Seeing her like this, Ouyang glanced at Yang Yuxuan. The latter nodded and immediately drew his sword and slashed. A flash of sword light flashed, and the carriage was cut in half.
Everyone was stunned, and Nie Ziyi started crying: "Yang Yuxuan, what do you think is wrong with you? Are you trying to trick me on purpose? How do you want me to explain now?"
Ouyang said: "Okay, Miss Nie, I asked Lao Yang to chop it down. You see, the matter has reached this point. We can only continue to investigate. I will bear all the consequences!"
At this time, a voice came over: "What's going on? It's so lively, let me come and take a look." Everyone turned around and saw the emperor coming here with a group of people. The prince looked at the wreckage of the carriage and looked at it. The bitter Zhu Yipin pointed at him helplessly.
Yes, I have to take the blame! Zhu Yipin's face became even more bitter.
The five people hurriedly saluted, "Official ministers, ministers, and ordinary people are here to see the emperor. The emperor's holy body is in peace."
The emperor waved his hand, passed Ouyang, looked at Zhu Yipin, and asked: "Zhu Yipin, what are you doing in my palace?"
Zhu Yipin quickly saluted and said: "Back to the emperor, the common people found something that threatened the emperor, so they came to check."
The emperor asked: "What is it that threatens me? Have you ever found it?"
Zhu Yipin said awkwardly: "This, ordinary people are still looking for it."
The emperor smiled and said: "Really?" Then his face darkened and he shouted: "What are you checking? Check whether the quality of my carriage is good? Come, put these four people in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and deal with them after the Buddha ceremony is over. !”
The prince beside him reminded him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is also King Xiaoyao. How should we deal with him?"
The emperor glanced at Ouyang and said speechlessly: "What a nonsense! Why don't you go to the prison to stay for a few days?"
"As for you." Looking at Nie Ziyi who was submissive on the side, he snorted: "There are still important things for you to do now. Once the sacrifice to the Buddha is over, you will be dismissed on the spot! Go to the Meridian Gate and work as a guard."
"I obey the order." Then he sat down on the ground with a gloomy face and muttered: "It's over, it's over, it's completely over now."
Prison Department of Punishment.
The old man Liu led everyone to a clean and tidy cell and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, take a look, how does this one look like?"
Ouyang smiled and said, "Hey, Old Liu Tou, how come there are such clean cells in this prison?"
Old Liu smiled and said: "You probably also know that the two young masters from the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Husbandry are regular visitors here!"
Ouyang waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go in by ourselves. When we come out, I will treat you to a drink."
Old Liu said happily: "Oh, Your Majesty is so polite. If you need anything, just call the kids at any time." After that, he left.
Zhu Yipin looked at the layout of the cell and sighed: "It's good if it matters. Being in jail is like enjoying it."
Hearing this, Liu Ruoxin rolled her eyes and said, "How about you just enjoy it here for the rest of your life!"
Entering the cell, Ouyang took out the tea set and greeted everyone: "Come on, drink some tea and take a rest." After that, he grabbed a handful of peanuts and put them on the table.
Zhu Yipin glared and said, "Wow, you actually carry the tea set and peanuts with you?" Then he said, "Hey, are you really just here to wait until the Buddha ceremony is over?"
Liu Ruoxin held the teacup and said, "What else?"
"Find a way to get out!" Zhu Yipin's eyes lit up and he said, "How about we just go out!"
Ouyang Liu Ruoxin and Yang Yuxuan looked at him like an idiot. Ouyang said speechlessly: "Lao Zhu, escaping from prison is a serious crime and your head will be beheaded."
When Zhu Yipin heard that he was going to behead, he shrank his head and said with a smile: "Oh, it's just talk, don't take it seriously!"
Yang Yuxuan put the tea cup heavily on the table and said loudly: "Now the emperor is in danger, but we are still drinking tea here!"
Ouyang sipped the tea and said: "Be gentle, this is the best Jun porcelain. Besides, what can we do? The emperor doesn't believe us at all now. What we say is in vain. Just wait... "
Yang Yuxuan said helplessly: "Then we can't just wait, right?"
Ouyang sniffed the tea in the cup and said quietly: "There is no other way, I can only wait."
In the Penal Department Prison, the four of them were fighting boringly about the landlord. After a while, Yang Yuxuan threw away the cards in the prison and said, "No, we still have to find a way out."
Liu Ruoxin, with quick eyes and quick hands, changed the cards in front of Zhang Zhu Yipin, glanced at Yang Yuxuan and said, "What else should I do? Do you really want to escape from prison? I guess you have become a hedgehog before you even get out of the prison."
Zhu Yipin was addicted to Landlords. He looked at the cards in his hand carefully and urged Ouyang to play.
Ouyang said calmly: "Lao Zhu, put down the kid in your hand. That's what Lao Yang did. You actually show off in front of me?"
Zhu Yipin snorted: "How is it possible? You have seen it wrong!"
Liu Ruoxin pouted and said, "I saw it too!"
Zhu Yipin said unconvinced: "Then why didn't you remind me?"
Liu Ruoxin said: "Catch the traitor, catch the couple, and take advantage of others."
"Hey, it's quite lively." At this time, a voice came over.
Everyone looked back. Zhu Yipin was so frightened that the cards in his hand fell all over the floor. He quickly saluted and said, "Common people see the emperor."
Ouyang and others also saluted and said, "I see you, Your Majesty."
I saw the emperor wearing casual clothes, standing outside the cell with the prince and his father-in-law. He looked at the cards and tea and snacks on the table, and hummed: "You are doing well." Then he frowned, picked up the teacup and smelled it, and said angrily Said: "You little guy! You actually took away the century-old tree that I treasured, so I asked you why there was so much missing!"
Ouyang quickly admitted his mistake and said, "Oh, Your Majesty, I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken it secretly."
"Um???"
Ouyang continued: "When we get out, I will give you some of the Qinchuan Snow Tea that I have collected at home."
When the emperor heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "Really?" Then he regained his composure and said, "Okay, I'll let you go this time, open the door!"
Zhu Yipin said: "Your Majesty, ordinary people don't have the key."
Ouyang stepped forward and opened the cell door with the key, and invited the emperor in.
The emperor put his hands behind his back and walked in with the prince Shi Ran, and the prince who followed behind made a reassuring gesture to them.
The emperor was sitting on the stool. Ouyang stepped forward and poured a cup of tea. He took a sip of the tea and said, "Tell me, what happened to the carriage?"
Zhu Yipin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is what happened." Then he explained the whole process vividly.
Ouyang looked at Zhu Yipin and thought it would be a pity for this guy to be a doctor. He should be a novelist instead!
The emperor frowned and said: "According to what you said, someone really wants to assassinate me?" It is really shocking to think that four people who seem to have no connection to outsiders can actually connect together to form an assassination plan.
Ouyang said: "Although we haven't found explosives on the carriage yet, we can't guarantee that it will appear in other places."
The emperor asked: "Do you have any plans for the Buddha Ceremony tomorrow?"
