The Japanese man was about to swing his whip when he saw a group of people suddenly appear and was stunned.

Zhao Haoxuan's eyes were icy as he shouted, "Stop!"

The Japanese warrior reacted and was about to resist, but was knocked down by Zhao Haoxuan with a palm.

Seeing this, the other two guards drew their swords and attacked.

A fierce battle broke out instantly. The guards were all very skilled and soon defeated the guards.

"The Emperor has sent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to rescue you personally!" Eunuch Xu shouted.

The detained officials were stunned at first, and then a glimmer of hope appeared in their eyes.

They struggled to their feet, cheering.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" everyone shouted.

Zhao Haoxuan had the cell opened and the officials helped out.

At this time, an official suddenly said: "Your Highness, Concubine Yin is the ruler of the Wolie Kingdom. She framed us. You must stand up for us!"

"Don't worry, my lord. I'm aware of this matter." Zhao Haoxuan nodded solemnly and said, "I will investigate thoroughly and give you justice."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Everyone knelt again.

Zhao Haoxuan was also touched. "Everyone, please stand up. Father and I will remember all your sacrifices. Don't worry, if some people are forced to do things that are harmful to the court because of you, as long as their crimes are not extremely serious, I will spare their death for your sake. As for you, take care of your health first. The court will make appropriate arrangements for you later. The elderly will be provided with a pension by the court. Those who are still capable of making great contributions in the court will be reinstated."

"Thank you, Your Highness. May you live forever. I am deeply grateful!" All the officials present were moved to tears. They felt that all the persistence over the years was worth it.

Zhao Haoxuan came to the tall, thin, middle-aged man, helped him up, and asked, "Sir, what is your name? What was your previous official position?"

"Reporting to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, my surname is Su, and I was formerly the prefect of Fengzhou." Su Ding replied with some trepidation.

He never expected that a mere prefect of a small state like him could be treated with such courtesy by the current crown prince. He was truly flattered.

"Fengzhou? Prefect? ​​Su?" Zhao Haoxuan was slightly startled, then hurriedly asked, "Who is Cui Yingying to you?"

"Yingying? My Yingying! Your Highness, is she... still alive?" Su Ding looked at Zhao Haoxuan anxiously, his eyes full of expectation.

Zhao Haoxuan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Master Su. She's fine. She's helped me a lot in the past. She's smart and kind, a rare good girl. Moreover, she's already married and even has a child."

"Really? Your Highness, I'm really a grandfather?" Su Ding's eyes instantly reddened upon hearing this, and he said excitedly, "Thank you, Your Highness. I'm deeply grateful. I wonder who my son-in-law is?"

"It's Zhou Shen, who was once engaged to him!" Zhao Haoxuan replied with a smile.

After hearing this, Su Ding was even more shocked.

Then he murmured to himself: "What a good boy! If it weren't for his unwavering loyalty to my daughter, I guess my Yingying..."

He couldn't go on!

"Yes, Mr. Zhou is very good. This is also the fate of the two of us. Now that the Zhou family has recognized her, her future will be very good!" Zhao Haoxuan continued, "Sir Su, you are an honest official and care about the people. You have been wronged and suffered this time. I will report your achievements to my father. When you recover, I hope you can continue to serve the court."

Su Ding knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness trusts me so much, I will repay your grace with my life."

At this time, Eunuch Xu stepped forward and said softly, "Your Highness, it's getting late. We must return as soon as possible to report. It's time to close the net."

Zhao Haoxuan nodded and said to everyone, "Everyone, please follow the emperor's uncle out of the palace first. The court will make all the arrangements for the rest of the matter."

"Everyone, change your clothes and follow me."
