Huo'er originally wanted to follow Xile to Ouyang's house and pretend that nothing was wrong.
Huo'er always did this when he was in front of Ouyang's house.
But as soon as she came in and saw a large group of people standing in the yard looking directly at her and Xile, she immediately felt like her scalp was numb.
Everyone is here, because the Ouyang family helped the three Mo Qiaoer sisters take care of the funeral of the old man Zhuri, so Wu Yuan's confidants are all here.
Such a big thing happened in the Peacock Palace, so naturally they couldn't hide it, not to mention that Prime Minister Wen secretly sent someone to deliver the message.
When everyone learned that Shen Xiangning had assassinated Emperor Wu, they were all extremely shocked.
Their first thought was that it might be Wu Yuan's order, but after thinking about it carefully, they found that this was not like Wu Yuan's style.
Not to mention that they knew very well that Wu Yuan had no murderous intention towards Emperor Wu.
Even if there was, Wu Yuan's character never fought an uncertain battle. If he wanted to assassinate, it would be impossible for Shen Xiangning to do it alone, not to mention that Shen Xiangning was still injured.
Such a stupid move is completely unlike Wu Yuan's style.
But the key point is that Shen Xiangning only listens to Wu Yuan, and must obey Wu Yuan's words.
If it weren't for Wu Yuan's order, how could Shen Xiangning be so reckless?
But the matter is now over, no matter how they guess, it has already happened.
Originally, he wanted to kill Xiang Donggong to rescue Wu Yuan, but at the critical moment, Ouyang Shishi, the most rational person, stopped everyone.
Because Ouyang Shishi was fully involved in the fight between Wu Yuan and Murong Qinghai last night, he also witnessed Emperor Wu's attitude towards Wu Yuan.
Therefore, Ouyang Shishi would rather take the risk of offending Mo Qiaoer and others, and force them to stay.
And they also analyzed rationally that even if Wu Yuan was arrested and Xile was still there, Xile would definitely come to them because Wu Yuan would definitely give an explanation.
There is now a scene where everyone is waiting eagerly.
Huo'er couldn't stand the looks of these people and was so frightened that he quickly hid behind Xile.
Murong Haitang and Mo Qiaoer also immediately gathered around. They were not going for Huo'er, but just wanted to ask Xile for clarification.
As well as Wu Yuan's current situation, they are eager to know.
Xile grabbed Huo'er who was trying to escape, and then said to everyone: "Wu Yuan is okay for the time being, but he was taken to the prison."
Upon hearing this, Mo Qiaoer suddenly became anxious, "This is unreasonable, how dare they? I will go into the prison right now and rescue brother Wu Yuan."
"Don't go, Wu Yuan told you not to act rashly, and no one can save him." Xile also knew the personalities of Mo Qiaoer and others, and his expression was particularly serious when he spoke.
Then he looked at Akano Hanako who was standing next to him and said, "Be honest with me. Wu Yuan specifically told me that you should continue to stay at Ouyang's house and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
Xile also knew that Akano Hanako only listened to Wu Yuan's orders, and if he was not stopped, he would definitely make his own decisions.
Hearing Xile's words, Akano Hanako frowned slightly, but finally nodded.
Ouyang Shishi also breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Wu Yuan was as she thought. He must not do anything impulsive at this time.
Fortunately, Xi Le came with a message, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to stop it for too long.
At this time, Murong Haitang asked: "What happened to Shen Xiangning? Is it really Wu Yuan..."
After finally asking this question, Huo'er lowered his head and huddled behind Xile.
But he was still pushed forward by Xile, and then he said unceremoniously: "This girl was punished by Wu Yuan and was not allowed to eat for five days. Can you guess why?"
Everyone knows about Huo'er's existence, but no one has ever had in-depth contact with Huo'er.
All they knew was that Wu Yuan and Xin Ruyan valued Huo'er very much. In addition, this girl was a bit mysterious and rarely showed up, so no one paid much attention to her.
They couldn't help but be surprised when they saw that Xile didn't answer their questions directly, but instead talked about Huo'er.
It was Ouyang Shishi who spoke first: "Could Shen Xiangning's assassination have anything to do with this girl?"
Murong Haitang looked at Huo'er who lowered her head and said nothing, and said in surprise: "That's probably the case, otherwise she wouldn't have been punished by Wu Yuan without eating for five days."
Mo Qiaoer grabbed Huo'er impatiently, "What have you done? Are you trying to harm my brother Wu Yuan?"
Huo'er looked up at Mo Qiao'er and said angrily, "Let me go. I'm not trying to harm him, I'm just helping him."
"Fart, you put Brother Wu Yuan in jail, and you still have the nerve to say that you are helping Brother Wu Yuan?" Mo Qiao'er said and wanted to teach Huo'er a lesson.
Anyone who hurts Wu Yuan, no matter who they are, Mo Qiaoer will not let go.
At the critical moment, it was Yan Fei and Yan Miao who held Mo Qiaoer back.
"Miss, don't be impulsive." Yan Fei advised.
Murong Haitang also stood up to smooth things over. Since Wu Yuan had no intention of putting Huo'er to death, it meant that the matter should not be that simple.
She was only punished by not eating for five days. For someone who caused such a big mistake, this punishment can be said to be very light. It is enough to show that Wu Yuan did not want to do anything to Huo'er, and he may not even blame her too much.
After Mo Qiaoer was pulled away, Murong Haitang also asked Huoer: "So, was it really you who asked Shen Xiangning to assassinate Emperor Wu?"
Huo'er also knew that he couldn't escape, so he simply showed his cards and said very bachelorly: "That's right. I even gave Wu Yuan's pistol to Shen Xiangning."
"Why did you do this? Do you know that even the court ministers are no longer on Wu Yuan's side, and Emperor Wu also issued an order on the spot to withdraw Wu Yuan's throne. Do you know what this means? It means that Wu Yuan even He may be expelled from the royal family and demoted to a commoner."
Regarding the royal rules, Murong Haitang seemed to know much better than others.
Of course, Xile was also aware of the consequences.
"What does this have to do with it? This is Wu Yuan's destiny and cannot be avoided. I just helped him advance this destiny a little earlier. He will thank me in the future." Huo'er also said with certainty.
"Thank you again? I think I'll just starve you to death." Mo Qiaoer said viciously.
Huo'er curled his lips and said with some disdain: "I will never die of hunger."
To Mo Qiaoer's ears, this was simply a provocation, and he was about to pounce on him again with all his teeth and claws.
Huo'er was really a little afraid of Mo Qiao'er. Among the people present, the most irrational one was Mo Qiao'er, followed by Xile who was fearless.
Huo'er was confident that other people would not do anything to her.
Murong Haitang gave Huo'er a meaningful look. She didn't know whether to believe Huo'er's previous words or not.
At this time, Ouyang Shishi asked: "Sister Xile, has the master told me what to do next?"
