Chapter 178
The Cold Prince Dotes On His Wild Wife
Just as he finished speaking, the old wet nurse by Mu Ziyanâs side walked out and knelt in front of Helian Honglie, crying as she complained:
âYour Majesty is clear that this old servant is in charge of the Empressâs meals and has never made any mistakes. Moreover, the Empressâ daily meal is just a single vegetable and there is no way for the situation described by the wangfei to occur.â
After hearing what the mama had said, Helian Honglieâs gaze shifted to Mo Xie. Upon seeing this, Mo Xie sneered in her heart. How could she explain herself today? Would she be framed?
Currently, Helian Yi still did not know of his whereabouts. Wushang was in King Jing Residence and Falcon had gone far again. It was not easy to get to know Longevity, but suddenly, his Longevity disappeared without a trace. There was still no news from the four great hall masters. She should not have called out Tian Tian so meekly right now. It seemed that Mu Ziyan had hardened her heart to have her stay in the Imperial Palace today!
Coming back to his senses, Mo Long looked at Helian Honglie with his eyes wide open. royal father, this son did not frame the empress. As for why the empress was poisoned, this son truly does not know. â
Helian Honglie ordered somewhat irritably:
âSomeone come!â Iâm taking Princess Jing to the Ministry of Justice. Wait until Xiang Fei wakes up, then weâll make our plans! â
After hearing what Helian Honglie had said, Mo Lang let out a cold laugh. Should she say that this man was not suited to be emperor, or should she lament the deep love that existed between them?
When he saw Helian Honglieâs cold gaze, Helian Honglieâs heart tightened. The mama by Mu Ziyanâs side was so frightened that she couldnât say a word. She knelt on the ground with her head lowered.
Mo Long heard the movement behind him and turned around to look at the guard.
âDonât touch me! I will leave myself! â
Seeing this, Yueâer fell to her knees, begging for mercy. âYour majesty, please spare esteemed wangfei. Thereâs no way that wangfei can frame esteemed wangfei.â Please be merciful, your majesty! â
Seeing Yueâerâs loyalty, Helian Honglie did not want to punish Mo Xie. He was just putting on an act, after all, Helian Yi was still here, what could Helian Lie do to Mo Xie?
With a sigh, Helian Honglie reminded the guards, âTake this maid away with you!â
âYes, your majesty!â
Just like that, Mo Xie was framed by Mu Ziyan, and she was locked in the prison of the imperial palace. Yue Er was naturally locked in as well.
This matter was quickly known by everyone. Naturally, he had also entered Jing King Manor. Upon hearing the news, Wushang anxiously paced back and forth in his study. There was no news of his master, and the four hall masters had not been found yet. If he were to enter the palace, he would definitely expose himself.
Helian Yu had almost suspected this before, but fortunately, Mo Xie was still holding onto Fu Yifan as he dragged her into the fray, trapping Helian Yu. He had been angered by Fu Yifan to the point that he did not dare to step out of Prince Xiangâs manor.
Wushang could never have imagined that at this critical juncture, Mo Xie would be summoned into the Imperial Palace, and then suddenly thrown into the dungeon.
A series of knocks came from the door. From the sound, Wushang knew that the person must be Guo Xiang.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Other than Guo Xiang, no one else in Kingâs Manor dared to knock on Helian Yiâs door so brazenly.
Wushang quickly retracted his expression, instantly changing into Helian Yiâs appearance. Even his expression of slight anger was vivid and lifelike.
He opened the door, glanced at Guo Xiang, and asked in a low voice, âWhat are you doing here so early in the morning?â
Guo Xiang took a glance at Helian Yi and hurriedly said, âKing Jing, this is bad. Elder sister is in trouble!â
Helian Yi shot a cold glance at Guo Xiang before saying coldly, âThis king knows!â
âWhat?â You know, why arenât you going to save your sister? She was locked up in a dungeon. It was dangerous. â
âHelian Yiâsâ expression was as cold and emotionless as usual. There was not a trace of warmth in his words, causing Guo Xiangâs heart to turn cold.
âThis King knows.â If there is nothing else, you should obediently stay where you are. Otherwise, I will order someone to send you back to the Country of Fusang! â
Hearing Helian Yiâs words, Guo Xiang was stunned for a moment. She still couldnât leave Ming You Country, and Wushang still hadnât returned. Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! She was inexplicably locked in the dungeon, so she didnât want to just leave like that.
Seeing Helian Yi staring coldly at him, Guo Xiang hurriedly lowered his head and left. When he left, he didnât forget to remind his, âYour Royal Highness, you must save my sister!â
When Guo Xiangâs figure disappeared from the northern garden, Helian Yiâs icy gaze suddenly collapsed and became as gentle as water.
He also wanted to rush to the imperial palace as soon as possible to save his wangfei, but he couldnât. Looking at Guo Xiangâs disappointed back, his heart was also tightly tangled. She was afraid that she would be distressed and sad at the other side of the park because she was worried about Mo Li.
Wushang suddenly felt that he was useless. The veins on the back of his hand bulged as his hand tightly gripped the door frame. He could only wait for Falcon to return as soon as possible. If his master was here, everything would be solved!
In the valley, Helian Yu Chen sat in front of the alchemy furnace, staring at the raging fire.
Falcon walked behind him and asked curiously, âOld man, you have been working on it for the whole night, are you done yet?â Can it be used? Can Yi Yi Tian wake up? â
Helian Yu Chen stared dejectedly at the furnace and frowned. This pill could not be refined in sixteen hours. These sixteen hours would take at least a day and a night. Therefore, he had to guard by the side of the furnace to prevent any accidents.
Hearing the Falcon constantly muttering into his ear, Helian Yu Chen raised his eyes and gave the falcon a cold look, âStinky brat! âShut the hell up!â
âShut up? âImpossible!â
âIf you donât shut your mouth, Iâm afraid it will be difficult for that kid to wake up again.â This was not a joke from Helian Yu Chen. He had used all of the herbs he got back for this round of refining pills. If he did not succeed, Helian Yiâs life would be in vain.
No matter what happened now, it would not affect his ability to concoct pills or save Helian Yi.
When Falcon heard Helian Yu Chenâs words, he was stunned for a moment. Looking at the expression on Helian Yu Chenâs face, he knew that this old man was serious this time. His heart tightened and he hurriedly took a few steps back. He didnât want to disturb Helian Yu Chen any longer.
At this moment, in the dungeon of Ming You Countryâs royal palace, Mo Li and Yueâer were locked in the deepest part of the dungeon.
Yueâer sat in the corner, her arms wrapped around her knees, her face full of fear. Suddenly, a mouse scuttled out and ran to her feet, scaring Yueâer to the point of screaming.
âAll of you, go away! Go away? Donât come over, donât come over! â
Mo Long raised his head and looked at Yueâer. He then walked over and stood in front of her, reminding her:
âDonât be afraid, Yue Er, this is only a mouse! âItâs fine.â
Yueâer was frightened out of her wits as she said in a trembling voice,
âEsteemed wangfei, your servant is afraid. âWoo woo â¦â
When she was at the Jing King Manor, she had been locked in the woodshed, but it was not as frightening as this. She was scared of these little things, scared to death. She never thought that one day, she would be locked up in such a dark dungeon with her master.
