"If Your Highness Prince Rong does not want to rebel, why do you want to trap us here?"

Yu Yao was worried that Chen Xiyun might get angry, so she quickly reached out and patted her back to help her calm down, but her eyes were on Prince Rong.

Seeing Prince Rong's expression was a little subtle, Yu Yao was full of doubts, but her tone was calm.

"You should know that this is the General's Mansion. We are all from the General's Mansion. You are just a guest. Now that the owner of the General's Mansion is not here, you, a guest, think you are the owner and bully us at will."

"If His Majesty heard about this, I'm afraid it would not only make him suspicious, but also make him extremely suspicious of the reputation you have been known for for many years as a sickly person."

"In other words, this matter has no benefit to you at all. Why do you want to do this? Could it be that His Majesty did something that caused you to misunderstand?"

Yu Yao knew that Chen Changli was busy with the opium matter. She had previously thought that Chen Changli was just trying to get rid of harm for the people and nothing would happen at all.

Prince Rong's current behavior made her hesitate. Combined with what Prince Rong said before, she suspected that Afurong had a relationship with Prince Rong.

Therefore, Chen Changli was bewitched by Prince Rong's men, and now he is probably trapped in Prince Rong's mansion and his life or death is unknown.

"You are a woman with real courage." Prince Rong looked at Yu Yao carefully, and confirmed that she was really a weak woman and not a disguised secret guard. He immediately praised her very halfheartedly.

His attitude was very contemptuous, as if he didn't take Yu Yao seriously at all.

Yu Yao noticed that he was not angry at all, so she just smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness Prince Rong. Unfortunately, as long as there is no fool in Luoyang City, they can guess what I can guess, and they can also think deeply about why you did this."

"How shameless." Zhao Yan understood Prince Rong. He knew clearly that Prince Rong's words were not to praise Yu Yao, but were clearly mocking her for being a mere concubine and treating her like a dish.

"Zhao Yan, this young lady doesn't seem to understand my good intentions. Please explain it to her."

Prince Rong originally didn't want to pay attention to Yu Yao, but when he heard Zhao Yan's words and thought of his own identity, he suddenly felt that Yu Yao didn't take him seriously.

He felt unhappy and immediately asked Zhao Yan to teach Yu Yao a lesson.

Zhao Yan understood what he meant and immediately walked towards Yu Yao, wanting to repeat his old trick and knock her to the ground.

Chen Xiyun noticed her intention and immediately protected Yu Yao behind him.

"This is the general's residence, don't be so presumptuous!"

Chen Xiyun's voice was unusually cold, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Yan was as freezing as ice and snow.

Zhao Yan smiled and said to her, "Miss Chen, for the sake of your father, the prince and I both admire you. That's why we don't want you to be wronged, so we will deal with Chen Mingyue who was disrespectful to you."

"We, the master and the servant, have good intentions for you! Now this woman interrupted you without your permission, which shows that she doesn't take you seriously. The prince and I are worried that you will be bullied by her, so we want to help you. How can you not appreciate it?"

With just a few words, he pushed the blame of his evil onto Chen Xiyun and tried to convince Chen Xiyun to acknowledge his evil.

Chen Xiyun was about to explode with anger at his words: "It is true that Yu Yao is my eldest brother's concubine, but she is respectful to my eldest sister-in-law and filial to my parents, so our family has long accepted her as a member of our Chen family."

"You, an outsider, bully her in front of me, which is a disgrace to my general's mansion. As the daughter of the general's mansion, if I don't protect her, it will seem that my general's mansion is something that anyone can step on."

She said the last sentence with great anger, staring at King Rong with eyes like flaming fire, as if she wished to burn him to ashes.

Prince Rong met her gaze, his expression unchanged, but a flash of hostility flashed across his eyes, "Chen Xiyun, don't refuse a toast and drink a forfeit."

"Your Highness Prince Rong, are you angry because you want someone to teach me a lesson? Or did our parents threaten you so much that you want to humiliate us in this way to vent your hatred?"

Seeing Chen Xiyun's actions of protecting her, Yu Yao was moved.

She quickly stepped forward and blocked Chen Xiyun behind her, and spoke precisely about Prince Rong's weakness.

"Prince Rong, what happened to my parents?" Upon hearing Yu Yao's words, Chen Xiyun's anger was suppressed.

She began to wonder why Prince Rong had turned against her. He was clearly pretending to be sick before, so why did he suddenly become so hostile to the people in the General's Mansion?

Is it possible that Chen Changli and his wife are in a very bad situation? Or does Prince Rong have other plans and stop pretending?

"Your parents are fine, but I have something I need you to do. If you do well, I will let you meet your parents. If you don't do well, you will never see your parents again in your life."

After glancing at Yu Yao coldly and keeping her in mind, Prince Rong looked at Chen Xiyun and spoke in a threatening tone.

After he finished speaking, he smiled at Chen Xiyun.

His smile was very faint, and paired with his pale face, he looked inexplicably cold.

Chen Xiyun only felt a chill coming from her body, making her shiver all over.

She couldn't help but touch her arm, trying to wipe away the goose bumps caused by the cold.

"What do you want me to do?" Chen Xiyun tried his best to suppress the urge to get goosebumps. He looked at Prince Rong coldly, but in his heart he began to think about the meaning of his words.

Her father Chen Changli was a first-rank general, and Prince Rong was a super-rank prince. If he suddenly turned against them, the general's mansion would be like an empty shell without Chen Changli, and would be occupied by him.

But precisely because Prince Rong was a prince, he could never let the emperor know what he had done, otherwise he would be accused of rebellion.

Even if Prince Rong is prepared for rebellion, he will be caught off guard by the emperor, and both sides may end up suffering losses.

Since Prince Rong is determined to rebel, he will never let himself end up like this, so he will never fall out with the General's Mansion in a short period of time.

Now they sent people to stop him and kill Chen Mingyue with great momentum. Chen Xiyun just felt that the situation outside was not good and it threatened Prince Rong. In order to protect himself, he had to find ways to drag the General's Mansion into the water.

When this inexplicable thought came to her mind, Chen Xiyun became a little worried that Prince Rong would ask her to do something that would harm her parents, and she felt very repulsed.

However, she didn't know what happened in the outside world. Prince Rong had turned against her again. In order to find out the situation, she could only deal with Prince Rong.

Chen Xiyun's mind raced like lightning and he made up his mind.

As long as Prince Rong's actions were not excessive, she was willing to cooperate and then find an opportunity to resolve the current dilemma.

If it was too excessive and detrimental to the General's Mansion, she would rather suffer humiliation than harm her family.

Prince Rong spoke at this time, his tone was quite tough: "What I want you to do is very simple, that is to kill this woman with your own hands."
