Two days later.
"Did someone send a message?" Jiang Yan asked when he saw Meng Xing arrive in the palace.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Meng Xing answered and nodded before he took out a letter and handed it to Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan received it and read it. Then, his tense expression disappeared. Meng Xing saw Jiang Yan's expression and inwardly sighed in relief. That letter was actually from someone he entrusted the empress dowager to look after as the empress dowager was taken by her abductors to the Hangmen to use as a hostage against Jiang Yan. Of course, to not let the empress dowager discover where the Hangmen's (main) base is, her abductors where one of them was her attendant, took detours. In the letter, it was said that the empress dowager and her abductors were now near the Fa Duan Kingdom.
"Do we save Her Majesty now, or…" Meng Xing spoke but didn't continue since he knew that Jiang Yan could understand what he wanted to ask.
