The emperor's voice had become trembling, and he suddenly thought of Concubine Chang's words: Shui Luolan never let others see Yu'er, could it be that Shui Luolan harmed Yu'er?
Thinking of this, he raised his voice and shouted:
"Tell me quickly, where is Yu'er? If you don't tell the truth today, you will all be executed."
Hearing this, the people in Prince Yu's Mansion were panicked. A Gang swallowed nervously. He knew that this matter could no longer be concealed. He thought for a while and replied in a low voice:
"Reply to the emperor, Prince Yu, he... he went... to Ning Gu Pagoda."
Hearing this, the emperor's eyebrows were filled with doubts. He frowned and came to A Gang, suddenly leaned over and lifted up his collar, and asked sternly,
"Tell me again, where has Prince Yu gone?"
Agang was extremely frightened to be in such close contact with the emperor. There was murderous intent in the emperor's eyes, a murderous intent that no one dared to look down upon. He hurriedly replied:
"Prince Yu has gone to Ninggu Pagoda for more than a month."
The emperor looked at him with disbelief and roared again,
"That's nonsense. Yu'er has been paralyzed in bed. How did she get to Ninggu Pagoda? If you don't tell the truth, you will all die."
At this time, Xiaozhi hurriedly ran to the emperor, knelt down directly, and replied solemnly:
"Your Majesty, Steward Agang is right. Master did go to Ning Guta. His leg injury has been cured by his sister...oh, Princess Yu. He was worried about Ning Guta's brothers, so... So a month ago, I went to Ninggu Pagoda at night."
Hearing this, the emperor slowly loosened his grip on A Gang's collar and looked at Xiao Zhi angrily, unable to tell whether he was happy or worried.
Fortunately, the child said that Yu'er's leg injury was healed and she could move freely like a normal person.
Worryingly, he was not sure whether what these people said was true or not. Ninggu Pagoda was far away from here, and he didn't know if something would happen to Yu'er.
A few days ago, he already knew about the unrest over Ning Guta. Now it seems that Yu'er must have arrived there. He also ordered the execution of the person who caused the unrest. At that time, he never thought that it would be Yu'er. Then he would Won't you escape unscathed? This made the emperor worried.
He suddenly shouted sharply at Yu Shiming behind him:
"Master Yu, please send someone quickly, eight hundred miles away, to deliver my edict of pardon to Ninggu Pagoda. We must ensure Yu'er's safety."
Yu Shiming raised his brows tightly and did not dare to neglect. He clasped his fists and accepted the order, "I accept the order. I will go now."
After saying that, he trotted away.
All the officials present only learned that Leng Yu had been pardoned when they heard this imperial edict. Naturally, among them were Wu Yuanzhang's cronies.
The emperor ordered someone to open Leng Yu's room. He asked everyone to wait outside the door. He stepped into the threshold alone. Yu'er was not there, and he wanted to see the place where he lived.
Standing at the door, looking at the neat room, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief, raised his feet, and walked inside.
The place looked clean and tidy, and the wheelchair beside the bed caught his attention. He stepped forward and stroked it. There was Yu'er's breath on it. Thinking of Yu'er's appearance when she was sitting on it, he felt sad.
The emperor stayed in Leng Yu's room for a while and then returned to the palace. In order to prevent people from Prince Yu's palace from deceiving him, he ordered that no one in Prince Yu's palace was allowed to leave before Prince Yu came back.
A Gang and others had also learned that Luo Lan was sent out of the capital, but they were helpless because they were imprisoned by the emperor. The previously bustling Yuwang Palace suddenly became deserted, and Xiao Zhi and Dazhi also began to feel downcast...
The emperor learned from these servants that Shui Luolan not only prepared a wheelchair for Yu'er, but also prepared crutches and a toilet bucket for him...
Shui Luolan worked really hard for Yu'er. On the way back to the palace, the emperor kept thinking, why did she do this? Is it to clarify Yu'er's identity? And then take the opportunity to eradicate the prince? Help Yu'er ascend to the throne of the emperor, and in the future she will become the empress and mother-in-law of the world? Or is she a spy sent by the enemy to use Yu'er to seize the country of Daning?
Thinking carefully, the emperor has always been suspicious since ancient times. These speculations made his back shiver. Since she has these thoughts, will she go to Yu'er? If I had known this, it would be better to send her to the Criminal Punishment Department, or kill her directly, otherwise she would become a disaster sooner or later.
After returning to the palace, he asked Liu Xi to send Liu Wei, the bodyguard with a sword, to come to see him.
Although Liu Wei is not very young, he has great martial arts skills and can carry a knife while walking in the palace. He is naturally not an ordinary person. The most important thing is that he is now in the second rank of the official position, which is higher than some ministers in the court. .
He has a strong figure and handsome face. He is a rare talent. The emperor appreciates him very much and would not use him easily.
He came to the emperor wearing a blue palace guard uniform, cupped his fists and saluted:
"The emperor has urgently summoned the ministers to come, but what's the important matter?"
When the emperor saw him, his face tightened, and he signaled Liu Xiping to withdraw everyone, and then said to Liu Wei:
"I have something important for you to do now, but you must keep it secret and make it foolproof. Can you do it?"
His experience in many battles and his steady work were the reasons why the emperor chose him to carry out this task.
Liu Wei replied hurriedly and sternly, cupping his fists:
"I will do my best to do whatever the emperor has asked me to do. Please give me your instructions."
The emperor nodded slightly with satisfaction, the look of solemnity on his eyebrows became a little more solemn, and he slowly uttered a few words in his mouth,
"I asked you to kill someone..."
Killing is not a big deal to Liu Wei, he can definitely do it.
So he cupped his fists and responded:
"Please tell me, Your Majesty, who should be killed?"
The emperor frowned and paced back and forth in the royal study with his hands behind his back. He suddenly stopped and said word by word:
"The person I asked you to kill is Princess Yu Shui Luolan. If I guessed correctly, the three of them must have gone north. You can look for it along the way. When you find it..."
Having said this, the emperor stood with one hand on his neck and made a killing gesture.
Liu Wei was stunned at first. He had heard about Princess Yu for a long time. He heard that she tried to seduce the prince in order to gain power, but unexpectedly learned that Prince Yu was framed by the prince.
Such a woman deserves to be killed.
Thinking of this, he frowned and gritted his teeth and replied:
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best to kill that woman as soon as possible and return to the palace to die."
The emperor nodded slightly and said with half-squinted eyes:
"This matter must not be known to others. You have never seen Shui Luolan's true appearance, but her features are more obvious because she is accompanied by two girls who are good at martial arts. She is more delicate and speaks in a relaxed manner. Slow but every word is like a pearl..."
Thinking of Shui Luolan, the emperor's eyebrows became a little unbearable, but for Yu'er and for the sake of Daning, he had to do this.
