Xianzong summoned the imperial physician into the inner hall and asked Yu Xiaoxiao and Jing Mo to disappear for a while as he wanted some quiet time.
"Then where are we going?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked Xianzong.
"Just stay in the front," Xianzong roared. As an emperor, couldn't he just stay alone for a while?
Yu Xiaoxiao pouted, "Let's go, I'm leaving now, why are you so angry? If the house burns down, isn't it the end of life?"
"Get out!" Xianzong shouted at the top of his lungs.
Jing Mo gently pulled Yu Xiaoxiao and tilted his head towards the inner hall door.
At this time, Su Zhao saw the secret guards leading the imperial doctors into the inner hall, and he quickly said to Emperor Xianzong, "Uncle, what the princess said makes sense. Gu Xinglang was rebellious, but Gu Xingnuo and Gu Xingyan didn't know about it."
Yu Xiao: “What?”
Jing Mo glanced behind him, pulled Yu Xiaoxiao to his side, and whispered, "Let Su Zhao speak, don't say anything."
Xianzong reacted quickly and continued Su Zhao's words, "I have my own thoughts on this matter, my nephew, there is no need for you to say more."
Jiang Zhuojun walked behind Yu Xiaoxiao and whispered, "Please speak for Brother Gu and the others."
Yu Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at Jiang Zhuojun.
Jiang Zhuojun asked Yu Xiaoxiao to look towards the inner hall door.
The secret guard who was leading the way stopped when he heard Xianzong talking to Su Zhao, and the imperial doctors following him also bowed their heads and stood still.
Jiang Zhuojun urged Yu Xiaoxiao: "Go ahead and speak."
Yu Xiaoxiao said to Xianzong: "What do you mean, Dad, please let my elder brother Gu and the second brother Gu go."
Xianzong said: "Shut up"
"Little Gu"
"Gu Xinglang" Jing Mo pulled Yu Xiaoxiao's sleeve.
Yu Xiaoxiao felt that it was too difficult to plead for love. What should she say?
"Uncle," Jiang Zhuojun said at this time, "The Gu family has made great contributions to your Fengtian. Although Gu Xinglang committed treason, Gu Xingnuo and Gu Xingyan did not know about it beforehand. The two brothers also made great contributions in suppressing the rebellion. I hope you, uncle, will show mercy to the Gu family."
Xianzong had to maintain his emperor's airs at this time, waved his hand and said, "You can leave first."
"Uncle," Jing Mo also wanted to say a few words.
Yu Xiaoxiao was impatient, and before Jing Mo could finish what he was going to say, she said to Xianzong: "If you want to kill Brother Gu and Brother Gu, then I will die."
Xianzong's lips trembled, and he pointed at the inner hall door and said, "Get out of here right now." This guy is just like a pleader.
"If you don't believe me, you will regret it," Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Xianzong seriously and said, "I will definitely die."
"Okay, go and die," Xianzong said, "Get away from me and die."
Yu Xiaoxiao pointed at Xianzong and said, "Then we'll see."
Xianzong no longer looked at his daughter. No matter whether she was acting or not, she was always able to make him upset.
Yu Xiaoxiao walked out huffing. The secret guard knew it was all acting, so he managed to keep a normal mentality. The imperial doctors didn't dare to breathe. While they were afraid, they also had their own judgment on the fact that Gu Xingnuo and his brother were imprisoned by Emperor Xianzong. With Her Royal Highness the Princess protecting them, the brothers' imprisonment this time should be a case of much ado about nothing, and a big thing would be turned into a small thing.
Yu Xiaoxiao arrived at the front hall, turned her head to look at the inner hall door that was closed again, and asked Jing Mo: "Is what I did just now okay?"
Jing Mo, is this okay? You've already done this, what else can I say?
"Forget it," Su Zhao sat down on an empty chair and whispered, "Let the doctors hear the princess and us pleading for Brother Gu and the others. This matter will soon spread to the court. Our goal has been achieved, so let's not force the process."
Yu Xiao: "I think I did a good job, threatening to die."
Jing Mo also found an empty chair and sat down. There was no way to continue this topic.
Jiang Zhuojun looked at Yu Xiao: "Princess, Xinglang has already left with the Earth Spirit."
Yu Xiaoxiao asked hurriedly: "Did the earth spirit embarrass Xiao Gu?"
Jiang Zhuojun smiled and said, "He was seriously injured, so he doesn't have the energy to embarrass Princess Xinglang. Don't worry, Xinglang is fine."
Yu Xiaoxiao had no doubt about Jiang Zhuojun's words. She didn't show any reaction on her face, but her tone became much lighter. She said, "That's fine. I'll go to the Eternal Life Temple to find Xiao Gu."
Jing Mo stared at Jiang Zhuojun's eyes for a while and said, "Sit down and talk. What did the princess do tonight?"
"Nothing." Yu Xiaoxiao sat across a coffee table from Jiang Zhuojun. She looked at Jing Mo who was sitting opposite her and said, "We acted out a scene together in the palace, and then we went out with Xiong Xiong and the others to rob Lord Hong's family. Then Xiao Jiang and I sent my little Gu out of the city, and then I came back."
Su Zhao said: "Who is Lord Hong?"
Yu Xiao: "Xiao Wei said that he was a member of the family tree of the previous dynasty. I don't know his specific name. We happened to be standing at his door at that time. Anyway, we had nothing to do, so Xiongxiong and I robbed this adult."
Jing Mo was very confused about what expression he should make at this moment. Should he laugh or cry? "I'm free anyway," Jing Mo whispered, imitating Yu Xiaoxiao's words.
Yu Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Although Xiongxiong and I added the plot privately, we didn't do anything bad."
Jing Mo stroked his forehead and said, "No one followed the script today."
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Su Zhao and said, "A Zhao, what did you do?"
Jiang Zhuojun whispered, "He set fire to the entire street."
"Is someone dead?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked.
Su Zhao shook his head and said, "No, everyone escaped from their homes. Some were injured, but no one was burned to death."
"Tsk," Yu Xiaoxiao smacked her lips and said, "My dad will want to die after hearing this news."
Jing Mo and his three companions
Zuo You walked in at this time, all smokey and burning, without looking at anyone else, he just looked at Yu Xiao and said, "Princess, your main palace gate needs to be rebuilt."
Yu Xiao: “It fell.”
Zuo You poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and said, "It didn't collapse, but the corner towers, battlements and everything else were burned down. Oh, by the way, the inner palace gate collapsed."
"I know this. I was the one who knocked down the inner palace door," Yu Xiaoxiao admitted, raising her hand.
Su Zhao sighed, "Uncle Shi is really going to die."
Yu Xiaoxiao stood up, let Zuo You sit in her seat, and said to Jing Mo: "This scene is over, I will go to Xuanwu now. When will Gui Ning and the others go back? Fu Boyuan can trust it, right?"
Jing Mo quickly looked up at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "Let's go now."
Yu Xiao: "Xiao Gu is gone, what am I staying here for?"
Jing Mo smiled bitterly and said, "I will arrange for Gui Ning and the others to return to Xuanwu as soon as possible. Princess, you can go if you want to. Be careful and take care of yourself."
Yu Xiao: "Well, I will be careful. Jingmo, you go back to Zhuri to prepare. After I finish my work in Xuanwu, I will go to Zhuri to find you."
Su Zhao asked with concern: "Princess, how long will it take you to finish your work in Xuanwu?"
"Very soon," Yu Xiaoxiao assured Su Zhao, "Maybe Jing Mo is still on his way home, and I've already arrived at Zhuri."
