Chapter Two Hundred and One: Lifting the Foot Ban
After Jiang Huai'ai went out, Bei Liangye sat alone in front of the desk for a long time, thinking carefully about what happened before. Some time had passed, and the suffocation in Bei Liangye's heart had long since calmed down.
As Bei Liangye calmed down, the previously complicated and confusing case now seemed a little different, with every aspect revealing strangeness.
Could it be that there are really signs of something different happening behind his back and that he wrongly blamed Ruan Wanwan?
Thinking of Ruan Wanwan who was implicated in his thunderous anger that day and then confined in his palace, Bei Liangye unexpectedly found that he was stabbed in the heart.
"Tang Yu." Bei Liangye whispered.
Tang Yu came in quickly with a long sword in his hand, bowed his hands and said, "Your Highness, do you have something to give me?"
Bei Liangye was stunned for a moment. He just thought that he had wrongly blamed Ruan Wanwan, so he subconsciously called Tang Yu in.
"We will send extra manpower to investigate the previous matter, and we will not let go of any doubts." Bei Liangye decided to make some mistakes about the previous matter. He did not want Ruan Wanwan to bear the infamy.
Tang Yu thought for a long time before he remembered what His Highness was talking about, and then he handed over his hand: "I will make arrangements now. I will resign."
"Wait a minute." Bei Liangye stopped Tang Yu and frowned: "How is the Crown Princess doing in the palace these days?"
Tang Yu raised his eyebrows. When did the Crown Prince pay so much attention to the Crown Princess? But it was true that although the Crown Prince didn't show it to the Crown Princess in an obvious way, he could clearly see her.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats the Crown Princess differently.
Tang Yu thought about the report from the secret guards around the Crown Princess and said: "The Crown Princess is fine in the palace, and she is doing her own thing without causing any trouble."
Bei Liangye nodded, his deep eyes were unpredictable. For a moment, he was a little dissatisfied with what Ruan Wanwan had done, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He didn't understand his own contradiction. He wanted her to make trouble with him, but he also wanted her to understand him: "Please pass on the order. The Crown Princess has been performing well recently. The grounding has been lifted and she can move around freely."
"Yes." After all, he was Bei Liangye's most proud subordinate. Tang Yu seemed to have expected it and was not too surprised.
"Go out." Bei Liangye waved his hand and pinched the corners of his eyes tiredly.
After Tang Yu went out, he went directly to Ruan Wanwan's palace and brought Bei Liangye's words there: "Princess, Your Highness has ordered that your confinement can be lifted in advance due to your recent performance."
Ruan Wanwan sat on the beautiful bed, looking at a book in his hand without raising his head: "I understand, please step back."
Ruan Wanwan didn't feel too happy. The joy she once had was replaced by the indifference now. She had been wronged before, but the price was too high. She didn't want to be disappointed anymore.
"Yes." Tang Yu glanced at the light-colored figure, looking lonely but a bit repellent from thousands of miles away.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess obviously have each other in their hearts, right?
After Cuizhu sent Tang Yu back, a smile couldn't help but appear on her face: "Miss, Your Highness has released your ban! Your Highness still treats you differently!"
Ruan Wanwan closed the book: "Cui Zhu, you are thinking too much."
Ruan Wanwan stood up and walked to the window. The bright moon dyed the dense sycamore trees with a bright color, clearing away some of the gloom in his heart. Cuizhu looked at his young lady and felt that something was different.
The news that Beiliangye had lifted the ban on Ruan Wanwan spread instantly in the East Palace, and spread throughout the government and the public as if it had wings.
Almost every official is thinking about the Crown Princess who has endured His Highness the Crown Prince's thunderous wrath. Now that the confinement will be lifted in a few days, this Crown Princess's status in His Highness's heart...
How important is it?
Regarding Ruan Wanwan's grievance, General Chen's mansion took Ruan Wanwan away without saying a word, and did not tell Beiliangye.
"Cousin..." Lin Chen felt heartbroken when he saw the emaciated Ruan Wanwan. During this period of time, she would always sit alone in the pavilion reading or watering flowers in a daze. She was no longer as pleasant as before.
Lin Chen went to court early every day to accompany Ruan Wanwan and tease Mengzi. In the past few days, Ruan Wanwan had more smiles on her face.
After Bei Liangye finished his official duties during this period, he freed up his mind. After the ban was lifted, shouldn't Ruan Wanwan come over to express his gratitude?
"Ahem, Tang Yu." Beiliang Ye lingered on the sweet and sour pork ribs with her chopsticks, which was her favorite: "Why hasn't the Crown Princess come out recently?"
Tang Yu handed over his hand: "General Chen came to pick him up..."
Bei Liangye: "Why didn't I know?"
"That's right, you went out at that time, and General Chen's carriage came directly." Tang Yu explained bravely, this was a clear and obvious display of power!
Bei Liangye choked. General Chen has always had a fiery and direct temper, and his current attitude clearly did not conceal his dissatisfaction with him.
Tang Yu carefully observed his Highness's expression, and after finding that he was not angry, he boldly asked: "Your Highness, do you want the Crown Princess to come back?"
"No more." Bei Liangye looked at the sweet and sour pork ribs in front of him that suddenly lost their flavor: "Take away the sweet and sour pork ribs."
Tang Yu obeyed the instructions honestly, tsk, get some food to relieve his anger?
Every move of His Highness the Crown Prince will always be magnified infinitely. The Emperor was naturally aware of General Chen's threats to Bei Liangye. However, Emperor Zhengwu did not stop him after he found out.
Recently, Bei Liangye didn't have time to think about Ruan Wanwan, because not long after Ruan Wanwan left the East Palace, the emperor frequently summoned him to the palace to meet the emperor, and every time he came back, he would bring a lot of tasks to deal with.
Beiliang Ye has been getting busier and busier lately, often leaving early and returning late every day without stopping. Tang Yu, who works non-stop every day, is a bit overwhelmed.
"Your Highness, has something happened these days?" Tang Yu asked.
Bei Liangye's eyes were slightly green, but he was still in good spirits: "There is indeed something wrong."
The day after Ruan Wanwan left the East Palace, Emperor Zhengwu reported that Bei Liangye had entered the palace. Ever since Ruan Wanwan returned to her parents' home, the government and the public had begun to experience turmoil.
"There has been a lot of turmoil in the court recently. These old people don't use their brains when it comes to political affairs. Instead, they pursue the mess!" The emperor told Bei Liangye about the recent events in the court.
Bei Liangye restrained his sharpness: "My son and I have heard a little bit about it. I wonder if my father has any doubts in his heart?"
Emperor Zhengwu knew the strength of his son, so he was just hiding his clumsiness. He had no intention of saying more: "Everything seems to be driven by someone behind the scenes. I suspect that someone is behind this matter."
Bei Liangye's mind suddenly moved. His idea coincided with Emperor Zhengwu's, so he had been secretly investigating this matter during this period.
It's just that there has been no result, which almost disappointed him.
Bei Liangye held up his hand and said, "Father is actually suspicious. Have you ever sent someone to investigate secretly?"
