Yuwai Wang and Mu Yunyao arrived at the place where Princess Yu was kidnapped. Shuntian Prefecture's Director Shen Bingshu had already led his men to investigate, but unfortunately, the kidnappers had already swept the area clean. They chased them for two streets before completely disappearing without a trace.

Yu Yi brought his men to look around the area. The Winged Tiger King stopped his horse, and the Snow Fox jumped onto the ground. After sniffing the surrounding area, it quickly ran in a certain direction.

Yue Wang hurriedly urged his horse to follow. Mu Yunyao slightly bit her lips. She had specially instructed people to train Snow Fox before, but putting all of her hope on Treading on Snow would still be a bit risky.

The Yuwai King tightened his grip around Mu Yunyao's arm, "Yao`er, we will find Second Sister-in-Law."

Mu Yunyao nodded, the panic in her heart receding slightly.

The Snow Fox headed eastward toward the east gate of the city and stopped in front of it, jumping up and down.

The guard holding the door stepped forward, pointing the spear in his hands at King Yue, "Who is it?"

"I am King Yue, is there anyone at the city gate carrying a palanquin to drive me out tonight?"

The city guard took two steps forward, and after seeing the faces of the Bee King and Mu Yunyao, he hurriedly knelt and saluted. "Reporting to Your Highness Bee King, no one has left the city ever since the city gates closed at night."

Mu Yunyao's gaze landed on the few people behind the speaking guards, and lightly leaned back.

Yue Yang raised his hand and commanded Yu Yi who was behind him: "Capture them all!"

Yu Yi led his men and pressed them down, causing the guards to momentarily panic, "Your Highness Duke of Yue, what are you trying to do? After the curfew, no one is allowed to walk on the streets, especially when you have to leave the city. Although you are the prince of the dynasty, you are not allowed to violate the law of the country. "

Yue Wang laughed coldly: "Hearing you talk so much, I knew I caught the right person!" Ordinary city guards, when they were held captive by the king, it was fine if they weren't scared, but who gave them the guts to retort?

Mu Yunyao pointed at a tall guard at the side. "Wei Jiu."

Wei Jiu, who had been following him, directly jumped forward and landed behind that person like a ghost. He used his arm to lock that person's neck, then with a kacha sound, he removed that person's chin.

A trace of satisfaction flashed through Mu Yunyao's eyes. "That person's body has traces of blood. Bring him down for questioning and see if you can find anything."

After Mu Yunyao had finished giving her orders, the Yuwai King gave his order, "Yu Yi, after I and my wife and I have brought our men out of the city, let them handle the city gate and prevent anyone from entering or exiting it. Unless it's royal father who comes personally, all other people must come and stop them.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Snow Fox had already ran outside. After running for nearly half a quarter of an hour, it suddenly turned around and charged into the forest. It then stopped at the edge of the forest and looked around, not moving at all.

The Winged King carried Mu Yunyao off his horse and went over to the place where the Snow Fox had stopped to take a look.

Mu Yunyao reached out to pick a leaf, and after lightly twirling her finger, she placed it under her nose to smell it. "There's a mix of medicinal powder here, so this Snow Fox can't continue to track it."

"After receiving the news, we immediately set off to find someone. Even if the people who kidnapped Second Sister are well-prepared, they shouldn't be too far away. I will immediately gather some men to search the mountain."

Mu Yunyao looked at the dense forest in front of her, her expression especially grave. "Beyond the dense forest is the East Cliff Mountain. If those people hide in the mountains, I'm afraid that it would be impossible to find them in a short period of time. Second sister is pregnant right now, there's something wrong …"

"Yao'er, we can only do our best …"

Mu Yunyao nodded and followed King Yue in searching for traces of the forest. In the end, they only found a few broken grass, leaves, and branches, but very few traces were left behind.

Mu Yunyao squatted down and looked at the inconspicuous marks. Her expression suddenly changed, "Fourth Master, could it be that we've fallen into a trap?"

Yue Yang suddenly turned his head, "Why do you say that?" After hearing that the assailant had been mobilized, we guessed that the culprit was the King and Li Family, and they even had the help of Prince Jin. Thus, we thought highly of the robber's ability, coupled with the Snow Fox tracking them down, we naturally assumed that the robber had taken Second Sister with him out of the capital.

People are deliberately misleading us, for example, when they knew that we would use the Snow Fox, deliberately using Second Sister's clothes to leave a trace of our presence, and then arrange for the city gate guards to make a mistake so that we can make a firm guess, once we mobilize all of our forces here, we will fall into their trap. " King Yue understood Mu Yunyao's meaning as he furrowed his brows, "If we were to fall into their trap, it would definitely be a waste of a lot of time to gather all our manpower to search the mountain. They would be prepared to hide Second Sister-in-Law even if they knew that she was hiding within the capital and hence, they would not be able to find her.

"I know how long it will take." "That's right." Mu Yunyao threw away the leaf in her hand. She didn't suspect anything at first, but when the robbers entered the forest, their actions of sprinkling the scent powder were too strange. Those people had kidnapped someone and wanted to escape, so naturally, they had to hide. Since there was a powder to confuse the smell, why did they hide?

What do you mean not to use it from the start, but to use it when it's not easy to follow them into the forest? When he thought about it, he realized that something was wrong.

"I will leave a portion of my men behind to continue searching the mountain forest. Let's head back to the capital right now to check on Wei Jiu's interrogation of the city guards. Also, Second Brother should have some arrangements made to first meet up and discuss the plan." "Alright." Mu Yunyao nodded in agreement. She had rushed out just now in hopes of finding the clues as soon as possible and then testing to find out if she could find the person following the clues. Now, she realized that those clues might have been left deliberately by someone else, so searching any further would be futile.

Only when some powers are combined can they be better arranged.

As soon as the two of them reached the city gates, they ran into Wei Jiu who was about to leave the city. "Mistress, the guards have been interrogated. Although someone has left the city, they are not the people who kidnapped Princess Yu."

Mu Yunyao nodded, "I understand. Has the Emperor found out about the situation?"

"Your majesty has already sent someone to report to the emperor. The emperor is furious, and has now ordered a temporary blockade of the capital, as well as a search for the culprit who kidnapped Princess Yu. However, considering Princess Yu's reputation, this is only a covert investigation." Mu Yunyao's heart sank. Princess Yu was the future candidate for Empress, and her dignity was related to the prestige of the imperial family. If there were any unfavorable rumors, they could easily destroy her. 'In that case, Imperial Concubine Yu would be terrified! '

He was afraid that he would really be in danger …

King Yue saw that Mu Yunyao's face had turned pale as she held her hand with slight force. "Yao`er?" Mu Yunyao shook her head to suppress the bad premonition in her heart, "I'm fine. Fourth Master, it's important to find someone."
