Chapter 316 Confinement



The emperor covered his head, feeling dizzy as he watched the scene below. He pointed at Yin Yichen and said, "Yi...Yichen..."

As soon as the emperor said this, all the lieutenant ministers below looked at him.

At this moment, the emperor hesitated to speak, but he didn't expect that the sub-emperor would cover his head and get off the dragon throne. He waved his hand and shouted to everyone, "Go down quickly, adjourn the court, adjourn the court..."

Seeing this, Yin Yichen realized that he could only reflect on his mistakes by facing the wall.

Yin Yichen turned around to look at Song Jing and Song Lan beside him, and said to Song Jing, "Father-in-law, I will be facing the wall in the palace to reflect on my mistakes. I will be able to leave the palace in a few days. Wan Ning is alone at home and is pregnant. Please take good care of her. Tell Wan Ning not to worry about me. I know everything."

"You know what's going on. How could you be locked up if you know what's going on?" Song Jing was helpless at this moment, but he still said, "Just wait. When the emperor is clear-headed, I will make a report and get you out. After all, you've offended Commander Gu because of the Pei family's affairs. The Pei family and ours are old friends, so this matter can't be blamed entirely on you."

Yin Yichen just smiled faintly and said to Song Jing, "Father-in-law, now everything is in your hands."

"Take good care of yourself in the palace, otherwise, Wan Ning will be heartbroken. You also know her temper, she will definitely not be honest. If you think about her, just protect yourself." Song Jing sighed and was about to say something when the guards on the side came forward.

"Prime Minister, please go ahead. If this continues for too long, I'm afraid His Majesty will blame us."

Seeing this scene, Yin Yichen immediately nodded to the imperial guards and followed them into the harem.

At this moment, Song Wanning was settling accounts in the Prime Minister's Mansion. She reached out to grab a cup of water from the table to drink. As soon as she reached out, she lost her balance and knocked the cup to the ground. The cup instantly shattered into pieces, and the hot water inside splashed everywhere.

Zhuque, who was waiting outside, heard the noise and hurried forward, saying to Song Wanning, "Madam, are you okay?"

"It's okay, I just accidentally broke a cup, I just need to clean it up." Song Wanning forced a smile and glanced outside. Seeing that it was getting late, she immediately said, "I'm afraid the court is about to end. Why hasn't anyone come back yet?"

"The Prime Minister is busy with official duties every day. I'm afraid he is now held up by important matters. Madam, don't worry, just wait patiently. It's not uncommon for him to come back late." Zhuque smiled at Song Wanning and comforted her.

Song Wanning didn't wait for Yin Yichen, but waited for Song Jing and Song Lan instead.

Caique ran in from outside, looked at Song Wanning and said, "Madam, Madam, the eldest and second masters are here, Madam, go and take a look."

After hearing this, Song Wanning began to feel a little uneasy. She immediately said to Zhuque who was standing beside her, "It's rare that my father and my eldest brother are here together. Let's go out and take a look."

After hearing this, Zhuque looked at Song Wanning and said, "Madam is right. Let's go out and take a look."

Song Wanning, supported by Zhuque, walked into the courtyard. Seeing Song Jing and Song Lan, both looking glum, she immediately had a bad feeling. She forced a smile at them and said, "Dad and Big Brother are here together today. I'm really surprised. I don't know why Big Brother and Dad are so anxious to come. Is there something important?"

Song Jing and Song Lan exchanged a glance, then addressed Song Wanning, "Wanning, there's something I need to tell you. This morning, the Prime Minister was reprimanded by His Majesty in the palace, and he's now been detained in the palace to reflect on his mistakes."

"Reflect on your mistakes facing the wall?" Song Wanning felt her eyes darken when she heard this, but she still forced a smile and said to Song Jing, "I just don't know why. It can't be because of saving Xuanzhi a few days ago, right?"

"It's because of this incident." Song Jing sighed and said slowly, "Your Majesty is trusting Gu Jie and Yu Meiren right now. Yi Chen saved Xuan Zhi, which made Gu Jie lose face, so he wanted to harm him. Fortunately, he is just facing the wall and reflecting on his mistakes. Wan Ning, you are pregnant now, so you should stay at home and take good care of the baby. Don't let other things upset the fetus. I will find a way to save Yi Chen."

Song Wanning looked at Song Jing, forced a smile, and said, "Father, I will take care of myself now."

Song Lan, who was standing by, looked at Song Wanning and said immediately, "You're pregnant now. I heard that relatives from the Prime Minister's Mansion are always coming to annoy you. I asked your sister-in-law to come and keep you company for a few days. She has a bad temper and would certainly not tolerate those who come to cause trouble. She can also help you vent your anger and prevent them from making any noise."

Song Wanning only chuckled twice when she heard this, and said to Song Lan, "Brother is really thoughtful. I also miss my sister-in-law, so I asked her to come over and help me. It's such a big house, but I don't even have anyone to talk to. If my sister-in-law comes, I will be happy and can eat an extra bowl of rice."

"When I get back, I'll say hello to her and ask her to come over." Song Lan felt very distressed when he saw Song Wanning's appearance.

Song Wanning saw all of this and said to Song Lan and Song Jing, "Don't worry, I'm not a little girl anymore. I will naturally take care of myself."

When Song Lan heard Song Wanning say this, he nodded immediately, "If you can think it through, Daddy and I won't be so anxious about you. We just have to wait for the current storm to pass, and our family will be the same as before."

After hearing this, Song Wanning smiled and said softly, "Now that big brother and father are here, and sister-in-law will be here soon, I am not afraid at all. Father and big brother, just rest assured."

Seeing her like this, Song Jing and Song Lan felt relieved and returned to the general's mansion.

Song Wanning didn't have to wait long at home before Lu Zijun arrived in a carriage. Lu Zijun quickly got off the carriage and said to Song Wanning, "Wanning, Wanning, I'm here. I heard your elder brother talk about what happened at the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I came to stay with you for a few days."
