Chapter 256 Ye Wudi was captured



Chapter 256 Ye Wudi was captured

Ever since she made a fool of herself at the Crown Princess' tea party and was reprimanded by the nanny sent by the Emperor, Princess Xinyue behaved herself for a while. However, she still hated Jian Yue in her heart.

On that day, the imperial physician did not find any poison in her body. But at night, when the poison was about to disappear, Princess Xinyue, who did not believe in evil, secretly went to find Yi Tianxiao. Yi Tianxiao found a weak poison in her body.

Yi Tianxiao was very interested in this kind of poison that could disappear automatically, but unfortunately, when he wanted to extract a sample, the poison in Princess Xinyue's body had completely disappeared.

Who is Princess Xinyue? If she doesn't take advantage, she will suffer a loss. Moreover, she has fallen into such a big trap. During this period, she has been sending people to secretly monitor Jian Yue, hoping to find a chance to get back at her.

No, the opportunity has come.

Princess Xinyue called her trusted maid and asked her to go out and find someone with the silver note.

After the dowry issue was settled, Jian Yue had been waiting for news from Qiongzhou.

Ji Yunzhong seemed to be very busy these days and did not come to the Princess's Mansion for meals.

Yan Xiuyuan and the Xie family breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Jian Yue would be quiet after receiving such a huge sum of money.

At the grand court meeting, General Rong and the Second Prince's party demanded the Second Prince's release. The reason they gave was that the Second Prince was deceived and did not know that the people around him were poisoners. They also pushed out a housekeeper from the Second Prince's mansion to take the blame.

Emperor Jingzhen looked at Rong Taiwei for a long time without saying anything. However, the crown prince stepped out and asked to search Taiwei's mansion, on the grounds that someone saw the poisoner Yan Xinning escape into Taiwei's mansion.

What General Rong did not expect was that Emperor Jingzhen immediately approved the prince's request.

Within half an hour, a team of imperial guards drove directly into the Taiwei Mansion.

The masters in the Taiwei Mansion were all frightened by this sudden change. They stared blankly at the Imperial Guards searching the mansion, huddled aside, and no one dared to question them.

Even Rong Yao, whose hands and feet had just been restored, had lost his former arrogance and hid behind his servants with his head down.

The second prince has been imprisoned, and the aunt in the palace has been demoted. Their confidence has been cut by two-thirds, and they can no longer be as arrogant and domineering as before.

The Imperial Guards did not find Yan Xinning in the Taiwei Mansion, but they did find Ye Wudi. After Ye Wudi introduced himself, the leader of the Imperial Guards did not make things difficult for him and politely invited him into the government office.

Ye Wudi was very cooperative and even admitted that he was the one who created the poisoner. However, it was not intentional, but he wanted to save people, so the poisoned person accidentally became the poisoner. As for why Yan Xinning sneaked into the palace to frame Doctor Mao, he didn't know. Because since he came to Shangjing, he has been living in the Taiwei Mansion and has never gone out.

The leader of the Imperial Guards reported the truth to Emperor Jingzhen.

When Jian Yue learned the news, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

With the power of General Rong and the skills of Ghost Gate Poison Doctor, it is easy to hide a few people. Why did Ye Wudi expose himself in front of others?

You have to know that once the poison doctor in the Taiwei Mansion is exposed, Taiwei Rong will be suspected of regicide. No matter how powerful he is, if he touches the bottom line of the emperor, the emperor will never forgive him.

Jian Yue was puzzled, so she immediately took a car to Zhou's house to ask her adoptive father to answer her questions.

Unfortunately, Yun Zhonghe was not at home. Jian Yue had no choice but to chat with the old lady for a while, and waited for an hour before Yun Zhonghe came back.

"I just came back from the East Palace, Yue girl. The situation is tense recently. You should prepare some life-saving items."

What?

Jian Yue was a little confused.

Why did the situation suddenly become tense?

"The Second Prince may be desperate. There are signs of troop movements in the camp outside the city."

Jian Yue's heart trembled: "The Second Prince is going to start a coup?"

Yun Zhonghe nodded: "Now the Second Prince and his party are just waiting for an opportunity."

"Isn't the Second Prince imprisoned in the Imperial Clan House? Could he fly out?" Jian Yue felt stupid after asking this question. Although the Second Prince couldn't fly out, if there was an insider, he might have been secretly released.

But the emperor is in his prime and in good health, so it would be too risky for the second prince to take such a risk.

Jian Yue expressed her doubts. Yun Zhonghe frowned and said, "What if there is a possibility that the emperor is stuck with something and has no time to take care of it?"

What kind of thing could trip up a king and make him unable to cope with it?

Jian Yue was full of questions.

Moreover, why did Ye Wudi throw himself into the trap? What benefit would this bring to General Rong?

Jian Yue was suddenly startled.

She thought of a terrible possibility: "Plague!"

Yun Zhonghe was startled: "What did you say?"

Jian Yue's face turned pale, and her hands and feet were cold: "What if Ye Wudi deliberately let himself be captured by the Imperial Guards in order to create a plague?"

Yun Zhonghe's eyes suddenly widened: "Ye Wudi was arrested and taken to the government office. If he carries the virus, the first people to be infected will be the people in the government office."

Jian Yue's doubts were suddenly cleared up, as if the fog had been cleared away: "If all the officials in the court are infected with the plague, the order in the entire Shangjing City will be in chaos. By then..."

Yun Zhonghe's expression suddenly became serious. He stood up suddenly and said, "No! I want to see the prince immediately."

"Foster father," Jian Yue called him, "Find out which government office Ye Wudi is imprisoned in. Anyone who has come into contact with him is forbidden to move around freely. I will go back immediately and go find the fifth prince with Master, and ask him to take us to the government office to have a look."

"Okay, this matter should not be made public. It would be best if it is just a false alarm." Yun Zhonghe turned around and left in a hurry.

Jian Yue also immediately said goodbye to the Zhou family, returned to the Princess's Mansion, and went to see her master.

Doctor Mao stroked his beard and thought for a moment: "Let Fu Wu quickly inform the Fifth Prince to take control of some herbs that can exorcise evil spirits and detoxify."

Jian Yue was shocked and suddenly realized.

Yes! If a plague really breaks out, medicinal materials are the key.

"Master, let's go! It would be great if we could meet Ye Wudi."

An hour later, Ji Yunzhong brought Jian Yue and Doctor Mao into the prison where Ye Wudi was imprisoned.

Ye Wudi was imprisoned in the innermost cell. Because he was the poison doctor of the Ghost Gate, the jailers did not dare to get too close to him.

Ji Yunzhong and the other two did not get too close, and were about five or six meters apart.

Ye Wudi raised his eyebrows when he saw Jian Yue. Jian Yue saw provocation in his expression.

Ha ha!

Jian Yue gave Ji Yunzhong a wink.

Ji Yunzhong asked the people who followed him to step back a distance. He looked back and nodded to Jian Yue when he saw that the jailer could no longer see him.

Jian Yue walked to the door of the cell and waved to Ye Wudi: "Come here."

Ye Wudi was stunned and did not move.

In the past, he always thought that Doctor Mao had a hidden and brilliant poison technique. But now he no longer thought so. Facts have proved that the one who hid the deepest and most evil one was Princess Mingyue.

Seeing that he didn't move, Jian Yue swiftly took out a bamboo tube from her sleeve and blew it inside through the gap in the iron fence.

puff!

A bullet was ejected from a bamboo tube...
