Chapter 38 Chu Nanxuan is released from prison

Xiangrong still retreated.

Xie Zhaozhao sat on the armchair with a book, but had no intention of reading. He stared at the jumping flames. He spent the rest of the night thinking about the events of his previous life and pondering about Ruanjin San.

It wasn't until dawn that Xie Zhaozhao climbed onto the bed again tiredly.

After so much trouble, it was noon when I got up.

Xianggui came in to serve Xie Zhaozhao for lunch, with a strange expression.

"what happened?"

Xie Zhaozhao asked while eating Xiao Long Bao, "Tell me."

"There is something." Xianggui hesitated: "My uncle has come out of the prison!"

Xie Zhaozhao paused and slowly looked towards Xianggui.

Those beautiful big eyes were so clear, not even a ripple was visible.

Xie Zhaozhao asked: "When?"

"After today's morning session," Xianggui said, "I've gone home."

Xie Zhaozhao was silent for a moment, lowered his head and continued to eat.

Xianggui observed Xie Zhaozhao for a while, and it was difficult to tell her mood.

After finishing his food, Xie Zhaozhao put down his chopsticks and said calmly: "Don't call him uncle, he is not."

"Uh... I obey, my slave." Xianggui didn't dare to ask any more questions and asked someone to clear away the dishes.

As soon as she took her maid down, footsteps sounded in the yard.

A moment later, Mrs. Yu came over. Although she called "Zhao Zhao'er" with a loving smile on her face, her eyes were exactly the same as Xiang Gui's just now.

Xie Zhaozhao knew why Yu came here.

Sure enough, after the mother and daughter said a few words of personal truth, Mrs. Yu said: "Nan Xuan has been released... He has been locked up in the sky prison for two months. I don't know if he has suffered. Look, do you want to go over and have a look?" Mom will go with you."

Xie Zhaozhao lowered his head and said nothing.

"Zhaozhao..." Mrs. Yu carefully considered her words: "You and Nan Xuan have known each other since childhood. The two families know each other well."

"He treats you well and respects me and your father very much. If you don't want to be with him just because of the dream, it's really a bit of a joke."

"Tell mom honestly, did you and Nan Xuan have any conflicts? Tell me, and mom will help you figure it out and come up with an idea."

The two children have always been lovers.

Now Xie Zhaozhao suddenly turned his back. There was only one dream, which was really unconvincing. Yu had thought a lot in the past month, and the only thing she could think of was that there was a problem between the two children.

Xie Zhaozhao was not surprised by Shi's reaction.

Chu Nanxuan is a very sophisticated person, and his ability to disguise is so good that even someone as sophisticated as Xie Wei can be deceived, let alone the Yu family?
"No." Xie Zhaozhao was silent for a moment and said, "Then go and see him."

Yu was delighted: "Okay!"

Xie Zhaozhao and Chu Nanxuan were childhood sweethearts with deep feelings, and their marriage was granted by imperial decree.

Even if the ordnance and bride-robbing matters were excluded, in fact, in the hearts of Yu Shi and Xie Wei, Chu Nanxuan had long been their son-in-law.

Naturally, Mrs. Yu doesn't want the young couple to have conflicts.

On the way there, Mrs. Yu held Xie Zhaozhao's hand and asked her daughter insinuatingly about the issues between her and Chu Nanxuan.

But every time, Xie Zhaozhao avoided him with all his strength.

Yu could only give up.

Chu Nanxuan's father, Chu Pengcheng, died protecting Emperor Xuanwu from a poisonous arrow.

Chu Nanxuan was only 12 years old when he died.

Emperor Xuanwu was grateful for Chu Pengcheng's life-saving grace and always cared about Chu Nanxuan.Chu Nanxuan himself is very impressive. He became a general at the age of 20 and is a leader among the younger generation in Shengjing.

Chu Pengcheng only has one wife, Yang, and only one son, Chu Nanxuan.

After his death, Yang and Chu Nanxuan, mother and son, were left to depend on each other.

The carriage stopped in front of the general's mansion, and Xie Zhaozhao and Yu got out of the carriage.

Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyes and looked at the majestic gate tower, with an almost invisible sneer on his lips, which disappeared in an instant.

So fast that no one noticed.

The servant went and knocked on the door.

"Zhaozhao." Mrs. Yu held Xie Zhaozhao's hand, "Let's talk about it later. Don't be angry. Nanxuan must have suffered a lot after being in Tianlao for so long."

"Ah."

Xie Zhaozhao responded calmly.

After a while, the corner door was opened, and Butler Zhong of the General Mansion came forward quickly and said respectfully: "I have met Mrs. Yu and Miss Zhaozhao. My general is changing his clothes. Please come to the hall and sit down for a while." .”

"Okay." Xie Zhaozhao responded and entered the general's mansion with Yu.

Along the way, the servants in the general's mansion looked a little bad when they saw the mother and daughter.

Especially the look in Xie Zhaozhao's eyes was a bit complaining.

In their opinion, Chu Nanxuan's imprisonment was caused by Xie Zhaozhao, and Xie Zhaozhao began to get entangled with Yun Qi again.

But everything was business as usual for Butler Zhong.

After taking the mother and daughter into the hall, Butler Zhong ordered tea to be served. He leaned over and said to Shi and Xie Zhaozhao, "Wait a moment. The younger one will hurry up the general."

"Butler Zhong, take care of yourself." After Mrs. Yu said politely, Butler Zhong withdrew.

Mrs. Yu looked worried: "I don't know if Nan Xuan is injured?"

Xie Zhaozhao said nothing and gently shook his fan.

That gesture was not like visiting a long-lost fiancé, but just wandering around somewhere casually.

Yu glanced at her and stopped talking.

She suddenly felt a little uneasy, "Zhaozhao, you - why haven't you spoken?"

"I was thinking about the way those servants looked at me just now." Xie Zhaozhao said lightly: "They all blamed me for harming Chu Nanxuan, but Butler Zhong is still as respectful to us mother and daughter as usual."

Yu frowned: "So?"

"So - mother thinks, when Chu Nanxuan comes, what will he think of us? Will we be like Butler Zhong, or like those servants?"

"This..." Mrs. Yu pursed her lips, "Nanxuan should know that this matter has nothing to do with you. It's from His Highness King Dingxi——"

A series of very rhythmic footsteps sounded in the courtyard.

Yu stopped talking.

A moment later, Chu Nanxuan, dressed in jade-white furniture uniforms, appeared at the door of the hall.

He has an outstanding appearance, with three-dimensional facial features and deep eyes. He has his own grace when he stands there, like a pine or a bamboo.

Xie Zhaozhao always said in the past that his face was just right. If it were a little tougher, it would look rough, if it was softer, it would look feminine.

But now when I see this face, I feel nothing at all. I only see the word damn!
"Nanxuan!" Yu looked at Chu Nanxuan with concern, not only for his body, but also for his attitude towards Xie Zhaozhao.

"Aunt Yan." Chu Nanxuan bowed his hands towards Mrs. Yu, respectfully and politely, then walked up to Pei Zhao, his eyes as gentle as water: "Zhao Zhao."

Perhaps because of the prison sentence, he seemed to have lost some weight, and his clothes were loose. Looking at Mrs. Yu, she felt a little distressed. When he was about to say something, Xie Zhaozhao said calmly: "Don't you blame me?"

Chu Nanxuan shook his head, looking ashamed: "This matter is very complicated... In the end, it was my fault. I shouldn't have done that during the wedding."
