Chapter 1117 Into the Heavenly Prison

Bai Ruozhu lowered her head and did not dare to say any more. Looking at the Queen Mother's attitude, she knew the seriousness of the matter. In fact, she had doubted this, but she did not dare to say it directly like Ning Yu.

"The Queen Mother and Princess are tired, Ruozhu retreated first." Bai Ruozhu thought for a while and said.

The Queen Mother glanced at Bai Ruozhu and said, "Okay, you are a smart person and know what to say and what not to say."

Bai Ruozhu's heart skipped a beat. It involved the late emperor and would even affect the reputation of the royal family. How could she talk nonsense?

"Yes." Bai Ruozhu didn't say much, but stated his attitude firmly.

The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go back."

Bai Ruozhu bowed and left. As soon as he reached the palace gate, a high-pitched eunuch shouted from outside: "The emperor has arrived!"

Bai Ruozhu had no choice but to stop and step aside to salute.

The emperor walked quickly and glanced at Bai Ruozhu from the corner of his eyes when he entered the hall.

"Mother, what happened? Why are the disciples of the imperial master imprisoned?" The emperor said in a blink of an eye after he had arrived in front of the queen mother and saluted.

The Queen Mother's eyes were a little wandering, and she said to Bai Ruozhu: "You have also bowed to the Emperor, so go back first."

Bai Ruozhu breathed a sigh of relief, saluted and hurriedly left Cining Palace. She walked all the way towards the palace gate, but before she reached the palace gate, a group of guards suddenly rushed over.

"Ms. Bai, the emperor ordered me to arrest you and send you to the sky prison to await trial. No one is allowed to visit you!" the captain of the imperial guard said with a cold face.

If it was in the past, Bai Ruozhu would have had to argue with him, thinking that it was Concubine Liu who was responsible, but today she didn't say anything and followed the captain of the imperial guard to the prison honestly.

This is the second time she has been to the Imperial Guard Prison. The first time was to visit Jiang Yichun, but this time she is in jail herself. Things are really unpredictable.

If the person who heard Ning Yu's words here today was Jiang Yichun, the emperor might only give her a few words, or even threaten her. But if it were her, the emperor would probably imprison her uneasily, so he really let her go. Guessed.

The captain of the guard escorted her deeper into the dungeon. She was always very cooperative, not unhappy at all, and didn't even ask any questions. On the contrary, the captain of the guard found it very strange.

"Mrs. Jiang, what are you..." Ning Yu's surprised voice suddenly came from one side. He jumped up from the ground, rushed to the door of the cage, grabbed the railing and looked at Bai Ruozhu.

Bai Ruozhu smiled and shook her head at him, expressing her helplessness.

A look of shame flashed in Ning Yu's eyes, "It's me who has caused trouble for you."

Bai Ruozhu shook her head at him again and made a silent mouth gesture: "Don't say more."

Ning Yu was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, Bai Ruozhu had already walked over and was placed in a deeper cage. Looking carefully, the two of them were isolated from the others, obviously because they were afraid that they would say nonsense to others. talk.

"Mrs. Jiang, please come in. If you need anything, you can ask the guards. The Queen Mother has told you to take more care of you," the captain of the guard said.

"Thank you, sir. There's nothing else. I just want to ask for your help to send a message to the Queen Mother. Please ask her to send someone to deliver a message to my home, saying that I have something to stay in the palace and will go back in a few days." Bai Ruozhu was polite. saluted him.

The captain of the Imperial Guard nodded, "I will pass the message on to you. As for the Queen Mother's arrangements, I can't guarantee you."

"I understand, thank you, sir." Bai Ruozhu said and bowed again.

The captain of the guard turned away and quickly walked out of the prison.

Bai Ruozhu looked at the simple cell, walked to the bed and blew the dust off the bed, spread the handkerchief on it, and sat on the handkerchief.

What a disaster. She really shouldn't have agreed to do that.

…

In the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother looked at the Emperor with a sad face, "Your Majesty, the Ai family still feels something is wrong. Please let Ruozhu go. That child knows the rules and won't talk nonsense."

Princess Jade Man next to her had already burst into tears, "Yes, Brother Emperor, this is all caused by me. If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have been in a hurry to cure any illness."

The emperor snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and said, "Okay, she won't be missing a piece of flesh after two days in prison. Is a foreign woman worth being so nervous about?" As he spoke, the emperor's face turned cold, "If it weren't for her, If you do that kind of formation, Ning Yu will stop talking nonsense. I suspect that they have colluded long ago. Let’s find out more about this matter.”

"How is it possible? Ruozhu didn't know what was going on when he was called into the palace today. He even brought a medical kit thinking he was checking Le Bin's pulse. How could he discuss anything with Ning Yu?" The Queen Mother said and pointed to the medicine on the floor of the main hall. The box was brought by Bai Ruozhu. Bai Ruozhu was in a hurry to leave before and even forgot to take it away.

"Okay, I have my own sense of discretion. If I find out, I will naturally let her go home. I will definitely listen to my mother for other matters, but this time it involves..." The emperor did not say any more.

Both the Queen Mother and Princess Yuhuan knew the emperor's temper, so they had no choice but to keep their mouths shut. Not long after the Emperor left, the captain of the Imperial Guard came and conveyed Bai Ruozhu's words. After hearing this, the Queen Mother immediately said: "Yes, Ziyi, go and pass a message. You Know what to say and what not to say.”

Ziyi didn't know what was going on in the palace, but she knew that she must be kept quiet, so she hurriedly responded. Half an hour later, Ziyi had already gone to Bai's house to tell Bai Ruozhu that the Queen Mother had left Bai Ruozhu to accompany her for a few days. Lin Ping'er didn't think much about it, but Xiao Dengdeng heard that his mother was not coming back, so she still Had some temper tantrums.

…

It was hard to tell whether it was day or night in the dungeon, but Bai Ruozhu had a pocket watch to tell the time. She took it out and looked at the time, and felt that the prison was getting darker.

She hoped that her second brother didn't know that she was locked up, and the emperor wouldn't let anyone publicize this, otherwise she was really afraid that her second brother would be worried.

She carefully stuffed the pocket watch into her collar, thinking that if no one was watching at night, she could go into the space and take a bath in the hot springs. The prison was damp and smelly, and she didn't know if it was because of her heart. What did she feel? It's all itchy.

She was thinking about whether to lie down when footsteps came from the corridor. The sound was very soft, and she sounded like someone who knew martial arts.

Soon a figure appeared outside the cell door. The man was also wearing the same clothes as the captain of the guard squad today, and was smiling at Bai Ruozhu with a proud look on his face.

Bai Ruozhu's eyes twitched. Wasn't this the captain of the imperial guard who helped Liu Guifei plot against her last time? She had told the Queen Mother before, but because of Le Concubine's matter, the Queen Mother was unable to do anything. It seemed that Wu Zhishang was not punished for any crime in the end. She said that he had also received false letters, and in the end he was only fined a few months' salary.

"Bai Ruozhu, we meet again." Wu Zhishang smiled sinisterly.

"My husband's surname is Jiang. Captain Wu, please be careful when he speaks." Bai Ruozhu said unceremoniously.

Wu Zhishang laughed under his breath, "After tonight, let's see if your husband is still willing to have you!"
