Chapter 304 Planning

Pei Luoshu felt very uncomfortable looking at the dazed Chen Shiyi.

"eleven…"

Chen Shiyi came to his senses.

"A Luo, you are the emperor of Daye, the most powerful person, is there nothing you can do?"

Pei Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Eleven, the laws of the country are as heavy as a mountain. No matter how powerful I am, I cannot violate them!"

Chen Shiyi felt extremely disappointed and upset. He stood up and was about to walk out.

Pei Luoshu shouted hurriedly.

"Eleven, where are you going?"

Chen Shiyi said with red eyes.

"I have to think of a solution. I can't just watch them die because of me. Otherwise, I will be unable to sleep or eat, and my life will be miserable."

Pei Luoshu hurriedly called her.

"eleven…"

All I saw was a hurried figure and the corner of his black clothes passing by the threshold of the courtyard.

Pei Luoshu was very upset and hurriedly called Yue Zhi.

"Send someone to watch her and don't let anything happen to her."

"yes."

Chen Shiyi and Fu Da rode their horses, preparing to return to Qingzhou.

"How is it?"

In response to Fudan’s question, Chen Shiyi shook his head slightly.

"Why? Can't Pei handle this?"

"It's not that he can't handle it, but it's a trap set by Grand Tutor Zhang. Mr. Situ's crime has been determined, and the whole family will be executed in ten days. We have to hurry back, and we have to gather enough people, so I'm afraid ten days won't be enough..."

Fu Da was very surprised.

"Why do you want to kill everyone in the family?"

"He was involved in the anti-China book and had connections with a cult. If he is found guilty, he will be put to death."

"So what now?"

Chen Shiyi was riding his horse quickly on the road when he suddenly pulled the reins.

In front, on the official road outside Kyoto, Wen Zhiheng, wearing a black cloak, sat on horseback, looking at Chen Shiyi with a worried look, and behind him, followed Qingsong.

Wen Zhiheng rode his horse to Chen Shiyi's side.

"Don't think about looking for evidence to overturn the verdict. It's useless. I can only delay the case for three days on the details. You know what to do."

Chen Shiyi raised his eyes and looked at him in shock.

"Thank you."

Wen Zhiheng nodded.

"Go quickly and be careful on your way."

After saying this, he rode his horse back to the inner city of Kyoto with Qingsong.

Chen Shiyi returned to Qingzhou City, his blue eyes turned cold.

"What happened? The day after you left, the higher-ups had already issued an order to execute Mr. Situ and his entire family."

Chen Shiyi's thoughts are very confused now, but she knows that she must calm down. Mr. Situ is waiting for her to save him, as is Mrs. Situ, and Ping'er.

They were sitting at a wonton stall not far from the Qingzhou prison.

"Qi Lan, the only way now is to rescue Mr. Situ from prison. Forget about overturning the verdict. Time is running out. Sneak into the prison tonight and tell Mr. Situ. Fu Da, help me find out the shift change times of the jailers. In addition to the people I left in Qingzhou, I also sent pigeon messengers to transfer people from Yuanzhou."

Fu Da asked, crossing his arms.

"It's not a problem to rescue him. The problem is how to place him, where to escape, and how to live in the future. Is he going to hide for the rest of his life?"

Qi Lan said coldly.

"It's better than death."

"We will go in three groups. There are many water routes in Qingzhou, and there is also a government road. Of course, these two are just pretexts. In the end, I will place them in the villa on Fengming Mountain."

"What?"

Both were shocked.

"The most dangerous place is the safest. Ping'er attracts too much attention. As long as he moves a little, he will definitely alarm others when passing through the various prefectures. The courtyard in Fengming Mountain has been robbed several times. They must have never thought that they would have the courage to go back and live there. Moreover, Fengming Mountain is behind them, and there are forests in the mountain. If they really encounter an uncontrollable situation, there is a way out. So after this storm is over, I will arrange for them to go to Yuanzhou and take a boat to that small country."

Fu Da thought about it.

"Okay, let's do it this way."

Qi Lan also echoed.

"Listen to Master Yuncang."

They rented a farmer's yard nearby as a place to stay.

Fu Da and Qi Lan were both busy with their own things, leaving Chen Shiyi in the yard when Yue Zhi came up to him.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty has asked me to take you back to the capital."

Chen Shiyi was writing and was very happy to see Yue Zhi coming.

"I'm glad you're here. I'm just short of manpower."

Yue Zhi spoke softly again.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty wants to take you back to the capital."

Chen Shiyi nodded.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go back with you guys after I'm done with this period of time."

Yue Zhi stood blankly in front of Chen Shiyi's desk, not saying a word. He just stood there.

Chen Shiyi raised his eyes and glanced at Yue Zhi with suspicion.

"Why, is there anything else?"

"His Majesty said that Your Majesty should not get involved in this matter, lest your life be in danger."

Chen Shiyi said "Oh".

"No matter what happens, Fu Da is by my side and can protect me. Besides, I have the ability to protect myself, so I am not afraid."

Yue Zhi suddenly didn't know what to say.

That day, His Majesty summoned me in a hurry.

"Arrange someone to follow her and make sure nothing happens to her."

He was about to make arrangements, but was ordered by His Majesty.

"You go there in person and bring her back. Tell her not to get involved in this matter. Master Zhang has already made a perfect plan. If she were to rob the prison, something terrible would happen."

At this moment, facing the empress with a calm face, he sighed in his heart.

He also knew about Situ Yu's affairs. His Majesty's actions were helpless. Matters in the court were very complicated and could not be explained in just a few words.

But he also admired the Queen's approach. When he worked under her in the past, the people under her were not afraid of her and always liked to play with her. But as long as she gave an order, they all tried their best to help her do everything well.

In all his years, he had never seen anyone have such a relationship.

They could be good friends or relatives, but they also regarded her as their master, willing to go through fire and water for her.

He had also received her favor before.

Now, she is working hard for Situ Yu again.

They are all blessed people.

Yue Zhi thought about it.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty hopes that you can return now. Do you understand what I mean?"

Chen Shiyi said without raising his head.

"I understand. Go back and tell him that I will come back after I finish my work. Don't stop me. Since you can't help me, go back and report first."

Yue Zhi was stunned for a moment, bowed to Chen Shiyi, and turned to leave the yard.

Chen Shiyi raised his head and watched Yue Zhi's departing back quietly, remaining silent for a long while.

Late at night, Qi Lan climbed into the yard from outside.

"Master Yuncang, something happened."

Chen Shiyi suddenly jumped up.

"What's wrong? Have you been discovered?"

Qi Lan shook his head.

"No, it's Mr. Situ."

"What happened to him? The people in the government office tortured him. Is it unknown whether he is dead or alive?"

Qi Lan also shook his head.

"I'm sure they'll use torture, but that's not important. The problem is..."

He glanced at Chen Shiyi.

"Mr. Situ won't cooperate with us in the prison break, he won't leave!"
