He continued flipping through the records and quickly found the most recent one:
"News has come from the Prefect's office that the Madam seems to have been placed under house arrest, and there are even rumors that she is Medusa? How could that be!"
"The other gentlemen in the household have also been arrested by the Prefect's men. They are armed with arrest warrants from the imperial court, and we don't know what to do."
"...The Yu family is in complete chaos, and Xingnu has disappeared...I wanted to consult with Lord Zu, who is an imperial envoy and should have a solution...Unfortunately, the Imperial Guards said he is in seclusion healing his injuries and will not see any guests."
Zu An frowned, never expecting that he had actually come looking for him. Unfortunately, he was busy thinking of a way to save Yu Yanluo at the time and had no time to think about such things.
"That's right, the Duke must have a way."
"...I heard that the Duke went to demand the people back in person, and many of my companions and I followed him. But it turned out that the Prefect had an imperial edict, and the Duke backed down..."
Zuan sighed, "I didn't expect he was in the team back then."
Yu Yanluo pursed her lips and remained silent. She had naturally overheard Zu An's demand for people under the guise of Jian Yanyou.
"...More and more information suggests that the lady may really be Medusa...How could such a beautiful and noble lady be the evil Medusa?"
Yu Yanluo's expression darkened: "It seems that ordinary people really can't accept this."
Even her guards couldn't accept it, let alone others.
Zuan turned the page again: "...So what if Madam is Medusa? I know all too well what she has done over the years. Even if she is Medusa, she will be a good Medusa and will always be our Madam."
Upon seeing this, Yu Yanluo was taken aback, but a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes.
"...Perhaps the Prefect was worried that we might cause trouble, so he transferred us to this mine. We wanted to disobey, but alas..."
"Wow, something this big has happened at the mine! I wanted to go back to the city to report it, but I was stopped by the other drivers. What bastards!"
Upon seeing this, Yu Yanluo's eyes turned cold.
It turns out that Xu Yu knew all this, but he kept the news a secret.
Even Zu'an secretly cursed Xu Yu for being a scoundrel. At first, he admired Xu Yu for being a capable minister, but what happened later was simply a matter of different positions and different methods, which was understandable.
But knowing that there was a major problem at the mine, deliberately blocking the news in order to deal with the Yu family, disregarding the safety of so many people, is unforgivable.
"He saw Xingnu!" Yu Yanluo exclaimed in surprise upon seeing what was behind her.
Zuan hurriedly checked and discovered that Xingnu had brought her people to this area and was almost discovered by Xu Yu's men. Fortunately, Yu Bin happened to be passing by and came to their aid.
Upon learning that Xingnu was leading people into the mine on Madam Tingyu's orders, he hesitated for a moment before deciding to help escort them. Recently, various strange things had been happening in the mine area, and seeing that Xingnu was injured, he was worried about their safety. In his opinion, this was the only thing he could do for Madam at the moment.
Several guards shared the same idea, but fearing that the news would leak out, they dared not inform too many people, and could only send Xingnu and the others down with their closest guards.
Later, they encountered black fog and had to detour. Then, an earthquake suddenly occurred, and the mine collapsed. He rescued the others first, but he was trapped behind by falling rocks.
He planned to take another route to meet up with Xingnu and the others, but soon after, he heard a strange, murderous voice.
