"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

Yuan Buwei stepped forward and knelt before the emperor. "King Canglang has guarded the border and protected the people of Li Ming for many years. Even if he has no merit, he has worked hard. Princess Jinghe is a role model for women all over the world. If you send them to the Dali Temple, it will definitely cause protests from officials and people."

"Who are you to teach me a lesson?" The emperor was furious and kicked Yuan Buwei on the shoulder.

"Uh……"

Yuan Buwei groaned and fell to the ground, protecting her stomach tightly. However, the pain in her shoulder still made a layer of cold sweat seep out of her forehead.

“Your Majesty, this is a matter between us, why do you have to harm innocent people?” When the Wolf King saw Yuan Buwei being kicked to the ground, he glared at the emperor in anger, “I am responsible for my own actions, please…”

"Nangong Aocang, what qualifications do you have to bargain with me?"

The emperor had lost his mind at this time. With a wave of his hand, he sent all four of them to the Dali Temple.

When Ye Shaoqing saw the four people, he almost stupefied.

Fortunately, he was smart. After arresting the four people, he immediately asked his subordinates to inform Lu Sui.

"Buwei, are you okay?"

Princess Jinghe was very worried when she saw that Yuan Buwei had been feeling uncomfortable since she left the palace. "Are you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach? I saw you holding your stomach the whole time."

"I'm fine, it's just that kick that made me a little dazed." Yuan Buwei forced a smile towards Jing and the princess, "Princess, are you okay?"

Princess Jinghe knew what Yuan Buwei was asking, so she stroked her belly and shook her head, "I'm fine."

Turning his head, he looked at the Canglang Princess standing at the door: "I just don't know, my second sister-in-law..."

Yuan Buwei gritted her teeth and stood up, stepping towards Canglang Princess. Seeing her eyes flushed, she kept muttering, "It's all my fault."

"Princess, please don't blame yourself. You are very brave to stand up and confess everything. The emperor and the Wolf King have been feuding for a long time. Even if he can't wait for the opportunity today, he will find a suitable opportunity next time."

"I just didn't expect the situation to develop to this point." Princess Canglang held Shangyuan Buwei's hand. "Buwei, do you think the prince will be okay?"

"Will not."

Princess Jinghe stepped forward and said, "Things are different now. Second brother holds military power. Even if he is away from the capital for a long time, the civil and military officials will remember his contributions. Moreover, half of the court officials are my people. They will help persuade the emperor."

"But I still implicated you."

"Second sister-in-law, don't blame yourself. This palace and my brother have had a long-standing grudge. Last time he failed to kill me, he was already upset and couldn't sleep or eat. Now that he has such a good opportunity, he is going to torture me to death." Princess Jinghe sneered, "If he wasn't our mother's biological son, how could he be the crown prince? Not to mention my second brother, even other deceased princes have more potential to be the crown prince than him."

"King Canglang, don't worry, someone will come to rescue us." Yuan Buwei also comforted Princess Canglang.

After listening to what the two said, Princess Canglang's emotions gradually calmed down.

What the four didn't know was that less than half a day after they were imprisoned in the Dali Temple, the capital city had already been plunged into chaos.

Wanning Marquis Mansion.

"I'm going to save Avi."

"Lu Sui, sit down."

Wan Ning Hou glared at his son and said, "The emperor is just trying to scare the tiger. He is worried that he can't catch the followers of the Wolf King. Besides, your identity as his son must not be exposed."

"But what does the conflict between them have to do with A Wei?" Lu Sui was furious. "If I had known she would be arrested, I shouldn't have agreed to let her accompany Princess Canglang to see the Queen Mother last night."

"I guess the emperor must have known something, but he had no evidence, so he imprisoned Bu Wei as well." Wan Ninghou's face was unusually serious. "Lu Sui, the more this kind of thing happens, the more you should not be impatient. Once you are impatient, not only will you fail to save Bu Wei, but you will also implicate more innocent people."

Lu Sui clenched his fists, unable to vent the worry and anger in his heart.

Finally, he could only punch the wall.

"I'm going to find Ye Shaoqing."

The pain in his hand calmed Lu Sui down: "He is one of us, and A Wei is imprisoned in the Dali Temple. Even if I can't see her, at least send her some warm clothes."

"Let someone else do it. It will attract too much attention if you go there in person."

Lu Sui pursed his lips and finally nodded: "I understand."

Since the day when the four men of the Wolf King were imprisoned in the Dali Temple, the atmosphere in the court has been low every day.

After a morning court session, the emperor would get angry at least five times.

As a result, those civil and military officials who wanted to plead for the four Wolf Kings were trembling with fear and dared not speak a word.

The conditions in the Dali Temple prison were very poor, and despite everyone's repeated caution, Princess Canglang still caught a cold.

Princess Jinghe was pregnant, and Yuan Buwei was afraid that she would be infected, so she asked Ye Shaoqing to arrange a separate cell for her.

He stayed behind to take care of Princess Canglang.

Princess Canglang was in a daze and had a fever for two days, and finally woke up on the third day.

"Princess, you finally woke up."

Yuan Buwei hadn't dared to close her eyes for two days, but she forgot that she was in the early stages of pregnancy. Not to mention catching a cold, even the slightest movement could cause her to get into trouble.

But she had no choice but to go ahead.

"I……"

Princess Canglang slowly sat up, her eyes confused: "What am I doing?"

"You have caught a cold and have had a high fever for two days." Yuan Buwei handed her a glass of water, "Drink some water first."

"How is the prince? Is he alright?"

"The prince is very good. Ye Shaoqing is one of us. He knows his limits and will not let the prince get hurt."

"Buwei, I'm sorry. I didn't expect to get you into trouble." Princess Canglang held Yuan Buwei's hand, looked at her haggard face, and blamed herself. "Why are your hands so cold?"

"The cell is simple. Even though Ye Shaoqing sent someone to deliver a quilt to keep us warm, without charcoal fire, we can only... cough cough cough..." Yuan Buwei turned her head and coughed twice.

"Buwei, then you should take a rest. I feel I'm ready now." Princess Canglang got up in a hurry, but she got up too fast and felt dizzy. If Yuan Buwei hadn't supported her, she would have almost fallen to the ground.

"I'm really useless."

Princess Canglang lay in Yuan Buwei's arms and suddenly burst into tears: "I thought if I told the truth, things would go back to their original track, but in the end..."

"I don't blame you. You made the best decision at the time."

"But we may die at any time now. If my life can be exchanged for the lives of the three of you, then..." Princess Canglang couldn't continue. She hugged Yuan Buwei and cried bitterly.

Such behavior directly led to Yuan Buwei developing a high fever that night.
