On the way back, the low atmosphere made everyone dare not breathe for a moment, and even the footsteps were uniform.

It was almost dawn when they brought Mu Chuan and others into the palace. Mu Haosheng was still a little unbelievable when he heard the bad news. He ran out in panic and looked at Mu Li's sad expression. There was a row of corpses covered with white cloth behind him. His mouth was trembling. He stammered for a long time before he asked with difficulty: "Really... it is your second emperor brother?"

Mu Li lowered his head and said without saying a word, "Father, my son-in-law failed to save the second emperor's brother."

The soldier who found Mu Chuan's body was worried that Mu Li would receive punishment, so he quickly stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with the third prince. The body was found by several subordinates. When we found the second prince, the second prince had been dead for a long time, at least for more than six hours. The third prince had tried his best."

Mu Haosheng widened his eyes and cried silently. After a while, he gasped and said, "Do you know the cause of the second prince's death?"

The soldier nodded and reported truthfully: "Emperor, the second prince fell from the mountain. Not to mention the fractures on his body, there are many wounds cut from sharp stone branches. The fatal wound was on the back of his head. A very deep wound was knocked out there, but I'm afraid he would die directly.

The other guards were in similar condition, with multiple fractures on their bodies, some died of fractures, some died of excessive blood loss, and some were fatal injuries like the second prince.

It was dark and we couldn't see the situation of the mountain clearly. The best way was to go up and take a look during the day. However, I could vaguely see that the mountain was quite steep, and I really couldn't figure out how the second prince would climb that mountain."

Mu Haosheng looked at the slightly bright morning light outside the window and ordered: "Send someone to check the mountain immediately."

"Yes!" The soldier responded.

Mu Haosheng then looked at Mu Li and sighed in pain: "Although your second emperor is not a good person, he is not good enough to make trouble, but he has never done anything that is harmful to the world! How could he end up with such a miserable end? Li'er, you must investigate the cause of your second emperor's death. If you really fall down the mountain, I will admit it. If someone plots to murder him, I will definitely forgive you!"

Mu Li felt a sudden heart, holding his breath, "My son obeys the order!"

Listening to Mu Li's sonorous and powerful voice, Mu Haosheng was more or less comforted. He was originally a little suspicious of Mu Li, but Mu Li was by his side during the day yesterday, and even if he left, it would be a while. It was not enough to run to such a far away from the city. In addition, his confidants were all there yesterday, Mu Haosheng did not target Mu Li.

Mu Li left the palace, looked into the distance with a serious expression, and asked in a low voice with his close friend, "When will Miss Tang Yue and others set off?"

The confidant leaned into his ear and whispered: "I heard that I had set off at dawn. I should have set off now. My subordinates sent people to follow them and found that they were heading towards the direction where the second prince had an accident. But it seemed that they were not going to the mountain. I guess they wanted to enter the mountain from the surrounding smooth mountain."

Mu Li nodded, as long as Yun Yue and the others didn't go to the place where Muchuan had an accident, it didn't matter to go to other places.

The soldiers sent by Mu Haosheng to check the situation quickly came to the mountain, but found that they were wet everywhere, and water was still dripping on the leaves, which clearly rained just now.

The soldier's mouth twitched, and it had actually rained! I don't know what else to stay?

A group of people symbolically wandered around the foot of the mountain, looking up at the towering peaks, struggling to go up. Finally, under the emperor's order, the man still led the two of them up. The mountain was steep and had just rained, so there was no safe place to settle down. They had just climbed one-third of the place and did not dare to go up again, so they hurried back the same way.

Although they couldn't climb up, they found many crushed grass and branches on the mountain, which could be considered as having a good time.

On the way back, these soldiers met Yun Yue and others who were rushing to go, stopped to salute Yun Yue respectfully, and asked in the crappy Qi Lan Guo dialect: "Dear Miss Tang Yue, are you going back?"

Yun Yue probably understood what he meant, nodded, and asked with a smile: "Did you just enter the mountain? Do you know which mountain is easier to climb up here? We have to go back with these things."

The soldiers didn't understand it very well, but Yun Yue gestured for a long time before they understood and enthusiastically pointed Yun Yue in a direction.

Yun Yue nodded to them gratefully. After the soldiers left, Yun Chukuai approached Yun Yue and muttered quietly: "Xiao Yue'er, I suspect they just came back from where Chu Jie had something happened. I guess they went to investigate."

Yun Yue had a calm face and ordered everyone: "Let's speed up!"

When the soldiers returned to the Dao Palace, Yun Yue and the others were about to enter the mountain.

When Mu Haosheng heard the soldiers' report, he sighed. Although he was heartbroken by Mu Chuan's death, he could only accept this fact.

Seeing that Mu Haosheng was in a bad mood, the soldier said, "Your Majesty, when I came back, I met Miss Tang Yue and his group who were returning. They took a lot of things to the direction of the Cangyuan Mountains and asked their subordinates for their way."

"Go back? So fast!" Mu Haosheng said in surprise.

He has always had no time to care about anything because of Mu Chuan's affairs, but he didn't expect Tang Yue to move so quickly?

"Do you know why they are rushing back so much?" Mu Haosheng continued to ask.

A trace of confusion flashed across the soldier's face and said uncertainly: "I heard from the third prince that Miss Tang Yue planned to set off today, so she could take more distances even if she set off early."

Mu Haosheng nodded and said nothing more.

When Mu Li received the news, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. He was worried that those people would find a problem from the mountain, but he didn't expect it to rain, and even the sky was helping him!

The confidant was also happy for Mu Li, "Third Prince, so the second prince was hit can be hidden from the world. My subordinates are wondering whether Miss Tang Yue is really a saint, why is she so blessed by God?"

The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, and Mu Li's face suddenly changes. Yes! The heaven may not be what he helped, he should have thought of!

"Miss Tang Yue has already set off?" Mu Li asked anxiously.

The man nodded, unable to understand why Mu Li suddenly became anxious, "Miss Tang Yue left at dawn, and he should have entered the mountain at this time."

Mu Li suddenly felt a little discouraged. He had known that he would have been bold enough to tell Yun Yue. Even if there was no possibility, at least some hope, now there is no chance.
