Chapter 773: The Trusted Person

Wang Hao, after sending Wu Qinyang to Changying, came to the barracks where he met Huo Jin. He bowed upon seeing General Wang and stood up.

"General Wang, I checked the secret route last night. Unfortunately, it is closed," Huo Jin informed Wang Hao, who was shocked to hear it.

"The route is closed! That's impossible. Does it mean that Empress Dowager knows about the secret routes in the Palace?" Wang Hao frowned and rested his fingers on the table in front of him.

"I searched the other routes too, but only this one is closed. I cannot enter her manor," Huo Jin stated.

"When did she close this route?" Wang Hao muttered.

"It might be a possibility that the Former Empress did it. Tan Gengxin might have helped her," Huo Jin asserted. Wang Hao agreed with his opinion.

"Huo Jin, the Empress has found out about the Emperor's condition. Rumors have spread in the capital. It seems to be the work of Empress Dowager," Wang Hao deduced.
