In my dream of returning to the Tang Dynasty, I snatched Wu Zetian from my lap.

Even before the Xueyantuo War began, he had warned his two brothers in Youzhou to find the whereabouts of Wu Meiniang and her family of four and to report to the Prince of Han's mansion regularly.

This is the premise for sparing their lives.

In reality, they only went there once, and after Li Yuanchang faked his death, the two disappeared without a trace.

This is just playing Li Yuanchang for a fool!

"Where?"

"Your Highness, the Black Ice Guard has detected that these two are in Chang'an. They have been seen at the Begonia Manor more than once."

"Arrest him immediately!" Li Yuanchang ordered decisively.

Guo Chao looked troubled: "Your Highness, the Begonia Manor is a villa purchased by the Prince of Jin."

Li Yuanchang frowned: "The Prince of Jin?"

Guo Chao nodded: "The Black Ice Guards went to stake out the place as soon as they discovered it, but there are quite a few guards at the manor, so they investigated it again and again just in case."

"The person behind it all is none other than the Prince of Jin, who lives in the palace."

"I've heard that the Prince of Jin occasionally goes to his villa to listen to music."

Li Yuanchang frowned and paced back and forth a few steps.

How did those two bastards end up with Li Zhi?

These are people who have absolutely no connection whatsoever!

Thinking of this, Li Yuanchang suddenly felt a jolt in his heart, as if he had just realized something.

Historically, Wu Zetian and Li Zhi were a couple. If it weren't for his interference, they probably would have known each other in the palace by now, based on the timeline.

Moreover, Wu Zetian's elusive appearances in Chang'an were not uncommon.

"Grass!"

Li Yuanchang cursed loudly, then grabbed Guo Chao.

"You, you immediately lead a team to lie in wait outside the Begonia Manor. By any means necessary, without alerting those above, capture these two bastards for me!"

"Immediately!"

Guo Chao was startled. He knew Li Yuanchang was unhappy, but he didn't expect Li Yuanchang to be this unhappy.

This was even the first time he felt that Li Yuanchang was jumping up and down.

"yes!"

After the person left, Li Yuanchang was still in a bad mood and stood there for a long time, unable to come back to his senses. His face was also not good.

Does history, despite its many twists and turns, ultimately lead back to the same point?

He might say he hopes Wu Zetian will be safe and sound, but if any man gets close to her, Li Yuanchang is still furious!

"..."

At the Han Prince's residence, together with the entire secret force of the Black Ice Guard, they finally managed to capture the person without alerting the high-ranking officials of Chang'an or the Prince of Jin.

Late that night, many lanterns were lit up in the Prince of Han's mansion.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Cui Wanqing covered her chest with one hand, her long hair falling on her skin, looking somewhat puzzled.

Li Yuanchang dressed himself extremely quickly.

Then he kissed Cui Wanqing's upper chest and pinched her cheek.

"Go to sleep first, I have important matters to attend to."

"Your Highness, I am waiting for you."

Li Yuanchang nodded, and couldn't resist giving Cui Wanqing's thigh a hard pinch again. Fair-skinned women are really beautiful.

Boom!

At that moment, a heavy rain began to fall.

Under the pouring rain, Li Yuanchang strode forward with a large number of personal guards behind him, arriving at a secluded woodshed.

The sound of hurried footsteps grew closer, and Wu Yuanqing and his companion, who were locked inside, trembled with panic.

"Who, who are you?"

boom! !

With a loud bang, Wu Yuanqing and his companion were sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground with screams and even vomiting up their dinner.

"Drag him up!" Li Yuanchang hissed.

"yes!"

The guards dragged the two brothers up and then removed their black hoods.

The two men looked pained, pale, and terrified, but their fear intensified when they saw Li Yuanchang's angular face, which resembled that of the Grim Reaper.

"Han, the King of Han..."

"Heh, you still recognize me? I thought you two had both forgotten me." Li Yuanchang sneered, extending his hand, and Guo Chao handed him a dagger.

"No, no!" the two screamed frantically, backing away.

"Do you remember what I warned you about?" Li Yuanchang said coldly.

"King Han, you remember, you remember!"

"But when news of your death in battle broke, it wasn't our fault!"

"King Han, don't act rashly!"

"We are now the Prince of Jin's men. If you kill us, the Prince of Jin will definitely investigate!" the two wailed.

Li Yuanchang scoffed, "Prince Jin? What's wrong with Prince Jin? Do you think he can control me?"

boom!

A flash of lightning froze the two people's terrified faces.

The two realized that Li Yuanchang was no longer the Li Yuanchang they knew.

"No, no!"

"King Han, I don't want to die!"

"We were just following our sister's orders!"

Li Yuanchang paused, his eyes narrowing: "What do you mean? That younger sister?"

"Yes, yes, yes!!"

"Meiniang, it was Meiniang who told us to do this!"

"We've found her!" Wu Yuanqing and his companion shouted, realizing what had happened and grasping at a straw.

"Where is she?" Li Yuanchang asked in a deep voice, his heart pounding wildly.

Although some news has been circulating, it is ultimately just speculation.

"We don't know her exact whereabouts right now, but she'll contact us. Our trip to the Begonia Manor was arranged by her!"

"She's incredibly powerful now! She's the owner of Baiweifang, the largest business in the North. The entire Song family listens to her, and she knows many important people!"

Upon hearing this, the entire room trembled!

Guo Chao and the others who had seen Wu Zetian all widened their eyes. Wasn't the Northern Song Dynasty the one that competed with the Han Prince's Mansion for business?

That's how the Northern Song and Southern Qin dynasties came about!

It wasn't until this moment that Li Yuanchang learned the truth: the person behind all this time, whom he had been dealing with remotely for so long, was actually her!

He was somewhat incredulous...

"Then how did you end up at the Begonia Villa?"

"And what is your relationship with the Prince of Jin?"

Out of fear, Wu Yuanqing blurted out everything: "The Prince of Jin and my sister have a close relationship."

Li Yuanchang's face immediately turned black.

boom!

He grabbed Wu Yuanqing by the neck and lifted him up: "What do you mean by 'close ties'?"

"Cough...cough cough..."

Wu Yuanqing's face flushed red, and he couldn't breathe: "King Han, I don't know, I don't know!"

"My sister is something else now. We don't dare to ask her anything. After she appeared this time, she's like a completely different person."

Upon hearing the last sentence, Li Yuanchang felt inexplicably distressed.

boom!

Just as he was about to strangle him, Li Yuanchang finally let go.

boom!

Wu Yuanqing fell to the ground, coughed violently, and almost fainted.

"Since you two have been coming and going from the manor, you must have done something?" Li Yuanchang asked coldly again.

"It was my sister who sent us. We're currently in charge of affairs at the Prince of Jin's residence, and sometimes we deliver letters on his behalf. We really don't know anything else, and we dare not ask!"

"Our disappearance was at my sister's behest; she forbade us from revealing her whereabouts to His Highness."

As he spoke, Wu Yuanqing showed his hand in an attempt to prove himself.

He and Wu Yuanshuang both only have eight fingers left, but Li Yuanchang only cut off one of their fingers back then.

"This was done by someone my sister had chopped!" the two said, on the verge of tears.

They encountered one ruthless person, then another; the former husband and wife were both increasingly vicious.
