Zhao Hu led everyone back to the courtyard.

Seeing that several people were in a hurry and Chen Mo was not in the car, Uncle Fu realized that the situation was not good and asked the reason for the matter.

Pei Jiangnan, who was guarding the gate, also came over curiously. He was assigned here to protect the safety of Chen Mo and others. If Chen Mo got into trouble, he would be guilty.

Su Yumo's eyes were red and her cheeks were wet with tears. Facing Uncle Fu's question, she knelt down with a "thump", "Uncle Fu, everyone, I'm sorry for you. If it weren't for me, the young master would not have offended the Prince of Ning."

"Prince of Ning...what happened?"

Uncle Fu was immediately anxious. Prince of Ning was a royal relative. The head of the family had to be polite when he saw him. How could Chen Mo offend him for no reason?

Su Yumo wiped her tears and told everyone what had just happened.

Hearing this, everyone took a breath of cold air. Beating the prince of a vassal in public was a crime that Chen Mo, a small abandoned child of the Chen family, could not bear.

"It's over, it's over. Why did the young master do this? I'm afraid the prince of Ning will not let him go easily."

"No, the prince of Ning never intended to let him go from the beginning. Do you remember who came to kill the third young master?"

At this time, Zhang Long, who had been silent, spoke up.

Zhao Hu raised his eyebrows and his face changed slightly. Although he was present at the time, he had been beaten unconscious and didn't know what happened at the time.

"Ning Wang's men, my brother said that the prison break was related to Ning Wang."

Liu Wuxin said. She was next to Chen Mo at the time and she heard these things clearly.

Now everyone was completely desperate. This was a deliberate game against Chen Mo. Whether he beat him or not, he would die.

They were just ordinary people in Xingdou, how could they afford to provoke such a big man.

Now, they really realized how insignificant they were.

"The prison break is related to Prince Ning? Why didn't Brother Chen tell me about this? No, Brother Chen was framed. I must clear his name in this matter." Pei Jiangnan's face was gloomy, and he was about to leave with a knife. "Stop" As the oldest person present, Uncle Fu stopped Pei Jiangnan, "Are you going to Prince Ning's Mansion this time?" Pei Jiangnan nodded slightly, "Prince Ning has done many evil things, and the prince has framed Brother Chen. If I don't care about this, wouldn't I be ashamed of my conscience?" "You are going to die. Although you are a member of the Zhenwu Division, the Prince of Ning is the cousin of the current emperor. If you go there rashly, not to mention whether you can keep your official position in the Zhenwu Division, even your head will be taken off. Act calmly..." Uncle Fu turned to look at Zhao Hu, "Does the young master have any words before leaving?" "Wait for Brother Aotian to rescue him"

"Then wait"

"But Young Master Long is elusive and hasn't been seen in the past few days. Who knows when he will show up? No, we can't just sit there and wait for death... I'm going to ask Brother Chen"

Pei Jiangnan couldn't sit still and turned around to leave. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. He was startled, thinking it was Long Aotian and hurried to open the door, but he saw that the person who came was an old man.

"Excuse me, is Chen Mo here? I'm Xu Changqing, and I'm here to visit you."

The old man bowed his hands and asked respectfully.

"Brother Chen is not here. He was framed by Prince Ning and is now in prison."

Seeing that it was not Long Aotian, Pei Jiangnan didn't look good and wanted to dismiss him with a few words.

"What? Chen Mo was arrested? When did this happen? Framed? What happened? My friend, although I don't have any official position, I do have some connections in the court. Please tell me what happened. How can I have any connections? If you can help me, I won’t refuse.”

Xu Changqing's words immediately caught Su Yumo's attention. She turned her beautiful eyes and her delicate body suddenly stagnated. She quickly stood up and ran over, "The old gentleman is Xu Changqing, the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine."

"I am exactly the same. Miss, have you seen me?"

Xu Changqing nodded slightly and raised his eyes to take a look at Su Yumo. Both her clothes and her temperament were good. She looked like she was not an ordinary girl, but her face made people dare not compliment her.

"We met a few years ago... This matter is no longer important. I have to worry about Mr. Xu for the young master's affairs."

To put it bluntly, the Imperial Academy's wine ceremony is similar to that of the principal of a school, with no real power. However, Xu Changqing has a wide network of contacts and has many disciples and former officials all over the world. Even the current empress has to give him some slack. If he is willing to help, maybe he can really keep Chen Mo. little life.

Xu Changqing nodded slightly, "I don't have time to ask about the cause of the matter now. May I ask where Chen Mo was taken? I will go find out about him now."

"The Prison of the Ministry of Punishment"

Pei Jiangnan stepped forward quickly and responded: "Old sir, I happen to be going too, why don't we come together?"

"good"

Xu Changqing nodded slightly, said goodbye to Su Yumo, and then left the courtyard with Pei Jiangnan.

Not long after the two left, two more people hurried over. It was Long Aotian and her teacher.

Seeing the arrival of Long Aotian, Zhao Hu was overjoyed and said, "Master Long, I can finally see you."

Long Aotian frowned slightly. She looked around and saw that Chen Mo was not there, and neither was Pei Jiangnan. She couldn't help but wonder, "Where is Chen Mo?"

"The third young master was arrested..."

Zhao Hu sighed helplessly and told Long Aotian what happened in the mountains one by one. At the same time, he also told about Prince Ning, "Before the third young master was arrested, he asked me to ask Mr. Long for help."

Long Aotian raised his eyebrows and looked a little ugly, "Prince Ning? Is he the mastermind behind these things?".

"It's very possible"

The old man next to Long Aotian narrowed his eyes to a slit. After thinking for a moment, he whispered: "Prince Ning was responsible for guarding the imperial mausoleum at the beginning. Although he is no longer in the imperial capital, there are people of his both inside and outside the imperial mausoleum. Maybe, the Tianlong Jue you learned that day was deliberately put down by his order, and its purpose is self-evident..."

Long Aotian's eyes were slightly cold, "Chen Mo offended Prince Ning by providing us with clues to the prison robbery, so they tried every means to kill him. In my opinion, even if Chen Mo didn't kill Long Hua today, they would have other ways to harm him, okay? A Prince Ning, a Prince Ning... It seems that if I don’t take action, they really think that Prince Ning has the final say in this Tianlong Dynasty.”

"This matter is of great importance. You must not act rashly... If this matter is handled well, the danger of the vassal king can be eliminated and the world will be shocked. If not handled well, the Eight Kings will rebel and the Tianlong Dynasty will become a piece of sand."

The old man reminded in a low voice.

Long Aotian nodded slightly, and suddenly remembered Chen Mo's words, "Oh, since you all want me to die, then I want to see what you will do if I am critically ill. The traitor has already jumped out, and Prince Ning is one of them. Who else is next...".
