125. Chapter 125 The Queen's Bitter Trick
Cao Tianyue thought Ye Wange was going to kill Wang Haodong to silence him, so he looked at Ye Wange in horror.
When Ye Wange heard that Cao Tianyue misunderstood that she wanted to kill someone, she immediately covered her mouth with her hand and whispered a few words in Cao Tianyue's ear.
After hearing this, Cao Tianyue slowly calmed down from his frightened expression, and kept nodding in agreement.
"Then I'll go now." Cao Tianyue said anxiously.
Ye Wange nodded and gave Cao Tianyue a grateful look. Cao Tianyue gave Ye Wange a reassuring look in return and immediately turned around and left.
After Cao Tianyue left, Ye Wange, who had been in a state of nervousness, breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Haodong was arrested, which caught her off guard. Fortunately, things did not develop to an irreversible point.
Ye Wange prayed to Cao Tianyue to get things done. At the same time, he was also thinking in his mind whether someone was behind Wang Haodong's sudden arrest.
Ye Changyu and Shen Liang both went somewhere, and Ye Wange filtered it over and over in his mind, asking what other enemies his father Ye Changyu had besides Shen Liang, his powerful rival.
After thinking for a while, I couldn't think of anyone other than Shen Liang who would conspire to frame Ye Changyu.
After being frightened, all his souls were scared away. Ye Wange sat by the fire with his neck curled up. The fire in the stove was burning brightly, but Ye Wange couldn't feel any warmth at all.
The fire was burning loudly, and Ye Wange sat by the fire and lost his mind, thinking only about Wang Haodong's sudden arrest and whether Nangong Ao also knew about it.
If Nangong Ao already knew the origin of the Dragon Tail Inkstone and had never mentioned it in front of her, then he was going to do it for business and had no mercy at all to punish his father Ye Changyu. Ye Wange thought about Nangong Ao's intentions in his heart. .
Although her intuition told her that Nangong Ao should know about this, she didn't want to believe it and deceived herself into thinking that Nangong Ao didn't know about it.
Cao Tianyue came to the cell. General Cao entered the cell. It was Xiao Cai Yidi's business. He entered the cell smoothly.
When Cao Tianyue entered the cell, he looked around for the place where Wang Haodong was imprisoned. He searched around but couldn't find it. He stood there and stretched out his hand to wave to the jailer in the cell.
When Qian Baishun saw Cao Tianyue waving, he immediately ran over with a flattering look on his face.
"Where is Wang Haodong who was just taken into custody?" Cao Tianyue asked.
Seeing that Cao Tianyue was here to inquire about Wang Haodong, Qian Baishun squinted his little eyes and said, "Master Cao, do you have any friendship with Wang Shangshu?"
Cao Tianyue was not here to interrogate Wang Shangshu, but to inquire about information. Of course Qian Baishun, the veteran in the cell, saw that there was something wrong, so he opened his mouth to ask.
After hearing this, Cao Tianyue reached out and touched two shining gold ingots from his sleeves, and handed them to Qian Baishun, "I rewarded you with these, take them to buy some wine for your brothers!"
Qian Baishun looked at the two sparkling big ingots, his eyes were so red that they were almost bleeding, "Isn't this good?" He said something bad, while his eyes stared at the palm of Cao Tianyue's hand for a moment. The big ingot, the hand can reach out faster than the mouth.
Cao Tianyue watched as the big ingot in his palm went into Qian Baishun's pocket when Qian Baishun opened his mouth. He raised the corner of his mouth and slowly retracted his empty palm.
Qian Baishun accepted Cao Tianyue's two large ingots, gave Cao Tianyue a signaling look, and vaguely pointed his finger in the southernmost direction, signaling Cao Tianyue to go there.
Cao Tianyue glanced at him and confirmed with his eyes. Qian Baishun nodded. Unexpectedly, he already had a separate key in his hand. Qian Baishun handed the key to Cao Tianyue.
Cao Tianyue took the key and strode in that direction.
Walking to the far south, Cao Tianyue saw two doors, one on the left and one on the right. Qian Baishun stood there and motioned to Cao Tianyue to open the cell door on the left.
Cao Tianyue inserted the key into the keyhole, opened the cell door, and put his head in to take a look. It turned out that behind the masonry wall was a very secret cell with its own cave.
Cao Tianyue walked in and saw Wang Haodong sitting on the withered grass in the cell with his hands and feet shackled, his face pale and shocked.
Cao Tianyue locked his eyes tightly on Wang Haodong. Wang Haodong seemed to have noticed a hot light shining on him, and he immediately raised his head alertly.
When he saw it was Cao Tianyue, Wang Haodong was stunned, stood up slowly, and looked at Cao Tianyue with doubts and wariness.
Cao Tianyue walked up to Wang Haodong, without saying anything, and handed a note to Wang Haodong. Wang Haodong hesitated for a moment before taking it. When he took it into his hand, Wang Haodong's face instantly turned pale.
"General Cao!" Wang Haodong shouted with a trembling voice.
Cao Tianyue glanced at Wang Haodong, "Wang Shangshu, my nephew is just entrusted by someone. The person who entrusted me asked me to bring a message to Wang Shangshu. She said that Wang Shangshu is a smart man, and Wang Shangshu should know what to do at this moment.
, as long as she is here, Wang Shangshu will not lose a hair."
"Yes! Right!" Wang Haodong nodded in agreement after listening to Cao Tianyue's words.
After Cao Tianyue finished speaking, he didn't give Wang Haodong a chance to speak. He gave Wang Haodong a self-satisfied look and left without missing a moment.
Wang Haodong stared blankly at the cell door that had just been opened and closed. It took him a long time to come back to his senses, crumpled the paper in his hand, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it with saliva.
Wang Haodong, who had been frightened since the Dongchuang incident, felt like he had received a reassurance. He sat quietly on the withered grass, with no fear on his face, and crossed his legs with two trembling legs like a sieve.
, he doesn’t look like someone in jail at all, but more like a man who comes here to have fun.
There are a few people who can serve as ministers in this court who are not scheming and calculating. Wang Haodong was caught now because he was plotted by a villain.
From the moment he was caught to now, Wang Haodong felt that he was wronged. He was arrested without any warning and without any warning. He didn't even notice the slightest sign of trouble.
After Wang Haodong was arrested, his mind was filled with images of beheadings. Fortunately, because he was temporarily frightened and confused, the interrogation of him has not yet begun since he was arrested.
Just when he was at a loss for what to do, Cao Tianyue came and showed him a clear way.
When Cao Tianyue came out of the cell, he took out another ingot from his sleeve and handed it to Qian Baishun who was following him. Qian Baishun nodded and bowed to take it.
Qian Baishun happily stuffed the gold ingot into his sleeve. Cao Tianyue gave him a cold look. Qian Baishun immediately said flatteringly, "Don't worry, Master Cao. I've never seen Master Cao come here."
Pass."
Cao Tianyue smiled at Qian Baishun and left the cell as fast as the wind. Qian Baishun looked at Cao Tianyue's disappearing back, touched the big golden ingot from his sleeve, put it to his mouth and kissed it again and again.
Hearing the footsteps of strangers, he stuffed the ingot into his sleeve again.
Cao Tianyue came out of the cell and went straight to Ye Wange.
When Xiao Zhizi saw that Cao Tianyue didn't even pass, he stretched out his hand to lift the door curtain and urged Cao Tianyue to hurry in.
Cao Tianyue entered the house and went straight to the inner room. At this time, Ye Wange was in a bad mood and was resting on the phoenix couch for a while.
When Ye Wange saw Cao Tianyue coming in, he sat up from the phoenix couch and called eagerly, "Little General Cao."
Cao Tianyue heard the sound and left, walked to the phoenix couch and replied, "I met Wang Haodong and passed on the Queen's words to him."
"What does he mean?" Ye Wange asked.
"He turned pale with fright when he saw the note. I told him what the Queen had said, and he nodded in response.
Wang Haodong is a sensible person, he knows how to protect himself wisely, and he also knows the priorities, and he will get through it."
"Yeah." Ye Wange nodded.
Ye Wange felt a lot more relieved after hearing what Cao Tianyue brought back. She guessed that Wang Haodong would grit his teeth and get through this.
Ye Wange was lying on the bed. When she heard Nangong Ao's voice coming from outside, she immediately closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Nangong Ao entered the inner room and said to Ping'er who was standing aside, "Is the Queen sleeping?"
"Back to the Emperor, the Queen said she was tired that day and went to bed early." Ping'er is also a smart girl. She saw Ye Wange closing her eyes immediately when she heard Nangong Ao's voice, and she immediately understood Ye Wange.
This is deliberately pretending to be asleep.
Nangong Ao glanced at Ye Wange, who was looking haggard on the bed, and asked, "How is the Queen's taste these days?"
After hearing this, Ping'er sighed, and a mist of tears immediately appeared in his eyes, "The Queen has recently vomited after eating, and she vomited after eating. It's a pity that she didn't even drink the saliva after vomiting."
"Doctor Song, didn't he say he was very healthy?" Nangong Ao listened to Ping'er's words and asked seriously with his eyebrows tightly knitted.
"The Imperial Physician Song said that Long Zi was very healthy, but that the Empress was very weak and needed to be replenished. However, the Empress couldn't even drink water. How could she be replenished?" Ping'er looked at Ye Wange on the bed and wiped away tears in distress.
Nangong Ao's heart twitched when he heard this, not because he felt sorry for Ye Wange, but because he was afraid that something might happen to Long Zi in Ye Wange's body because of his weak bones.
Nangong Ao hurriedly walked up to Ye Wange. Looking at Ye Wange's sallow face, he shouted softly, "Queen! Wake up!"
Nangong Ao screamed softly for a while, but Ye Wange showed no sign of waking up from where he was sleeping.
Nangong Ao was sitting on the phoenix couch, feeling very worried. Suddenly he heard a gentle cry from the phoenix couch. He lowered his eyes and saw that the man who had been sleeping deeply just now was now crying softly with tears on his face.
Seeing Ye Wange crying in her sleep, this frightened Nangong Ao who was sitting there. He immediately reached out and patted Ye Wange's face, "Queen, wake up!"
Ye Wange, who was pretending to be asleep, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Nangong Ao with half-squinted eyes. The sleepy look looked to Nangong Ao as if he had really just woken up.
Ye Wange reached out and held Nangong Ao's hand tightly, holding Nangong Ao's big hand and placing it on his face full of tears, "Your Majesty!"
