Seeing Madam Yao stand up, Shen Yu turned around and was about to leave, but when she found that Madam Yao had just stood up, she fainted from crying.
Seeing this, Yao Xuan felt even more guilty.
If she had resolutely told her father when she found out that the prince was planning a rebellion, instead of listening to the sweet words of Prince Yueqing and giving up the idea, would she not have suffered all this torture?
There is also the mine in the hands of Prince Yueqing. Given Prince Yueqing's ruthlessness, he will definitely not tell my father that he discovered the mine on the Yao family's territory.
I don’t know how far the Prince of Yueqing has gone in his conspiracy.
Shen Yu looked at the fainted Madam Yao with a headache, then turned to look at Yao Xuan.
"You'd better stay alive so that you can have the chance to see Prince Yueqing pay the price."
After saying that, he struggled to pick up Mrs. Yao and carried her out of the secret room.
Yao Xuan lowered her eyes. If it weren't for this day, she wouldn't be living like a ghost, neither human nor ghost.
…
In the palace.
The secret guard reported everything that happened in the palace to the emperor.
"Are you saying that the Prince of Yueqing tortured his princess beyond repair and locked her in a secret room?"
The secret guard nodded. Prince Yueqing was at home before, and he was afraid of being discovered so he did not go near Prince Yueqing's room.
Today, I followed Shen Yu into the secret room during the chaos and saw Yao Xuan, who was tortured beyond recognition. I didn't know why Yao Xuan was treated like this.
[Did Madam Yao finally see Yao Xuan? What a pity, even if she did, she couldn't save her.]
The Prince of Yueqing was truly ruthless. Just because he had discovered a mine that the Yao family hadn't yet discovered, and he wanted to take it for himself, he deliberately fabricated an incident of rebellion, pretending that Yao Xuan had heard it, and then used this excuse to torture Yao Xuan.
Yao Xuan's lucid time is decreasing, and it's unclear how much longer she can hold on.
[Haha, Prince Yueqing is still meeting Yang Xin at Baiyun Temple. He didn't expect his home to be robbed.]
The emperor frowned. General Yao had been loyally stationed in the northern border without any complaints. Now that his daughter was being tortured like this, no one could accept it.
"Try every possible means to rescue Yao Xuan." The secret guard received the order and left.
At this time, the King of Yueqing, who was unaware that his house had been stolen, was still chatting with Yang Xin.
"Miss Yang, I wonder how your persuasion to Lord Yang went?"
Yang Xin lowered his eyes. "The prince doesn't have enough strength, so father naturally has to consider it. Otherwise, like Chen Huai or Meng You, they will be used and then thrown away by the prince. That would be more trouble than it's worth. Isn't that right, prince?"
Prince Yueqing nodded in agreement, "Indeed, let's just treat this as a casual chat today."
"Your Highness, you are here today to burn incense for the deceased princess. Isn't that just a small talk?"
He came to burn incense and asked her out at the same time, probably to show how affectionate he was.
"I asked Miss Yang out because I thought we would get along very well," Prince Yueqing stared at Yang Xin. "In fact, I was thinking that marrying Miss Yang wouldn't be a bad thing."
Yang Xin looked back openly, her tone without a trace of fluctuation, "I am grateful that Your Highness has taken a liking to me. Whether it's your looks or your status, I can't even dream of matching you."
Did he really think she didn't know what kind of person he was? Yang Xin sneered in her heart. He actually wanted to tease her. It was ridiculous.
"Then I will allow you to dream about it." Prince Yueqing curled his lips. "What do you think, Miss Yang?"
He really admired Yang Xin's calmness and composure, and he felt very relaxed when they chatted. If he really married Yang Xin as a concubine, he would not only be able to pull the Yang family to his side, but also have a virtuous wife to help him, which seemed not bad.
"It's not a big deal," Yang Xin stood up and looked down at Prince Yueqing. "We are partners. If Your Highness wants to entertain someone, you can find someone else. Or, I would be happier if you put your mind to other things."
Looking at Yang Xin's departing back, Prince Yueqing put away the smile on his face.
Smart people are different. Shen Yu, that idiot, is easy to deceive. She is willing to be his concubine after just one meeting.
"Let's go back home."
…
When Prince Yueqing returned to the palace, he saw a group of servants who had not had time to wash their faces.
They were all covered in dust and dirt.
"What's going on?" He frowned and looked at everyone.
Someone stepped forward and told the king what had happened. The king's brows were furrowed so much that they could kill a fly.
Shen Yu is really capable. He is crazy but still doesn't know how to be content.
"You said Madam Yao fainted at the mansion. What happened?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Mrs. Yao was about to leave, but when she knew Shen Yu's yard was on fire, she asked her maid to go and put out the fire. After the fire was put out, she found that Mrs. Yao had fainted in the main hall."
After hearing this, Prince Yueqing took his subordinates directly to the Yao Mansion to see Madam Yao.
"How is my mother-in-law?"
"Your Highness, the doctor said that Madam is overly worried."
Prince Yueqing glanced at the unconscious Madam Yao and left the Yao Mansion.
Shen Yu was missing last time, and this time when the fire broke out, Shen Yu was also missing. Prince Yueqing quickened his pace and walked to the main hall.
There was a voice in his heart telling him that Shen Yu could not stay.
"Your Majesty, once is a coincidence, what about twice?" The subordinate raised his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck. "Anyway, Mrs. Yao is too busy to take care of herself now, so why not take Shen Yu..."
He always felt that Shen Yu could not stay, and hoped that the prince would be smarter this time and kill Shen Yu.
Prince Yueqing nodded and said, "Go ahead and do it."
Before the subordinates could leave, someone brought Lord Du in.
"Your Majesty, I am following the Emperor's orders to bring the criminal Shen Yu back to the Dali Temple."
Lord Du was also puzzled. The emperor had not mentioned Shen Yu for a long time. He thought the emperor had forgotten Shen Yu, but he did not expect that he would suddenly ask him to come to the palace to take the person back today.
"Shen Yu is crazy," Prince Yueqing felt that everything was too coincidental. First it was Shen Yu, and then he wanted to kill Shen Yu, but Lord Du got involved again.
Did the emperor deliberately put Shen Yu in his house?
"It's okay. I'm only responsible for bringing the person back."
Prince Yueqing and his subordinates looked at each other, and took Lord Du to Shen Yu's yard.
Hearing the footsteps, Shen Yu sat on the ground nervously.
Prince Yueqing will definitely suspect her this time, so she has to find a way to get someone to rescue her.
Du Shuyan, the other party must have a way to save her.
The door was pushed open, and the sunlight shone on the burned floor. Shen Yu raised his head and saw Lord Du next to King Yueqing. He knew in his heart that his life was saved.
"Take the person away." Lord Du said nothing more and asked someone to take Shen Yu and leave directly.
Prince Yueqing clenched his fists tightly and cursed in his heart, "Damn it!"
Why do you have to take him away now?
He suddenly remembered something and ran back to his room without caring about anything else.
Could it be that Shen Yu discovered that Yao Xuan was hidden in the secret room by him? In this case, it would explain why Shen Yu was suddenly taken away, and why Mrs. Yao suddenly fainted. Could it be that she saw Yao Xuan?
"My Lord, what's wrong?"
The subordinate caught up and asked in confusion.
"It's okay, just stand guard at the door."
After entering the room and closing the door, he opened the wardrobe and checked carefully, only to find that the mechanism could not be opened at all.
Why can’t it be opened?
He pressed it again, but still no response.
