When Mu Lingfeng returned from the Princess Mansion, he was extremely furious. He had initially wanted to show off his might, but in the end, he was filled with anger.

He furiously put down his sword and poured himself a full cup of wine to drink.

Hearing that Mu Lingfeng seemed to be in a bad mood, Xue Shaoli hurried over to take a look.

"Madam." Seeing Xue Shaoli, the servant hurriedly bowed respectfully. Not long after marrying into the Duke Palaces, Xue Shaoli had already sat in an unshakeable position within the Duke Palaces, and established a large amount of WeChat.

When Mu Lingfeng heard the sound and saw Xue Shaoli enter, she did not say anything and continued to drink.

Xue Shaoli walked up, gracefully lifted the wine pot and poured a cup for Mu Lingfeng, then sat down.

"This Xue Moyun is indeed not someone to be trifled with. She can still give Third Prince so much trouble at a time like this. "Damn it!" Xue Shaoli scolded.

"Did you come to see a joke?" Mu Lingfeng said impatiently.

"How could that be? I share the same heart as Third Prince and his wife, and I have an irreconcilable relationship with Xue Moyun." Xue Shaoli immediately expressed his stance. After a while, he slowly asked: "I heard that Xue Moyun intentionally called herself sick and hid in her room to not come out, I wonder if that is true or not?"

Hearing her say that, Mu Lingfeng put down the cup: "I haven't seen her, but she seems to be really sick. With cough all over, her breath is weak, and she hides and doesn't dare meet anyone, she must have contracted some kind of illness."

"Ever since the prince left, she has been hiding in the small courtyard. Even now, she hasn't recovered. Could she have contracted some form of infectious disease?" Xue Shaoli guessed.

"It's possible." Mu Lingfeng pondered.

"Then why don't we quickly report this to the Emperor and tell him that she has contracted an evil disease. In order to prevent transmission, we must quickly seal the Princess Mansion and prevent anyone from approaching her. We must let her die from illness inside." Xue Shaoli said viciously.

"Absolutely not." Mu Lingfeng said.

"Why?" Xue Shaoli asked doubtfully. Could it be that the Third Prince could not bear to see her, and had fallen for her? Xue Shaoli thought about it while savoring the thought.

"Right now, it is not enough to prove that she is a traitor. Father still has feelings for her in his heart. Even if she no longer had any feelings for him, she would still take good care of him. If she stays in Princess Mansion like this all day, she must be afraid of people finding out that she has an infectious disease. " Mu Lingfeng said.

"Oh, chenqie understands. She would die sooner or later if she stayed in there, not being treated in time. And if we tell the emperor, we'll even help her. It would be better to just wait and see when she dies. " Xue Shaoli laughed sinisterly.

Mu Lingfeng lifted the wine and continued to drink, the expression on his face also becoming sinister.

"No, we can't let this go easily. I'll enter the palace tomorrow and let Zheng Ziyi properly speak ill of her in front of royal father. When the time comes, I will 'find' evidence of her traitorous actions … " Mu Lingfeng rubbed her chin and said.

The method was not bad, but hearing that Mu Lingfeng was going to look for Zheng Ziyi again, Xue Shaoli could not help but feel jealousy burning in her heart. This slut of a female attendant and her second husband, it wasn't enough for her to have the Emperor. She often used her identity to seduce her own men.

"I've been married into the palace for some time now, and I think about how there were a lot of people in the palace that the empress dowager also loved me. How about I go to the palace with you tomorrow, and use the name of the empress dowager to properly connect all the previous connections. It'll still be useful in the future." Xue Shaoli said fakely.

Mu Lingfeng thought that what she said was reasonable. Although Xue Shaoli had later become the daughter of a sinner, she had always been demure and elegant, good at communicating with others, smooth and tactful in life. She was still quite popular in the palace. It was also true that he wanted her to walk around a bit more.

"Fine, then follow me to the palace tomorrow." Mu Lingfeng said.

"But always be careful. You must not be disrespectful." Mu Lingfeng warned again.

"Yes, chenqie will remember that." Xue Shaoli bowed with a smile.

Mu Ying and the rest searched the surroundings but still couldn't find anything. Everyone panicked, knowing that something must have happened to Xue Moyun.

"Quick, gather everyone and search everywhere." Mu Zhuoshi suggested.

After that, Mu Ying immediately ordered some people to beat the drum, summoning everyone to the stage and asked them if they had seen Brother Xue.

Xue Moyun had accomplished a great service in this war, so basically, everyone knew him. Hearing Mu Ying's question, everyone looked at each other. Only then did they remember that after today's celebratory feast, there was no one left to see him.

Mu Ying panicked. It seemed that no one had seen her ever since they parted ways in the forest with Xue Moyun just now.

"She has always been a loner with a germaphobia. She doesn't come with us when it comes to bathing. Could she have gone to take a bath by herself?" said a soldier, wondering why the prince had come to ask such a thing in the middle of the night.

Mu Ying shook his head. He had searched through the surrounding ponds, grasslands, and forests, but he couldn't find anything.

"Will he be with someone on a whim, picking fruits, or watching the moon?" The other laughed. After seeing Mu Ying's gloomy face, he quickly shut his mouth.

"Is everyone here?" Hearing his words, Mu Ying asked harshly.

"Right, everyone, look around yourself. Report who's missing immediately." Liang Yue said.

The guard looked around and saw a black skinny young man raise his hand: "Reporting to the general, our Commander Ji is no longer in this battalion."

"Commander Ji? Bring me his household register at once. The others followed Liang Yue and looked around. "Dismissed." Mu Ying said as he rushed back into the tent.

Today was a celebratory dinner, and it was so late, yet this person disappeared with Xue Moyun. Mu Ying could faintly sense that there was a huge conspiracy behind this.

"General." Wei Ming walked in quickly.

"Have you brought the information?" Mu Ying anxiously asked.

"Here." Wei Ming hurriedly submitted it.

Mu Ying opened it and took a look. His face turned pale from fright as he retreated back a few steps.

"As expected, it's not so easy to let go of this comforting barrier." Mu Ying fiercely threw the information onto the ground.

Wei Ming lowered his head to look at the scroll, and saw more or less the words: Commander Ji is a person from the border between the north and south, because of some crimes at the comfort zone, he was chased by the comfort zone, and escaped to the West Cold, where he was taken in by others, and later on became deeply grateful, and with his own ability, slowly became the commander. Looking at it now, it was likely that he had an impure goal.

"Inform them to come back." Mu Ying said, then took his sword and walked far away, disappearing into the night. Wei Ming was startled for a moment, and quickly went to find Mu Zhuoshi and the others.

Mu Ying quickly arrived at the side of the small forest, this was the last place where Xue Moyun disappeared.
