The next day.
Yu Yiluo, who was taken to court, kept yawning.
The tyrant holding her was in high spirits, smiling at the ministers below.
"Submit your report!"
Grand Tutor Fang stepped forward and bowed.
"I wonder what crime the Empress has committed that the Emperor wants to put her under house arrest?"
The others began to murmur when they heard this.
"Grand Tutor, are you meddling in my family affairs?" The Emperor interrupted the lively discussions in the hall.
He didn't believe that old Master Fang didn't know about it and was still playing tricks on him.
"The Queen is the mother of a country. This old minister is talking about state affairs. The Emperor should give this old minister an explanation."
The emperor sneered, "The queen is killing the royal heir. If she weren't the queen, I would have killed her directly."
As he said this, he took the figurine handed to him by Eunuch Cao and threw it in front of Grand Tutor Fang.
"Take a good look. When I went there last night, I saw the Queen was getting a tattoo for quite a while."
The ministers at the back all stuck their heads out and saw the little man on the ground covered with needles, then they shut their mouths in disappointment.
Prime Minister Li stepped forward, picked up the little figure from the ground, and handed it to Grand Tutor Fang. "Grand Tutor, take a good look at it."
"Your Majesty, this is a misunderstanding. Everyone knows what kind of person the Queen is."
My daughter is a smart person, she can't be so stupid.
Grand Tutor Fang held up the figurine in his hand and said, "It's said that a husband and wife are bound by love for a hundred days. The Emperor punished the Empress without even investigating. This is really hard to convince the public."
[Tsk tsk, is it hard to convince others or you? Don't you know what your daughter is like?]
"It's hard to convince everyone?" The emperor glanced at everyone, "Do you all have any objections to my punishment of the queen?"
The ministers shook their heads repeatedly. The queen was the daughter of the Grand Tutor, not their daughter, and they didn't want to get involved.
Even the way everyone was avoiding him made Master Fang frown.
"It seems that the Grand Master is the only one who is dissatisfied. You are old, so I will allow you to retire and return home! Don't worry about the affairs of the court."
Grand Master Fang is about to unleash his ultimate weapon. Every time the tyrant asks him to retire, he takes advantage of his age and acts like a tyrant, only to have the matter resolved in vain.
Yu Yiluo blinked her round eyes and looked at Master Fang who had a grim expression on his face.
[Gathering strength, about to begin. 】
A special move, and it's still charging?
The emperor immediately stared at the Grand Tutor with a wary look on his face. Could it be that the old man was going to assassinate him?
As a result, the Grand Tutor looked sad and angry.
"Your Majesty wants me to retire and return home, but you might as well take my life. If Your Majesty does not revoke your order, I will kill myself right here."
emperor:"……"
So this is his ultimate move. This old guy has used it quite a lot.
At that time, it was only for the Queen's sake that she allowed him to take advantage of his seniority.
After hearing this, the other ministers calmed down and looked like they were enjoying the show.
This was not the first time that the Grand Tutor had acted like this, and they were no longer surprised.
Every time he did this, the emperor no longer mentioned letting him retire and return home.
After the Grand Tutor finished speaking, the Emperor did not try to stop him as he had done before, but nodded with interest.
"Hit it!"
These two simple words made the Grand Tutor unable to advance or retreat.
He still values his life. Now he has wealth and glory, but he does not want to give up the power in his hands, so he resorts to this desperate measure.
When he was hesitant, Prime Minister Li said, "Grandmaster, if you want to hit me, do it now."
He knew very well that Grand Tutor Fang would not collide with him, so he just wanted to watch the fun and said, "If he doesn't collide with us, we can continue to make our memorial."
Master Fang was in a dilemma, so he gritted his teeth and charged forward.
[Hahaha, Prime Minister Li is enjoying the fun and is roasting Grand Tutor Fang!]
Seeing that Grand Tutor Fang really bumped into them, some ministers were frightened and their faces changed.
With a loud "bang", Master Fang was hit so hard that he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Prime Minister Li grabbed him and asked, "Are you okay?"
When some ministers saw this, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, so they had to hold it in.
"Come here," the emperor shouted outside the palace, "send the Grand Tutor back home. From today on, you will be stripped of your title and not allowed to enter the palace without a summons."
Master Fang wanted to shout a few times and resist.
But I felt dizzy and couldn't speak.
......
After leaving court.
Lord Qin went to the imperial study with the emperor.
"Has anything unusual happened since the Heavenly Prison relaxed its rules?"
The emperor took a sip of tea and asked calmly.
"Your Majesty, no."
Suddenly, something popped up in Lord Qin's mind. "Oh, I remember Minister Zhang said he met Commander Deng on his way back to the prison, and they chatted for a while."
He didn't know if this was unusual.
"Release the maid who was imprisoned with Concubine Xian, and let her see Concubine Xian before releasing her."
Lord Qin will release Haitang when he returns.
Haitang was led out of the cell with a bewildered look on her face. The guard next to her pushed her and said, "Hurry up and leave."
Because she was injured, the jailer happened to touch her wound and she gasped in pain.
"Brother, where are you taking me? Can I go out now?"
She hasn't slept well these past few days and doesn't know how the Empress is doing.
"Well," the jailer said sparingly and continued to urge her to walk faster.
Haitang pursed her lips, took off the bracelet on her hand and handed it to the jailer, begging, "Brother jailer, can you let me go see Concubine Xian?"
Afraid that the other party would not agree, she quickly promised, "I'll just watch for a while, okay?"
The jailer glanced at the bracelet on his hand and said mercifully, "Go. Lord Qin will release you because you have nothing to do with this matter. Don't stay here too long."
Haitang didn't notice the sneer on the jailer's lips after she left.
......
Go to the place where Concubine Xian is imprisoned.
By the dim light of the sky.
Haitang looked at Concubine Xian, who was curled up in a ball with disheveled hair. If her body had not been slightly moving, Haitang would have thought she was dead.
"My queen, my queen."
Haitang called out twice in a low voice, and Concubine Xian gently moved her body and turned to look in the direction where the voice came from.
Seeing Haitang at the door, his eyes, which were as dull as dead as ashes, suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but move faster.
"Haitang, it's really you."
In the past few days, Lord Qin and Minister Zhang took turns interrogating her. She didn't want to admit to plotting to murder the emperor. After all, she really had no intention of taking action against the emperor at the moment. But the two men would not stop until they got something out of her, so she had no choice but to admit it.
And make it clear that this matter has nothing to do with Haitang, so that she at least has a glimmer of hope.
Now that she saw Haitang, she was even more certain that what she did was right.
"My Lady, I have been released. What should I do to rescue you?"
Although the queen has a bad temper, she has never treated her badly. Now that she has saved her, she cannot ignore her.
"This palace..." After not drinking water for a few days, Concubine Xian felt her throat hurt as if she had swallowed a knife, and every word she spoke was torture.
"I will go find the Third Prince and ask him to rescue you, Your Majesty."
Haitang grabbed Concubine Xian's hand, but saw Concubine Xian shaking her head.
"Go find Commander Deng and Yang Xin," Concubine Xian spoke with difficulty, "If you go directly to the Third Prince, he may not try to save me."
