Deer City?" the Emperor frowned, wasn’t that the way to Liang Kingdom?

Did the female physician want to return to Liang Kingdom? How could he possibly allow that?

"Immediately send someone to intercept the female physician and escort her to the palace!" he ordered Eunuch Gui.

"But..."

Eunuch Gui looked up unusually at the Emperor upon hearing his command.

Escort?

What kind of escort? It was clearly the Emperor’s intention to bundle the female physician off to the palace! This was practically like a kidnapping!

"Your Majesty, the female physician is a citizen of Liang Kingdom. Keeping her in the palace might not be appropriate," he tentatively suggested.

"What’s inappropriate about it!"

The Emperor wasn’t concerned with the niceties; he had finally obtained word on the whereabouts of the female physician, and if he didn’t seize this chance to keep her, when would he get another opportunity?

"I am the sovereign; if the female physician has entered Wei State, then she must obey my orders!" he declared.

"But Your Majesty, the female physician possesses a Death Exemption Token personally bestowed by the Emperor of Liang, and moreover, weren’t you planning to exchange her for the Commandery Princess of Liang Kingdom? If you offend her now, and she refuses to agree to this, what will you do?" Eunuch Gui inquired.

"This..."

At these words, the Emperor hesitated.

Damn it, if he had known he could catch the female physician so easily, why in the world would he have been foolish enough to propose any marriage alliance with Liang Kingdom?
