Why?

He didn't say anything and stopped talking, but he took a deep breath and got up from Yun Chaomu's body.

Yun Chaomu also hurriedly stood up and tidied up her messy collar and a few strands of scattered hair.

"Your Highness, you didn't agree to the marriage the Emperor granted today, but is it because of what I said before?"

Because she was deeply hurt, she didn't dare to try and wanted to take it slow, so Di Wuming didn't want to force her, and that's why she rejected the emperor. Is that the reason?

Emperor Wuming felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him.

"Yun Chaomu, there is something I want to tell you, but I don't know how to start."

"What is it? Your Majesty, please feel free to tell me."

Clouds on the road in the morning and evening.

I don’t know what Emperor Wuming wants to say.

Di Wuming had been preparing for this for a long time. He really didn't want to say it. He and Yun Chaomu were already so close, how could he say it? Once he said it, he knew what he would face without even thinking about it.

She hasn't gotten over her heartbreak yet, but now she knows the truth. How should she face it?

But if he keeps it secret, Amu will get deeper and deeper into trouble, and he will be in debt even more, and then there will be no way out.

He is not a coward and he dares to act and take responsibility.

"Amu, four years ago in Phoenix Mountain..."

"My lord, something happened!"

Just as Emperor Wuming opened his mouth, he heard the anxious voice of his subordinates outside, interrupting the words he was about to say.

Di Wuming's face suddenly turned dark and cold.

The third time!

the third time!

"what's up?"

He shouted angrily, pulling aside the curtain of the carriage.

The cold and murderous tone frightened the guard who was reporting outside so much that his body trembled and he almost fell to the ground with weak knees.

When I raised my eyes, I saw my master's gloomy face and murderous eyes.

I was silent. I looked at Yun Chaomu and saw that Miss Meng's lips seemed to be red and swollen, and there was even rouge smudged on the corners of her mouth. And the prince also seemed to have a suspicious red color on his lips...

The subordinate instantly understood why his master had a murderous tone. It seemed that he had ruined his master's good deeds.

He deserves to die!

However, this matter is of great importance and must be reported!

"Master, I have something important to report."

The subordinate said with gritted teeth.

"What's the matter?"

The emperor did not ask any questions.

The subordinate raised his eyes and glanced at Yun Chaomu, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Yun Chaomu understood instantly that this matter was either related to her or she couldn't bear to hear it.

"Your Majesty, I will go into the mansion first. It's a good opportunity to go see Aunt Liu."

Yun Chaomu was about to get off the car as soon as he finished speaking.

But the subordinate's face tensed, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Yun Chaomu was so perceptive that he paused as he was about to get off the carriage. "What's wrong?"

She asked.

Emperor Wuming couldn't bear to watch anymore, and immediately asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

The subordinate no longer dared to hide anything and said, "My lord, today is the anniversary of the death of the Duke of Zhenguo. Madam Liu left the mansion, saying that she was going to see the Duke of Zhenguo. Two of us followed her to protect her. But after we arrived at the cemetery, Madam Liu did not allow us to follow closely, saying that she wanted to talk to the Duke of Zhenguo alone. But after an incense stick of time, we realized something was wrong and returned to the tombstone, only to find that Madam Liu was gone."

"Gone?"

Yun Chaomu's expression suddenly changed. She got out of the car anxiously and almost fell to the ground because of her excessive movements. Fortunately, Di Wuming reacted quickly and helped her up, "Be careful."

"What do you mean missing?"

Emperor Wuming asked sternly.

The subordinate knelt down in panic and said, "We failed in our duty and failed to take good care of Madam Liu."

Di Wuming's face was instantly filled with gloom, because he knew better than anyone how important Madam Liu was to Yun Chaomu.

"Where's Chu Ling? Where did he go? Today is his father's death anniversary, didn't he go?"

The emperor did not ask any questions.

The subordinate said, "My lord, I don't know. I remember Madam Liu said that every year on the anniversary of the death of the Duke of Zhenguo, Commander Chu went to the cemetery alone and did not let Madam Liu go with him, fearing that Madam Liu would be too sad."

Di Wuming understood, and Yun Chaomu also understood, "Aunt Liu and Uncle Chu have a very deep relationship. They are childhood sweethearts. When Uncle Chu got into trouble, Aunt Liu must be the one who was most sad. Ah Ling was probably afraid that Aunt Liu would be too sad, and didn't want her to go to pay respects to Uncle Chu, so she went alone. But Aunt Liu couldn't sit still, so she went too."

"Your Highness, will Aunt Liu be upset? Will something happen to her? Is Aunt Liu still in the cemetery?"

she asked eagerly.

"Don't worry, I will send someone to look for it right away."

The Emperor has no dark ways.

"Leng Feng, listen to my order. Immediately dispatch 300 soldiers to search for him, and call Chu Ling over as well."

"Yes."

The subordinates received the order and retreated immediately, feeling extremely nervous. The rules of Prince You's Palace were strict, and they would definitely be punished for failing to provide adequate guarding, but if they could find the person quickly, they could make up for it.

"Your Majesty..."

"I will go to the cemetery with you."

Without waiting for Yun Chaomu to finish his words, Emperor Wuming spoke immediately.

Yun Chaomu nodded, feeling very happy. Di Wuming really knew what she was thinking.

The two of them didn't waste a moment and headed quickly towards the cemetery.

The tomb of the Duke of Zhenguo is in a valley, a place that Chu Ling had found. It is a little hard to find, and there are lush trees everywhere. The tombstone stands halfway up the mountain, surrounded by mountains, water, and trees. There is a lake facing the valley, and it is considered a very good Feng Shui location.

Three hundred guards conducted a carpet search of the mountain.

Emperor Wuming brought Yun Chaomu directly to the tombstone of the Duke of Zhenguo. It could be seen that the surroundings were very clean and quiet, with fresh fruits and vegetables placed there, and incense that had been burned out, which meant that someone had indeed come to pay homage.

So where did Aunt Liu go?

Aunt Liu is definitely not the kind of person who would disappear without reason. On the contrary, she is kind and considerate of others. Now that she is relying on Prince You's Mansion, she will not leave without reason. What's more, there are guards waiting for her. If she disappears without reason, many people will be implicated.

"Is it possible that Aunt Liu went into the mountains because she was too sad and missed Uncle Chu too much?"

The clouds asked morning and evening.

People always do irrational things when they are extremely sad.

The emperor never remained silent.

"Or maybe Aunt Liu will go back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion."

Today, the Duke Zhenguo Mansion has been changed to the Duke Liang Mansion.

"That shouldn't be possible. Even if Madam Liu wanted to go back, she wouldn't leave alone without the guards. This is unreasonable."

The Emperor has no dark ways.

Yun Chaomu was a little annoyed. She was really worried and confused, and her brain was not enough.

Suddenly, Di Wuming's eyes became sharp, and he strode towards a place not far away, then squatted down and looked at the footprints and grass on the ground.

"what happened?"

"Someone came here and there was a shove or a fight."

Yun Chaomu's expression changed and he immediately moved forward.

"There is grass on the ground, so even if there were footprints, you can't see them. But the grass here has obviously been trampled, but it has been tidied. Although the marks are very faint, they are different from the fresh grass next to it, and there are creases."

"So Aunt Liu was taken away by someone! Who was it? Who took Aunt Liu away?"
