Xiao Yunzhan lowered his eyelids guiltily.

His mother and sisters-in-law, who had always looked respectable, now had dirty faces and wore tattered prison uniforms, which made him feel heartbroken.

His father and brothers died in the battle, leaving the Zhenguo Mansion and his family to him.

As a result, he failed to take good care of his mother and sisters-in-law and caused them to be exiled.

This is all his fault.

He should have retired from the army and become a leisurely duke long ago, then the Xiao family might not have suffered such a tragedy.

But the Xiao family’s 30,000 private soldiers cannot be ignored.

The fathers of those private soldiers had all fought in wars with his father. They were all strong men, and he could not abandon them.

Since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety.

He chose to be loyal to the Daliang Kingdom, but was framed and his entire family was exiled with him.

If he had known earlier, he should have directly rebelled against the dog emperor, and he would not have ended up like this.

"What nonsense are you talking about? We are all family." The second sister-in-law said while wiping her tears.

The eldest sister-in-law nodded and said, "Yes, we are all one family. We prosper together and suffer together. No one should let anyone down."

The third sister-in-law smiled with red eyes, "We have enjoyed the protection of the Xiao family, so we naturally have to bear this consequence. Fourth brother, there is no need to feel guilty."

Seeing how tolerant her daughters-in-law were, Mrs. Xiao was so pleased that she burst into tears.

At critical moments, it can be seen that she made the right choice in marrying these daughters-in-law.

If this happened to someone else's family, they would have fled away as disaster struck.

Lin Yiran couldn't bear to watch this kind of scene, so she took a deep breath and said,

"Now that things have come to this, we should look forward. As long as we are alive, there will always be a way out."

When everyone heard this, they all looked up at Lin Yiran and nodded in agreement, "Fourth brother's wife is right."

Lin Yiran looked around and saw that Old Madam Niu and Madam Niu were already fast asleep.

She waved at everyone, indicating that they should gather together.

Old Man Xiao and his three sisters-in-law were slightly stunned, and came to Lin Yiran with a confused look on their faces.

Lin Yiran whispered,

"I found out that Meng Zhuang had been bribed. When we were almost at the post station, he deliberately provoked me and my second sister-in-law, hoping to anger us so that he could punish us."

The second sister-in-law nodded seriously, "That's right."

Lin Yiran glanced at a few people and continued, "I have had good hearing since I was a child. I just heard the officer tell Meng Zhuang that someone invited him to dinner, and that person was a palace guard."

"You should know better than me who can command the imperial guards."

They looked at each other, and the second sister-in-law squeezed out a few words from her back teeth, "The dog emperor still won't let us go."

Xiao Yunzhan stared at Lin Yiran. He didn't expect that Lin Yiran could actually hear what the officer said.

Even though he is so good at martial arts, he has to be very careful to hear clearly.

Xiao Yunzhan felt that he could no longer see through Lin Yiran.

If she was the emperor's person, why would she inform them and let them be on guard?

If she is not the emperor's woman, then whose is she and what are her intentions?

Lin Yiran glanced at her second sister-in-law and nodded.

"So, we will definitely have a hard time in the future. Everyone should be patient and don't be angered by what the officials say. Let's talk about it after we pass this city."

We are still in the capital city and there are too many spies.

After passing this city and getting rid of these people, she would then persuade them to go to Brahma City.

Madam Xiao's face darkened. "Listen to Lin's orders and try not to cause conflict. We are prisoners now and cannot defeat them."

The old are old, the young are young, and the only one who can fight is injured. What can they use to fight the police?

Save your life first, and then plan the rest later.

The Xiao family's private soldiers are no pushovers, otherwise the dog emperor wouldn't be so fearful.

The sisters-in-law pursed their lips and nodded in response.

The police have weapons and whips in their hands, so they will be the only ones to suffer if a conflict occurs.

If they can endure for a while, everything will be peaceful. They can endure it.

Madam Xiao sighed and looked at Xiao Yunzhan's back again.

"Yun Zhan, how is your injury? Does it hurt a lot? Let me take a look."

My son was seriously injured, with two arrows in his legs. Without a doctor's treatment, it's hard to say whether he will be able to stand up in the future.

Thinking of this, Madam Xiao couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

Xiao Yunzhan shook his head, "Mom, my injury is not serious anymore, and I am recovering well."

He didn't know how to explain the fairy feeding him the elixir.

I can only try my best to prevent my family from seeing the wound and delay it.

Madam Xiao frowned, still very worried.

"Let mom take a look. How can he heal so quickly when he's injured so badly?"

As she spoke, Old Madam Xiao reached out to lift up Xiao Yunzhan's clothes, and the sisters-in-law also turned around to cooperate.

Lin Yiran had no intention of avoiding suspicion. She squatted beside him and looked straight at Xiao Yunzhan's back.

Xiao Yunzhan panicked and quickly reached out to hold his back tightly.

Old Madam Xiao simply ignored Xiao Yunzhan's hand and lifted a corner of her clothes to take a look.

This glance made Old Madam Xiao dumbfounded.

With a look of shock on her face, she reached out and touched Xiao Yunzhan's back.

Then she hurriedly pulled his clothes down to cover him.

This-----is simply unbelievable.

Old Madam Xiao looked at Xiao Yunzhan in astonishment.

There was a few red marks on my son's back, which felt smooth to the touch, with no signs of injury.

If she hadn't seen her son being carried back covered in blood last night, she would have doubted whether her son was not injured.

Xiao Yunzhan saw Madam Xiao's panic-stricken expression and sighed helplessly.

Madam Xiao was also a person who had seen the world. When she heard her son's sigh, she gently squeezed Xiao Yunzhan's hand and deliberately said,

"You are young after all, and your wounds are healing well. The golden wound medicine your father left behind is very effective."

Xiao Yunzhan suddenly turned his head and glanced at the door leading to the cell, then echoed, "Yeah, it's a pity that the medicine my father left behind has run out."

Once it’s used up, there’s nothing left to check.

Everything can be blamed on the non-existent medicine.

Lin Yiran was shocked when she saw Xiao Yunzhan’s wound had completely healed.

As expected of a product from the system mall, the effect is really good.

You know, she saw the wound, it was so deep that you could see the bone.

"That medicine is not easy to make, and the recipe has long been lost. I'm afraid it won't be available in the future."

Old Madam Xiao followed Xiao Yunzhan's gaze and glanced over there, then made a flawless statement.

Lin Yiran frowned, turned her head to look at the door, and found a piece of clothes flashing past the door.

It seems like someone was eavesdropping just now.

No wonder Xiao Yunzhan and Old Madam Xiao suddenly sang the same tune.

Her alertness is still too low. She needs to be more careful next time.

The three sisters-in-law turned their backs to Xiao Yunzhan, and listened to what Old Madam Xiao said, with relieved smiles on their faces.

It's fine as long as the wound heals and doesn't get burned.

The injury is so serious that I’m most afraid of it getting inflamed and burning.

Xiao Yunzhan's ears moved slightly, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the person eavesdropping at the door leave.

“Gurgle~Gurgle~”

Xiao Yunzhan breathed a sigh of relief, and his stomach immediately started to sing the empty city plan.
