Before Zhao Xu could answer, Wang Xiaohui rushed over with some people, but in the blink of an eye, Zhao Xu was surrounded by people.

He had never experienced anything like this before, and was a little surprised for a moment.

He subconsciously wanted to retreat, but found that he couldn't because there were women all around him.

They looked at him expectantly, hoping to hear good news from his mouth.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Xu immediately stabilized his body and said with a faint smile: "Don't panic, everyone. I came to the General's Mansion just under my instructions. Whatever you want to know, I can answer it for you."

After that, he paused for a moment and spoke again: "But we have to go in now. We can't stay at the door of the General's Mansion, otherwise we will cause some criticism."

Wang Xiaohui and others all understood what the criticism he meant. They looked at each other and quickly took him into the lobby.

Zhao Xu entered the lobby and felt a little safer.

He did not waste time and simply told what happened last night, and then mentioned that Chen Changli and his wife were imprisoned by the Supreme Emperor.

"I went to the prison specifically to see the couple. They are fine. Besides, the escape of the two princes from Luoyang City is very important. Even if the Supreme Emperor has dealt with the matter of Prince Duan and others, he cannot focus on these two princes. body."

"After all, Chen Changli is a capable general, and Wan Shufang is also good at medicine. When the Emperor is busy for this period of time, he will definitely realize how ridiculous what happened last night is. In order to prevent the two princes from causing trouble outside, he must They will be released, and then your family can be reunited."

Zhao Xu did not personally experience the chaos in the palace. What he knew was obtained from others, but most of it was said by the Supreme Emperor himself. Zhao Xu did not believe it, but he also felt that the Supreme Emperor's words were more suitable to appease Chen Xiyun and others.

He evaded the important points and said some things lightly, and specifically pointed out a hope, and told Chen Xiyun and others to stay at home.

As soon as Chen Xiyun heard that Chen Changli and his wife were imprisoned, she felt an uncontrollable anger in her heart.

Although what Zhao Xu said later made sense, Chen Xiyun didn't take it to heart.

During this period of time, she had clearly seen the coldness and ruthlessness of the royal family. Such a big thing happened yesterday, and two of the most beloved princes of the Supreme Emperor died. She did not think that the Supreme Emperor was really as magnanimous as Zhao Xu said. .

She thought that the Supreme Emperor was deliberately showing his generosity, and then got rid of some people who disobeyed him without anyone paying attention.

Chen Changli and his wife will be imprisoned. It is obvious that they are resented by the Supreme Emperor.

If she, as a daughter, couldn't find a way to save them, wouldn't she let them suffer in vain in prison?

"Master Zhao, what do you think we should do to rescue our parents?" Wang Xiaohui didn't know what Chen Xiyun was thinking, but she felt the same way and was worried about the situation of Chen Changli and his wife in prison.

She wanted to save them, and immediately placed her hope on Zhao Xu.

"Second sister-in-law, what are you talking about?" Chen Xiyun didn't expect Wang Xiaohui to ask so bluntly. Although Zhao Xu came to the General's Mansion after being entrusted by Chen Changli and his wife, who could guarantee him in the current situation? Really trustworthy.

Wang Xiaohui said what she was thinking, which was completely giving her control into the hands of others.

Chen Xiyun was about to explode with anger, but she had to suppress the anger.

She couldn't get angry at Wang Xiaohui, lest she arouse Zhao Xu's suspicion.

She quickly spoke to make up for Wang Xiaohui: "Mr. Zhao, my second sister-in-law didn't mean that. She had no idea what she said. In addition, what you said was too shocking. She was frightened and spoke quickly. If so, don’t take it seriously.”

After Wu Qiaoyue listened to Chen Xiyun's words, she suddenly understood why she spoke for Wang Xiaohui like this.

Worried that Zhao Xu really had a misunderstanding, she became anxious: "My second sibling has been spoiled by my second brother for a long time. She is very self-righteous when my parents are not around. Mr. Zhao, please don't argue with her."

Seeing that neither of them got to the point, and the more anxious they appeared, the more it showed that there was something wrong with Wang Xiaohui's words, Yu Yao, who had always been taciturn, couldn't help but get anxious.

Deep down in her heart, she knew that it was useless to be anxious. She immediately took a few deep breaths to suppress the uneasy feeling in her heart. Then she pulled Wu Qiaoyue's sleeve and told her to stop defending Wang Xiaohui, and then stood up and looked at her intently. Look at Zhao Xu.

Seeing that there was nothing strange on his face, and the look in his eyes looking at these women showed kindness, Yu Yao believed that this man was trustworthy.

What he said to them was indeed what Chen Changli and his wife might have ordered, and there was no intention of lying or testing.

Pursing her lips, Yu Yao said boldly: "Sir, I believe you have a good relationship with our parents. That's why you went to visit them in the prison and got their instructions."

"But regarding what happened last night, I hope you can tell us everything, and also express some of your thoughts. After all, we all know what kind of person the Emperor is, and there is no need to beat around the bush."

Her words were very straightforward, completely making her distrust of the Supreme Emperor obvious.

Zhao Xu looked at her in shock. He had never thought that a weak woman would be dissatisfied with the Supreme Emperor, and even had little respect for the Supreme Emperor because of this dissatisfaction.

Yu Yao found that as soon as she finished speaking, the man in front of her looked at her with a different look.

She was a little frightened and couldn't help but hide behind Wu Qiaoyue.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xiyun immediately stood in front of Wu Qiaoyue and looked at Zhao Xu with vigilance: "Master Zhao, please respect yourself."

"Miss Chen, don't get me wrong. I was just shocked by what this lady said." Seeing everyone's expressions suddenly change, Zhao Xu knew that they had misunderstood the look in his eyes just now, so he quickly explained.

"What she said is normal." Chen Xiyun said subconsciously.

Zhao Xu smiled bitterly: "The imperial power is supreme, so when the emperor was angry, he killed millions of people. Even if I have your majesty's trust, I am still afraid of this, but this lady is not afraid and even complains about your majesty."

He also imitated Yu Yao and said what was in his heart very straightforwardly, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Xiyun, wanting to see her reaction.

If it were Chen Xiyun before, she would have been in awe of the Supreme Emperor and would not dare to slander or blame him at all.

But now Chen Xiyun doesn't have a good impression of the Emperor, and is even worried that the Emperor will go crazy and harm their family.

Because of this thought in his mind, Chen Xiyun felt a little resentful of the Supreme Emperor.

But facing Zhao Xu who was looking over, Chen Xiyun felt that she shouldn't expose this resentment. However, the image of the Supreme Emperor in her heart was too bad, and she really couldn't imagine him in a positive light.

After a few breaths, Chen Xiyun did not hold back her emotions and directly exposed her true thoughts to Zhao Xu.

She felt that this was not good, but she could only break the rules: "An emperor who even plots against his own children, is he really worthy of our allegiance?"
