Chapter 804: You Su Is Missing!
Chapter 804: You Su Is Missing!
Watching the delirious Rong Si, Li Qingmu clutched his chest.
That place, it hurts so much!
After all, she was his biological mother, and no one wants to see their own mother go from being perfectly normal to becoming insane.
However, Rong Si did go mad, losing her mind because she was possessed by her inner demons.
She became delirious, foolish, and confused.
But somehow, Li Qingmu thought, maybe this isn’t entirely a bad thing.
At least, she no longer has to be obsessed with power, become cold and ruthless, and also doesn’t have to be controlled by You Su, becoming his pawn.
Suddenly, Rong Si stopped laughing, turned her head to look at Li Qingmu, raised her hand to point at him, with a slight coquettish tone in her voice: "You! Did you see my big bear?"
"Hmm?"
What big bear?
Li Qingmu was completely baffled; he had never heard that Rong Si kept a big bear?
Li Qingmu didn’t know, but the Silver Armored Soldiers leader did: "Your Highness, the big bear was the affectionate name Princess Consort Yun used for His Majesty back then!"
Hmm?
Li Qingmu was taken aback again and then looked at the pure-faced Rong Si. Was this... what she looked like in the Great Zhou Palace back then?
Was this the Princess Consort Yun of the past?
He looked at the Silver Armored Soldiers: "Are you... sure?"
"Yes, back then Princess Consort Yun was just so innocent and pure!"
The Silver Armored Soldiers said.
Li Qingmu looked up at Rong Si, seeing her spinning around; was she looking for someone?
"Are you... looking for the big bear?"
Li Qingmu stepped forward and tentatively asked.
"Yes, right, have you seen him? He’s so silly and annoying! But, I like him!"
Her voice carried the crisp sound of a young girl, like wind chimes in the summer, jingling pleasantly.
Watching his mother, now devoid of any hostility, naïve and cute, Li Qingmu had a moment where he wondered if he was dreaming.
"Uh..."
Absentmindedly, he bit his tongue, and the pain was piercing!
This was not a dream; it was real!
Rong Si... no, the former Princess Consort Yun, had returned!
Back then, Rong Si went mad due to practicing martial arts and losing her memory, becoming Princess Consort Yun. Now, after another emotional upheaval, she went mad again, and as a result, she became Princess Consort Yun again.
Is this a cycle? However, Li Qingmu prefers her as Princess Consort Yun.
Pure, kind-hearted, innocent and lively – isn’t this the kind of girl that Father Emperor liked?
The stone in his heart fell away instantly, and Li Qingmu also smiled with relief as he stepped forward, "I saw him; do you want to come with me to find him?"
"You saw him? Great, great, come on, take me to him! That big bear is so bad, always promising to take me out to play but breaking his promise every time. He’s so bad, I must beat him up this time, hmph!"
Li Qingmu smiled: "Alright, beat him up!"
It is best to humor the childlike Rong Si, rather than opposing her.
He already felt very content; Princess Consort Yun had returned, and she was eager to see the big bear. This means he can take her back to Dazhou?
He wondered what expression Father Emperor would have once he saw her? Surprise? Amazement? Doubt?
Just as Li Qingmu was pondering these thoughts, a Silver Armored Soldier suddenly ran over: "Something’s wrong, Your Highness, several from the Tianxing Pavilion, You Su, he... is missing!"
"You... what did you say?"
This news was too shocking, Zhe Feng and Broken Jade were almost about to jump up.
You Su, this person is gone?
Without a body, whether he is dead or alive is unknown, and very likely, he is still alive!
No matter if he is severely injured, as long as this person is still alive, problems will continue!
"Damn, let that bastard escape!"
Broken Jade said furiously.
"Didn’t you set up a Heaven and Earth Net around?"
Li Qingmu thought the Tianxing Pavilion was too negligent; if they were going to capture this person, they should be more careful. How did he vanish unnoticed?
"We set it up, but no one saw him; we don’t know how he disappeared?"
Li Qingmu fell silent: "This man is too cunning; as long as he lives, there will be no peace in the world!"
"Exactly, but he escaped, and for the time being, we can’t find him!"
"How about letting your youngster try?"
Zhe Feng suddenly suggested.
Li Qingmu thought for a moment; You Su must be removed no matter the cost, so he nodded: "Alright!"
Long Yue was hidden by Li Qingmu in a very secret place, mainly to protect their mother and daughter, while the youngster was tasked with checking for any dangers.
And so, Long Yue waited for her man to come back.
Honestly, her heart had been in her throat all day, worrying about him and fearing that You Su would kill him if he wasn’t careful.
Now, seeing him return alive, Long Yue was overjoyed and tearfully rushed up to hug him: "A Mu..."
Li Qingmu reached out, embraced his little wife in his arms, gently comforting her briefly, then simply spoke of the situation in Da Liang Palace.
He slightly trimmed the narrative, omitting parts unfavorable to himself, just not wanting Long Yue to worry.
But Long Yue wasn’t a fool; Li Qingmu’s martial arts weren’t as good as You Su’s, and to strike You Su’s vital point was to inevitably pay a certain price, possibly even life-for-life!
"Just a minor injury, it’s nothing."
To prevent Long Yue from overthinking, Li Qingmu hurriedly clarified the situation.
"Really?"
"Of course, really!"
Only then did Long Yue feel at ease, "Then... can we leave Daliang, return to Dazhou? I... I miss Rui’er!"
Li Qingmu was silent for a while; how could he not miss his son, and his father, Su Shi, and the rest? But they couldn’t return yet.
"You Su is missing; we may not be able to return!"
"Missing? What happened to him?"
"At that time..."
Li Qingmu explained briefly again and then looked at Long Yue, "So we’d like to use the youngster to find You Su’s whereabouts."
"Alright!"
Knowing that they could not find peace if this person wasn’t eliminated, Long Yue naturally agreed, promptly calling the youngster to check out You Su’s whereabouts.
But the youngster only gently shook his head.
"You, can’t find him?"
"Ah!"
The youngster continued shaking his head.
"This..." Broken Jade was stunned, suddenly thinking of a possibility, said joyfully, "So, does it mean he’s dead, so you can’t find him?"
The youngster remained silent, only blinking.
"Haha, I guessed right, didn’t I? Back then, he was so mad, even drawing down so much lightning, it was a death wish. Who could survive such a strike of lightning? He probably turned to ashes by now, and that’s why we didn’t find him, hehe!"
Broken Jade touched the back of his head, carefree, but Li Qingmu frowned, somehow feeling that things were not so simple.
You Su was so insidious and cunning; how wouldn’t he leave a backdoor?
Did he really just die like that?
But since even the youngster couldn’t sense his whereabouts, perhaps, he is dead.
"With You Su dead, there’s nothing more to worry about. Mother has become Princess Consort Yun, so we can take her back!"
Li Qingmu said lightly, feeling a bit relieved; this trip to Daliang was finally coming to an end!
