Chapter 247: Redeemed?
Before she could finish her words, Yuan Xu had already grabbed the madam's throat and said coldly, "Don't scream. Just answer whatever I ask you. If you dare to make a sound and attract others, I'll break your neck immediately!"
The madam suddenly had difficulty breathing and a look of horror appeared on her face, but because her throat was strangled, she couldn't even shout for help!
She looked at the two masked men in black in front of her in horror and nodded hurriedly.
Yuan Xu relaxed her neck slightly, and Xiao Yunshuo asked, "Where is the woman who was sent here by three men tonight?"
The madam was stunned for a moment, then she said tremblingly, "Oh...you...you mean the one who was sold by her uncle? She...she's no longer in Wanhua Tower!"
Xiao Yunshuo narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked, "What do you mean by not in Wanhua Tower?"
The madam stammered and continued, "You two are a step too late. The woman has already been... redeemed!"
"Who redeemed you?"
"Please spare my life, both of you. I can't afford to offend that master. Even if I were given a hundred times the courage, I wouldn't dare to say it! Don't ask anymore, even you can't afford to offend him!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunshuo sneered and said, "Since you refuse to speak, kill him immediately."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xu agreed with a "Yes!". Just as he was about to take action, the madam was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, crying, "My two heroes, why are you really doing this? I'm not telling you because I'm really doing this for your own good..."
Yuan Xu kicked her and said, "Stop talking nonsense. If you don't, you'll die!"
The madam didn't dare to struggle any further and said, "The one who redeemed that woman was none other than General Qu, who is stationed in Dingzhou Prefecture! If you still have any connection with that woman, I advise you to give up on this..."
Before she could finish her words, Yuan Xu had already knocked her and the eunuch unconscious!
"Your Highness..."
Xiao Yunshuo said coldly, "Go to the General's Mansion."
Qin Mengyue is deeply involved in the general's mansion, so as her son, he naturally cannot ignore her.
Yuan Xu slumped to his knees and said, "Your Highness, please think twice. The Second Prince is currently in the General's Mansion, and Naqu Wenmin has also met Your Highness before. You were able to deceive them with disguises in the past only because Your Highness kept a low profile and did not attract their attention. If you force your way in tonight, and your identity is discovered, not only will the Empress be unable to be rescued, but Your Highness's safety will also be in jeopardy..."
Xiao Yunshuo knew all this very well. Even if she could escape unscathed by breaking into the general's mansion tonight, once her identity was exposed, the first ones to suffer would be her, her mother, and her ninth brother.
But Qin Mengyue is his mother, how could he not save her?
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came: "I have an idea."
When Xiao Yunshuo looked up, he saw Chen Fenghe wearing men's clothes, looking like a dandy young man.
"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay in the inn?"
Chen Fenghe said, "If something happens to my mother, how can I stay in the inn with peace of mind? Don't worry, I have already reported it to Master Chen and Master Yuan. I told them that my mother might have been abducted by Qin Jinzhong and others. I also asked him and Aunt Zhang to help look after Yichuan Yunhao and the others. I just came out now. The masters will never think that I am a fugitive."
Xiao Yunshuo felt somewhat helpless and said anxiously in a low voice, "I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about you! Besides, a place like this is not for a woman like you to come to."
Chen Fenghe glanced at him and said unconvincedly: "If it's not me who should come, then is it you who should come?"
There was an inexplicable hint of jealousy in these words.
Chen Fenghe coughed twice to cover it up, and said seriously, "I knew it was inappropriate, so I disguised myself as a man. But this matter is not important. The most important thing now is to rescue my mother. It's urgent. Will you listen to my plan or not?"
