Chapter 630; To untie the bell, one must tie it
The twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
News that the entire Wu family was imprisoned spread back to the capital.
It has to be said that the Wu family's incident happened so quickly, and Emperor Hongwen handled it very quickly, and almost everyone in the Wu family in the capital was under control immediately.
At the same time, even the princess in Prince Ning's Mansion was also being closely watched, and there was no chance at all to pass on the news.
"Why is this happening? My lord, please help the Wu family."
It was originally a lively day approaching the New Year, but Prince Ning's Mansion seemed very deserted.
This kind of desolation is not the desolation of a sparse population, but a kind of lifeless desolation.
Prince Ning was sitting on the main seat, his bun was a little messy. Since the court meeting a few days ago, he had been in a state of despair almost the whole day.
The main thing is that I still can't figure it out, why did it suddenly become like this?
Mr. Zhou had planned the way forward for him, but it ended before it even started?
When he heard the princess's words, his empty eyes slowly focused.
But he soon became infected with endless hatred.
Yes, he hates it.
All along, both he and Mr. Zhou have repeatedly warned him not to provoke Lu Yaoyao. Even if he cannot be a good friend, he must not be an enemy.
At least he needs to keep a low profile until he succeeds in taking over.
As a result, the Wu family told him that he needed power and training, so he needed money. Although the Wu family was rich, they also had a large family, so they couldn't give them all to him.
That's why I came up with the idea of targeting Lu Yaoyao.
At the beginning, the head of the Wu family swore that his method was very good. Even if he could not directly bring down Lu Yaoyao, it could at least make her flaw in the eyes of Emperor Hongwen.
It only takes one step at a time to slowly wear it away. When the time comes, Lu Yaoyao can only rely on him, and those things and reputation of Lu Yaoyao will be used by him.
But what about the facts?
Not only did Lu Yaoyao not become a flaw in Emperor Hongwen's heart, but the Wu family was eliminated, and he and he were treated coldly.
He could almost imagine that it would be impossible for him to come out again in the future.
The seat that was already some distance away from him is now even more in the sky and on the ground.
All of this was caused by the family of the woman in front of me.
"I wish I could chop off all their heads to save them? Who will save me?"
Seeing him gnashing his teeth, Princess Ning turned pale.
He fell down in despair and let go of the hand holding the corner of Prince Ning's clothes.
Now she is very clear about Prince Ning's situation. In the past few days, she has also been confused. Why did it suddenly become like this?
Is the Wu family about to be destroyed like this?
If the Wu family is destroyed, where will she go from here?
What the Wu family did this time made Prince Ning so miserable. She was a married woman. Although she would not be implicated by her mother's family, it was impossible for her to have a status in Prince Ning's palace.
It can't be like this. It took a lot of effort for her to get to where she is today. She is still thinking about being able to be the mother of the world in the future. How could it end now?
She was unwilling to do so.
She was seen shaking her head crazily, and suddenly glanced at Mr. Zhou, who was standing quietly beside her, and her eyes lit up.
"Mr. Zhou, you are very capable, please think of a way."
Hearing this, Mr. Zhou was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "The matter has come to this, and there is nothing I can do about it."
He didn't know about Prince Ning's conspiracy with the Wu family in advance, and when he found out, he didn't know what to say.
I can only say in my heart that both the Wu family and Prince Ning underestimated Lu Yaoyao.
This is a person that even the powerful Duke of Zhen was not willing to mess with.
They were from a wealthy family, and a half-wasted prince didn't know where he had the confidence to provoke Lu Yaoyao.
Even if you don't know how powerful she is, haven't you discovered recently that she dares to attack Beichu alone?
Princess Ning's eyes that were bright just now dimmed instantly.
However, Prince Ning's eyes lit up again.
He suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Mr. Zhou.
"Sir, save me."
At this moment, he no longer calls himself the king.
In the current situation, he knew very well that the only person who might have a solution was Mr. Zhou.
Seeing him like this, Mr. Zhou fell silent again.
After a while, he stretched out his hand to help Prince Ning up and said with a wry smile, "Your Highness, unless I don't want to save you, this method is too difficult."
"Sir, please clarify."
"You still need someone to tie the bell to untie it. In this situation, I'm afraid only Princess Wanfu can help you."
He knows very well how high the reputation of Princess Wanfu in Dongzhou is. Although she doesn't seem to show it very much on weekdays, if you go among the people and ask around.
The common people may not know who Prince Ning is, but they all know Princess Wanfu, and even mention her with a very respectful tone.
After all, whether it's sweet potatoes, paper and printing, snowflake salt, etc. that Princess Wanfu produces, they are all first-class good things for the people of the world.
Moreover, she not only has a high reputation among ordinary people, but even if she is an official, she is also one of the best.
Although he is not a great Confucian, he is better than a great Confucian.
Not to mention, her fiancé is His Highness the Prince of Jin, who is now a big boss who controls hundreds of thousands of troops in the north and south.
It can be said that Lu Yaoyao has fully grown up now, and it is not as simple as the Wu family and Prince Ning saw.
They thought that the reason why Lu Yaoyao was so powerful was because Emperor Hongwen supported her, but they didn't know that even the current Emperor Hongwen would not dare to touch Lu Yaoyao even if he wanted to.
Once Lu Yaoyao is touched, I don't know how the people in the world will treat him. Shilin will probably scold him and make him doubt his life.
There is also King Jin. With his friendship for Lu Yaoyao, if she really encounters something in the capital, this guy might be able to summon troops from both places and march directly into the imperial city.
"she?"
Prince Ning smiled bitterly.
He became like this just because of the other person, and now he wants to beg the other person.
He doesn't hate Lu Yaoyao, there's nothing he can do about it, his level isn't enough, and hatred will only make him die faster.
"Is there no other way but this?"
Mr. Zhou shook his head.
Under the current situation, even Emperor Hongwen did not dare to let Prince Ning go easily. Compared with this time, they were targeting Lu Yaoyao. Emperor Hongwen needed to take care of Lu Yaoyao's mood.
If she is unwilling, but Emperor Hongwen just handles him lightly, it will definitely make Lu Yaoyao feel dissatisfied. How would he choose a deposed prince, a person with such great ability and energy, as an emperor?
"Your Highness, you don't need to worry too much. The emperor has not dealt with you until now, which means that he still has you in his heart. It's just because Princess Wanfu has no attitude, that's why he is like this."
What Mr. Zhou said is right. Emperor Hongwen really did not want to deal with Prince Ning.
