Chapter 228: Escape from the Heavenly Prison
Zhu Ye and Zhu Qing saw that Ning Shangmo no longer drove them away, so the two of them held her arm tightly one by one, preventing her from going too fast.
Ning Shangmo couldn't help laughing: "Are you escorting prisoners, or what?" I'm so tightly detained, how can I walk? Can you afford to delay things? ”
Zhu Ye Zhuqing gave a little bit of it, but he still held her arm.
Ning Shangmo no longer entangled with them, his steps still didn't stop, and he continued to move forward.
After walking about a cup of tea, Zhuye found that he was on the wrong path, not to the palace, nor to the yamen, but to an unfamiliar road.
She asked puzzledly, "Miss, where are we going?" ”
Ning Shangmo didn't answer, just walked forward.
Zhu Ye didn't dare to ask again, and protected Ning Shangmo more carefully with Zhu Qing.
The three of them turned over a wall, and a tall door appeared in front of them.
Zhu Ye subconsciously looked up and saw the word "Heavenly Prison" in Shangshu.
She couldn't help but pause, and also dragged Ning Shangmo by the way, and asked puzzledly, "Miss, what are we doing in the prison?" ”
"Since you are coming, don't speak, just follow me."
Ning Shangmo said in a deep voice, shook his arm, shook off the hand of the bamboo leaf, and walked to the steps.
Zhuye Zhuqing hurriedly followed.
When the guards guarding the prison saw someone coming, they didn't know that it was the eldest princess of Da Ling, Mrs. Mingxiang, and shouted, "Who are you? Dare to break into the prison at night, don't you want to die? ”
Hearing this, Zhuye immediately stepped forward and shouted louder: "Are you blind dogs? Don't you see who this master is? She is the wife of the prime minister, and the eldest princess of Shangmo is also. ”
When the guards heard this, they hurriedly saluted and sang in unison: "Meet Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”
Ning Shangmo waved his hand and said in a loud voice: "No courtesy." Let me ask you, who is on duty in prison today? ”
The chief of the guard bowed and replied, "It's General Song on duty." ”
"Okay, you go in immediately and tell me to see General Song." Ning Shangmo commanded.
The chief of the guard said yes, turned around and walked into the prison, and after a while he came out again, followed by a general in armor.
"Eldest princess Shangmo, the lower official didn't know you were coming, please come in." General Song stepped forward and saluted, making a gesture of invitation.
Ning Shangmo nodded slightly and followed him into the prison.
Everyone came to the duty room of the rotating adults, and General Song gave Ning Shangmo to the upper seat, and then bowed down and asked, "Eldest princess Shangmo, may I ask, why did you come to the official office today?" ”
Ning Shangmo asked out loud: "After the emperor granted amnesty to the world, how many prisoners were still imprisoned in this prison?" ”
General Song replied: "Except for the heinous death row prisoners, the other prisoners have been released. ”
When Ning Shangmo heard this, he immediately asked, "Is the princess of Beimeng still in prison?" ”
General Song nodded in response: "She is not among the pardons, she is still in prison, but the eldest princess of Shangmo wants to find her?" I'm going to have her brought in. ”
Ning Shangmo nodded and responded, "Okay, bring her here immediately to show me." ”
General Song raised his voice and ordered: "Come on, go to the water prison and bring me the female prisoner from Northern Mongolia." ”
The prison officer agreed and went to do it immediately.
After about a cup of tea, the messenger who went to mention Tuoba Yanling ran back in a panic, knelt on the ground and said, "Oh no, general, the female prisoner of Northern Mongolia in the water prison has been replaced." ”
"What?" Ning Shangmo couldn't help but scream when he heard this, and then asked anxiously, "The slave girl from Beimeng ran away?" ”
The prison officer replied, "Yes, there is a stand-in in the water prison. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the door, just as several other servants walked in with a woman. The body shape and appearance are somewhat similar to Ning Shangmo.
Seeing this, General Song couldn't help but shout angrily: "A group of fools, you didn't even find out that the prisoners were transferred? So you don't even know when you run? ”
Several messengers immediately knelt down and kowtowed in fright: "The little ones didn't find anything wrong, and they never knew when they were replaced, but the Northern Mongolian demon girl was really powerful." ”
General Song was about to get angry, and when he was on duty in the prison, such an omission was really a loss of face.
But he didn't want Ning Shangmo to say out loud: "Forget it, now is not the time to pursue, it's better to quickly find out how the female prisoner of Beimeng escaped." General Song, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
As she spoke, she stood up, "I'll go to the palace and return to the emperor." ”
When General Song heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and immediately stopped her, begging: "Eldest princess, please say a few more kind words in front of the emperor, if it weren't for the general's life." ”
Ning Shangmo nodded and responded: "Don't worry, if this matter has nothing to do with you, it will naturally not be punished on your head." The most important thing is to find out, how did the prisoners be transferred by God without realizing that the water prison in the heavenly prison was impregnable? I'm afraid there is a mole. ”
"Eldest princess Shangmo, the lower officials will definitely find out about this matter." General Song swore an oath.
Ning Shangmo nodded at him, pointed at the stand-in female prisoner and said, "You can interrogate her well, I'm afraid that if you can't interrogate anything, you can find out a little clue." ”
When General Song heard this, he immediately bowed down and agreed: "Okay, the lower officials will definitely do it." ”
Ning Shangmo said a few more words, and then left in a hurry with Zhu Ye and Zhu Qing.
Then, she came to the gate of the palace again, and the eunuch guarding the door saw that it was the eldest princess and hurriedly asked: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, it's getting late today, I'm afraid that the emperor and the queen mother of the inner palace have already rested." Do you want to come back early tomorrow morning? ”
There are rules in the palace, and when the time comes, the palace door must be closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.
Ning Shangmo is the eldest princess, and the eunuchs didn't dare to stop her, for fear that she would be in a hurry, so they asked.
Ning Shangmo shook his head and said, "I have something important to tell the emperor, you go in and report it, if not, it will delay the big thing." ”
When the eunuch heard this, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately bowed down and replied: "The slave will go in and pass the ceremony, and I will bother Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to wait for a while." ”
Ning Shangmo nodded, and the eunuch went in to pass the word.
After a while, the eunuch who went in to pass the ceremony came back to tell her that she would go directly to the imperial study.
In the imperial study, the emperor sat at the desk yawning and asked in a loud voice, "Mo'er, what happened?" This time I will enter the palace, and I am sleeping well. ”
Ning Shangmo asked with a smile, "Didn't you sleep in my sister's palace tonight?" ”
The emperor replied: "No, if it weren't for her, how could she not follow." Come on, it's late, what's the matter with looking for me? ”
Ning Shangmo abducted the small stone by someone, and Tuoba Yanling was unknowingly replaced out of the water prison in the heavenly prison, and roughly told the emperor about it.
When Yan Nanhao heard this, he couldn't help but slap the table and be angry: "In the heavenly prison of my Daling Imperial City, that Tuoba Yanling didn't know that the cell head had been replaced by others?" If you hadn't gone to the cell to check on it today, wouldn't you have known? When the time comes, she is committing crimes outside, and we don't even know who it is. It just doesn't make sense. ”
Speaking of this, he stopped again, pondered for a moment, and looked at Ning Shangmo: "It can't be that she grabbed the little stone, right?" ”
Ning Shangmo nodded, "I think so too." Xiaoshi's family did not have a grudge against anyone, and besides, when the national disaster was at hand, it is expected that no one would kidnap Xiaoshi at this time to ask for ransom. Then it can only be me who has been involved with the little stone, and after Tuoba Yanling escaped from the prison, he wanted to use the small stone against me. ”
Yan Nanhao couldn't help but ask worriedly: "So, what should I do?" ”
Ning Shangmo replied: "The emperor can rest assured about the little stone, I will rescue her safely." However, this palace, Tuoba Yanling came out, I am afraid that it will not be safe, you must tell the Royal Forest Army to take strict precautions, and don't let her come in and make trouble. My sister is about to give birth, and the Queen Mother is old, so she can't stand the toss and can't make any mistakes. ”
Yan Nanhao responded: "Okay, I will protect their safety, but Mo'er, you are pregnant now, you have to be careful in everything." No, I'll send you a few good helpers. ”
Ning Shangmo hurriedly waved his hand and replied, "No, the people in my hands are enough." Please also ask the emperor not to tell my sister about this, so that she can wait for delivery with peace of mind. ”
Yan Nanhao looked at her and nodded: "Mo'er, don't be reckless in everything, remember to put your body and fetus first, and don't live up to your words." ”
Ning Shangmo responded: "I will." ”
Coming out of the palace, Ning Shangmo returned to Ning Mansion and summoned everyone to inform Tuoba Yanling of his escape from the Heavenly Prison. And told everyone to be very careful, don't be deceived by her.
Everyone was very angry when they heard this, but they couldn't think of a good way to arrest her again.
Ning Shangmo asked everyone to go back to rest, and Ming'er went to find the little stone again in the morning. She felt that if the small stone was in Tuoba Yanling's hands, she was afraid that it would be safe for the time being, so everyone could just sleep well.
The next morning, when the Ning Mansion watchman opened the door, he found a letter stuffed through the crack in the door.
They didn't dare to open it to see, so they sent it to Dongyuan and handed it to Ning Shangmo.
Ning Shangmo was freshening up, and Zhu Qing came in with the letter to show her.
After reading the letter, Ning Shangmo couldn't help sneering: "Okay, the provocation is coming, I want to see what she is capable of." ”
Zhu Ye hurriedly asked, "Miss, what's the matter?" ”
"Tuoba Yanling sent a letter saying that the little stone was ...... in her hand" Speaking of this, Ning Shangmo stopped his mouth and said with a smile: "Now that there is a letter, the little stone must be fine." Hurry up and freshen up for me, I'll have something to do after breakfast. ”
Zhu Ye couldn't help but ask worriedly when he heard this: "Miss, isn't it very dangerous for the little stone to be in Tuoba Yanling's hands?" ”
"What's at stake? If she wants to leave me safely, she must send the little stone back safely. Ning Shangmo smiled very confidently, "You go and tell Liu, so that she doesn't have to worry, Xiaoshi has a whereabouts, and she will definitely be able to come back safely before noon today." ”
When Zhu Ye heard her say this, he was naturally happy, and hurriedly went to inform Liu.
Ning Shangmo had breakfast, so he prepared to go out of the house alone.
Zhu Qing couldn't help but ask, "Miss, where are you going?" Yamen? ”
"Naturally, I want to go to the yamen to have a look, you can just be born at home." Ning Shangmo put on his overcoat and commanded loudly.
