The emperor saw that Liu Sheng and Nangong Muyun were both pleading for Ye Qingwan, and thought that what they said was right. Ye Qingwan was insignificant. But she was backed by the prime minister, so she couldn't be easily dealt with.
After all, now is not the time to break off relations with the prime minister, so he quickly took advantage of the situation and said.
"As Liu Aiqing requested, we will first detain Ye Qingwan and then convict her after we have investigated the whole matter."
After that, he had Ye Qingwan taken away, and ordered Liu Sheng to investigate the matter. As for the prime minister, he had already locked up the other person's daughter, so he should comfort her more at this time.
Giving a candy with a big stick is the etiquette of checks and balances between the ruler and his subjects.
"Lord Ye, don't worry too much. Lord Liu is very capable and will investigate thoroughly. He will definitely not wrongly accuse you."
At this point, this is the best solution, and the Prime Minister can only thank the Emperor for his grace.
In fact, he knew very well that this incident, on the surface, was aimed at Wan'er, but in reality the other party's target was him.
Otherwise, how could Xia Xuejian, a mere concubine's daughter, have the ability to invite Hua Tuo?
And that prescription for curing malaria came so strangely, everything seemed so complicated.
After everyone had left, He Daoren showed up at the inn that hosted Mr. Sai Huatuo.
The old man was obviously a little angry: "Did you design this?"
He Daoren stood respectfully at the side, head bowed, hands crossed in front of him: "Old sir, this is the master's intention, I dare not disobey."
"So you dare to lie to me?" The old man stood up angrily, pointed at him and wanted to curse him, but he was kind-hearted by nature and didn't even know how to curse, so he could only sulk by himself.
Seeing him staggering, He Daoren was so frightened that he rushed over to help him, but he was pushed away by him with a palm: "Don't touch me, you did such a dirty thing, and even deceived me into becoming your helper, it's simply unreasonable."
"Don't think that I don't know what you want to do. You are falsely accusing that little girl. In fact, you want to take advantage of the Prime Minister's love for his daughter and force him to confess his crime. Then you can take the opportunity to overthrow the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"That little girl surnamed Ye, although she behaved wildly, she would rather be wronged than take all the blame and clear her father and the prime minister's house. Compared with you, she is a world apart."
The old man cursed until he ran out of energy, so he sat back down on the table, "You can go now. Today I have paid off what I owe to your sect."
He Daoren was scolded so badly that he could only leave in disappointment.
After a while, the medicine boy came in and wanted to pour him a cup of tea to calm him down, but the old man held him back and asked, "Are you also from the sect?"
The medicine boy knew that the truth had been revealed, and he was so scared that he fell to his knees and said, "Grandmaster, I know I was wrong."
The old man closed his eyes and sighed deeply: "So you tell me about the little girl from the Xia family every day, how she was wronged and how she was bullied by the little girl from the Ye family, just to make me have a bad impression of the little girl from the Ye family, so that you can make things difficult for her after the incident?"
"Grandmaster!"
"You can go too, and don't come back to the mountain gate again." After saying that, he kicked him out directly, and even though he knelt at the door and begged, he remained unmoved.
Hua Tuo had saved countless lives in his life and was always kind to others. He had never criticized his disciples, especially his disciples. But now that it came to a matter of principle, he would not be merciful.
If such a person with bad character is left at the mountain gate, there will probably be endless troubles in the future.
Actually, if you really think about it, it's not his fault, because everything he said was true, and he saw it with his own eyes.
Before coming to Beijing, he did receive the letter and prescription from the Xia family's maid, and he did study the contents of the prescription before deciding to go to Beijing.
Firstly, it was to protect the people of Liming from malaria, and secondly, it was to support the girl from the Xia family, as he didn't want her to be bullied by the girl from the Ye family again.
That was why he specifically asked the girl from the Ye family to enter the palace for the banquet, intending to let the girl see his relationship with the girl from the Xia family, and ask the girl to consider his feelings and not embarrass the girl Xia in the future.
Who would have thought that he was just a pawn of others and was played around by them, and finally indirectly harmed the little girl from the Ye family.
I am wrong, I am wrong. How can I have the dignity to continue staying in the capital?
So he left the capital alone that night. He did not go back to the mountain gate, but wandered around the world and made the world his home.
Ye Qingwan was once again imprisoned in the prison. She was familiar with this place as she had stayed there for a night last time.
"Hello, fellow officers."
She was so happy that if you didn't know her, you would think she was here to take up her new position.
Ye Qingwan was no longer reserved. She sat down in the cell and took off the gold hairpin on her head and handed it to the officer: "Please buy me a roast chicken. The rest of the officers can buy some wine."
The police didn't dare to offend her. Who knows if this young lady will be released again tomorrow? It's better not to offend her.
Section 48
They had not forgotten the last time she refused to leave. So they quickly took her over and went to buy her a roast chicken and some wine. They even let her out and ate meat with them at the table.
Ye Qingwan also figured it out. The reason why Liu Sheng and the Ninth Prince pleaded for her was probably to pave the way for the subsequent plot.
Because as I said just now, although the prescription can cure malaria, the effect is very strong, so it is of course fine for people with strong bodies to take it.
However, people with malaria often have high fever and chills, and their bodies are exhausted. How can they withstand such a strong drug effect? Therefore, if this prescription is used, there will definitely be trouble.
What to do? Of course, she, the vicious female supporting role, should take the blame.
So, now she cannot be exiled, and she has to be slapped in the face and arrested again, so that the plot can be completed.
As for Liu Sheng and the Ninth Prince, you say they are crooked, and they are indeed crooked. It seems that no matter what they do, they are always going against her. I don't know what's wrong with them.
But if you say they are not crooked, it seems that they are not crooked. Every time they go against her. But in the end, the plot is really rounded off. Isn't it amazing?
So Ye Qingwan is out, it doesn’t matter whether her character is distorted or not, what’s important is that the plot fits, then everyone is happy.
After Ye Qingwan had eaten and drunk her fill, she went back to jail. The officer was so considerate and brought her two quilts, a mattress and a coverlet. He was so thoughtful.
Now going to jail has become so humane.
I was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night, but my nose suddenly felt itchy. Then I yawned and woke up. When I opened my eyes, I saw an enlarged face staring at me.
Ghost!
