If they take the princess away as soon as possible, they won't have to worry all day long, fearing that something will happen and the prince will blame them.
Seeing Xiao Xian coming, the soldiers in front of them all saluted, "See you, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Xian jumped off the horse and threw away the horse's reins. Immediately, soldiers came forward and took the horse away.
Xiao Xian immediately strode towards Dali Temple. He did not say hello to Fang Zheng and Yang Shaoqing, but went directly to the prison where the prisoners were held.
Soon Fang Zheng, the Minister of Dali Temple, got the news and immediately ordered people to follow him.
After Yang Shaoqing heard about it, he rushed over as quickly as possible to intercept Fang Zheng. He saluted and said with a smile: "Master Fang, why don't you go down to receive His Highness King Yan?"
Yang Shaoqing knew that Fang Zheng was an upright person, even a little pedantic. He had always been loyal but not flexible.
Fang Zheng would only execute the emperor's orders with all his heart, but he was not very flexible.
Now that Xiao Xian is here, it is obvious that he is going to visit Shen Mingzhu, and he may even take her away.
However, if the prince wants to take the princess away without the emperor's order, Mr. Fang will definitely not agree, and there will probably be a dispute.
Rather than letting them make a fuss, it would be better to stop Fang Zheng and prevent him from going.
Fang Zheng said: "The several times King Yan came to visit, I was not at the Yamen and did not receive him. I was rude several times and must not do it again this time."
As he said that, he was going to meet Xiao Xian.
Yang Shaoqing was very anxious, so he could only smile and said: "Then I will accompany you, sir."
After saying that, he ordered his attendants to set off and go directly to the prison.
The main prison of Dali Temple is in the northwest, and it is naturally very different from the small courtyard where Shen Mingzhu lived before.
Many of the prisoners in that prison were on death row, because all non-death row prisoners would be punished after the verdict was pronounced, either by exile or distribution or other conditions.
Only death row prisoners will live here until they are beheaded.
Therefore, the atmosphere in this prison was very depressing, and the sounds of ghosts crying and howling were often heard.
When Xiao Xian explored that area, he felt uncontrollably anxious and angry. The pearl he held in his palm was actually being violated like this.
Not to mention the fact that Mingzhu's case is full of doubts, even if it is confirmed that she killed someone and did something unforgivable, they should still look at it for his sake and wait until he comes back to deal with it.
Unexpectedly, the treatment of a doctor who was not punished as a doctor according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty would not benefit his future princess. He was a little intolerable for a while, and his breath began to become a little unstable. Thinking of the injustice that Mingzhu might have suffered, he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Although rationally he believed that the emperor would not order Shen Mingzhu to be tortured, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Especially when he thought of a bright-eyed person like her being locked up in a prison, it made his heart feel as painful as being ripped apart.
He must see her taken away, and he will never allow her to be in such an environment.
His aura is full, his face is stern, and his handsome face is like that of an immortal from another world. His majestic appearance makes people dare not look at him more and more.
The old jailers were all restrained by his momentum. No one dared to step forward to stop him, and they just watched him go all the way to the prison.
When Fei Yunhai and Mo Ruhui were imprisoned here, he also came here once. At that time, his aura was wrapped around an almost invisible anger.
