Chapter 1502: Chapter 1499 Tracking

Besides sleeping and eating each day, when awake, Ye Muyu tends to be a bit clingy, needing company, and often calls Chu Ziluo over; the relationship between the siblings is quite good.

“Mother, when will Ms. Huo and the others be back?” Chu Ziluo asked worriedly.

Nowadays, the officials in the entire capital are wary of involvement and none are willing to meddle in this case.

Even the Elder Princess has chosen to avoid conflict, let alone the other officials.

Moreover, the Huo family has been in the capital for a short time and has not established any connections, making it impossible to find anyone who can help at this time.

Chu Ziluo is concerned about the poor environment of the prison, as the Old Madame Huo is already in poor health and Huo Hongyan is a woman. If they are bullied… they can only suffer in silence.

Ye Muyu rubbed her head: “Don’t worry, they won’t be mistreated in prison. However, until this case is resolved, they probably won’t be able to return.”

“Shall I send a message to Madam Huo of the Huo family?” Chu Ziluo solicited Ye Muyu’s opinion.

“Up to you.” Ye Muyu doesn’t restrict her actions much; Chu Ziluo has always been well-behaved and never acts recklessly, which is why Ye Muyu feels reassured.

Chu Ziluo thought it over and made a choice: “Mother, I’ll have someone send a message to Madam Huo, at least to make them more at ease at the residence. I can’t do much more, and ensuring Granny Huo and Ms. Huo are safe is the only thing I can manage.”

“Okay.” Ye Muyu pinched her ear, observing her daughter’s kindness without opposing it, as this is naturally Chu Ziluo’s character.

Not to mention, upon receiving the news, Madam Huo burst into tears, but at least things didn’t get further out of control.

Meanwhile, the information came back from those who were deliberately creating confusion.

Lu Chuan personally came in to report.

Meeting Su Mei who came out to greet him, he instinctively placed his hand behind his back. Su Mei noticed this involuntary gesture, surprise flashing in her eyes, but she said nothing further and directed him: “Follow me inside.”

Lu Chuan nodded.

Once inside, Ye Muyu came over shortly, having been delayed while changing Nuanbao’s diaper.

Adjusting her attire and sitting up straight, Ye Muyu looked at Lu Chuan and said: “Go ahead, what did you find out?”

“Madam, my subordinates discovered those individuals are not ordinary thugs.” Lu Chuan’s expression was serious; it had already been puzzling why that lean, sharp-tongued man was so tight-lipped, and it turns out he was trained, which explains the difficulty in extracting information from him.

“There are about a hundred of them, blending in North City; the opposition is quite structured, posing as escort masters in the capital, while some are ordinary laborers working as porters at the capital’s docks. Their identities are flawless, yet it’s evident they’ve been here for a long time, otherwise, they wouldn’t be so familiar with the surroundings or know so many people.”

This deeply hidden group surely has ulterior motives.

Ye Muyu pressed her lips: “Were you discovered by the opposition?”

“Not yet; our people have also blended into the marketplace and haven’t approached closely, so the exact number is uncertain.”

“Pay close attention; I think these individuals are crucial and won’t remain inactive.”

“I understand, I’ll be more vigilant.”

Lu Chuan nodded, while Ye Muyu asked concernedly: “Are you injured?”

“No, the last time it was their injury.”

“Okay, take care and stay safe.”

Given the uncertain situation in the capital, Ye Muyu’s wish is to ensure her own safety; other matters are secondary.
