Unlike their spectator-like attitude, Liu Yao's face darkened completely: "Miss Xie, do you know what you're saying?"
Xie Daoyun smiled politely as always: "Of course I know."
Seeing her so firm, Liu Yao felt a sense of unease. Had the Chu family completely sided with Prince Qi? It seemed he needed to report this matter to the Empress as soon as possible.
Seeing that he did not speak, Zu'an said, "We would like to request an audience with the master and mistress. I wonder if General Liu could do us a favor."
Liu Yao's eyes widened in shock; this guy was going too far!
Liu Yao's anger level increased by 666!
Just then, a clear laugh rang out: "After all, Lord Mingyue hasn't been convicted yet, so he's not a criminal. It's only reasonable for his family to visit him."
A group of people rushed over, and the one in the lead was none other than Xie Yi, the city lord of Mingyue City. Beside him was a man who was more beautiful than a woman, who was none other than his son, Xie Xiu.
"Father!" Xie Daoyun exclaimed with delight upon seeing their arrival.
Xie Yi glared at her: "Hurry up and come here. Hugging and cuddling with a man is indecent."
"Oh~" Xie Daoyun lowered her head guiltily, stuck out her tongue, and whispered to Zu An, "Zu An, I'll go back first."
"Okay, thank you for today, Miss," Zu An replied with a smile.
Xie Daoyun blushed slightly and took small steps to Xie Yi's side.
Seeing his sister's shy expression, Xie Xiu couldn't help but glance at Zu An. "You brat, I treated you as a friend, and now you want to be my brother-in-law?"
But when did my sister and he get together?
At this moment, Liu Yao's voice came: "So it's City Lord Xie. May I ask what brings you here today?"
Xie Yi smiled slightly: "I came here specifically because I heard there were some misunderstandings here."
“What misunderstanding could there be? Since Zuan is willing to protect the security of the outer perimeter, then we’ll have to trouble you,” Liu Yao suddenly put on a smiling face. Seeing that Xie Yi was clearly on the side of the Chu family, he knew that if a real conflict broke out, he would definitely be the one to suffer. So there was no need to continue to be stubborn. Anyway, it wouldn’t be too late to settle accounts with the Chu and Xie families after finding out the solid evidence.
Seeing how quickly he changed his expression, Zu An was dumbfounded. He thought to himself that he thought he was shameless enough, but compared to these people who were involved in politics, he was still inferior. If it were him, he would never be able to turn anger into joy so quickly.
But now that the other party has softened, there's no reason for him not to push his luck: "General Liu, you should have done this earlier. Why did you have to force me to win people over with virtue?"
Liu Yao's expression changed drastically: "What did you say!"
Liu Yao's anger level increased by 666!
