C235 Sinking into the Celestial Prison

"Take these two down and lock them up in the prison. We'll wait for their orders!" Fu Yuheng ordered with an icy look in his eyes. Then, he turned his head away in disgust. He did not look at Liu Chugrong, who was still lying on the ground with an ashen face.

"Your majesty, chenqie is wronged!" Liu Chu Rong still didn't give up as he looked at the guards neatly walking in from outside. He used his hands and legs to throw himself at Fu Yuheng's feet, shouting, "Chenqie, please be merciful, Your Majesty!"

"What are you waiting for!" "Take him away!" Fu Yuheng parted his lips coldly and took a step back. He took his dragon boots out of Liu Chugrong's embrace and quickly retreated away from him. He did not conceal the disgust in his heart at all.

After the guard heard the order, he sped up his actions and picked up Liu Chu Rong, who was still sitting on the ground, and prepared to take her away. Just as the guard was about to leave Fu Yuheng's side, her voice rang out once more, as if she had lost all her strength.

"Is the emperor really going to treat chenqie like this?" Liu Chugrong's eyes stared at him. Her body couldn't help but tremble. Everything was settled, but she still didn't want to give up.

An indescribable sense of oppression had come about just like this. The last shred of desire in her eyes had also disappeared, and Shen Qingwan, who was standing at the side, had a calm expression as she watched Fu Yuheng being brought out of the west wing.

Fu Huaiyu who was carried up by the guards did not say a word, the look of regret on his face was hard to conceal, but most of it was the unwillingness that was hidden in his heart. He had sensed that something was wrong, but he hadn't expected that he would be tricked in the end. He had never thought that he would capsize in the sewer today.

In the end, he had still underestimated this woman. He couldn't blame others and could only hate himself for missing out on everything.

Seeing that the two of them had been brought out of the west wing, Shen Qing Wan slowly walked to the emperor's side and handed over a cup of good dragon well tea that she had instructed Lian Yun to brew, "Your majesty, drink a cup of tea, calm the fire, don't be too angry."

She had witnessed his reaction. If it was an act, she would not have been able to catch any traces of it.

Fu Yuheng's eyes narrowed. He accepted the teacup, wiped the tea from his face, and took a sip. He was not in the mood to drink tea.

On the other side, Prime Minister Liu was rummaging through some ancient records in his study at home. Suddenly, a person entered the study in a flash. He turned his head to look, only to realize that it was one of his trusted aides from the Imperial Palace.

"Is the news true?" Prime Minister Liu looked anxious, and couldn't help but ask again.

"Absolutely." His trusted aide lowered his voice, his expression somber. As soon as he received the news, he hurriedly rushed out of the palace to tell him.

After hearing the words of his trusted aide, Prime Minister Liu's heart trembled. This time, he was in big trouble.

He never thought that his daughter would cause such a huge ruckus in the palace. Right now, she was still imprisoned in the prison by Fu Yuheng, but she was doted on by her family since she was young. He really couldn't bear to see her suffer in prison.

However, what made him even more panicked was that the matter between Liu Chugrong and Fu Huaiyu had been exposed. If he did not handle this matter well, it would be a big blow to the Liu Family. Not to mention, what crime was there to add to it? What was there to be afraid of? He might have been found out.

The situation was critical and there was no time to delay. Prime Minister Liu hastily changed his clothes and ordered the servants to prepare a carriage.

Fu Yuheng was flipping through the imperial reports in the hall. At this time, Sun Ning came over and reported that the Prime Minister Liu was asking for an audience.

"Nope." Fu Yuheng's voice was cold as he lightly pulled on his lips. He knew that the Prime Minister Liu would definitely come here to act after hearing the news, however, he did not expect it to happen so quickly. If they get entangled, we'll drag them away. "

"Yes, your servant will return the favor." Sun Ning bowed, then took a few steps back and left the hall.

Prime Minister Liu felt as if his heart was thrown into an ice cellar after hearing what Sun Ning had to say.

"This old official wishes to seek an audience with the Emperor!" While kneeling on the stone platform in the great hall, he continued to shout loudly towards the great hall, hoping that Fu Yuheng would be able to hear him.

Fu Yuheng narrowed his sharp eyes and retracted his gaze from the imperial report. He turned a deaf ear to the incessant shouts from outside the hall. He was very clear on what this old fox was thinking in his heart.

"Your majesty, all these years since Liu Fei entered the palace, her sincerity towards you is clear. She must have been wronged this time. Please be enlightened your majesty!" His head hit the ground, a bright rainbow appearing between his brows.

"Didn't the Prime Minister Liu say that the Emperor did not differentiate between black and white?" Sun Ning was still standing at the entrance of the Point Hall, looking at the Prime Minister Liu with a look of helplessness, as he replied faintly.

Hearing that, Prime Minister Liu's heart became even colder, he paused for a moment, then started to kowtow again, while shouting, "Your majesty! This old official has yet to speak, but I beg you, for the sake of past relations, let Liu Fei out of prison first, so that he does not have to suffer from the prison! "

"Prime Minister Liu should return. Since the Emperor has ordered it, he will definitely not meet you today, and as people pass through the main hall, no small number of them have noticed Prime Minister Liu's attitude. Prime Minister should return to the palace to await news." Sun Ning tried to persuade him kindly, but the Prime Minister Liu was still willing and still struggled to enter the great hall.

Seeing that, Sun Ning gave a signal to the guards on both sides, and they immediately pulled Prime Minister Liu who was paralyzed on the ground away.

After Shen Qingwan sent the emperor off, she stayed in her own palace, recalling everything that happened. She knew that Fu Yuheng must be making use of this opportunity to get rid of the Liu Family and Fu Huaiyu, and all that she had done before was to help him.

"Esteemed wangfei, let's eat a piece of pastry. What happened just now has troubled the Empress quite a bit. This is a personally made ice skin osmanthus cake made by this servant. It would be great if it could be matched with this West Lake Longjing Tea." Lian Yun held onto a jade coloured osmanthus cake, and then placed the newly brewed tea onto the table.

"You were the one who thought it through." Shen Qingwan took a sip of the tea and her voice became warmer. It didn't sound like the scream that Liu Xiugrong had made when he was still here.

The reason why she had Wen Ling poison Fu Huaiyu before was so that he wouldn't be able to clear his head, which was why she was able to walk step by step into her trap today. And today in the west wing, it was due to her ordering someone to mix with the drugs that had the antidote to the medicine that had caused him to faint all of a sudden.

"This servant truly admires the Empress for her divine foresight. Even if the Ninth Prince were to take the bait obediently." Lian Yun said happily as she poured tea for Shen Qingwan from the side.

Shen Qing Wan's thin lips curved upwards, feeling that Lian Yun was naive, how could he have expected such a thing like a god? He had to think about it, pay close attention to the details, and then, slowly pull out the cocoon, only then would he be able to finish the big plan.
