The smiles on Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu's faces were stiff, and they felt incredible at the same time.

When the eldest princess was young, she fought on the battlefield with the first emperor, and her status in the court was naturally transcendent, and Emperor Jinghong also attached great importance to the eldest princess every day.

But now, the eldest princess's mansion has ended up being a raid.

"Jingyu, you come in and talk back." Chu Junlan sat down next to Xiao Xu and raised his voice to call people in.

Jingyu obeyed the order and entered the house and saluted respectfully.

"The eldest princess's mansion was raided, what about the people in the mansion?"

"Back to the princess, it is said that the people in the eldest princess's mansion have been temporarily imprisoned. In normal times, everyone in the family would be sold after such a raid, but this time, the emperor did not mention this stubble at all, and only imprisoned everyone on death row in the Criminal Department, and the eldest princess was also imprisoned together. ”

Without waiting for Chu Junlan to ask carefully, Jing Yu had already detailed the news he had found out one by one, "There is no master in the eldest princess's mansion. When the emperor took Ye Gongzi to go, Ye Gongzi was in a coma, but it is said that after Ye Gongzi woke up, he also ignored the emperor's words, and was stunned all day, and refused to speak. ”

Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu glanced at each other and sighed at the same time.

Xiao Xu thought of Ye Zhao, and his face, which was not very healthy, turned a little pale. He can understand Ye Yichuan's feelings, don't say that Ye Yijian is his own son, he, who is an apprentice, now thinks of Ye Zhaolai, his heart is still like a thousand-pound boulder, depressed and breathless, not to mention Ye Yichuan? My biological father has done such a big game, and he hasn't taken himself to heart yet, no matter who it is, I'm afraid it will be difficult to accept it for a while.

Chu Junlan frowned and said: "I can understand his mood, but his approach is too irrational, can he save his father's life by acting like this?" Is he still planning to put the whole family in it? ”

"Once a person has drilled the tip of the horns, I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of so much." Xiao Xu sighed.

Chu Junlan asked Huzi to retreat, and then discussed with Xiao Xu in a low voice: "Xuxu, what do you think of the Ye family's affairs?" ”

In the past, Chu Junlan always liked to tease him, and when he called him Xuxu, his voice rose up, and the tail note was long, which made Xiao Xu's heart always pound. Now when she calls him, there is less banter, but more ordinary intimacy, which makes his heart warm when he listens to it.

Xiao Xu took Chu Junlan's hand to her lips and landed a kiss on her fingertips: "If what I say is not good, you are not allowed to be angry." ”

Chu Junlan laughed, and he could already guess Xiao Xu's thoughts: "I'm not angry. ”

"Although the division ...... Ye Zhuangyuan has been using me from beginning to end, but I am indeed able to have today because of him, this kindness is real, and I dare not forget it. Although I don't like Ye Yichuan, he is Ye Zhuangyuan's only bloodline after all, and I don't want them to be wiped out. ”

Chu Junlan deliberately pinched Xiao Xu's face: "It's rare for us to say bluntly who we don't like." ”

Xiao Xu couldn't erase it a little, but he still said bluntly: "Whoever made him miss you, he was angry when he saw him." ”

Xiao Xu's handsome face was flushed with jade, and he looked a little cute.

Chu Junlan giggled when he heard this: "You person, why don't you still want to let go of this matter?" ”

"He wants to rob you from me, and I can't let it go for the rest of my life." Xiao Xu hugged Chu Junlan tightly in his arms, even if the movement was too big, pulling the internal injury in his chest, and the injury on his forehead hurt when he lowered his head, he frowned, but he still refused to let go.

Chu Junlan rubbed it in his arms and sighed: "I understand what you mean, in fact, I don't want to see their family raided and exterminated." If you can, why don't we persuade Ye Gongzi, it can be regarded as your apprentice who has done your best for Ye Zhuangyuan, what do you say? ”

Xiao Xu nodded: "It's okay, it's just that if you want to visit the Imperial Prison, you have to alarm the emperor." ”

"That's okay, let's act above board, and we're not afraid to ask others to listen to it, the emperor knows what we talked about throughout the whole process, so naturally he won't be angry. Besides, what Ye Yiruo really explained would also help the emperor's affairs. Chu Junlan said with a smile.

Xiao Xu bowed his head and said, "Then I'll arrange it, and it's the same if I go back after the bright road." ”

"Crossing the road?"

"Yes, the emperor will know anyway, it's better to ask for the order before going." Xiao Xu said, so he called Jingyu to prepare pen and ink, wrote an excerpt and handed it to the palace.

Chu Junlan was originally a little apprehensive, and he didn't know if Emperor Jinghong would agree or be angry. But the emperor's order soon arrived, and he still arranged for Li Defang, the big eunuch next to him, to come.

"Lord Shizi, the emperor said that it is your loyalty that you have the heart to share the emperor's worries, and it is naturally good if you can interrogate something. The emperor also said that your body has not healed yet, you must take care of your body, and you will be able to raise it. ”

Xiao Xu smiled and nodded, and knelt in the direction of Miyagi to thank Longen.

Chu Junlan gave Li Defang a big red seal: "I'm tired of Father-in-law Li to take a trip, it's cold, invite Father-in-law Li to have a glass of wine." ”

Li Defang generously took Feng Hong, politely thanked Xiao Xu and Chu Junlan, and said a few more words of greeting before returning to the palace.

Xiao Xu instructed Jingyu to prepare a car, and went to Fusi in Jinyi Weibei Town with Chu Junlan.

There was an edict from the emperor, and the two were politely led to the main hall.

The commander Zhao Qian now holds most of his strength in his hands, and when he saw that Chu Junlan still remembered her good, he smiled very kindly: "The prince of the world, the princess of the world, this is going to the edict?" ”

Xiao Xu bowed.

Chu Junlan said with a smile: "There is an arrangement by Lao Zhao's commander. ”

"Where, you're so polite."

Zhao Qian arranged for his henchmen to accompany Xiao Xu and Chu Junlan in, and did not forget to whisper: "His Royal Highness Sixth often walks around in the Imperial Prison these days. ”

Chu Junlan smiled and thanked him: "Thank you for the reminder." ”

The light in the edict prison was very dim, and the deepest part of the long corridor was pitch black, like an abyss with no end in sight, and the captain carried a lantern to lead the way in front of him, turned left and right, and sent Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu to the iron gate in a flash.

He stuck the lantern in a high place, looked down and pulled out the key, only to hear a few "bangs", the chains fell to the ground, and even a sharp and piercing "creak" opened the door.

The lieutenant stepped aside.

The dim light of the lantern did not illuminate the pitch-black cell, and a man in a prison uniform could be faintly seen sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking very depressed.

Xiao Xu frowned and entered the door: "Ye Gongzi? ”

Ye Yi gradually seemed to be unable to hear, still staring directly at the light at the door, his eyes fell on Xiao Xu's soap boots and the corner of the brocade robe embroidered with auspicious clouds.
