Several people chatted in the imperial study for two hours. The sun slowly set and the sky outside gradually darkened. Si Xi knew the emperor's usual habits, so he did not order any meal. He just waited at the door, listening attentively to the movements inside.
"Your Majesty," Tao Rende said, "After these 3,000 garrison troops are transferred here, the people in the city will be temporarily safe, but this is not a long-term solution. We need to find the person behind the rebellion as soon as possible to eliminate the trouble forever."
"What do you think, my dear ministers?" Liam asked.
"I have already led troops to search the Demon Suppression Tower. From what I can see, there are indeed traces of people who have been there, but we have not found any secret passages." Jiang Huai said, "There have been murders one after another in this city. No matter if the victim is a human or a ghost, I think they will not leave easily. The defenses at the city gate have been strengthened. Yunde City is not small. If we lead people to search every house, it will probably take at least a month."
"After such a long time, I think Commander Jiang knows that there are many secret passages under Yunde City, and there is a big mountain behind it." Liam said, "Let alone trying to hide from one person, even if there are ten or eight people, as long as they don't show up on their own initiative, it will be enough to cause headaches for the government for a while."
