Seeing that the time was approaching, the deadline was coming soon, and he had to rush back to give an explanation to the emperor, to give an explanation to Eastern Qin, and to give an explanation to the ministers and people of Western Chu.
But he couldn't hand over the person, and he knew what the consequences were waiting for him!
The emperor will definitely take this opportunity to suppress him and belittle him, and he will bear the infamy of being a sinner of Western Chu!
He doesn't care about any of this. As long as he can find her and know that she is safe and sound, he is willing to bear all the charges!
But he just couldn't find her, no one alive, no body after death...
Chu Shaoyang's heart felt as if something was biting him hard, causing him to bleed and make him miserable.
Every step he took, there was a heavy pain in his heart.
He hates, hates everyone here, and the person he hates the most is Mo Chuan!
It was obvious that he hid Ning'er in a place where he couldn't find her, but he used this method to force her to surrender.
Chu Shaoyang's teeth were almost broken. He walked up to Mo Chuan and stood upright without even kneeling down.
"King Dingyuan, why don't you bow to your Majesty when you see him?" Xiaosi couldn't help scolding him.
Chu Shaoyang curled his lips and sneered: "Your Majesty, I have come to return my orders."
Mo Chuan's eyes fell on Chu Shaoyang, and when he saw his appearance, he couldn't help but feel shocked. Even the Queen Mother Zhou had a look of shock in her eyes.
"Shaoyang, what's wrong with you? Are you sick or injured?" she asked caringly.
Chu Shaoyang smiled bitterly and said to the Queen Mother Zhou: "I am not sick or injured. I am just missing something and I can't find it."
"What's missing? Something important?"
"Yes, it is very important. It is the most precious thing I have."
"Oh, what exactly is it? If you tell me, the Ai family will ask the emperor to send someone to help you find it."
"My princess is missing." Chu Shaoyang looked at Queen Mother Zhou, but glanced at Mo Chuan from the corner of his eyes, and said word by word.
"What did you say?!"
Even though Empress Dowager Zhou could always keep her expression calm even when Mount Tai collapsed before her eyes, after hearing these words, her fingers shook and she knocked over the teacup. A cup of hot tea was spilled on her body, but she didn't realize it.
She suddenly stood up from her chair, grabbed Chu Shaoyang's wrist, and asked again.
"Could you tell me more clearly, who is missing?"
"My princess, Shen Ning!"
Empress Dowager Zhou suddenly changed her color. She almost immediately turned to look at Mo Chuan and said in a low voice: "Emperor, do you know about this?"
Her first reaction when she heard the news was that this matter had something to do with her son, and her son must have sent someone to get him away.
Mo Chuan met Empress Dowager Zhou's gaze and nodded calmly.
"My son knows that three days ago, I issued an order to summon King Dingyuan to the palace to discuss today's competition. After King Dingyuan entered the palace, he rushed straight towards Shaobai in a menacing manner. He said that the princess was manipulated by Shaobai. He was kidnapped. Shaobai said that there was no such thing. His ministers did not believe that Shaobai would do such a ridiculous thing, because Shaobai stayed in the palace drunk that night. I was with him all the time, and there were Several maids and eunuchs were present, but King Dingyuan refused to give up and insisted on handing over Shaobai. The minister thought that King Dingyuan was making trouble unreasonably, so he reprimanded him and ordered him to bring Shao Bai before noon today. The princess comes to compete, otherwise she will be severely punished. "
