Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace, Li Yun received a report from a Hidden Guard.
He sat upon the dragon throne, his head still lowered as he reviewed his memorials. "Has he arrived safely in Shangjing? And has he seen the Empress?"
"Eldest Young Master Ming went to Ming's Restaurant. I personally witnessed him leave the restaurant with the Empress, so I did not continue to follow and returned to report."
Li Yun hummed in acknowledgment. "You escorted him from the south all the way to the Capital City. It's been a long journey, so go and get some rest." As he spoke, Li Yun gave a slight wave of his hand, and the Hidden Guard who had been kneeling on the floor vanished without a trace.
Finding Ming Chengyu had, of course, been arranged by Li Yun.
While Yu Yi and Yanxia had also found some help, their helpers paled in comparison to Li Yun's agents.
