Chapter 1030: Chapter 1028: Empress Dowager of Beiyan Gravely Ill

Something has happened!

Ah Jiu’s heart suddenly tightened, his hands tightly gripping the reins, looking down from above at Yuan Ye who was kneeling on the ground: "Speak."

Yuan Ye’s heart trembled, he raised his head and said: "Master, the Old Madam is gravely ill, please return quickly."

The Old Madam is gravely ill.

Who is this Old Madam?

The Old Madam of Ah Jiu’s family, besides the lofty and most noble woman in the world—the Empress Dowager of Beiyan, who else?

Ah Jiu’s eyes immediately turned red, a chilling aura emanated from him, not to mention the people around him, even the horse underneath was uneasily pawing its hooves.

Wufu spurred his horse forward, thought for a moment, and patted Ah Jiu’s hand: "Don’t daze, let’s talk about it back home."

Seeing Wufu’s calm and dark eyes, Ah Jiu forced down the unease in his heart and nodded: "Let’s go."

He was the first to swing the whip, the horse shot forward like an arrow and disappeared from view in an instant.

Wufu hurriedly followed, not forgetting to instruct the people behind: "Follow by yourselves." Saying this, he quickly chased after Ah Jiu.

Whether it was a suppressed anger or frustration or something else, Ah Jiu didn’t rest for a moment along the way. When he didn’t rest, naturally his men wouldn’t rest either.

Just like this, they returned to the mansion in Changan City by afternoon, cutting the time in half.

Ah Jiu entered the study, and Yuan Ye and Yi Er went to report.

Wufu stood at the door, not entering, and solemnly instructed Xiao Li: "Go prepare, pack immediately what needs to be packed, leave the cumbersome stuff for later, prepare the simplest luggage, ready to set off for Beiyan at any time."

Xiao Li nodded.

"Chi Yi, you also go, plan the safest and quickest route, prepare the horses and dry food, two of everything. Also, gather the guards who should come back with us, ready to follow orders. The most important thing, clear all obstacles on the road immediately, be it people or matters." Wufu looked at Chi Yi: "How to allocate manpower and what to do, I don’t need to say."

"Yes."

Chi Yi understood her meaning, now is not the time to admire her decisiveness, turned around and led several Chi to make arrangements.

Wufu glanced at the study door, sighed slightly, and waved to Purple Jade who came upon hearing the news.

"Miss, what has happened?" Purple Jade had just returned from outside, seeing the tense atmosphere in the mansion, she couldn’t help but feel tight inside.

Wufu lowered her voice and said: "The Empress Dowager of Beiyan is gravely ill."

Purple Jade’s eyes widened, her face turned pale.

"Ah Jiu will surely return immediately. These are not for us to worry about, arrangements will be made; you go and prepare some food, just returned and still have an empty stomach." Wufu instructed.

"Yes, Miss." Purple Jade knelt and saluted, saying: "I will go prepare right away."

Wufu nodded.

Inside the study, the double doors were tightly closed, Wufu leaned against the pillar, looking at the slightly gloomy sky, her heart also felt a bit heavy.

The Empress Dowager of Beiyan, after all, is Ah Jiu’s own mother. This time she’s gravely ill, who knows if there’s some hidden reason; if it’s a natural illness that would be good, if not, then Beiyan might be plunged into chaos once again.

From the room behind came the sound of things being smashed to the ground, she couldn’t help but sigh.

The door opened, Wufu turned around, only to see Ah Jiu standing behind the desk, Yuan Ye and Yi Er were about to come out, hurriedly standing straight.

Ah Jiu saw it, met her gaze, there was a hint of pain and vulnerability in his eyes, and Wufu couldn’t help but walk over.
