Chapter 595: Relieve Your Anger? You Must Call Me Next Time
When Yao Qingnian returned from the fun, Chen Shuhua had already returned. The servants said she was fine, so she went straight back to her own yard. After a while, Lu Huaijin walked in and said, "Today, someone in the prison sent a message saying that someone attacked Old Duke Chen and his men."
"What's the situation?" Yao Qingnian frowned.
"They are Prince Hong's men. I have already sent more people to protect them."
"We must rescue them as soon as possible, otherwise we will be caught off guard. Who knows if they will do something behind our backs?" Yao Qingnian said worriedly. He guessed that when he rescued Nianran, he told him about his attempt to frame the Duke's Mansion, which annoyed him and made him want to strike first.
"Prince Jing sent someone to look for Duke Chen, but it seems he was turned away. He doesn't want to get involved in the disputes in the court, and he doesn't want to see the princes turn against each other."
"Is it because Grandfather didn't know that the new emperor was plotting to murder the previous emperor?"
"Haven't told him yet."
"We'll know sooner or later. Leave this to me. How are your preparations going?"
Yao Qingnian planned to find an opportunity to talk to Duke Chen, but now that Prince Hong was eyeing him covetously, it was more important to rescue the people first.
"We encountered many problems, but they are all being resolved." Lu Huaijin said calmly.
Although Prince Jing is the successor trained by Emperor Cang Ling, his ability is beyond doubt. However, because of Emperor Cang Ling's attitude towards Prince Jing in front of outsiders over the years, people mistakenly believe that he is not favored at all. Therefore, if it is said that the edict in his hand is real, I am afraid not many people will believe it. Even if they do believe it, many people will stand on the side of the new emperor. The new emperor's death was sudden and unexpected, and there was no time to cultivate his ability in this area. The prince is different. The prince had this plan a long time ago, otherwise he would not dare to kill the king and seize the throne. His power is still far behind that of the new emperor.
The next day, Yao Qingnian rushed to the cell to visit Old Duke Chen and his wife, but was told that they had been taken away by the new emperor, and her younger brothers in the cell were also arrested. The new emperor learned that they helped to look after Old Duke Chen, and became furious. He replaced all the people in the cell, including those from Zi Ye Pavilion. In other words, she could not enter the cell at all now, and even if she entered, no one was inside.
Those jailers were captured because of her. No, she had to go and rescue them.
When she left the cell, she ran into Zheng Cheng, whom she hadn't seen for a few days. His face was filled with fatigue, and he looked like a completely different person. He hung his head as if thinking about something, and didn't pay any attention to the passers-by.
"Uncle Zheng Cheng." Yao Qingnian stepped forward and shouted.
"Are you... Miss Qingnian?" Zheng Cheng came back to his senses when he heard the familiar voice, raised his head, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes. Although Yao Qingnian had changed her appearance, he still recognized Yao Qingnian.
"it's me."
"Let's go and talk somewhere else." He looked around and then took her to a suitable place to talk.
"Uncle Zheng Cheng, how did you become like this?"
"I'm fine, but how are you and your mother? After the incident at the Duke's Mansion, I was worried about you. I looked for you for many days but couldn't find you. I was so anxious that I couldn't rest for a single day."
After the incident in the Duke's Mansion, Zheng Cheng was also implicated. After all, he was the godson of Duke Chen. His position as general was taken away, but fortunately, he saved his life because of the Cao family. He didn't care about the official position. He was worried about Duke Chen and Chen Shuhua and others. These days, he was inquiring about their news while trying to find a way to rescue Duke Chen.
But the Cao family asked him to calm down and not to act rashly at this time. If he was alone, it would be fine, he could just risk his life to rescue the people. But he still has the Cao family behind him, he can't implicate them because of himself, so these two days, he has been considering whether to let Cao Fangyi divorce him. Fangyi is still young, and it won't be a problem for her to find another one after she leaves him.
"My mother and the others are fine, they are all safe! I'm sorry to have worried you, but where did the new emperor take my grandfather and the others? I went to the prison just now, but I didn't see them."
"I know about this. They were taken to the Dali Temple. The new emperor and Prince Hong want to convict Dad tomorrow."
"They have a good plan. They want to convict my grandfather in this way and make them happy." Yao Qingnian snorted.
"Girl, leave this matter to me. Go back, take your mother and the others away, leave the capital, and never come back. Tomorrow, your grandfather and the others might be in great danger. But don't worry, your uncle will definitely find a way to rescue them." Zheng Cheng looked determined.
"No, Uncle Zheng Cheng, you can't be impulsive. There will be a way. I will go with you tomorrow. I will go back first and settle my mother and Nianran."
"Okay, go ahead and be safe."
"I know. You have to cheer up. You look like an old man now. You are so ugly."
Yao Qingnian gave a playful smile.
"Okay, okay, I get it. You're still teasing your uncle at this time."
After the two of them had agreed, Yao Qingnian returned to the villa. She had to make this trip tomorrow no matter what, but she didn't know what tricks the new emperor and Prince Hong would play. So Yao Qingnian decided to talk to Lu Huaijin and send them out of the capital today.
"Mom, you guys go out of town first, and come back when things are settled."
"No, I won't leave. Your grandfather and the others are still in the capital. Besides, how can I let you stay? You and Nianran go first, and leave the other things to mother." Chen Shuhua had also received the news and planned to fight to the death with them.
"Mom, you have to go. Believe me, I will bring the person back safely. I know that you went to find Shen Wenting."
"I just wanted to teach him a lesson. Did I cause you any trouble?" Chen Shuhua thought to herself, could her daughter be angry? She just wanted to vent her anger on Shen Wenting at the time, and didn't think too much about it.
"You did a great job, but don't act rashly next time. You must call me next time if you want to do something so satisfying! I also want to teach him a lesson."
"Puchi" Chen Shuhua was amused by her: "Okay, next time something like this happens, I will definitely call you."
"That's right, but this matter is of great importance, not just a small fight. If you and Nian Ran stay, I'm worried that you might be in danger. So, if you leave the capital, I won't have any worries."
"But……"
"Don't worry, Sister Yuzhu, help mother pack her things now. Huaijin has prepared the carriage. I'll go to Nianran's place and tell her."
After Yao Qingnian finished speaking, he left and went to Nianran's yard.
Chen Shuhua also understood that she could not do anything if she stayed, so under Lu Huaijin's arrangement, they left the capital.
