"Are you referring to Wei Sizhong? The speed of Northern Liang's reaction was beyond my expectation."
Yang Qing said calmly, "It seems that the north is still very fond of Wei Sizhong."
"Master, how should we respond next?"
Bu Er handed it over.
"Since they still choose to protect, then let them end up losing both their wives and their troops."
Yang Qing After finishing speaking, he stood up slowly and said, "Bathe and change clothes for me, I want to meet the emperor."
"Going to see the emperor at this time?"
Bu Er raised his head and glanced at the sky outside. "It's getting dark outside. Imperial City Zhong, I'm afraid the key will be released soon."
"There will be heavy rain today, and there is still an hour before it rains."
After Yang Qing finished speaking, he stood up and looked inward. "Success or failure depends on this one move, don't miss the opportunity."
After hearing this, Bu Er calmed down and called the servants in the mansion to bring hot water. After bathing Yang Qing himself, he helped him change Court Robes.
Later, he personally drove the car and sent Yang Qing into the palace.
Within Imperial City, Imperial Study
Chu Jinghui had finished reviewing all the memorials on the imperial case and was about to put down the writing when he heard Eunuch Zhang coming to report, "Your Majesty, Lord Yang has come to the palace to see the Emperor."
"Yang Chengming? Are the injuries on his body healed? It's true that I haven't seen him for some time, tell me!"
"According to the order!"
Eunuch Zhang bowed and stepped back. After a moment, Chu Jinghui saw Yang Qing in formal clothes slowly approaching.
"I bow to the emperor, long live the emperor!"
As soon as Yang Qing saw Chu Jinghui, he lifted his robe and knelt down.
"Yang Aiqing, are you in such a hurry to enter the palace today? Do you have something urgent to report? Are the injuries on your body so easy?"
Chu Jinghui waved his hand. "Give me a seat!"
Yang Qing Most of his body was hanging out of the chair, but he was sitting firmly.
"When I return to the emperor, I have recovered from my injuries. Since I have been recuperating at my residence these days and have not been able to come to pay my respects to the emperor, I feel uneasy. Now that I have seen the great blessing, I am naturally eager to come and tell the emperor."
Chu Jinghui paused and said, "I am very happy that you are fine. Now that the Northern Liang mission is coming to an end, I would like to order you to accompany the mission back to Northern Liang. Yang Aiqing, what do you think?"
"My minister, it all depends on the emperor's orders."
Yang Qing cupped his hands, as if he had just remembered. "However, I heard a few days ago that Chancellor Wei suddenly became seriously ill in prison. I wonder if the emperor knows about this?"
"Wei Sizhong is seriously ill in prison? I don't know."
Yang Qing lowered his eyes and said, "That is too much for me to say. I originally thought that although Chancellor Wei had acted beyond the rules, his heart for the emperor should not have changed anyway. Now he is seriously ill in prison, with no one to care for him, and his situation is very miserable, so I said this."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
After Yang Qing finished speaking, he was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Chu Jinghui: "What Aiqing said was not wrong, so what crime is there?"
While he was talking, there was a faint sound of banging clappers outside, Yang Qing, as if waking up from a dream. "I was thinking that my health was no longer serious, so I came to thank you, but I didn't expect that it was late and it was time for me to leave.
Chu Jinghui nodded and said, "Well, kneel down!"
Yang Qing After bowing and exiting, he walked outside and felt a dampness in the air that hit his face.
He raised his head, looked at the sky above his head, and murmured to himself, "This heavy rain is probably going to fall!"
When he returned to the carriage, there was a strong wind outside and black clouds covered the sky, making it difficult to see what was happening on the road.
Bu Er pulled the reins tightly and slowly drove the horse to pull the car in the direction of Yang Residence.
At the same time, Chu Jinghui, who came out of Imperial Study, also glanced at the dark sky above his head and remained silent for a long time.
However, Eunuch Zhang who was following behind him took a step forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, dinner has been prepared at the other end of the royal dining room. Can we pass it on now?"
Chu Jinghui suddenly came to his senses, but waved his hand to him and said, "No, please call Suotu and come with me to Celestial Prison."
Eunuch Zhang was secretly frightened. He immediately remembered that Yang Qing had just mentioned that Wei Sizhong was seriously ill in prison. He felt relieved and quickly turned around and sent Suotu over.
Suotu was quite surprised when he heard that Chu Jinghui decided to enter Celestial Prison at this time, but he didn't show it on his face. He watched Eunuch Zhang prepare a short-haired cloak and an umbrella, and followed Chu Jinghui to go to Celestial Prison.
As soon as I walked to the door of Celestial Prison, there was a thunderous thunder above my head, rolling past my ears. One after another, lightning struck above the Celestial Prison one after another.
In this period of light and death, looking at the Celestial Prison door makes people feel a little ferocious and terrifying for no reason.
The jailers responsible for guarding Celestial Prison did not expect that the emperor would arrive at this time. They were so frightened that they wanted to go in and report, but were blocked by Chu Jinghui.
"I just came over for a casual look, so there's no need for you to panic."
Chu Jinghui walked gently into the gate of Celestial Prison and found that the jailers who were supposed to be on duty everywhere were all gathered in one place, and the sound of guessing and paddling could be heard endlessly.
Not only that, he also saw several exquisitely crafted food boxes placed at their feet, which were obviously made by Tavern, a famous artist outside the palace.
His eyes became colder and colder, until he saw that the door of the prison where Wei Sizhong was being held was open, and someone was serving food to Wei Sizhong. His eyes were as cold as ice.
Eunuch Zhang, who was standing behind him, also saw this scene. He was horrified and was about to step forward, but saw that Chu Jinghui had already turned around and walked away.
He paused for a moment, glanced at some people over there who were still busy entertaining themselves, sighed secretly, and without saying a word, Celestial Prison followed Chu Jinghui out.
Chu Jinghui was walking so fast that he didn't even notice the raindrops falling on him.
Eunuch Zhang and Suotu trotted all the way before catching up with Chu Jinghui, and all they heard was his calm voice. "Send the order and kill all the jailers who are responsible for guarding Celestial Prison today!"
Hearing this, Eunuch Zhang shook involuntarily and saw that Chu Jinghui had already set his eyes on him. "What?"
Eunuch Zhang fell to his knees with a plop. "Slave, I obey the order!"
Xu was still angry at this, Chu Jinghui said again, "Give Wei Sizhong to Heavy Shackles, and I will kill you at noon tomorrow!"
This time, even Suotu also knelt down. "Your Majesty, Wei Sizhong and below are guilty of offending Tianyan and deserve death! Your Majesty, please calm down and take care of your dragon body!"
Chu Jinghui snorted heavily and turned around to leave.
At this time, a dazzling lightning flashed across the sky again, and then a heavy rain poured down, soon covering everything in the world.
And Celestial Prison, there was already a wailing sound, but it was soon drowned in the deafening sound of rain.
