Chapter 205 Lingchi execution of Ye Wanhe was a bargain for her
"Why do you want to take my pulse?"
Gu Yan's words rang out from behind them.
Gu Jingyu looked at Gu Yan and said, "Sister-in-law suspects that you are infertile. Let me take your pulse."
Gu Yan glared at Yun Xiangye and said, "I'm in good health, how can I not give birth?"
Yun Xiangye touched his nose and said, "I'm just speculating."
Gu Jingyu smiled at Gu Yan and said, "Brother, don't be afraid to see a doctor. I'll take your pulse."
Gu Yan said: "No need, no need at all, you can take Jingru back."
Gu Jingyu said: "It is a big taboo to hide your illness and avoid seeing a doctor. Don't you really want me to take your pulse?"
Gu Yan said: "No need!"
Gu Jingyu just smiled and said, "Well, Jingru and I will go to accompany mother. Without father, mother must be lonely."
Gu Yan said: "That's not the case. I just met my mother at the door. My mother, Princess Chu and my aunt went out for a spring outing today. They are so free."
Xiao Jingru opened her eyes wide and said, "Mom is lying."
Xiao Jingru hurried off to look for her mother who had left her behind to go out for fun.
Gu Jingyu hurriedly followed.
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but chuckle.
Gu Yan put his arm around Yun Xiangye's waist and rested his head on her shoulder. "I didn't try hard enough, and you thought I was sick. I will try harder in the next few days so that you can get pregnant with a younger brother or sister soon."
Yun Xiangye said: "I just said it casually..."
Before Yun Xiangye could finish what she was going to say, Gu Yan picked her up and carried her into the house.
--
When boating in spring, both sides of the river are lined with sprouting weeping willows.
On the deck, Zhao Yun looked into the distance, regretting that the official ship was moving too slowly.
"Brother Yun, this is the pear paste soup I cooked for you. It's good for your throat. Have some."
Zhao Yun turned around and looked at Yu Xihe who was coming over, feeling a little dazed. That day, Ye Wanhe had also fed him tea containing fake death medicine in such a gentle way.
Zhao Yun did not take the pear paste soup from Yu Xihe's hand. He just walked into the cabin and wrote a few words, "How many days are left before arriving in Chang'an?"
Yu Xihe said: "If everything goes smoothly, it will take at least a month."
Zhao Yun frowned slightly, but he could only let the boat sway and move slowly.
I wonder if the scenery on both sides of the river that Ye Wanhe saw when she came to Chang'an by boat was the same.
Yu Xihe asked, "You are in a hurry to go to Chang'an, do you want to meet someone?"
Zhao Yun wrote on the paper: "I am anxious to see my wife and children."
Yu Xihe saw the smiling look in Zhao Yun's eyes when he wrote the word "wife" and said softly, "Your wife should also be looking forward to your early return home."
Zhao Yun couldn't help but smile. Ye Wanhe was probably just hoping that he would never go back.
Yu Xihe asked, "You said your wife's name also has the character 禾 in it. What's her name?"
Zhao Yun picked up the pen and wrote on the white paper: "Ye Wanhe."
Yu Xihe raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw the name. Could it be that her and her brother's guess was wrong? The current Crown Princess's surname is Wei.
The more Yu Xihe looked at the name, the more familiar it seemed to her. "This name sounds so familiar, Ye Wanhe... Isn't Zhimiao's sister called Wanhe? She entered the palace to work in her early years..."
Yu Xihe thought about what her brother had said about the secret of the current Crown Princess. Although she was claimed to be the daughter of the Wei family, she was actually a palace maid of humble origins.
This wouldn't be a coincidence, right?
It turns out that Ye Zhimiao’s sister is the Crown Princess?
How could Ye Wanhe leave her parents behind and travel thousands of miles to find them, and recognize the Duke of Wei's mansion as her natal family? Could she be so unfilial for the position of Crown Princess?
After hearing what Yu Xihe said, Zhao Yun didn't write anything else.
There was a ship approaching them.
As the large ship approached their ship, Zhao Yun wrote on a piece of paper: "Drop anchor nearby."
After the boat stopped, the big ship gradually approached. Some black-clothed guards came onto Zhao Yun's boat one after another. When they saw Zhao Yun on the deck, they hurriedly knelt down in front of Zhao Yun.
Gu Ling came over and knelt down in front of Zhao Yun and said, "I am late in coming to your rescue. I hope Your Highness will punish me."
Zhao Yun hurried forward and helped up the kneeling Gu Ling.
Although the two siblings of the Yu family had already guessed Zhao Yun's identity, they were still shocked when they saw this scene.
After Gu Ling checked Zhao Yun's pulse, he took out a pill from the side and said, "This is the antidote your aunt prepared for you. Jingyu is simple-minded. She didn't expect that the Crown Princess wanted the mute potion for you. If she knew, she would definitely not give the poison to the Crown Princess."
Yu Xihe, who was standing by, widened her eyes when she heard Gu Ling's words.
Yu Xihe always thought that Zhao Yun and his wife were deeply in love, which was why Zhao Yun wrote that he would only have one wife in his life. However, she didn't expect that he was actually poisoned and silenced by the Crown Princess?
Zhao Yun took the pill that Gu Ling handed over and had a hint of doubt.
Gu Ling smiled helplessly and said, "Your Highness, I watched you being born and growing up. Don't you even believe me?"
After Zhao Yun swallowed the antidote, he wanted to speak, but he couldn't. He just felt his throat getting more and more painful.
After a long pause, he finally spoke hoarsely: "Uncle, how did you know I was still alive?"
Gu Ling said: "What the Crown Princess said."
Zhao Yun was stunned. "She didn't expect me to die? I thought she would think about my suffering every day, but I didn't expect her to be honest. Is she really not afraid of being killed by my father? How is she now?"
Gu Ling said: "Your whereabouts have not been found. The reputation of the Crown Prince's biological mother must not be damaged, so as not to cause unrest in the court. She is now under house arrest in the East Palace. How to deal with her will have to wait until you return to the palace to discuss it."
Gu Ling looked at Zhao Yun, "Have you thought about how to deal with her?"
Zhao Yun said, "Abolish the position of Crown Princess, and execute Ye Wanhe by skinning her alive and slicing her to death. These punishments are too easy for her. She thinks about leaving the palace day and night, but I want her to stay in the East Palace for the rest of her life, and be the Crown Princess she doesn't want to be, and suffer all kinds of torture beside me!"
Gu Ling: “…”
She was tortured to be the high and mighty Crown Princess, and being executed by slow slicing was a bargain for her...
Gu Ling coughed and said, "Your Highness, if you punish the Crown Princess like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for His Majesty and the Queen to explain it?"
Zhao Yun said: "I will naturally explain it to my father and mother."
Gu Ling smiled helplessly and shook his head, "This boat is really too slow. Your Highness, please get on the carriage and hurry back to Chang'an as soon as possible. His Majesty and the Queen are very worried about you."
Zhao Yun nodded and said, "Well, I want to return to Chang'an as soon as possible and seek revenge on Ye Wanhe!"
"Brother Yun." Yu Xihe walked up to Zhao Yun and said, "Let me ride in the carriage with you to Chang'an."
Zhao Yun said to Gu Ling: "Uncle, bring these two siblings along as well."
Gu Ling responded: "Yes."
Zhao Yun paused and said, "Oh, by the way, uncle, send two more guards to the Zhu family in Yongxing City to summon the second young master and second lady of the Zhu family winery to Chang'an to see me."
Gu Ling agreed again: "Okay."
After Zhao Yun got off the boat, he boarded a Ferghana horse and rode at full speed towards Chang'an, eager for revenge.
