Buddhist Miracle Doctor: The Dark Prince, Can't Get Rid of Him

Chapter 711 Missing

When it was almost noon, Mu Yingbao sat in the kitchen and watched Shitou and Yadan chopping dumpling stuffing. No matter how he looked at them, he felt that these two were truly a match made in heaven.

Just as he was thinking about how to act as a matchmaker, Lin Chuan came back and looked at Mu Yingbao with a strange expression.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Mu Yingbao had to ask.

"Madam, I just heard a piece of news that Princess Ziyun is missing. The prince from the delegation entered the palace early in the morning. Although he didn't say it explicitly, I heard that he wanted to ask the emperor for someone." After Lin Chuan finished speaking, he looked at Mu Yingbao with a bit of worry.

"Missing? Why would she come to us for someone if she's missing? Maybe she felt embarrassed and secretly went back to Yunning Country." Yadan said disapprovingly.

Shitou Hongran didn't say anything, but after hearing what Yadan said, she nodded and agreed with her point of view.

Mu Yingbao didn't say a word. She was thinking, according to her own analysis, that person who suffered a great loss in the Princess Tea House incident must be looking for ways to take revenge. Although she had never met her, she still felt that she was not the type of person who would run away after suffering a loss.

If it's really because of face, it doesn't make sense.

Because, if she really went back to her country, wouldn't that be even more shameful?

Just as she was thinking about it, Xue Wen and his father Yuhui also came back. When they entered the kitchen and saw Lin Chuan was there, as well as the expressions of several other people, she realized that the princess was missing. She knew about it.

"Is it really gone?" Mu Yingbao asked the father and son again, wanting to get confirmation.

The father and son nodded together, walked to the table and sat down, and Nanzhu also brought in some hot tea.

"I've already asked people to help look for it. You don't have to worry, mother." Brother Hui said.

Mu Yingbao was stunned when he heard this; "What? Why should I worry?"

Hearing this, Brother Hui looked at Xue Wenyu, and the two of them exchanged glances.

Yes, my father really guessed it. After my mother heard about it, she definitely wouldn’t think much about it.

"Hey, what do you two mean? The princess is missing, is someone trying to put the blame on me?" Mu Yingbao asked in a counter-intuitive manner.

The princess came to Yanguo with the intention of marrying Duke Xue Wenyu. So, as his legal wife, Mu Yingbao must have disliked the princess the most.

So, when the princess suddenly disappeared, the first person to be suspected was Mu Yingbao.

"People from Yunning Kingdom suspect me? Or do our own people in the court have such thoughts?" Mu Yingbao knew that she had guessed right when she saw the reactions of the father and son.

If the people from the Yunning Kingdom delegation had doubts, she wouldn't mind. A person of integrity is not afraid of his own shadow. There is nothing to worry about if it wasn't her fault.

But if it was someone in the court who suspected her, then she couldn't help but mind it, as it must be a prejudice against her.

"Mother, they are from the diplomatic mission, not ours." Brother Hui explained quickly when he saw his mother was about to lose her temper.

"Well, that's better." Mu Yingbao said, then stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to mix the stuffing and make dumplings.

What princess is missing? But we still have to eat!

Brother Hui was relieved to see that his mother's mood was not affected. "Mother, I will change out of my dragon robe and come over to make dumplings."

"Ah? You're not going to court this afternoon?" Mu Yingbao wanted to stop the hassle of changing back and forth.

Brother Hui smiled and said, "Mom, there is nothing important to do in the afternoon, and I want to take a rest.

That's right, it's time to take a rest. He has been attending court all day recently. After all, he is a child. Mu Yingbao has been feeling sorry for him and wants him to rest.

Xue Wenyu also changed into his official robes, and the father and son returned to the kitchen at about the same speed. They saw Mu Yingbao already starting to make dumpling skins.

Yadan and Shitou walked out consciously, leaving the kitchen to the three of them.

"Is the old man out running errands again?" Mu Yingbao didn't see Old Man Tao come back, so she guessed that he had gone to investigate the disappearance of the princess.

Brother Hui nodded and told Mu Yingbao that Luo Yi had also gone out.

"Yao, do you think the disappearance of the princess might be the work of our opponents, who want to make the Yunning Kingdom turn against us?" Mu Yingbao asked suddenly.

Xue Wenyu nodded when he heard this. "Brother Hui and I also thought of this possibility. So Luo Yi and Grandfather went to check it out."

"It is also possible that the princess hid herself and wanted to take revenge on me?" Mu Yingbao didn't think too much about it when he heard the news, but now, the more he thinks about it, the more possibilities he has.

"Whether she was taken away by someone or she sneaked away on her own, it is not an easy matter." Xue Wenyu wrapped a dumpling, placed it on the curtain and expressed his opinion.

He had his own people in the inn, and there were also several secret guards outside. How could he disappear right under their noses?

After all, he was a living person!

Mu Yingbao believed in Hui Ge's ability to deal with the situation, so he didn't ask him how he would respond to the Yunning Kingdom delegation.

The family of three were making dumplings while analyzing the various possibilities of Princess Ziyun's disappearance.

After the dumplings were wrapped and cooked, the appetite of the three was not affected at all. Brother Hui ate two large plates, Xue Wenyu ate three plates, and Mu Yingbao still had the smallest appetite.

Now that it has happened, no matter what the reason is, the truth will eventually come out.

I said, the person who got into trouble is someone that none of the three of them likes, so we won’t worry about it.

All we have to do is to find out the truth, and it would be best if we could bring the person back and hand him over to the Yunning Kingdom delegation.

A young but vicious woman like that, worrying about her? You must be bored!

She was looking for trouble and didn't get what she wanted. After she suffered a loss, she took her anger out on the people working under her. If it weren't for the people here keeping an eye on her, even if Yunxiang wasn't beaten to death, she would have been buried alive!

After the three of them had eaten, they got up and strolled outside.

"Just say whatever you want to say." Mu Yingbao was walking and when he turned around, he saw the father and son behind him exchanging eye contact.

Xue Wenyu immediately turned his head to the other side. Brother Hui had no choice but to accept his fate and said, "Mother, do you think it has something to do with Gang Leader Kong?"

There was really no other way. The father and son had already discussed this possibility on the way back from court.

My father is very cunning and was afraid that my mother would be angry if he told her.

Mu Yingbao blinked when he heard this. "No way, Kong Lian doesn't seem like such an unreliable person."

Is he reliable? Would a reliable person drop everything and follow me to the capital? Xue Wenyu murmured in his heart.

In fact, it wasn't just the father and the other two who were suspicious of Kong Lian. As soon as Old Man Tao left the palace, he went straight to find him.

At this time, Old Man Tao was already sitting opposite Kong Lian.

Kong Lian took a piece of soft cotton cloth and wiped the scabbard in his hand; "Senior, do you think it was Kong who did it now...
