Xie Yao didn't know why, but she thought of Chu Ye who was transferred to the prison, "Is there anyone in that prison?"
"Only one person is imprisoned, His Royal Highness Prince Chen, who has just been transferred from another prison." When the Imperial Guard said this, he glanced at the emperor cautiously.
In private, they all called Chu Ye whatever they wanted, but in front of the emperor, he didn't know what to call him, so he just said the previous title.
Chu Han didn't care about the title, but when he knew that Chu Ye was being held in the prison where the fire broke out, he frowned slightly and asked, "How is the fire? Can you take the person out already?"
"Your Majesty, the fire was discovered early, so His Royal Highness Prince Chen has been brought out and placed under strict supervision while the rest went to extinguish the fire," the Yulin Army reported.
Chu Han nodded slightly and issued an order in a deep voice, "Bring more people over and extinguish the fire as soon as possible. In addition, take King Chen to the secret prison in the palace."
"Yes!" The Royal Forest Army paused and took the order to retreat.
The secret prison is the strictest prison in the palace, where the late emperor was previously imprisoned.
Xie Yao then thought about it and opened the window to feel the outside. The air humidity was relatively high.
It has been raining recently, and the palace has lush vegetation and many pools. Therefore, the air humidity has been very high recently and there is no wind. The probability of a natural fire is very slim.
With his eyes focused, Xie Yao turned around and told Chu Han the situation, and then suggested: "Let's go over and take a look."
"So, someone set the fire deliberately?" Chu Han understood Xie Yao's guess, and a chill spread throughout his body.
"It's just a guess. I'll go and see it first before talking." Xie Yao was not entirely sure, but she had doubts in her heart.
If it was just an ordinary prison, she wouldn't think about it, but this prison held Chu Ye, and Chu Ye just moved there today!
"Come here, prepare the sedan chair to drive us out!" Chu Han ordered outside, and then told Xie Yao, "You are heavy, the sedan chair is outside, you sit down, and we will go there together."
Xie Yao nodded, it would be nice to have a sedan chair to drive him out.
She also ran a lot today. Although she came back and rested, she could not completely relieve her fatigue.
"It seems that this dinner will have to be eaten later." Just as the palace people came outside with the dinner, Chu Han glanced at it and joked with a smile when he left.
Seeing the dinner, Xie Yao's stomach growled a few times. She was indeed hungry.
Xie Yao turned her head away and continued forward, "It's okay to eat later."
Recently, her appetite has increased a lot, and she can now eat many dishes that she didn't like before.
Maybe the little one in the belly needs more nutritious dinner.
Soon, Xie Yao got on the sedan chair, and together with Chu Han, went straight to the burning prison.
From a distance, I saw a group of forest guards suddenly rushing into the fire scene. They didn't even have water in their hands. They entered empty-handed and rushed directly into the depths of the fire scene!
Xie Yao saw some doubts in her heart and immediately ordered to speed up and rush over.
Chu Han knew that Xie Yao was eager, so he simply picked up Xie Yao and flew over.
"What's going on? Why didn't they bring water when they rushed into the fire?" Chu Han asked in a deep voice before Xie Yao could speak.
When the imperial guard next to him saw that it was Chu Han, he immediately knelt down and saluted, "When I came back to the emperor, I was putting out the fire while a man in black suddenly jumped out from nowhere and stabbed His Highness Prince Chen with a sword without saying a word."
"Bizhi and others tried their best to intercept, but they were caught off guard and the man stabbed King Chen with his sword and threw King Chen into the fire! They went to save His Highness King Chen."
Chu Han frowned, his expression unpredictable.
Xie Yao's heart moved and she immediately thought of a name: Yushu.
Princess Minghui said that Yushu would kill Chu Ye.
She turned her head and looked at Chu Han, seeing that Chu Han had the same idea.
"Where is the assassin?" Xie Yao knew that Chu Ye was thrown into the fire, but she was not worried. She was more curious about why Yu Shu wanted to kill Chu Ye.
The Imperial Forest Army pointed to the distance, "He was captured alive right there. The poison was also found in the assassin's mouth and has been taken out."
Xie Yao took a look and happened to see a man in black being pinned to the ground. He had obviously just been caught.
Chu Han ordered someone to escort the man in black directly.
When the man in black was escorted over, the black scarf on his face had been removed, revealing his appearance.
Xie Yao recognized it at a glance and it was Yu Shu.
When Yu Shu saw Chu Han and Xie Yao, there was no fear on his face. He held his head high and said, "The person I want to kill is King Chen, not you. If you want to kill me, please do whatever you want!"
Yushu already regarded death as home.
Xie Yao raised her eyebrows slightly and asked: "Prince Chen is your master, why do you want to kill him? You had already escaped. If you run away, you will lose your life. If you come back, you will definitely die."
"Because he deserves to be killed!" Yu Shu gritted his teeth in hatred, actually hating Chu Ye in his heart, "Feng Qing followed him and was conscientious of his duties. He did everything he could and couldn't do, but still
I live in fear."
"Even so, King Chen still doesn't regard him as a human being. In order to protect himself, he directly pulled Feng Qing out to die! This kind of master deserves to be killed!"
Xie Yao remembered that Yu Shu and Feng Qing entered Prince Chen's Mansion in the same group.
The wind is gentle, the rain is sparse, and their names fit so well...
It turned out that this was the reason why Yu Shu wanted to kill Chu Ye, and there was no hidden force behind it.
Because she could see that the hatred in Yu Shu's eyes was very real.
At this time, Chu Ye was carried out of the fire scene by the forest guards, with flames still on his body.
Someone poured a bucket of water directly on it, extinguishing the living seedlings.
"Yushu! I treat you so well, but you assassinate me! Ah!" Chu Ye was carried out and happened to hear Yu Shu's voice and what Yu Shu said.
When he was assassinated, the other party was masked, but the voice sounded familiar to him.
Now that he knew his identity, he immediately scolded him in a deep voice, but he didn't expect that the wound had been touched and he immediately screamed in pain!
When Xie Yao saw Chu Ye coming out, he glanced over and frowned.
Although Chu Ye had just been thrown into the fire, he was very unlucky. His face should have hit something on fire. His whole face was densely covered with large and small blisters, and some places were even burnt, revealing the inside.
of flesh and blood.
With such a serious burn, if you accidentally pull the wound, it will be heartbreaking pain!
Chu Han also took a look and took in Chu Ye's injuries without saying a word.
He did not intend to treat him.
If anyone could cure this injury, that person could only be Xie Yao.
Just to expose Chu Ye's crimes to the world, he preferred to let Xie Yao do it without any trouble, and Xie Yao was still pregnant.
Xie Yao just glanced at it lightly.
Chu Ye's love to death has nothing to do with her.
Moreover, Chu Ye died under Yu Shu's sword, which saved Chu Han the effort and killed two birds with one stone.
When Yu Shu saw that Chu Ye was so badly burned, he immediately looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, "King Chen, you have done something wrong for yourself! This is your retribution!"
"Bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yulu suddenly exploded and died!
