"I...I dare not...it was an emergency..."
"What's so urgent? Is the country about to perish?!" Chu Younan's voice became even more fierce.
Ruan Ningyun was so frightened that she didn't dare to get up. Her knees were pressed tightly against the cold ground, and the cold air penetrated into her bones.
"I dare not..."
"It was you who asked the Queen Mother to hide away?" Chu Younan said coldly.
"I dare not..." Ruan Ningyun trembled.
"Do you think I will lose?!" Chu Younan asked.
"Your servant..." Ruan Ningyun collapsed on the ground.
A beautiful dream was shattered just like that.
"You are punished to not leave Wanfu Palace for three months and copy the scriptures a thousand times!"
Finally, Chu Younan left after saying this.
Ruan Ningyun didn't say anything, because she fainted again...
It's still the same poison, and there's still no antidote, but if I drink some medicine prescribed by the imperial physician, I'll wake up in a while.
But when she woke up, she found herself lying alone on the bed in Wanfu Palace, and her heart became even colder.
"Chun'er, when did the emperor leave last night?" Ruan Ningyun asked unwillingly.
Chun'er lowered her head. "I just heard the emperor tell you to copy the scriptures, and then he left. When I came in, I saw you lying on the ground..."
Ruan Ningyun's heart became even colder...
She had thought about it countless times before, that one day she would faint in front of Chu Younan, and he would hold her in his strong arms, but he seemed not to take her seriously at all.
Which evil person gave her this poison?
Although people live in the same palace, they are treated differently.
Although Su Bei had given birth for the second time, Chu Younan was still very concerned about her. He did not trust the imperial physician to help with the treatment, so he specially asked Su Xiujie to stay in the palace to help her with the treatment.
As soon as he saw Su Xiujie, Chu Younan thought of the medicine Su Bei mentioned.
"What medicine did the Queen ask you to prescribe for her?" Chu Younan asked curiously.
Su Xiujie hesitated, "It's just some medicine to regulate the body..."
Chu Younan thought he could read his thoughts, but he only heard him thinking "This can't be known to the Emperor"...
My curiosity is about to explode...
What kind of medicine is this? ! "I didn't hear that she was feeling unwell."
"She wants to beautify her face..." You can't know about this medicine, otherwise you will get angry with her...
"I think she is already very beautiful. Medicine is poisonous. There is no need to give her medicine."
"The herbs I used are all non-toxic..." Nonsense, she is already beautiful, if it weren't for you, would she still need this kind of medicine? !
Looks like we're getting close to the answer...
Chu Younan continued calmly, "Have you prepared the medicine?"
He just waited for Su Xiujie to say that it was ready, and then asked him to take a look at it, and then he would ask the imperial physician to take a look, and then it would be done.
But Su Xiujie shook his head, "I'm not in a hurry to use it right now, so I haven't prepared it yet."
"Then... wait until it's ready, let me see it first!" Chu Younan had no choice but to say so.
After everything was arranged here, he prepared to go to court, but before he reached the Golden Palace, he heard someone come to report that the Emperor of the Underworld wanted to see him.
Bei Yanming went to the palace early in the morning, probably because of something urgent.
Chu Younan had no choice but to meet him first.
Bei Yanming was always high-spirited, but today he was a little different, seeming a little frustrated, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! There was a commotion in the city last night, and Princess Anbang was kidnapped!"
If Chu Younan hadn't read his mind, he might have really been fooled by his acting skills.
Bei Yanming looked a little sad at this moment, as if he and Ruan Ningxiang had a deep relationship.
But he was secretly delighted in his heart, "Finally got rid of that ugly woman!"
"I will send someone to look for her as soon as possible." Chu Younan said in a deep voice.
"Yes, yes, this is about the diplomatic relations between Wu and Beidi. Please, Your Majesty, find her as soon as possible so that I can take her back to Beidi." Bei Yanming said hypocritically.
After seeing him off, Chu Younan went to court again.
All other matters in the court were put on the back burner today, and the first thing to be discussed was what to do with the Mo family father and son.
Some suggested immediate execution, some suggested exiling them to Ningguta, and some suggested that the execution should wait until autumn when the new emperor ascends the throne.
Chu Younan is more inclined to the first proposal.
Because Mo Gaishi has several sons, who might be hiding somewhere, so they have to be lurked out by chopping off Mo Gaishi's head.
So it was happily decided to behead him three days later.
I didn't expect that this father and son would continue to cause trouble in prison.
Upon hearing that there was trouble in the prison, Chu Younan rushed over in person.
It is not easy to see the emperor. Those death row prisoners all leaned on the railings and cried out that they were wronged.
But today seemed a little different. These people were so bold that they stretched out their hands to grab Chu Younan's robe.
Moreover, the injustice they spoke of did not seem so pitiful, but instead sounded murderous.
"Your Majesty, it's in the room in front." said the jailer.
Chu Younan dodged those outstretched hands and walked straight to the room in front.
He had ordered that the father and his two sons should be looked after separately, so he went to the room where Mo Liao was.
At this time, Mo Liao was lying on the ground motionless with a pool of blood beside him, and he looked like he was dead.
"After they came in, Mo Liao started arguing with Mo Gai Shi, but Mo Gai Shi seemed to know a lot of people in the prison. Some of the people who were in the same cell with Mo Liao couldn't stand him insulting his father, so they beat him up. We couldn't stop them, so they ended up like this..."
Chu Younan turned and looked at Mo Gaishi.
However, the old man, although with disheveled hair, was leaning calmly in the cell opposite. He did not look like he was in prison, but rather like he was on vacation.
"If you dare to disobey me, I will not let you go even if you are my son!" Mo Gaishi looked at Chu Younan provocatively.
The hidden meaning behind his words is that I didn't even let my own son go, so who do you think you are? I will kill you one day! Hearing him say this, the other prisoners seemed to become even more excited.
I don't know why they are so happy. Mo Gai Shi promised them that whoever follows the emperor and makes contributions will be appointed as the general of the country in the future. But if you use your toes to think about it, you will know that Mo Gai Shi can still get out this time? "He is your son. You can do whatever you want to him." Chu Younan chuckled. "Originally, it was planned to behead him in three days. Pass the order to behead them both immediately!"
Mo Gaishi's face changed.
The prisoner next to him was silent for a moment, and seemed to be starting to go a little crazy.
Some people tried to shake the fence, some wanted to catch Chu Younan, and some wanted to start looking for something to throw out.
Many people here were implicated because of buying and selling official positions. They were originally Mo Gaishi's subordinates. Mo Gaishi was their hope, but if they lost their heads, they would have no hope of living.
Chu Younan didn't take this little action seriously.
But suddenly, the door of the room where Mo Xiao was was suddenly knocked down...
