"Qiao Qi, where is he?" Mu Yingbao stood up and asked the person who came into the kitchen.

Although Qiao Qi's expression told her that it was not a bad thing, she still wanted to hear with her own ears that he was safe.

"Madam, the master and his men have also returned. They have captured a man and are now imprisoned in the dungeon of the Dali Temple. The master said that they should strike while the iron is hot and interrogate him. So, the master ordered me to come and wish Madam safety first. Also, I guess he won't be back for lunch, and the emperor and his men won't be back either." Qiao Qi said.

"Caught him? That's great." Dongzhu and the others on the side were also very excited when they heard it.

If we don't catch him, the master will become sick from depression in the long run.

"Then, your master is not injured, right?" Mu Yingbao was still a little worried.

Since the opponent is so powerful, and Xue Wenyu and his men just returned now, it is possible that they have fought before.

Qiao Qi hesitated for a moment, and Mu Yingbao's heart immediately became tense; "Are you injured? Where is the injury?"

Qiao Qi knew that he couldn't hide the truth from his wife, so he had to disobey his master's instructions and tell the truth honestly. Xue Wenyu was indeed injured, and several other brothers were also injured.

"Madam, it seems that the other party showed mercy. The master and our people were not seriously injured," Qiao Qi told honestly.

He

He was also present at the time and saw it clearly. If the other party had not been pushed into a corner, the master and his men would not have been injured.

"Shitou, hurry up and light the fire. Dongzhu, have someone prepare the car and the food boxes. Yadan, go and prepare my medicine box." Mu Yingbao gave orders, then rolled up his sleeves and started cooking.

Soon, all the prepared ingredients were fried.

Dongzhu and the others helped put the food into the food boxes and prepared the bowls and chopsticks. Mu Yingbao asked them to bring wine, salt and other food.

She took off her apron, got on the carriage waiting at the door, and led Yadan and the others out of the palace to the Dali Temple.

Lin Chuan and his friends were worried and called a few secret guards.

Madam wants to go to the Dali Temple, but now that the master has captured the person, the other party will definitely find a way to rescue him.

In this case, we have to be on guard, and they will wait for an opportunity to kidnap the lady and exchange her with the master.

Of course, you must also guard against retaliation from the other side.

Lin Chuan handled things very prudently, taking the lady's safety into consideration while not forgetting to arrange for the rest of the people to guard the Yangxin Palace.

Who can be sure of the other party's purpose in repeatedly risking entering the palace and coming here? Is he a person? An animal, or something else?

The Dali Temple was not far from the palace gate and we arrived there quickly.

The guards outside the Dali Temple knew Lin Chuan and his companions, and they also knew this carriage.

Sure enough, as soon as the carriage stopped, Lady Yipin got out.

The people around her were all busy, some were carrying food boxes, some were holding wine jars, and some were carrying medicine boxes.

The relationship between Lady Yipin and Duke Xue is really deep! Everyone thinks so.

No one stopped us from reporting anything, and some people even took the initiative to lead the way.

When they arrived at the dungeon entrance, Mu Yingbao saw that those guarding outside were all Xue Wenyu's men, and Qi Dawu was bandaging them.

"Madam is here, the master is inside." When Qi Dawu saw the medicine box on Yadan's back, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he quickly said to Mu Yingbao.

No wonder the master was so determined not to let him bandage the wound. It turned out that the master wanted to leave it to the First-rank Lady to bandage it!

All injuries were minor.

A dungeon is a prison cell built underground, usually used to hold serious criminals.

Some dungeons are half above ground and half underground, with windows for ventilation and light.

Some dungeons are real dungeons. Without lights or torches, it is pitch black. In addition, prisoners have died in the dungeons, so it is already eerie underground. When people walk in, they will feel cold and uncomfortable, and their hair will stand on end.

Qiao Qi wanted to persuade Mu Yingbao to stay in the room outside the dungeon where the jailer stayed, so he went downstairs to call his master up.

Madam is a woman after all, it is not good for her to enter such a gloomy place!

However, seeing how eager the lady was to see the master, he didn't dare to open his mouth and it was a waste of words to persuade her.

The dungeon is not just a cell. After going down, you will pass by a row of cells. The smell inside is unpleasant. Looking at the prisoners in the cells, they are huddled in the haystack in the corner, not moving at all.

Some of them held onto the fence with their hands and looked out with their eyes narrowed.

Dongzhu Yadan felt very uncomfortable being stared at, so she gritted her teeth and walked forward, looking straight ahead without looking at them.

The jailers all stood aside today and watched Madam Yipin and her entourage walk in.

At the very end of the dungeon, Qiao Qi stepped aside, and the people inside immediately saw Mu Yingbao.

"Madam, why are you here? Come up quickly and I'll come up right away." When Xue Wenyu saw his wife, he was so anxious that he didn't let her in.

Mu Yingbao saw him with her own eyes. He had two wounds on his body, one on his calf and one on his arm.

"Why can't I come? Come quickly and let me see how injured you are. You will be healed soon and won't delay your interrogation of the prisoner." After Mu Yingbao said this, he searched Xue Wenyu to the side of the torch, and Yadan hurriedly followed.

Qiao Qi moved the table used for interrogating prisoners to the side of his wife and master.

Xue Wenyu saw his wife's attitude and knew he couldn't refuse, so he had to let her check.

"Xia, judging from the wound, there is no poison on the weapon." Mu Yingbao checked and was relieved.

Open the medicine box on the table and gently wipe his wound with an alcohol cotton ball.

The wound wasn't really deep, just the kind that broke the skin and bled.

There was no need for stitches. She just applied some white medicine she made herself and then bandaged it with cloth strips. The patient died soon.

"You haven't had time to have lunch yet, eat quickly. You'll have more energy for the interrogation after you're full." After taking care of Xue Wenyu's injuries, Mu Yingbao asked the people who came with him to take out the food in the lunch boxes and put them on the table.

Xue Wenyu finally did not return empty-handed today. Even though he was slightly injured, he was in a very good mood.

Invite his subordinates to have lunch together. Even if he doesn't invite them, his wife will.

Just look at the dishes and chopsticks she prepared and you will know that this is not just the food and wine prepared for him alone.

In fact, Hua Liang and the others had already set their eyes on the food boxes as soon as the lady came in. Since so many were brought in, there must be some for everyone.

So, as soon as they heard the master speak, everyone immediately came forward, picked up chopsticks, and started eating.

"The food Madam cooks is delicious." Some people couldn't help but sigh after taking a bite.

I don't care who says he's flattering his wife. Anyway, I can eat the food made by my wife herself, so what if people say he's a flatterer!

Besides, the food that Madam cooks is truly unmatched!

In the gloomy dungeon, even the smell of blood and mold did not affect everyone's appetite.

However, no one relaxed their vigilance, eating and drinking.

, drink some wine and go

Mu Yingbao put his hands behind his back and walked to the person hanging on the innermost wall. He looked left and right. "Are you the ones who have been causing trouble in the palace recently?"

When asked, the man did not look angry, but had the same expression and tone as Mu Yingbao; "Are you the first-rank lady, Mu Yingbao?...
