Qi Wuya had not caught Han Mo.
Because once out of the Imperial City, there were several roads, and it was impossible to know which one he had chosen.
He went to ask the soldiers guarding the city, but, in the cold weather, they too were negligent and had not paid attention.
Qi Wuya was very angry, and the consequences were severe.
He dealt strictly with a few of the city-guarding soldiers, then dispatched several teams to intercept the escapee, splitting them onto multiple routes.
He did not go himself, but instead rode back to the Imperial Palace.
Beiqi Palace
Taian Palace
Inside the palace, an earth dragon furnace burned, warming everything, but Qi Wuya felt cold inside—Han Mo had actually left without saying goodbye. They had supported each other along the way, and after he ascended to the throne, he gave Han Mo the greatest respect and power, yet Han Mo just cast it aside and quit!
How preposterous!
