He wanted Hua Nongying to marry him as a concubine after leaving the palace.
With no other choice, Hua Nongying reluctantly agreed.
All imperial palaces are the same, magnificent and grand. The Imperial Palace of Great Wisdom has a rather elegant atmosphere. Lush bamboo groves grow everywhere, adding a unique charm!
Today is the birthday of the emperor Qing Feiyang's most favored consort, Wan Guifei, and a banquet is being held in the Imperial Garden.
By the time Hua Nongying and Zhou Yan arrived, the Imperial Garden was already filled with officials and various consorts.
Seeing the strange looks from other officials, Hua Nongying felt like she was being pricked by needles because most of them were regulars at the Red Silk Pavilion and recognized her! Meeting in such a situation was indeed quite awkward!
"Zhou Daren is truly blessed!" an official stepped forward, grinning as he patted Zhou Yan on the back, his eyes lecherously fixed on Hua Nongying.
"Where? Where?" Zhou Yan replied with a hint of pride.
"The emperor has arrived!"
As a group was exchanging pleasantries, a sharp voice called out from afar.
Everyone hurriedly knelt down, shouting, "Long live the emperor! Long live Wan Guifei!"
However, Hua Nongying did not kneel; she just stared intently at the handsome young man. Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and rushed towards Qing Feiyang. Everyone present was stunned, especially Zhou Yan, who was left dumbfounded.
The Imperial Forest Army beside Qing Feiyang immediately blocked her path. "Bold!"
"Your Majesty, please save Wen Chancellor!" Hua Nongying looked at Qing Feiyang, her face filled with urgency.
Hearing this, Qing Feiyang raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
The woman in front of him looked somewhat familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but why couldn't he remember who she was?
"I... I am the owner of the Red Silk Pavilion!" Hua Nongying quickly replied.
"How dare you, a woman from the pleasure district, sneak into the Imperial Palace! Someone, chase her out!" Wan Guifei suddenly shouted through gritted teeth. She was furious to see a beautiful woman suddenly appear, especially since the Emperor seemed to regard her with unusual interest.
As someone who was used to being pampered in the Harem, she certainly wouldn't allow any obstacles to appear on her smooth path!
"Oh? So you are Hua Nongying!" Qing Feiyang said with a sudden smile at the corners of his lips. "Come with me to the Qingxin Hall and tell me everything about Wen Shaojun!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Nongying's face immediately broke into a joyful smile.
The ministers present were all astonished as they watched the Emperor take Hua Nongying away, while Wan Guifei, the original focus of attention, could only glare at their retreating figures with a hint of malice in her eyes.
In the hall, Hua Nongying knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face as she said, "Your Majesty, only you can save Wen Chancellor now!"
"What exactly is going on? Speak!" Qing Feiyang's voice remained calm as ever, but there was a hint of curiosity in his gaze directed at the woman before him.
Thus, Hua Nongying recounted Wen Shaojun's experiences in Dayue in detail, including how he had been schemed against by Tian Fei Nuo and so on.
After listening, Qing Feiyang frowned slightly and spoke coolly, "Do you not know that last time was my final help for him?"
"What do you mean?" Hua Nongying was stunned beyond measure.
"I am very disappointed in Wen Shaojun. Last time, he sacrificed five cities for a woman to Dayue, which severely weakened our Great Wisdom! I also stated then that he is no longer suitable for the position of Chancellor! Since you seem to know so much about him, it appears you must be quite familiar. Hasn't he mentioned any of this to you?"
Qing Feiyang's tone was so calm, yet to Hua Nongying's ears, it felt like a sharp blade piercing her heart.
Did that mean he would no longer care about her brother-in-law's life or death?
Thinking of this made Hua Nongying tremble. She stood up shakily and rushed to Qing Feiyang's feet, crying out, "Your Majesty, if you no longer care about my brother-in-law's life or death, then there is no one left in this world who can save him!"
She never expected that her brother-in-law would willingly give up his position as Prime Minister to save Lele.
It is important to know that Wen Shaojun was more valued than the Emperor in the eyes of the Wise Man.
Moreover, the wealth of the Wen Family was enough to rival that of a nation!
This posed a significant threat to Qing Feiyang.
However, he never anticipated that he would make such a choice!
A strange light flashed in Qing Feiyang's eyes. Wen Shaojun's hereditary position as Prime Minister made his family a longstanding threat to the royal family. Although he indeed had great talent, his existence was a threat to Qing Feiyang himself.
Furthermore, it now involved Da Yue San Wang Ye and Tian Fei Nuo, with whom he had made an agreement. If Wen Shaojun were to seize the throne in the future, Qing Feiyang would do everything in his power to assist him, and in return, he would receive greater benefits.
Thus, weighing the pros and cons, it was clear that he should not concern himself with Wen Shaojun any longer.
He had already exhausted his last bit of usefulness!
Thinking of this, his brows and eyes were filled with indifference. He ignored Hua Nongying's pleas and simply said, "This time, I cannot help him either!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Nongying looked up in shock, seeing the coldness in the man's eyes. She finally realized that she could no longer hope for Qing Feiyang's assistance!
With a cold laugh, she slowly replied, "Then I have disturbed Your Majesty today!"
After saying this, she stood up, gently brushed off the dust from her clothes, no longer bowing or scraping. Without casting another glance at Qing Feiyang, she turned and strode away!
Her back had never been so resolute; this time, she would no longer humbly plead with anyone. She would rely on her own strength to rescue her man and her family!
Watching her leave, Qing Feiyang sighed and also departed.
Heavenly Prison.
Every second spent here made Wen Shaojun and Luo Qingyun feel increasingly anxious.
"I don't care anymore, I want to leave this damned place!" Wen Shaojun shouted countless times, completely losing his usual rationality. His heart was entirely focused on Ma Lele, fearing that if he delayed any longer, something might happen to her!
"No, we can't escape from prison! If we do, Tian Fei Nuo will only take advantage of the situation. If we become too preoccupied with our own troubles, then Lele will have no one to help her. So we must choose wisely! Let's wait a bit longer; perhaps there is still a chance!" Luo Qingyun was much more rational now, calmly analyzing their situation.
It must be said that he had completely lost hope in Tian Feiyao.
Wen Shaojun took a deep breath and chose to heed Luo Qingyun's advice.
At this point, there was no other choice!
Two days later, things indeed took a turn for the better.
That day, they had just finished the dinner provided in the prison when suddenly, one by one, the guards in the cell collapsed. The two immediately became alert and observed their surroundings. At that moment, countless figures in black rushed in, swiftly opening the cell doors and then kneeling respectfully before Wen Shaojun. "Chancellor, we are late!"
The situation unfolded too quickly for Wen Shaojun to be surprised; he merely raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did you come from Great Wisdom?"
"Yes!"
"Who sent you?"
