Chapter 853: One steamed bun a day

Not long after, Prime Minister Wen showed up at Ouyang's house.

Seeing the arrival of Prime Minister Wen, Murong Haitang and others also hurriedly welcomed Prime Minister Wen in.

Prime Minister Wen also knew what everyone wanted to hear, so he did not show off after coming in and said bluntly: "This time, Your Highness may be in trouble. Emperor Wu didn't even have a chance to defend His Highness. I'm afraid he has murderous intentions.

"

Prime Minister Wen's words immediately made everyone's hearts sink.

Mo Qiaoer couldn't sit still anymore, "It's unreasonable. Brother Wu Yuan didn't even want to kill him at the beginning, but he actually dared to kill my brother Wu Yuan? I will fight with that emperor."

Prime Minister Wen was startled, "Little ancestor, please stop making trouble and listen to what I have to say."

Murong Haitang also hurriedly grabbed Mo Qiaoer, and then said to Prime Minister Wen very politely: "Master Wen, please tell me!"

Prime Minister Wen also said helplessly: "Emperor Wu is not interrogating or asking questions now. He indeed has murderous thoughts, but I guess there may be another possibility."

Murong Haitang and others immediately cheered up and looked at Prime Minister Wen nervously.

Prime Minister Wen uttered two words, "Test!"

"What kind of heuristic?" Yan Fei asked.

Wen Chengsheng immediately analyzed: "To test whether someone will jump out after Wu Yuan is thrown into the sky prison, this is somewhat similar to the tactics used to deal with Murong Qinghai. Maybe Emperor Wu also wants to use a trick to catch the turtle in the jar."

"You are the turtle!" Mo Qiaoer said angrily.

Prime Minister Wen was speechless, but he also knew that his metaphor was a bit inappropriate.

Nowadays, the most impulsive person is Mo Qiaoer, and there are several people present who may do something outrageous.

This is why Prime Minister Wen rushed here in a hurry as soon as he came to court.

But at this time, Murong Haitang also said: "Prime Minister Wen, please rest assured. His Highness Wu Yuan has already told us not to act rashly. We may have thought that Emperor Wu would use this to test us."

Hearing what Murong Haitang said, Prime Minister Wen was also a little impressed.

He only thought of it when he was in court, but he didn't expect that Wu Yuan had already foresighted it.

From this point of view, Prime Minister Wen was even more convinced that Wu Yuan would not do such a stupid thing, and it was absolutely impossible for him to assassinate Emperor Wu.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Wen couldn't help but ask: "Can you tell me, what is going on with Shen Xiangning? Isn't she from His Highness Wu Yuan?"

It is normal for Prime Minister Wen to have this question.

But they couldn't tell Prime Minister Wen the truth. They couldn't say that all this was done by a fourteen-year-old girl, right?

Although the truth cannot be told, Murong Haitang still said to Prime Minister Wen: "The order to assassinate was not His Highness Wu Yuan's idea. His Highness Wu Yuan did not even know about the assassination until he was arrested."

"As for the reason, please forgive me, Prime Minister Wen, and we cannot reveal it yet."

Now they also know that if Wu Yuan wants to defend himself, he must push Shen Xiangning out, and he may even push Huo'er out.

But is this possible? They know Wu Yuan and they will definitely not do this.

So how to do it depends on Wu Yuan himself.

Although Prime Minister Wen didn't get the real answer, he finally knew that the order to assassinate Emperor Wu had nothing to do with Wu Yuan.

Then there is the possibility of a comeback, and it will feel a lot easier for a while.

"In this case, I have returned. Now I am afraid that I will also be stared at. I cannot stay for a long time. Madams, please take care."

After several people sent Prime Minister Wen away, they also started talking.

Emperor Wu might have murderous intentions towards Wu Yuan, this news is too heavy.

Mo Qiaoer was so anxious that if everyone hadn't stopped him, he would have killed Xiang Tianlao long ago.

At this time, Xile couldn't help but said: "It's not the best way for us to just do nothing. We have to prepare for the worst."

This point was unanimously agreed upon.

Yan Fei suggested: "I think we should send the news to Boulder City quickly now. That is our biggest reliance. Otherwise, we alone will not be able to defeat Emperor Wu."

Murong Haitang frowned slightly and couldn't help objecting: "No, war has started in Boulder City now, and sister Ruyan is pregnant, so it is inconvenient to disturb her."

Ouyang Shishi also agreed with what Murong Haitang said.

But Xile felt that Yan Fei was right, "How long has it been? Do you have to wait until Xin Ruyan receives the news of Wu Yuan's death to feel better?"

Although Xile's words were a bit straightforward, they were not wrong.

Several people suddenly had differences and argued non-stop.

But in the end, no result was achieved, so we had to temporarily decide to stay put and wait to see the situation before making any plans.

A night of silence.

In the prison, Wu Yuan rested on Shen Xiangning's lap. Although the environment was a little worse, he slept well.

I just felt sorry for Shen Xiangning and didn't dare to move.

When it was dawn, Wu Yuan woke up and saw Shen Xiangning with a stiff expression.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Shen Xiangning blushed a little, "No... nothing, just... numb."

Wu Yuan felt a little embarrassed when he saw this, and hurriedly got up to help Shen Xiangning move.

After a while, Shen Xiangning calmed down.

At this time, Wu Yuan's stomach began to growl.

Then I remembered that I didn’t give them food last night.

Wu Yuan suddenly became furious. Even prisoners have human rights. What's more, he is still the emperor. Even if he is not now, he is still a prince.

"Someone is coming!"

Wu Yuan shouted.

The two jailers came over immediately. Facing Wu Yuan, they did not dare to make a mistake. They clasped their fists at Wu Yuan and said, "Your Highness!"

"Where's the meal? What time has it been and you haven't started the meal yet?"

Upon hearing this, the jailer looked embarrassed and said to Wu Yuan: "Your Highness, this is the Tianlao. There is only one steamed bun in the Tianlao every day. It's not time to eat yet."

"Only one steamed bun a day?" Wu Yuan became even more angry when he heard this.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this is the rule of the prison. Prisoners cannot be overfed." The jailer replied cautiously.

"What the hell, are you really treating me as a prisoner? Hurry up and prepare food and drinks. If not, I will chop off your heads." Wu Yuan scolded.

The two jailers immediately knelt down and said to Wu Yuan with a tearful look on their faces: "Your Highness, please don't embarrass us. If we prepare food and wine for you, neither of us can save our heads."

"If Your Highness is really hungry, I... we can give you two steamed buns a day at most."

Wu Yuan was very angry when he heard that, "Very good, I will remember you two."

The jailer was also heartbroken, but who told them to be so unlucky that such a thing happened?

"What are you still doing? Bring the steamed buns, but since they are steamed buns, you have to prepare them as I told you."
