Chapter 741: Release from prison, giving great benefits
Chapter 741: Release from prison, giving great benefits
Yun Mujiu had long wanted to wait for Wu Mingwei to be released from prison before taking the next step.
These days, Doctor Wu's followers have been running around, trying to rescue Doctor Wu and his daughter.
On the one hand, these followers wanted to rescue Doctor Wu and his daughter from prison, but unfortunately they couldn't find a way.
The people in the Night Palace put pressure on the emperor, and the emperor could not protect Wu Shenyi and his daughter in public. What's more, the outside world had spread the news that it was Wu Shenyi and his daughter who caused the prince to get into trouble.
Even if Doctor Wu and his daughter are really innocent, they have been taking care of the prince's health, and the prince's accident must be related to them. The crime of "failure to take good care of the prince and murdering the prince" alone is enough to kill them both.
On the other hand, those followers wanted to find out the truth about how Doctor Wu and his daughter murdered the prince. Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, they could not find out who was the real culprit behind the poisoning of the prince.
The funny thing is that when they finally found out, based on the clues they knew, Doctor Wu and his daughter seemed to be the real murderers of the prince. So, they didn't dare to investigate further.
In fact, except for the people in the Night Palace, no one knew that the reason why the prince was poisoned by Beihan's ice grass was not because of the sachets on Doctor Wu and his daughter and the medicine prescribed by Doctor Wu for the prince, but because Yun Mujiu pierced the prince with three silver needles soaked in poison.
The emperor used Beihan's poison to cause Ye Xiaohan's herbal bath to fail, and almost killed Ye Xiaohan, Yun Mujiu, and even the entire Ye Palace. In this disaster, Doctor Wu and his daughter could not escape responsibility. It was because they had ill intentions towards Ye Xiaohan that the emperor and others took the opportunity to succeed.
Wu Mingwei also wanted to kill Yun Mujiu for her own selfish reasons, but she also wanted to marry Ye Xiaohan without considering the risk of Ye Xiaohan's life if the medicinal bath failed. In short, both Wu the Divine Doctor and Wu Mingwei had the intention of killing people.
The Emperor and Wu the Divine Doctor and his daughter harmed Yun Mujiu and others, and Yun Mujiu chose to repay the debt. While taking revenge on the Crown Prince, he also used a similar strategy to defeat Wu the Divine Doctor and his daughter!
Yun Mujiu thought about it again and again, and he had already thought of how to hold a wedding for Wu Mingwei...
She warned Wu Mingwei, but unfortunately Wu Mingwei didn't learn her lesson. For a person like Wu Mingwei who is like a poisonous snake, always hiding in the dark, waiting to suddenly crawl out and kill people, Yun Mujiu chose to cut the grass and root it out, without any saintly heart.
As the saying goes, a kind person is often bullied, and a kind horse is often ridden. Being too kind is stupid.
Doctor Fu kept flipping through the red words in Doctor Wu's medical book, uttering bursts of frightened noises.
"Knock, knock, knock..." A sudden knock on the door startled everyone in the room.
Doctor Fu slapped his chest and heard someone say, "Miss, your husband is here to see you." It was Wang Gui's voice.
Everyone was stunned. Yun Mujiu raised his eyebrows and said quickly, "Please come in."
Sometimes people call her Miss outside, but since the word "husband" is mentioned, who else could it be but that person?
The door opened and a tall man walked in, followed by a man dressed as a warrior and a nodding shopkeeper.
The tall Ye Xiaohan glanced at Wang Gui, who had a flattering smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Not bad."
Ok…
He liked the word "husband".
Wang Gui nodded happily, his face ecstatic. Lord Ye was the husband of the Dong family and also the husband of Princess Ye. Now he could actually get a compliment from the Night King. This feeling was really wonderful!
Everyone in the room stood up and saluted, and Wei Song, who was dressed as a warrior, nodded to Yun Mujiu.
Yun Mujiu asked softly, "My Lord, why are you here?"
"I just finished my official business and came to accompany you." Ye Xiaohan's eyes fell on Yun Mujiu, who was dressed in a fresh outfit.
"Okay..." Yun Mujiu smiled. Ye Xiaohan's sudden arrival made her feel like she was being picked up by her family after get off work.
Yun Mujiu asked Ye Xiaohan to take a seat and quickly told him about the conversation she had just had with Doctor Fu and the others. She had said these things to Ye Xiaohan last night and this morning.
Suixi silently withdrew his gaze from the Chinese medicine book in Doctor Fu's hand. Live dissection and human experiments were really scary.
Du Ziheng saw the red words in Wu Shenyi's medical book before Doctor Fu and others, and it was the princess who asked him to read it first. At this time, Du Ziheng had long passed the time of looking terrified, and sat alone in a corner, silently watching the frightened expressions of Doctor Fu and others.
Suixi was frightened by the contents of the book. He was a guard, and he was not afraid of murder or arson. But he felt uncomfortable watching the dissection of a living person and the cruel torture of a good person in various ways.
Suixi decided to divert attention and said with a slightly pursed mouth - "Princess, the emperor has not yet carried out the final execution of Doctor Wu and his daughter."
Fusang raised his eyes to glance at Suixi, then followed suit.
Yun Mujiu chuckled and explained the reason why the emperor imprisoned Doctor Wu and his daughter instead of executing them immediately.
"The Emperor has not completely given up on Doctor Wu and his daughter. For one thing, he still wants to see if he can squeeze benefits out of them. After all, Doctor Wu has been practicing medicine for many years and has accumulated a lot of connections and power. Compared with ordinary doctors, he has better medical skills."
"Secondly, Divine Doctor Wu is a famous doctor in Beihan. He is also involved in many Beihan affairs. The Emperor does not want to offend Beihan's doctors easily."
In other words, Doctor Wu’s case involves the national social level between Zhongyue and Beihan.
Ye Xiaohan knew that the emperor intended to protect Doctor Wu and his daughter. The news that Doctor Wu and his daughter were plotting to murder the prince had been spread early in the morning. Under pressure from public opinion, the emperor had no choice but to neither release Doctor Wu and his daughter from prison nor treat them any better.
During this period, no new clues have been found in the case of Doctor Wu and his daughter poisoning the prince. The emperor and his subordinates have been influenced by the public opinion created by Ye Xiaohan, and are increasingly anxious to find out the truth, but they can't find anything. There is something wrong with Doctor Wu and his daughter - the execution of these two people is imminent.
Suixi listened and thought, then said seriously: "Thank you for your explanation, Princess. I understand."
Then, he was puzzled again: "Princess, wasn't Wu Mingwei in prison on the verge of death? Why did the emperor suddenly let her out?"
Ye Xiaohan suddenly took over the conversation and said lightly: "It's nothing more than a benefit."
"Your Highness, do you mean that Divine Doctor Wu has given His Majesty a great benefit?" Sui Xi opened his mouth wide and whispered, "The Emperor has so many resources at his disposal, he shouldn't be short of anything, right?"
Fusang was also puzzled, and continued Suixi's words: "Your Highness, Princess, what benefit can Divine Doctor Wu give to the Emperor that would make the Emperor release Wu Mingwei without caring about the case that Divine Doctor Wu and his daughter are carrying."
You must know that when Wu Mingwei was in very bad condition in prison and Doctor Wu's condition worsened, the emperor never agreed to let Doctor Wu and Wu Mingwei out.
Suixi and Fusang have been busy practicing martial arts to achieve breakthroughs these past two days, and are not very familiar with some of the latest information obtained by the Night Palace.
In response, Ye Xiao said two words in a cold voice: "Benefits..."
