Chapter 653: The Proud Daughter of Heaven Who Was Trapped and Killed (6)
"Brother Prince, I didn't!" Yun Qingfu quickly clarified.
"In that case, let's go talk to our father!" Prince Yun Feng flicked his sleeves and left first.
At this moment, Emperor Yun also learned about the disappearance of the treasures in the national treasury and was furious.
When he learned that his imperial decree had changed from granting marriage to the daughter of the Zuo family to the boy of the Rong family, he was shocked, "How is that possible? I personally reviewed that imperial decree!"
Then, the guard at the palace gate reported, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Hou has returned from announcing the decree, and he wants to see Your Majesty for something!"
"Well, call him in!" Emperor Yun just happened to have something to ask him.
He wanted to see how the imperial edict that he had personally read turned out to be a marriage between the Ninth Princess and the boy from the Rong family!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Eunuch Hou stumbled in, still holding the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand.
He held the imperial edict in both hands, knelt on the ground and said sadly, "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this imperial edict!"
It turned out that after Eunuch Hou read it out in the Zuo Mansion, he felt more and more that something was wrong.
It was not until he saw Rong Jinghong and saw how disheveled he was that he suddenly realized.
How could the Ninth Princess Yun Qingfu, who was placed all her hopes on by the Emperor Yun, marry this poor boy?
And Rong Jinghong was probably overwhelmed by the imperial decree granting marriage, and could not hide her deep thoughts which she usually kept hidden.
Having seen countless people in the palace, how could he not see the calculation and gloominess hidden in the other person's eyes.
So, when Eunuch Hou saw Emperor Yun, he rushed before him and told him about the strangeness of the imperial edict.
"Oh? Is there really a problem with the imperial edict? Hand it over to me so I can take a look!" Emperor Yun said in a cold voice.
Then the chief eunuch at the side took the imperial edict and unfolded it in front of Emperor Yun.
He immediately frowned, "How is it possible? How could this happen?"
Then he found the extremely small and obscure number in the lower right corner of the imperial edict, and he was sure that this was the one he issued today.
This is because each imperial edict is given a unique number and is filed in order to prevent forgery.
However, in order to save face, he still raised his head and said, "How dare they forge an imperial edict behind my back! Come, arrest them!"
In an instant, Eunuch Hou and Rong Jinghong were captured by the guards who rushed in.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent! Innocent... well..." Then, his mouth was covered by someone and he was pulled down.
Rong Jinghong, who was standing by, was also startled by this sudden change. Just as he was about to speak, his mouth was covered and he was pulled down.
Su Li, who was hiding nearby, curled his lips.
She had already calculated everything that was happening before her.
How could Emperor Yun agree to it if he used a trick to deceive the emperor?
With a wave of her hand, the eunuch who was leaving the hall broke free from the guards and disappeared in front of them in a few seconds.
Only Rong Jinghong was left being held down and taken into the Sky Prison.
"Father, what should we do with this imperial edict? My marriage and Fu'er's admission token are also lost..." Prince Yunfeng asked in a low voice.
"Let's put your marriage on hold for now. I'll settle Fu'er's marriage first. Also, the treasury was stolen. I want to find out who did it..."
Emperor Yun waved his hand, "All of you go down! If the token of recommendation is lost, it is lost. Your qualifications are not as high as Fu'er's, so just be at ease and be the crown prince!"
"Father, what about Zuo Zhiqiu?"
Yun Qingfu stamped her feet and asked, "If I don't deal with her, how can I become a direct disciple of the Tianxuan Sect?"
"Don't worry, father will take care of this matter!" Emperor Yun waved his hands in pain.
In the sky prison, Rong Jinghong, with a look of grief and anger on his face, tightly grasped the iron bars with his left hand, with veins bulging on the back of his fist.
He stretched out his right hand through the bars and shouted to the jailer outside, "I want to see the Ninth Princess! I want to see the Ninth Princess! I have something important to tell her!"
The two jailers discussed it, and one of them nodded and said, "Wait!"
An hour later, Yun Qingfu came slowly.
She looked at Rong Jinghong with an unhappy expression, "What do you want from me? Tell me!"
"Your Highness, I have no intention of coveting you. Please let me go." The moment he saw Yun Qingfu, Rong Jinghong pleaded hurriedly.
"Is this what you wanted to tell me?"
The Ninth Princess Yun Qingfu said disdainfully, "I asked you to do something, and you messed it up. You still want to get out? Just die here forever!"
After saying that, she was about to turn around and leave.
"Your Highness, wait! Zuo Zhiqiu has already promised me that she will not go to the Tianxuan Sect's area to participate in the selection. Your Highness, she will go to the Yueshuang Sect as you wish!" Rong Jinghong said hurriedly.
"Really?" Yun Qingfu was skeptical.
"It's true! Everything I said is true! Your Highness, please let me out!" Rong Jinghong pleaded again.
"Okay, I got it! On the day of the selection, I will have someone let you out!" Yun Qingfu waved her hand and left without looking back.
"No, Your Highness! No!" Rong Jinghong looked at the tender yellow figure in despair as it slowly disappeared in front of him.
Su Li, who was hiding nearby, curled her lips. It seemed that Yun Qingfu was not as fond of Rong Jinghong as before.
That’s right, with Rong Jinghong’s current qualifications, he indeed cannot attract the princess of the dynasty.
They were together afterwards, probably because of the relationship they developed after they entered the Tianxuan Sect, right?
Thinking of this, she pointed a finger at the jailer.
The two jailers stiffened for a moment, then returned to normal.
They looked at each other and shouted at Rong Jinghong in unison, "What are you arguing about!"
Then, the two men opened the cell door and carried him out.
"You, what are you going to do?" Rong Jinghong looked at the strange expressions on the two people's faces with horror.
"Boy, do you think it's so easy to get into this prison?"
"Whenever a newcomer comes to our prison, we always give him a welcome gift!"
"No, the Ninth Princess has already agreed to let me go! If you dare to do anything wrong, she will never let you go!" Rong Jinghong instantly understood what the two wanted to do and threatened them.
"Boy! There are still three months until the sect election. Don't worry, we have a plan!"
"Hehe, that's right!"
The two men took him to the torture room and tied him to a wooden stake.
"No, no!" Rong Jinghong let out a heart-wrenching cry as he watched the two men approaching him with torture instruments.
Soon, his screams were heard from the torture chamber.
The two jailers have been guarding this prison for a long time, so they naturally know the severity of their actions.
The torture instruments they used were the kind that would not leave any scars on the surface but would cause excruciating pain in the bones.
Su Li ordered the two jailers to torture him severely once a day!
Therefore, for the next two months, Rong Jinghong will live in dire straits.
Death is too easy.
Su Li wanted to torture him and then watch with his own eyes the end of his support, his Ninth Princess and the Mingyue Dynasty!
After leaving the Heavenly Prison, Su Li returned to the bedroom where Emperor Yun was.
At this moment, Emperor Yun was pacing back and forth with a depressed look on his face, "Damn it, who on earth stole my treasury!"
Just as he turned around, he found a figure in red in front of him.
