"It's impossible for her to admit it." Lu Jiuyuan was not surprised.

If she didn't admit it, there was still a chance to turn around. If she admitted that the emperor's coma was caused by her hands and feet, she would have no choice but to die.

After all, murdering the emperor is a capital crime.

How could Rongniang admit it?
Gu Changqing also thought of this, frowned and said, "But she's just being stubborn. What I didn't expect was that all the servants in Xiyue Palace were also very stubborn. They just refused to tell the truth, and were even dragged away to guard against punishment." The Secretary has been tortured, but he still refuses to confide a word."

"Those people down there really don't know anything," Lu Jiuyuan said.

"But if the emperor doesn't wake up for a day, everyone is in a hurry." Gu Changqing said helplessly.

After a long silence, Lu Jiuwei suddenly said: "There is a person who may be able to save the emperor."

Gu Changqing was taken aback, but soon thought of something, and lost his voice: "Your master? But his whereabouts are uncertain, don't you even know his whereabouts?"

"Yes, so before finding my master, I have to find a way to release the prince and preside over state affairs." Lu Jiuyuan pondered.

"What do you want to do?" Gu Changqing asked hurriedly.

Lu Jiuyuan raised his eyes and looked at him, "At that time, you and the royal clan will be needed to cooperate."

After all, Gu Changqing has known him for many years, and there is still a tacit understanding. Hearing this, he knew his plan, and immediately said: "I will try to persuade the royal family."

"Yes." Lu Jiuyuan nodded.

At this moment, Wu Ze hurried in, "Master, Bi Xiao has found it."

"Where is it?" Lu Jiuyuan asked in a deep voice.

"The subordinates have asked Zhao Er and the others to send Bi Xiao back to the East Palace first." Wu Ze replied.

"It's really great. Now that the crown prince is released, there are more chances of winning." Gu Changqing was very happy.

Lu Jiuyuan and Gu Changqing went to the East Palace in person, intending to interrogate Bi Xiao.

But when the two arrived, Bichun and Bixiao scuffled into a ball.

"You bitch, the crown prince treats you well, how dare you join others to frame him, I'll beat you to death!"

"You lunatic, get out of here!"

Watching the fight between the two, Zhao Er and the others didn't intend to step forward to persuade the fight, and they watched it with relish.

It wasn't until he saw Lu Jiuyuan coming that he pretended to step forward and tear the two apart.

The two wrestled fiercely, their bodies were covered with paint, and their hair was also messed up. Both of them had disheveled hair.

But Bichun is better. After all, these few days, she ate, drank, slept well in the East Palace, and she was very energetic. On the other hand, Bixiao was hiding in Tibet, and she was worried. She was very haggard and tired, so Bichun She stopped, and she was still lying on the ground unable to get up.

Zhao Er carried her to a chair and sat on it, and gave her some water before she recovered.

Lu Jiuyuan walked into the room and asked directly, "The puppet, who gave it to you?"

Bi Xiao still dares to hide it now, and immediately said: "Although the thing was given to me by Wang Guanshi, I know that Wang Guanshi colluded with a lady named Gui who is next to the imperial concubine.

It is precisely because I know that after they killed Guan Wang, they wanted to kill me. Fortunately, I ran fast, otherwise I would have died a long time ago..."

Speaking of the latter, Bi Xiao cried out.

During this period of hiding and fear, she collapsed.

"If you dare to harm the prince, you deserve to die!" Bi Chun scolded.

"I don't want to either..." Bi Xiao was sobbing, "Who told the prince not to see me all the time, I was pushed by Wang Guanshi, so I did this stupid thing..."

"Do you think you are some kind of fairy, the crown prince insists on seeing you?" Bi Chun was incredulous.

Bi Xiao collapsed on the table and cried loudly.

"Continue to watch her." After getting the news he wanted, Lu Jiuyuan gave an order, and then retreated with Gu Changqing, and then ordered Wu Ze to arrest Nanny Gui from Xiyue Palace.

……

Tao Yao didn't care much about the affairs in the palace, because Tao Qian and Nie Mulan had already arrived in Beijing, and the day of their wedding was coming.

During this period of time, the current situation was not right, so they had to keep things simple and only invited guests with close ties to Tao Mansion to celebrate their marriage.

Everything went well, but when the guests dispersed, a strange man broke in suddenly, threatening to see Tao Qian.

At that time, Tao Qian had already entered the new house.

When Tao Yao heard the news, she hurried to the front yard and stopped the man, "Who are you? If you need anything, just tell me."

After the man looked at her, he took out a letter and said in a low voice: "Your biological mother is in trouble, please hurry to rescue her. This is a letter written by your biological mother. Please give it to your father."

After hearing this, Tao Yao's heart skipped a beat, and she already understood the origin of this person. It turned out that this person belonged to Rongniang.

She took the letter and agreed verbally, "Well, I will give the letter to my father, don't worry."

Hearing this, the man bowed his hands and left.

As soon as the person left, Tao Yao didn't even read the letter, so she tore up the letter paper.

What else can I write on the letter?
It was nothing more than some past events with her father, in order to arouse his father's old feelings for her, so that his father could save her.

But her father has married Aunt Mulan now, the past is really over, she will never let Rongniang destroy his father and Aunt Mulan's marriage.

Let Rong Niang continue to stay in the prison.

What Tao Yao didn't know was that a major event happened in the court today.

Lu Jiuyuan convened the ministers of the court and the royal family, and in front of them, he strongly proved that the prince's witchcraft incident last time was planted and framed by others, and the prince should be released.

The emperor hadn't shown up for a long time, and all the ministers vaguely guessed something. Although they still had doubts about the matter, no one objected.

Soon, Qi Yan came out of the dungeon and acted as an agent of state affairs.

It's just that the emperor and Wanrun still couldn't wake up.

……

In the evening, when Tao Yao returned to the mansion, she heard that Lu Jiuyuan had returned and was taking a bath. After she entered the room, she sat down on a chair and planned to rest for a while.

Busy with her father's marriage these few days, she was a little tired from running around.

But after sitting for a long time, she didn't see Lu Jiuyuan coming out of the clean room, so she couldn't help feeling puzzled.

Could it be that he fell asleep in the bathtub?

Thinking of Lu Jiuyuan's hard work during this period, Tao Yao really felt that it was possible.

Immediately, she hurried to the clean room.

The door was pushed open, and the man was still sitting in the tub with his eyes closed, apparently asleep.

Seeing this, Tao Yao couldn't laugh or cry.

It seemed that he was so exhausted that he could fall asleep even after taking a bath.

She approached, reached out to touch the water in the bathtub, and found that it was already cold, she was startled, quickly took a blanket, wrapped it around Lu Jiuyuan, and gently pushed his shoulder, "Lu Jiuyuan , wake up, don't sleep here, you're going to catch a cold in a while."

Lu Jiuyuan finally woke up. Seeing that it was her, he smiled, his voice was hoarse as if he had just woken up, "You're back?"

Tao Yao said angrily, "If I don't come back, are you going to sleep here until dawn?"

Lu Jiuyuan paused, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, "I accidentally fell asleep." After that, he supported the edge of the bucket and stood up.

He got up without warning, which made Tao Yao stunned for a moment, and when she realized it, she silently turned her back.
