220. Chapter 220 The third prince is still alive
Cao Yan's body lay in the ice coffin, perfectly preserved. The first person to pounce on the beautiful body was Cao Tianyue.
Looking at the person whose appearance was still lifeless, Cao Tianyue shed tears of sadness.
"My condolences, General Cao!" Song Qisheng comforted him softly, then gently pulled Cao Tianyue away and began to examine the body.
In Funing Palace, Ye Wange was twirling Supa and worrying about the safety of Cao Tianyue and his party who were going to explore the situation of the imperial mausoleum.
Ye Wange was worried here when Nangong Ao from the Yangxin Palace received news that someone had broken into the imperial mausoleum without permission.
"Order Zhou Qiang to bring someone over immediately." Nangong Ao ordered.
Zhang Fugui almost jogged to inform Zhou Qiang, who rushed to the imperial mausoleum as quickly as possible.
Xiaozhi, who had been searching for news everywhere, heard that the whereabouts of Cao Tianyue and his party had been discovered, and immediately ran back to tell Ye Wange the bad news.
Ye Wange made a prompt decision and asked Xiaozhi to send a signal to Cao Tianyue, asking Cao Tianyue to retreat quickly.
Xiao Zhizi said with a sad face, "They are in the imperial mausoleum. They may not be able to see the signal we send?"
After Ye Wange heard this, he stroked his forehead with a headache, "It just depends on their luck."
Over at the imperial mausoleum, Cao Tianyue and his party, who had just entered the tomb of Third Prince Nangong Ye, were surprised that there was no Nangong Ye's body in the coffin. When they knew that someone else had discovered it, the group hurried out.
A few people walked out of the cave entrance and saw officers and soldiers coming here with torches everywhere.
"It's over! It's over!" Craftsman Zhang San's legs and feet were so frightened that he said it in a loud voice.
Han Yue had not yet reacted to the disappearance of Nangong Ye's body, and was following Cao Tianyue impatiently. Only Song Qisheng said soberly, "Let's go separately! General Cao, you take them first, I'll go
Lure away the pursuers."
"No." Cao Tianyue saw that Song Qisheng was going to sacrifice himself to save them, so he decisively refused.
"I'll lure them away, and you take them away." Cao Tianyue said to Song Qisheng.
Just as the two people were arguing, a black shadow suddenly fell in front of them and said, "Follow me." Then they saw the black shadow running south along the mountain road.
Everyone was still in a daze, but Han Yue was the only one to react, "Third Prince." Han Yue raised her feet and chased after the black shadow.
When they heard Han Yue calling the third prince, Cao Tianyue and Song Qisheng opened their eyes in fear. For a long time, the two of them and the craftsmen also chased the two people in front.
With the Third Prince from Han Yue's mouth leading the way, the group of people safely left the imperial mausoleum via a small road.
But after leaving the imperial mausoleum, the man in black could no longer be found. Han Yue stood in the cold moonlight, looking around in circles. Song Qisheng and Cao Tianyue chased Han Yue and asked, "Where is the man?"
?”
Han Yue said with red eyes, "I don't know, I ran here and disappeared!"
"Third Prince..." Han Yue screamed desperately, Cao Tianyue reached out and covered Han Yue's mouth, "You are crazy, you are desperate!"
Song Qisheng heard the footsteps behind him and said, "Hurry up, the officers and soldiers are catching up soon."
So the group of people hurried to the place where the horses were kept. Han Yue refused to leave and was dragged by Cao Tianyue along the way.
After finding the horses, Cao Tianyue and Han Yue walked together, and Song Qisheng took the craftsman along.
Hearing that someone had broken into the imperial mausoleum, Nangong Ao had no intention of sleeping anymore. He was pacing uneasily in the room with his clothes on. Qinhua looked at Nangong Ao and said, "Your Majesty, please sit down and rest for a while!"
Nangong Ao, who was pacing with his hands behind his back, looked at Qinhua and said, "Go to sleep first! Let me be alone for a while."
Qinhua saw how restless Nangong Ao was. How could she sleep?
Nangong Ao was in a bad mood, Qinhua didn't say anything, and just stood there quietly to accompany Nangong Ao.
Cao Tianyue took Han Yue back to the palace. How could Han Yue want to sleep at this time?
Han Yue wore night clothes and ventured to Funing Palace.
Ye Wange was worried about their safety. He was sitting on the phoenix couch with his chin resting on his hand in a daze. After seeing Han Yue, he said excitedly, "Are you all okay?"
"It's okay." Han Yue replied.
Ye Wange was still immersed in worrying about their safety and did not notice anything wrong with Han Yue.
Han Yue's eyes were red and she said in a hoarse voice, "I saw him!"
Ye Wange was confused by Han Yue's words, "Who did you see?"
Han Yue looked at Ye Wange with red eyes, sobbed and said, "Third Prince."
When Ye Wange heard Han Yue say that she had seen the Third Prince, her first reaction was that Han Yue had seen a ghost, or was possessed by a ghost.
Ye Wange stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Han Yue's eyes, "Are you okay?"
Han Yue reached out and held Ye Wange's hand, "It's okay.
Don't be afraid, I'm very normal.
We did meet the Third Prince..." Han Yue burst into tears when she said this. I don't know if she was crying with joy or for some other reason, but Han Yue couldn't help but shed tears.
"Are you saying that the Third Prince Nangong Ye is not dead?" Ye Wange asked as if what Han Yue said was true.
"Yeah." Han Yue covered her eyes with a Supa to prevent tears from falling.
The news that the Third Prince Nangong Ye was not dead was like a bomb that exploded in Ye Wange's heart.
"How is this possible?" Ye Wange asked in disbelief.
"It was him who saved us tonight." Han Yue replied, telling them again what happened when they were in danger, and how Nangong Ye saved them.
Han Yue's words were so vivid that Ye Wange couldn't help but not believe him. Ye Wange rubbed his aching head and said, "The third prince is still alive, you should be happy!
Why are you crying!"
When Han Yue heard Ye Wange's words, she cried even harder. She covered her mouth with her handkerchief and said, "I am happy, but I am extremely happy and sad."
Han Yue kept crying, and Ye Wange advised, "Now that he is safe and sound, you should be happy.
Haven't you always wanted to see him?"
Han Yue stopped crying, looked at Ye Wange and said, "He definitely doesn't want to see me, otherwise he wouldn't have disappeared without a trace without saying a word to me."
"Both the government and the public know that he is a dead man. It is not convenient for him to reveal his identity now. When the time is right, he will come to see you." Ye Wange comforted Han Yue.
Han Yue didn't know whether she took Ye Wange's words into her heart or figured it out on her own. Anyway, she stopped crying and just shed tears silently.
"Go back quickly! Something happened at the imperial mausoleum, and the palace is not in peace now. If someone finds out that you are not in the palace, then you and the third prince will really be separated from each other!" Ye Wange said.
Han Yue returned to Yongyang Palace under Ye Wange's persuasion.
After Han Yue left, although Ye Wange knew that they had retreated safely, he couldn't sleep anymore because Nangong Ye was still alive.
When he first knew that Nangong Ye was in danger, Ye Wange took the risk to rescue him. He thought that Nangong Ye could escape the disaster. Unexpectedly, Nangong Ye still died at that time, and many people saw Nangong Ye's death with their own eyes. Now it is true that Nangong Ye died.
Saying that the dead person is still alive, what on earth is going on with such a spooky thing?
Ye Wange was puzzled by the fact that Nangong Ye was still alive.
When Ye Wange thought about the fact that Nangong Ye was still alive, she thought that Qian Baishun might have deceived her.
When something happened to Nangong Ye, Xiao Zhi took money to bribe Qian Baishun.
Ye Wange thought about it and thought that the only person who could solve the mystery of Nangong Ye still being alive was not only Nangong Ye himself, but also Qian Baishun who witnessed what happened.
Ye Wange wanted to know the truth of the matter and was eager to see Qian Baishun to find out more about it. He had no intention of sleeping.
After getting off the phoenix couch, Ye Wange paced back and forth in the room.
"Queen, please sleep a little longer!" Ping'er advised as he glanced at the dark sky outside.
"Can't sleep." Ye Wange replied anxiously.
"Go and fetch Xiao Yuanzi." Ye Wange said to Ping'er.
Xiao Yuanzi was not on duty tonight and was sleeping in his room. Ping'er woke Xiao Yuanzi up on Ye Wange's order.
Xiao Yuanzi entered the room with sleepy eyes, looked at Ye Wange and said, "Queen, what's the urgent matter that you want to ask this servant to do?"
"Qian Baishun lied to us." Ye Wange said angrily.
Xiao Yuanzi had just woken up and was even more confused when he heard Ye Wange's confused words.
Ye Wange looked at Xiao Yuanzi's confused and confused look and said, "The third prince is still alive. Qian Baishun lied to us in the first place."
As soon as he heard that the Third Prince was still alive, Xiao Yuanzi lost all sleep and immediately opened his eyes wide, "Did the Queen start to lie to me and us because she said Qian Baishun obeyed the Third Prince?"
"Yeah." Ye Wange responded.
After hearing this, Xiao Yuanzi said angrily, "If this is really the case, Qian Baishun will not be able to stay." Xiao Yuanzi made a beheading gesture.
Ye Wange said to Xiao Yuanzi, "I want to see Qian Baishun."
"Now?" Xiao Yuanzi asked in surprise.
"The sooner the better." Ye Wange replied.
Xiao Yuanzi heard this and responded, "I will do it now."
Ye Wange couldn't wait to see Qian Baishun, so Xiao Yuanzi could only risk going to the cell to find Qian Baishun.
Qian Baishun was not on duty at night and was resting in the house. He was having an erotic dream and dreamed of the charming old woman Feng lying in his arms. Suddenly he felt a cool breeze blowing into his arms.
Xiao Yuanzi took off the quilt from Qian Baishun, looked at Qian Baishun's obscene appearance, and shouted in a deep voice, "Qian Baishun, get up quickly."
Qian Baishun turned over and continued to scream in his sleep. Seeing that Qian Baishun was like a dead pig, Xiao Yuanzi immediately raised his foot and kicked Qian Baishun on the butt.
Qian Baishun screamed twice, opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Yuanzi, sat up in a cold sweat and said, "Father, how did you get in?"
Qian Baishun looked at the half-open door with the bolt down. Qian Baishun looked at Xiao Yuanzi in surprise.
Xiao Yuanzi had no time to answer Qian Baishun's question and said, "Get up quickly and follow me. Our queen wants to see you."
As soon as Qian Baishun heard that the Queen wanted to see him, he immediately became alert.
