Chapter 198 It's bad, His Highness has been taken into the palace by the Emperor's men
As soon as Tang Peipei saw Mu Jintang, she went to greet him.
Before Mu Jintang could ask, Tang Peipei said, "Noble Concubine Shu wrote a letter to the Fifth Prince before. I don't know the content of the letter, but I guess she wanted the Fifth Prince to agree to put her name under her name and make the Fifth Prince her adopted son. However, the letter doesn't seem to have reached the Fifth Prince. I'm worried that someone intercepted the letter and interfered."
Mu Jintang thought for a moment, looked at Ye Yunshu beside him and asked, "Are you sure that the Fifth Prince did not receive this letter?"
Ye Yunshu shook his head, "I'm not sure, but I've never heard His Highness mention this."
The Fifth Prince and Ye Yunshu have a very good relationship and will share everything with each other without reservation. If the Fifth Prince received the letter, there is no reason for him not to tell Ye Yunshu.
After discussing it for a while, they decided to go back to the city to meet the Fifth Prince first.
But just as they had arranged the military affairs and had not yet left the barracks, the guards around the fifth prince hurriedly dismounted and ran towards them.
Ye Yunshu felt something was wrong and hurried forward to ask.
"Princess, it's bad. His Highness has been taken into the palace by the Emperor's men."
Ye Yunshu's body swayed, and he tried to remain calm and said, "Please tell me clearly, were you invited to the palace or were you taken into custody? Do you know why?"
The guard said anxiously, "They were brought into the palace by Eunuch Du, who is beside the emperor. Eunuch Du did not say what the matter was, but quietly handed a note to his subordinates and asked them to give it to General Mu."
He said as he handed over the note in his hand.
Mu Jintang took the note and read it. It read: "Shu, the emperor is furious! Please be careful!"
"Let's go back to the city first and talk on the way." Mu Jintang used his internal force to shake the note into powder, which floated in the air. He then pulled Tang Peipei onto the carriage first.
Originally, in order to avoid suspicion, Mu Jintang got on the carriage first, and Ye Yunshu could not go in.
But at this moment, he could no longer care about these rules. With Tang Peipei, the legitimate wife, present, Ye Yunshu also got on the carriage.
The carriage rocked.
Mu Jintang looked at Tang Peipei and asked, "Did you guess something?"
Tang Peipei nodded, but asked, "What was written on the note just now?"
"Shu, the emperor is very angry, please be careful!"
Tang Peipei said, "It seems that my guess has come true. The Fifth Prince was detained, which must be related to Imperial Concubine Shu. And according to my guess, someone used the letter Imperial Concubine Shu wrote to the Fifth Prince to falsely accuse Imperial Concubine Shu of having an affair with the Fifth Prince."
Ye Yunshu immediately refuted loudly: "Impossible!!"
Tang Peipei took her hand and said, "We all know this is impossible, so if it is really as I guessed, this person must have taken this letter and forged the handwriting, and rewritten a letter that can prove that the Fifth Prince and Concubine Shu had an affair."
If that's the case, then the problem will be difficult to resolve.
"Then what should we do now? How can we prove your innocence? You have to know that Concubine Shu is the emperor's favorite concubine. If the charges are proven, your highness will never be able to turn over!" Ye Yunshu said, forcing herself to stay calm, tears falling uncontrollably. She was not afraid that the fifth prince would never turn over. Even if he was exiled, as long as he was alive, he could see hope.
However, she was afraid of the emperor's anger and did not give the fifth prince any chance to survive.
She didn't want to cry, she didn't want to be so cowardly, but when she thought that the man who was as gentle as water to her might never come back and she might never see him again, she couldn't hold back her tears.
Tang Peipei held the man in his arms and comforted him, "Yunshu, don't worry. Believe me, we will definitely find a way to save His Highness."
Ye Yunshu nodded, but still couldn't stop crying.
Tang Peipei stopped trying to persuade him and thought seriously about how to resolve the current situation.
"The most important thing right now is to find out what the content of the letter is." Tang Peipei analyzed, "If we can find the original letter, we can know who is forging it. In my opinion, we can start with the person who sent the letter."
Mu Jintang thought the same and asked, "You said that when you entered the palace today, Concubine Shu mentioned this matter. Did she say who helped her deliver the letter?"
Tang Peipei shook her head. "She only said that he was a guard. She didn't say his name."
"There are thousands of guards in the palace. Isn't it like looking for a needle in a haystack to find this guard?" Ye Yunshu finally stopped crying and asked.
"Jintang, can you think of a way to go to the palace now?" Tang Peipei asked.
Mu Jintang pondered and nodded, "What do you want to do?"
Tang Peipei said: "There is a nanny beside Concubine Shu, who seems to be very trusted by Concubine Shu. I want to go find this person."
Mu Jintang nodded. Indeed, now they could only try to start with people who knew the situation.
Well, since this matter was caused by Concubine Shu, we must start with the people around her.
Mu Jintang and his wife sent Ye Yunshu back to the Fifth Prince's Mansion without any further ado. There was really no need to do so now.
If the fifth prince manages to escape this time, then he will certainly have to fight a tough battle next.
If the Fifth Prince cannot escape this time, they will have no future.
In fact, the emperor has few adult princes. Only the third and fifth princes have some talent. The others are like A Dou, who is hopeless and is of no use.
Therefore, the only thing that the Fifth Prince lost to the Third Prince was his birth.
The fifth prince's biological mother was just a palace maid. She died of illness not long after giving birth to the fifth prince. The fifth prince was raised by a nanny.
The nanny was worried that the people in the palace had ulterior motives, and that the Fifth Prince was just a little kid and looked really pitiful. She couldn't bear to see him become a victim of the fights among the women in the palace, so she kept a low profile.
Mammy is an educated woman and knows a lot of things.
The Fifth Prince’s talents were all taught by the nanny.
She taught him to learn to hide his shortcomings, to learn to show weakness, but also to learn to stand out inadvertently.
It's hard to see his true ability, but he doesn't seem too clumsy either.
She still hoped that this motherless child could be seen by the emperor inadvertently, so that the child could experience a little bit of fatherly love.
When the Third Prince saw the contents of the letter written by Concubine Shu to the Fifth Prince, he had only one thought, that is, he must not let Concubine Shu recognize the Fifth Prince.
So, he called his adviser who was best at imitating other people's handwriting, and asked him to write a completely different letter, and then let this letter appear in front of the emperor inadvertently.
He had imagined it well.
He originally wanted to make Concubine Shu commit adultery with a guard, but was caught by the emperor himself, which then made the emperor so angry that his blood boiled and he died.
However, he never expected that Concubine Shu would give him such a big pie.
Wouldn’t it be a pity if he didn’t answer?
I don’t know what my father would do if he saw this letter full of affection written by Concubine Shu to my fifth brother?
The third prince entered the palace with the intention of watching a show, and he was accompanied by another prince, the second prince Bai Libai.
