Du Shuyan felt a little uneasy after she finished speaking. Apart from this excuse, she really couldn't find any reasonable explanation.
It's impossible to say that it was Fengyuelou's mother who asked her to say that. If she really said that, the emperor would probably have him thrown out of the palace.
But it doesn't seem right to say so. Why would the emperor agree to try Prince Yueqing in front of all the civil and military officials just because of her words?
Du Shuyan suddenly said this. Could it be that the madam asked her to say this?
[Goodness, someone sends a pillow just when I feel sleepy. What a rotten luck this tyrant has.]
emperor:"……"
Can't you think of good words to praise him? What a shit luck.
But there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with saying this.
When Du Shuyan was anxiously thinking about the appropriate words, trying to get the emperor to agree, the emperor's majestic voice rang out.
"Miss Du, please go back and tell Lord Du that the Prince of Yueqing will be brought to trial in the Golden Throne Hall in three days in front of all the civil and military officials."
Du Shuyan was stunned for a moment. The emperor actually agreed?
She had heard correctly, the emperor was so easy to talk to.
Coming back to his senses, Du Shuyan hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
[Why three days later? Is three days later a good day?]
Yu Yiluo racked his brain, thinking about the reason, and soon he figured it out.
[Hahaha, only a tyrant can destroy a person's heart. Three days from now is Prince Yueqing's birthday, and my third brother and uncle should be back by then.]
The emperor raised his eyebrows. He really didn't remember that Prince Yueqing's birthday was three days later. He just wanted to wait for the third brother to come back and use the incident of Prince Yueqing to find out the person behind Changshan.
Luo'er said that this person likes to join in the fun, so he took advantage of the fun and killed two birds with one stone.
…
Du Shuyan returned to the Du Mansion, still in a daze.
That’s not right. She suddenly thought of something. Wasn’t there something wrong that the emperor summoned her into the palace?
But the emperor seemed to have said nothing from beginning to end.
"Yan'er?" Lord Du looked at Du Shuyan, whose expression kept changing. "Why did the emperor ask you to enter the palace?"
This child didn't say a word after coming back. Could it be that the emperor has granted Yan'er a marriage?
The emperor probably doesn't have the time to do this at this critical juncture.
Du Shuyan shook her head, and then told Lord Du about the conversation between her and the madam in Fengyue Tower.
"You said so?" Lord Du's tone was somewhat incredulous. Considering the way Du Shuyan had returned, he asked, "So you were reprimanded by the Emperor?"
Lord Du stroked his beard and sighed, "The matter of Prince Yueqing is already complicated. You directly let the emperor interrogate Prince Yueqing in front of all the civil and military officials. Isn't this a slap in the face of the emperor in public?"
"The emperor agreed and didn't scold me." Du Shuyan was worried that if she didn't speak up, her grandfather would comfort her.
Lord Du, who was about to say something, stopped at his beard and asked in surprise, "You said the emperor agreed?"
Didn't he say not to try her when he entered the palace? Why has he changed his mind now?
"Yes," Du Shuyan nodded, "The emperor said the trial will be held in three days."
Lord Du put away his surprised expression and stared at Du Shuyan seriously.
"Yan'er, do you trust her so much?"
Lord Du was worried that this would cause Du Shuyan to misunderstand, so he explained, "Grandfather just thinks this matter is very serious."
Even the Emperor couldn't touch Prince Yueqing, so how could the mother of a brothel have the ability to do that?
Du Shuyan understood his concerns, but since the emperor had agreed, he must have other plans in mind. How could someone in that position act impulsively?
"Grandfather, don't worry. The Emperor must have some plans in mind."
After the conversation, Du Shuyan sent someone to Fengyue Tower to say hello to Lord Du and then went to the Dali Temple to see Shen Yu.
Now that Prince Yueqing is locked up, Shen Yu is probably calling her a liar in her heart.
…
Shen Yu really thought so. Think about how she suffered so much to send Prince Yueqing to the Dali Temple, but the Dali Temple didn't even have the chance to try Prince Yueqing. So what was the point of her enduring humiliation for so long?
She pursed her lips and sat on the hay, secretly cursing Du Shuyan as a liar.
Seeing Shen Yu like this, King Yueqing felt a lot more comfortable.
"I told you it's too early to be happy," Prince Yueqing said, looking at her with a smile, "If you continue to act crazy, I might be able to spare your life."
Shen Yu was too lazy to lift his eyelids and sneered: "I don't think this is the end."
As for Prince Yueqing saying to spare her life?
Forget it, it’s just a worthless life, I have nothing left, what’s the point of living.
"Then we'll have to wait and see."
After Prince Yueqing raised his eyebrows and finished speaking, he heard footsteps. He turned his head to look at the aisle and saw the jailer leading Du Shuyan over.
"Miss Du, are you here to see me?"
Prince Yueqing called Du Shuyan and his eyes fell on her graceful figure.
"The prince seems to be in good health."
Du Shuyan stopped and looked back at King Yueqing with a curled lip.
"Thanks to Lord Du, everything is fine. Miss Du must be very disappointed."
It is impossible for Shen Yu, such a stupid person, to come up with a way to pretend to be crazy and stupid.
He thought about it these two days. The only time Shen Yu had contact with Du Shuyan during that period was when Du Shuyan came to his house. After that, Shen Yu went crazy.
"Disappointed?" Du Shuyan chuckled. "Not necessarily. The Emperor will interrogate the prince in the Golden Throne Hall in three days. I hope the prince will be as kind as him then."
Du Shuyan left these words and walked to the door of Shen Yu's prison, not caring what Prince Yueqing was thinking.
"Miss Du, do you really hope that something bad will happen to me? If it was you that Chen Huai sent here, you and I might still be a family."
"Your Highness, please conserve your strength for three days to plead your case."
Shen Yu was confused, but she captured the key information.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"When did I lie to you?" Du Shuyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Yu, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, right?"
She believed her mother would not joke about this.
There is no reason, I just believe that she won't lie to me.
"That's good," Shen Yu reacted to Du Shuyan's next words and stared at her, "Are you hinting at me?"
To be precise, it was a subtle satire on her and Prince Yueqing.
"Isn't it obvious?" Du Shuyan didn't refute her words. "Just because you had Prince Yueqing sent to the Dali Temple, it doesn't mean that the harm you and your mother have done to me can be wiped out."
She is not a good person. She will remember any harm done to her by others and return it to them.
Shen Yu had no expression on his face. "So you came here today to talk about this?"
Du Shuyan nodded. "I guess so. I'm trying to see how much time you have left to live. It looks like you don't have many days left."
Shen Yu narrowed his eyes and laughed softly.
"You know me quite well, but don't be too proud. Although Shen Huai did treat me poorly in the end, I won in the end."
After all, it is true that Shen Huai loves her since she was a child.
"If you think you can win, then you win."
Du Shuyan said this and turned to leave the Dali Temple.
Shen Yu has always liked to compete with her since childhood, and she has become accustomed to it.
