Yesterday "Ning Cheng" was not feeling well, Wei Zhen was afraid of affecting his rest, so he didn't ask Bitao to wake him up, this night, Wei Zhen was thinking about Ning Cheng in his heart.

In the morning, Wei Zhen got up, had breakfast under Zhang Yuan's service, and then went all the way to the tent in Ningcheng. Like Wei Zhen, Bi Tao didn't sleep well last night, and her pretty face rarely looked haggard.

Seeing Wei Zhen coming with Zhang Yuan from a distance, Bi Tao was startled, and hurried into the tent: "Your Majesty is coming soon, and now it's not like last night when you can't see anything. If you let Your Majesty know that the princess is gone, it will be... …this……"

Lu Rui got up lazily: "I haven't panicked yet, why are you panicking, Sister Bi Tao?"

"you!"

When the two were talking, Wei Zhen and Zhang Yuan had already arrived in front of the tent, Bi Tao only heard Zhang Yuan's shrill voice and remembered: "Your Majesty is here—"

Bitao swallowed, cold sweat broke out on her palms: "Your Majesty is coming."

Lurui pushed Bitao: "Sister, let's go pick her up."

Bi Tao is now biting the bullet and getting it. If she had known this, she shouldn't have helped the princess sneak out of the camp back then, and it was fine if she was not easy to explain to His Majesty. The princess's current whereabouts are also unknown.

"Slave Bi Tao, please greet Your Majesty." Bi Tao blessed her body and saluted Wei Zhen.

Wei Zhen waved Bi Tao to get up, and seeing that Ning Cheng didn't come out to pick him up, he asked, "Where's Ning Cheng? Still feeling unwell?"

"The princess woke up this morning, still feeling unwell. She drank the medicine and fell asleep again. The servant girl told the princess that His Majesty visited him last night. The princess was very happy to hear that, but she asked the servant girl to tell her majesty that he is currently ill. Don't worry about it to His Majesty, I hope His Majesty will come to see him after the princess is well." Bi Tao lied frightened.

Wei Zhen felt very relieved when he heard Bi Tao's words, but he was thinking of Ning Cheng wholeheartedly, why would he not go to see him because of such a trivial matter?

"I am the Son of Heaven, with dragon aura in my body, how can I be afraid of mere sickness?" As he said that, he wanted to go in to see Ning Cheng.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Princess, Princess, she is still resting now..." Bi Tao hurriedly stopped her, "Your Majesty, please come back later."

But Wei Zhen would not listen to Bitao, so he waved Bitao away and went straight into the tent.

It was daytime, and the tent was brightly lit.

Lu Rui sat in front of Ning Cheng's vanity mirror, carefully drawing her own eyebrows, but she seemed to have bent her eyebrows, and impatiently erased the part she just painted.

This is what Wei Zhen saw as soon as he came in.

"What's going on here? Where's Ning Cheng?" Wei Zhen pointed at Lu Rui, his face turned livid.

Zhang Yuan stood beside Wei Zhen with his head bowed, not daring to answer. According to Zhang Yuan's experience in serving Wei Zhen for many years, this might be a sign before the storm.

When Wei Zhen came in, Bi Tao immediately followed.When Bitao saw Lurui sitting there so calmly, even when Wei Zhen questioned her, she didn't show the slightest bit of fear.

Bi Tao was very disturbed, she felt that Lu Rui's behavior was too abnormal.

"Your Majesty, why are you so angry? It's just that your favorite concubine is having an affair with someone else. This is not the first time. Lu Rui thinks that your majesty is already used to it."

No one in the tent dared to answer Wei Zhen's words, Lu Rui got up gently, without saluting, just like that, she walked slowly in front of Wei Zhen without looking at anyone else, and said in a very coquettish tone.

"Lu Rui! What do you mean? The princess was obviously coaxed away by you! How can you slander the princess and say that the princess is having an affair with someone else?" Bi Tao was shocked and couldn't help retorting.

Lu Rui sneered: "Sister Bi Tao, do you dare to say that Princess Ning Cheng has nothing to do with Mr. Yun Ge?"

When Wei Zhen heard Yun Ge's name, an unknown emotion flashed in his eyes. Before Ning Cheng fell from a tree and fell into a coma, he had called Yun Ge's name many times.

"Yunge?"

Lu Rui turned her face to Wei Zhen, and said, "Yes, Your Majesty. You must not have forgotten Mr. Yun Ge. Speaking of which, there is still a layer of in-law relationship between you."

Yun Ge's mother was the first emperor's direct sister, Princess Chaoyang.

"Are you from Yunge?"

"Otherwise, what does His Majesty think?"

Wei Zhen also calmed down at this time: "I don't look like it."

Lu Rui was smiling at first, but as soon as Wei Zhen's words came out, Lu Rui's smile froze on her face: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

"I've never seen a slave who is so eager to betray his master, or is it that you don't regard Yun Ge as your master at all?" Wei Zhen said lightly, and then said to Zhang Yuan who was standing with his head bowed: "Zhang Yuan, if you were caught, would you directly report my name like this?"

"I dare not." Zhang Yuan said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is wise." Hearing Wei Zhen's words, Bi Tao seemed to have hope suddenly ignited, and quickly said: "This Lu Rui has ulterior motives, and what she said is absolutely unbelievable."

Wei Zhen gave Bitao a cold look. Bitao was too frightened to say anything else. Bitao knew that she helped Ning Cheng sneak out of the camp, and she couldn't escape the guilt anyway. But Bitao was afraid that Ning Cheng would be punished by Wei Zhen, so she wanted to excuse him.

"Lu Rui just slipped his tongue in a flash, Yun Ge is Lu Rui's master, how could Lu Rui betray him?" Lu Rui defended herself.

Wei Zhen was not so easily deceived by her. Wei Zhen lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down on the imperial concubine's couch.

"I don't care if you are quick-mouthed or do it on purpose. I think the hidden guard will tell me the result. Zhang Yuan, take this woman down and hand it over to Li Xi for interrogation. I want to see if it is Who is so bold, dare to take Ning Cheng away under my nose."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Yuan replied as he bent over.

Zhang Yuan took Lu Rui away, leaving only Wei Zhen and Bitao in the tent.

"Bitao." Wei Zhen whispered, with a hint of danger.

"Slave, servant is here."

"Now I'm giving you one last chance. I hope you will tell the truth about yesterday's situation. If you continue to hide anything, even if you are Ning Cheng's most important maid, I will never let you go lightly. I understand. Is it?" Wei Zhen said.

"Yes..." Bi Tao replied tremblingly.

Next, Bitao told Wei Zhen how Lurui came in yesterday, and how she cooperated with Imperial Physician Wen to bring Ning Cheng out of the camp. Pushing it to Lu Rui, saying that Ning Cheng was bewitched by this Lu Rui, and accidentally caught her way, and hoped that Wei Zhen would not blame him too much.

Wei Zhen has no time to investigate the reason why Ning Cheng left the camp. In his opinion, the most important thing now is to find Ning Cheng back. He can only get answers from Ning Cheng when he returns to other matters. .

Wei Zhen sent guards to arrest Doctor Wen, but Doctor Wen seemed to have heard the news, and by the time the guards arrived at his tent, Doctor Wen had long since disappeared.

Wei Zhen was furious and ordered that Doctor Wen must be arrested.

Ning Cheng is the concubine, he

However, the problem now is that Imperial Physician Wen has already escaped, and he was the last person to see Ning Cheng. Without the clue of Imperial Physician Wen, how can we find Ning Cheng?

Lu Rui's words suddenly came to Wei Zhen's mind.

"Your Majesty, why are you so angry? It's just that your favorite concubine is having an affair with someone else. This is not the first time. Lu Rui thinks that your majesty is already used to it."

Wei Zhen thought, maybe that person knows where Doctor Wen is.

When Wei Zhen came to Concubine Cheng's tent, Concubine Cheng was embroidering a purse. It was a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water. Concubine Cheng was dexterous and embroidered so lifelike that the mandarin ducks seemed to come alive.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here." Concubine Cheng's personal maid came in and reported.

Concubine Cheng put down her purse and got up to pick her up.

"Wanmo has met His Majesty." Concubine Cheng greeted Wei Zhen. She didn't know that Ning Cheng was taken out of the camp by Imperial Physician Wen, and she was still wondering why Wei Zhen didn't go to Ning Cheng, but to her. What about the tent?

But Wei Zhen is the emperor after all, if Wei Zhen doesn't say anything, even Concubine Cheng can't ask.

"Concubine Cheng, get up." Wei Zhen said, waving his hand to make all the maids around Concubine Cheng retreat.

"Wanmo thank you Your Majesty." Concubine Cheng stood up softly.

Apart from Wei Zhen, only Concubine Cheng was left in the tent. Concubine Cheng did not dare to neglect Wei Zhen. After thinking about it, she went to get the teacup herself and poured tea for Wei Zhen.

"Your Majesty, please have some tea." Concubine Cheng respectfully said.

Wei Zhen took the tea brought by Concubine Cheng, the warmth of the tea passed through the wall of the cup to the palm of his hand, Wei Zhen stroked the teacup in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Concubine Cheng, Ning Cheng is gone."

"What! Concubine De is gone?" Concubine Cheng said in surprise: "Wanmo was riding horses with Concubine De concubine yesterday, it was only a day, why did she, why..."

"I have already found out who did it, but now this person has absconded in fear of crime. I can't find him now, and I have no way of knowing Ning Cheng's whereabouts."

"Who is so bold, dare to take De Concubine Empress from the camp?" Concubine Cheng asked, "Your Majesty must not let this person go."

At this time, Wei Zhen put down the teacup in her hand, raised her head, and fixed her eyes on Concubine Cheng: "You are very familiar with this person, Concubine Cheng. This time I also want to ask you if you know the whereabouts of this person."

Concubine Cheng felt uneasy suddenly, the mandarin duck purse embroidered just now was beside her, Concubine Cheng glanced at the mandarin duck purse beside her, and her mouth felt slightly bitter.

"Your Majesty, you already knew."
