The smiles on Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu both froze, and they felt incredible at the same time.

When he was young, the eldest princess fought on the battlefield with the late emperor. Her position in the court was naturally transcendent. Emperor Jing Hong also attached great importance to the eldest princess in daily life. Among the royal relatives, in addition to Mrs. Hanmei, the eldest princess was worthy.

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

"Jing Yu, come in and talk." Chu Junlan sat down next to Xiao Xu and called in to come in.

Jing Yu obeyed the order and bowed respectfully.

"The eldest princess's mansion was searched, where are the people in the mansion?"

"When I go back to the princess, it is said that the servants in the Grand Princess's mansion are temporarily detained. If it is normal, everyone in the family will be sold after the house is confiscated, but this time, the emperor did not mention this at all, and only imprisoned everyone in the death row of the Ministry of Justice, and the Grand Princess was also detained together."

Without waiting for Chu Junlan to ask in detail, Jing Yu had already explained the information he had found one by one, "There is no master in the eldest princess's mansion. When the emperor took Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye was unconscious, but it is said that after Mr. Ye woke up, he ignored the emperor's words and was stunned all day long and refused to speak. The emperor thought that Mr. Ye was pretending to be crazy and refused to confess his father's crimes, which was already furious."

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

When Xiao Xu thought of Ye Zhao, his face, which was not very healthy, turned pale a little longer. He could understand Ye Yijian's feelings. Not to mention Ye Yijian's biological son, he, as an apprentice, now when he thinks of Ye Zhao, his heart is still like a big stone weighing thousands of pounds, and he can't breathe in his breath, let alone Ye Yijian? His biological father had done such a big plan and had not taken himself to heart. No matter who it was, he would probably be difficult to accept 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 doing this? Is he still planning to take the whole family in before he can stop?"

"Once a person gets stuck in the horns, I'm afraid he won't care about that much." Xiao Xu sighed.

Chu Junlan asked Hu Zi to retreat, and then whispered to Xiao Xu: "Xuxu, what do you think about the Ye family?"

In the past, Chu Junlan always liked to tease him. When he called him Xuxu, his voice rose, and his tail sounded long, which made Xiao Xu's heart always thrill. Now she called him less jokes, but she had more ordinary intimacy, which made him feel warm when he heard it.

Xiao Xu took Chu Junlan's hand to his lips and kissed her fingertips: "If I'm not right, you are not allowed to get angry."

Chu Junlan smiled and could already guess Xiao Xu's thoughts: "I'm not angry."

"Although the teacher... Ye Zhuangyuan has been using me from beginning to end, I do have the present because of him. This kindness is real and I dare not forget it. Although I don't like Ye Yijian, he is Ye Zhuangyuan's only bloodline after all, and I don't want them to lose their Ye family."

Chu Junlan smiled and deliberately pinched Xiao Xu's face: "We Xu Xu rarely say it's straightforward to say that we don't like anyone."

Xiao Xu couldn't get rid of it, but he still said bluntly: "Who made him miss you? You will be angry when you see him."

Xiao Xuruyu's handsome face was blushed, looking a bit cute as a young man.

Chu Junlan giggled when he heard this: "Why are you still unwilling to let go of this?"

"He wants to steal you from me, but I will never let it go." Xiao Xu hugged Chu Junlan tightly. Even though he was too big, he pulled the internal injuries on his chest. The wound on his forehead hurt when he lowered his head, but he still refused to let go.

Chu Junlan rubbed in his arms and sighed, "I understand what you mean. In fact, I don't want to see their family scout and exterminate the clan. If that's possible, why don't we persuade Mr. Ye. It's also your disciple who has done his best for Ye Zhuangyuan. What do you think?"

Xiao Xu nodded: "Okay, if you want to visit the imperial prison, you must alarm the emperor."

"That's okay. We act openly and are not afraid of asking others to listen. The emperor knows what we talked about throughout the whole process, so he will naturally not get angry. Besides, Ye Yijian really explained something, which will also help the emperor's affairs." Chu Junlan said with a smile.

Xiao Xu nodded and said, "Then I'll make arrangements, and it's the same when I cross the road."

"Cross the road?"

"Yes, the emperor will know anyway, so why not ask for an order before going there." Xiao Xu said, then asked Jing Yu to prepare the pen and ink, wrote a memorial and handed it to the palace.

Chu Junlan was originally a little nervous, not knowing whether Emperor Jing Hong would agree or be angry. But the emperor's order came soon, and he arranged for the eunuch Li Defang beside him to come.

"Criminal Master, the emperor said that it is your loyalty to share your worries for the emperor. If you can find out what you can find, it will be good. The emperor also said that your body has not yet been cured, so you must take good care of yourself and keep it in good health."

Xiao Xu nodded with a smile, knelt down to the direction of the palace to express his gratitude to Long's kindness.

Chu Junlan gave Li Defang a big Feng Hong: "I'm sorry, Eunuch Li has to go there. It's cold, so please invite Eunuch Li to have a glass of wine."

Li Defang took Feng Hong openly, thanked Xiao Xu and Chu Junlan politely, and exchanged a few more greetings before returning to the palace.

Xiao Xu then ordered Jing Yu to prepare a car and go to the Jinyiwei North Fushi Department with Chu Junlan.

With the emperor's oral orders present, the two were politely led to the main hall by the guest.

Commander Zhao Qian now holds most of his strength in his hands. When he sees Chu Junlan, he still remembers her kindness and smiles very kindly: "Criminal Prince, Princess, will you go to the imperial prison?"

Xiao Xu nodded.

Chu Junlan smiled and said, "If you have any help, Commander Zhao will arrange it."

"Where, you're too polite."

Zhao Qian arranged for his confidant lieutenant to accompany Xiao Xu and Chu Junlan in, and did not forget to whisper: "These days, the sixth prince often walks around the imperial prison."

Chu Junlan smiled and thanked: "Thank you for the commander's reminder."

The light in the imperial prison was very dim, and the deepest part of the long corridor was pitch black, like an abyss that could not be seen at first sight. The captain carried a lantern leading the way, turned left and right, and sent Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu to the front of the flash iron gate.

He inserted the lantern high, lowered his head and turned out the key, and heard a few "rattles" sounds, and the chains fell to the ground, and then there was a sharp and harsh sound of the door opening.

The captain retreated aside.

The dim lantern light could not shine on the dark cell, and a man wearing a prison uniform could be seen sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking very depressed.

Xiao Xu frowned and walked in: "Young Master Ye?"

Ye Yijian seemed to be inaudible, and still stared 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 cloud patterns.
