Chapter 39 Xie Zhaozhao, you are crazy

"So, you were not wronged at all about the low-quality ordnance hidden in the wedding team." Xie Zhaozhao asked gently: "Really?"

"Yes, it's just—"

As soon as Chu Nanxuan finished speaking, a loud slap sounded.

The whole hall was silent.

The guards in the yard, the bell steward in front of the hall, the maid who came in to serve tea, and Mrs. Yu standing next to Xie Zhaozhao all froze into stone sculptures.

No one believed what just happened.

Chu Nanxuan's handsome face was tilted to one side, and five extremely dazzling finger prints appeared on his cheek.

He was extremely shocked and angry.

Chu Nanxuan turned around extremely slowly, and his eyes, which were originally filled with tenderness like water, turned into ice in an instant.

"Thank you Zhaozhao." Chu Nanxuan's thin lips parted lightly: "Are you crazy?"

"You are crazy."

Xie Zhaozhao said calmly: "You know the guilt of being contaminated with inferior ordnance, but you knowingly committed the crime. You wanted to die yourself, and you had to drag our Xie family into the water with you."

"You also chose our wedding day as a cover-up..."

Xie Zhaozhao stared into Chu Nanxuan's eyes and asked: "The wedding is not sincere. Disposing of those inferior ordnance is the purpose of your wedding that day, isn't it, General Chu?"

Chu Nanxuan was extremely angry.

Now he wished he had a knife that could chop Xie Zhaozhao alive.

But he can't.

He suppressed his anger and said with a stern face: "I never thought about involving the Xie family, and these weapons were forced... The matter has nothing to do with me, otherwise I would not be able to leave the prison."

"Then tell me, who forced you to do it?"

"I can't say it." Chu Nanxuan couldn't bring himself to put on a smile to deal with this mother and daughter.

He turned to Mrs. Yu and said stiffly: "Mrs. Yu, you and Zhao Zhao should go back first. My nephew is still a little unwell. He needs to rest for two days to recover. Then he will come to apologize in person."

At this time, Mrs. Yu finally came to her senses and said stiffly, "Okay."

Xie Zhaozhao never glanced at Chu Nanxuan again, turned around and walked away without any regret.

When they got on the carriage, Yu finally couldn't help but said: "Zhaozhao, how can you...how can you beat him? That child Nanxuan must have some reasons!"

"Besides, he suffered the consequences of this matter himself and did not implicate the Xie family."

"We came to visit him, you-"

"Mother." Xie Zhaozhao slowly looked at Mr. Yu, "Am I your daughter or is he your son? Do you feel sorry for him so much?"

Yu choked.

Xie Zhaozhao added: "I don't know if he has any difficulties, but if he didn't touch inferior ordnance, he wouldn't be in prison. He deserves to suffer."

"As for the Xie family not being implicated, that's because the Xie family is indeed innocent, because daddy reacted astutely, and because the emperor is wise."

"This is not Chu Nanxuan's credit, mother."

Yu opened her mouth, but once again had nothing to say.

"But if we take a step back, my father reacts too slowly, or there are enemies in the Duke of Liang's palace who are deliberately trying to frame me, or the emperor is already dissatisfied with the Xie family, so just relying on inferior ordnance, the entire Xie family will not be able to be killed."

Xie Zhaozhao turned his eyes away from Mr. Yu's face: "Chu Nanxuan put my Xie family on the hunting oil and cooked it. I slapped him lightly."

Yu was silent for a while, "The truth is like this..." "Mom, did you see the look in his eyes just now?" Xie Zhaozhao pulled his lips, "He is very angry."

"He is usually the most filial and respectful to you and dad. No matter what happens, he is always good-tempered and angry. This time he even issued an expulsion order for you."

Yu said: "If you slap someone, no one will be happy or angry."

But he was also thinking about Chu Nanxuan's reaction just now.

Chu Nanxuan looked back at Xie Zhaozhao and asked her if she was "crazy". It was really scary.

The hostility is very heavy.

Mrs. Yu watched Chu Nanxuan grow up and had never seen him look like that.

Yu frowned and thought, could it be that being in Tianlao for a month was too depressing and his good temper was worn away?
Xie Zhaozhao smiled: "Perhaps I have never been a good-natured person. I just pretend to be so. This time I am too angry to pretend."

Yu's expression was complicated for a while, then he sighed and stopped talking.

It seems that Xie Zhaozhao has great opinions on Chu Nanxuan.

Is it really because of that nightmare?
……

After Chu Nanxuan waited for Xie Zhaozhao and his daughter to leave, the look in his eyes immediately became extremely cold.

"The old slave asked someone to prepare ice cubes for the young master. Applying it will quickly reduce the swelling."

Butler Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Did Xie Zhaozhao take the wrong medicine? The young master hasn't even asked her why she colluded with Wang Hang of Dingxi to send you to the heavenly prison, and she beat you up!"

Chu Nanxuan said with a stern face, "She seems to have changed."

"Yes, some things have happened recently, and people are saying that Miss Xie's seventh daughter has changed her gender." Butler Zhong immediately told Chu Nanxuan some of the recent things.

"What? She beat Xingchen? She also banned Xingchen and the second lady?"

"Yes." Butler Zhong looked solemnly: "I heard that it was because the Second Madam and Miss Xingchen prepared money to help you with the prison, but Xie Zhaozhao and Madam Yu broke it."

"Not only was he grounded, he was also deprived of his stewardship rights."

"..."

Chu Nanxuan's expression changed again, "She was very nice when I saw her a few days before the wedding."

"When I picked her up in a sedan chair and left Xie's Mansion, I talked to her. She was in a good mood, as usual."

"In other words, she changed her temper after being robbed by Yun Qi from the sedan chair."

"Did King Dingxi do something?" Butler Zhong looked confused, "But what can he do to make a person's temperament change drastically in one day?"

Chu Nanxuan thought for a moment and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Can you send someone to inquire about Xingchen and the second lady? Are they okay?"

"It's not good." Manager Zhong sighed: "Miss Xingchen fell off the horse earlier and injured her waist. She didn't recover well in the first place, and now she is grounded again..."

"I heard that Xie Zhaozhao brought those big and rough maids who harmed her to make trouble in the courtyard."

"Miss Xingchen and the Second Madam were both frightened and fell ill. They have been drinking soup and medicine these days."

"Thank Zhaozhao for being such a tigress!" Manager Zhong said angrily: "Miss Xingchen's body has been very weak these years, how can she withstand her abuse."

Chu Nanxuan made a "pop" sound and clenched the armrest of the chair hard, with anger and worry mixed in his eyes.

But that is the Xie family's family matter after all. How can we help Xingchen?
……

Xie Zhaozhao returned to Wangyue Tower. As soon as he sat down, Xianggui quickly came to Xie Zhaozhao and reported: "Miss, someone outside delivered a letter to the two Yilanyuan people, here."

"Let me take a look." Xie Zhaozhao took it casually. After opening it, he only glanced at the handwriting and curled his lips, "It's really brave."
