Zhu Gong led twenty thousand troops and quickly caught up with Mei Shuyu.
Together, they escorted the prison cart holding Ye Lanying back to the Capital City two days later.
Ye Lanying's influence had collapsed in Luwan City that day, and on the journey back, no one came to rescue her.
Upon returning to Capital City, Mei Shuyu had Zhu Gong take his men back to Jinglu Army Camp, while he led a team of guards and continued to escort Ye Lanying into the city.
