"The carriage that returned Prince De vanished after leaving the city. I sent people to investigate, but they found nothing."
"Damn it!" the old Emperor cursed as he slammed the memorial in his hands on the table.
"What about Prince De? Does he not know anything either?" he asked.
Others might not know what had happened, but Prince De would, right? He was a living being. How could he not know who had kidnapped him?
"Prince De seems to have been… beaten up. He's only shouting for revenge now, but when we ask him who did it, he has no idea."
Eunuch Zheng looked at the old Emperor weakly.
Everyone knew that Prince De was the Emperor's favorite prince. Not only was he kidnapped, but he was also beaten up.
This was a direct provocation to the Emperor. If he could recognize that, so could the Emperor.
