After a while, Mrs. Fu also came back, and Fu Yao asked Biyu not to mention this matter.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Fu Yao just got out of the carriage when he saw someone riding a horse with a large cage in his hand. Inside the cage was a snow-white ball. Stopping in front of the mansion gate, the guards immediately got off their horses, and carefully carried the cage to Fu Yao and Mrs. Fu.

"This subordinate pays homage to the Empress and Mrs. Fu."

Mrs. Fu saw that this was the guard next to Li Mi, and said with a smile, "You're welcome."

The guard looked at Fu Yao with a calm expression again: "The emperor ordered that the newly caught fox be sent to the Empress Empress, because it is a wild animal, and there may be some wild animals that are difficult to tame, so the beast trainer will come from the palace. "

Fu Yao followed the guard's words and looked at the fox in the cage.

The fox is not very big, just as big as a one or two-year-old dog. It is snow-white without any variegation, and its fur is bright, but it does not look very energetic. It is lying in the cage and its eyes are wary.

"The emperor also asked me to tell you that if the empress feels comfortable living in the prime minister's mansion, she will always live in the prime minister's mansion. When you come back from the paddock, the emperor will come to pick you up again."

Fu Yao nodded faintly: "I see, let's bring the fox in."

"Yes."

Biyu stepped forward and led the guards to send the fox in.

Fu Yao asked Madam Fu to be sent back again, and she asked the guard beside her, "Where's Dongxue?"

"It's in the firewood room at the back."

"Did you ask anything?"

"No, she hasn't opened her mouth since she was caught, no matter how much she asks, she just doesn't say anything, empress, this matter should be instigated by someone too thick, but these people rarely betray their companions, according to my subordinates , There will be no result if you press the question, it is better to send it to the Ministry of Punishment."

Seeing Fu Yao looking over, the guard said, "The Ministry of Punishment is in charge of prisons. Dongxue intended to murder the empress and his wife, so she should have been sent to prison for punishment, and the Ministry of Punishment has more methods of interrogation."

Fu Yao thought for a while, then nodded: "Send it over."

"Yes."

In the compartment of the teahouse, Wuyue saw the guards leaving on horseback outside the window, putting down the teacup heavily in their hands, and the people who came in from the door stood silently in the dark corner.

"If you can't do this well, what's the use of you?"

Fu Yao's mother and daughter, they are just two helpless women, yet let them come back safely?
"I didn't expect that they were aware of Dongxue's problem from the very beginning, and they weren't in the carriage in front of them at all. Later, they realized that they were in the Great Buddha Temple, and it was too late when they wanted to do something. They couldn't do it twice. They were stopped by an old monk, which allowed them to return to the capital safely."

"Old monk?"

Moonless looked back in surprise.

The man standing in the darkness nodded and said: "I heard that he is a famous monk from the Great Buddha Temple. He often travels outside, but he came back suddenly for some reason today. After seeing Fu Yao, he left again. Fu Yao and the others returned to Beijing. At that time, apart from the guards around him, this old monk also secretly helped me, so I didn't succeed."

"Could it be someone arranged by Li Wei?
Wuyue murmured, but she didn't have time to think about it. This time, if she couldn't do it this time, if she was on guard, she probably wouldn't have a chance.

After thinking for a while, Wuyue said: "That Dongxue is useless anymore, find a way to solve it, and then what should you do, don't show up, I will contact you again if the Queen Mother has any orders."

"Miss Wuyue, Dongxue doesn't know a lot of inside information, and now she has been sent to the Ministry of Punishment, or should she be spared?"

"Hmph." Wuyue sneered: "I'll save her life, will the Ministry of Justice keep her life? Even if she doesn't know much, she should be cautious at this time, and she can't be careless at all."

"……Yes."

After the man in black left, Wuyue also left the teahouse.

……

"Your Majesty, a servant girl named Dongxue in the Prime Minister's Mansion has been captured and sent to the Ministry of Punishment for trying to murder the Queen and Madam Fu."

The guard who sent the fox back to the paddock entered the sidewalk of the main tent.

Hearing this sentence, Li Wei's expression changed immediately: "How is the situation?"

"The guards next to the Empress said that the Empress first noticed something wrong with Dongxue, so she was not injured."

Hearing this, Li Wei calmed down, but suddenly frowned again: "The empress herself...didn't mention this matter?"

The guard froze for a moment, then shook his head sincerely: "No."

"You send the fox back, what's the Queen's reaction?" Li Mi asked again.

The guard thought for a while: "The empress is very calm, there is no other order for the subordinates to send the fox in."

"..."

Li Wei fell silent, and waved his hands irritably. After the guards went out, there was a voice outside soon, and Li Wei said with a sullen face, "Who is making the noise?"

"My Majesty, it's Miss Lu."

"Let her go back!"

Li Shi replied impatiently.

Outside the tent, when Lu Xiyao heard these words, she lowered her head aggrievedly, and the guard stood in front of her and said: "Miss Lu, the emperor ordered that you don't make things difficult for us, please go back."

Lu Xiyao looked inside unwillingly.

She just saw that the guard who brought the fox to Fu Yao came back, but she didn't know what he said. Hearing the emperor's tone, she didn't seem very happy. Could it be that Wuyue succeeded?

She quietly pinched her palms so as not to let her emotions leak out, nodded to the guards and turned to leave.

Back at her own residence, Lu Xiyao walked back and forth in the tent.

He couldn't hear any news, and Wu Yue didn't come back, so he didn't know what was going on with Fu Yao.

"What is Miss Lu thinking?"

When Lu Xiyao was in a hurry, Wuyue's voice suddenly came from her ear, Lu Xiyao suddenly looked up, saw Wuyue who came in at some point, and looked outside again.

"How did you get into the paddock?
"I want to come in, so there is a way." Wuyue didn't want to explain, but walked to the side and sat down and looked at Lu Xiyao: "What were you thinking just now?"

"Is Fu Yao dead?" Lu Xiyao followed closely to ask.

Wuyue shook her head: "No, not only did she not die, but she was not injured at all, and she even received the fox that Li Wei specially sent back to please her."

"How could it be! I just heard that the emperor was in a bad mood just now. How could she not die? Didn't you say you could do this? Why didn't she die!"

"I just said that I can give it a try, but I have never promised you whether I will die or not, besides..." Wuyue said lightly: "Fu Yao has guards specially arranged by Li Wei, if it is so easy, he will die. Now, you still put so much thought into it?"

"What now?"

Lu Xiyao stomped her feet irritably, sat down beside her, and stared at Wuyue full of resentment.
