Chapter 236 1 Thoughts on Guanshan 43
Walking into the front yard, the moonlight cast a mottled shadow on the ground. Eunuch Andu, a short man with an arrogant look on his face, appeared. He raised his head slightly, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes, and said loudly, "Since everyone is here, please accept the order quickly, Your Highness Prince Li!"
Yang Ying, dressed in a gorgeous gown, stood tall and graceful. She frowned slightly, a flicker of doubt and displeasure in her eyes as she slowly spoke, "Since I've been summoned to an audience, why haven't I seen the official imperial edict? I'm the Prince of Etiquette in Dawu. Is this the way Anguo treats me?"
The eunuch's originally arrogant expression suddenly froze at this moment, and a panic surged in his heart. He swallowed his saliva subconsciously, and now he dared not speak in such an arrogant and domineering manner as before.
After a moment, he forced himself to remain calm, forced a smile, and stammered, "Indeed...it was indeed an order from His Majesty himself. Your Highness, please follow me and don't waste time."
After saying that, he led the way and took Yang Ying towards the palace.
On the other side, Ren Ruyi was wearing a light nightgown and was as agile as a civet cat. Thinking of the death of Queen Zhaojie, her eyes were firm and sharp. At this moment, her heart was full of obsession with the cause of Queen Zhaojie's death and the real culprit who destroyed the Wudu branch.
Afterwards, the situation changed suddenly. In the blink of an eye, the situation in the entire Anguo underwent a huge change.
First, Emperor An suddenly broke his promise and detained Emperor Wu on various pretexts, causing the relationship between the two countries to fall into a tense stalemate. The people in Liudao Hall were extremely anxious and tried their best to rescue Emperor Wu.
Through secret investigation and gathering of information, Ren Ruyi finally learned that the reason why Empress Zhaojie chose to commit suicide by burning was because she was ruthlessly betrayed by her loved ones.
This truth hit her heart like a bolt from the blue, igniting a raging anger in her heart.
She knew that she had to seek justice for the empress, in order to expose Emperor An's collusion with the enemy Beipan, buying horses from the Beipan people, and falsely accusing Empress Zhaojie.
So he joined forces with Ning Yuanzhou and began to carefully plan a series of actions to disrupt the situation in the court.
They cleverly plotted and framed the eldest prince, using various means to force the second prince to fight each other, which eventually led to the tragic death of the eldest prince and the expulsion of the second prince to guard Tianmen Pass.
It's a different kind of exile.
Amidst this series of events, undercurrents were surging in the Anguo court.
Emperor An's old face looked even more ferocious with anger. His only two adult sons were one dead and one exiled. This sudden blow ignited a raging fire in his heart, as if it was going to burn the entire court to ashes.
When he learned that Ren Ruyi was the culprit who caused his two sons to suffer such a tragic end, the darkness in Emperor An's eyes was as thick ink, tightly locking onto Deng Hui who was kneeling on the ground.
The voice echoed through the hall like a deep thunder: "Deng Hui, go and capture Ren Xin for me. This man is guilty of heinous crimes and must not be allowed to escape justice! If you fail this mission, you will not need to return to see me again, and your family will bear the consequences!"
Deng Hui lowered his head, as if he had lost all his life. He lay on the ground motionless. After a long time, he slowly uttered a word: "Yes!"
Afterwards, the Zhuyi Guards swept out again like a black wave. They scattered in all directions, searching for Ren Ruyi's trace in an almost crazy state.
Every street and every corner is left with their hurried figures and anxious shouts.
Those places that were once prosperous and bustling now seem to be shrouded in an ominous atmosphere. People are hiding in their homes and dare not go out easily for fear of getting into trouble.
Siyikan
Everyone frowned as they listened to the constant footsteps of the Red-robed Guards outside.
Ning Yuanzhou said with a worried look on his face, "Ruyi, Emperor An might have found out about you. Right now, the Red Guards are everywhere looking for you. You'd better not go out recently. They don't know you're in the Four Barbarians Pavilion either. Wait until this storm is over before you tell them."
Ren Ruyi knew his worry, and holding Ning Yuanzhou's big hand, she chuckled and said soothingly: "It's okay, I've been living outside these days, I'm more familiar with Andu than you are, and you still have to rescue people, and if I'm here, it's easy to involve you and cause trouble."
Ning Yuanzhou knew that she knew what she was doing so he had to give up and stop trying to persuade her. However, he had secretly made up his mind that no matter what, he would do everything he could to protect her and never let her get hurt.
