Xiao Chen's expression did not change in the slightest in the face of nearly a hundred imperial guards. Xiao Chen pulled them behind him and said with a calm expression. "If I leave first, who here can stop me?"
His tone was very calm, but it was filled with confidence. It could even be said to be a little arrogant. Hearing this, the Fifth Prince, who had already arrived in front of Xiao Chen, shouted coldly.
"Xiao Chen, don't be so arrogant. I know you are strong, but how many imperial guards can you stop? A hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand? If you don't give me an explanation today, don't even think about walking out of this door. "
Xiao Chen's actions today had completely humiliated the Fifth Prince. Thus, even if he knew that Xiao Chen was Chu Wuming's man, the Fifth Prince did not care.
He shouted angrily. However, just as the Fifth Prince finished speaking, before Xiao Chen could say anything, Chu Wuming had already walked over with large strides. He stood beside Xiao Chen and said in a low voice.
"Fifth Brother, there must be some misunderstanding."
Chu Wuming was clearly unable to sit by and do nothing now that the matter had escalated to such a state. However, after hearing Chu Wuming's words, the fifth prince was clearly unable to care too much at this moment.
Even though he knew that Chu Wuming's influence was much greater than his, the Fifth Prince did not have any intention of backing down. He looked at Chu Wuming and said with a cold expression.
"Third Brother, you don't need to say anymore. If Xiao Chen does not give me an explanation today, I will definitely not let him walk out of this door."
As he spoke, the Fifth Prince took out a Sound Transmission Talisman. Clearly, he wanted to call for more imperial guards. As a prince, Chu Mu treated them fairly. He gave each of them a thousand imperial guards. These people would only listen to the orders of the princes.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince wanted to call for more imperial guards, Chu Wuming's expression darkened slightly. However, when he thought that this matter was Xiao Chen's fault, Chu Wuming still looked at Xiao Chen. Clearly, he wanted Xiao Chen to explain.
Of course, Chu Wuming thought this way because he did not know the relationship between Xiao Chen and Xiao Chen. If he knew the relationship between the two, Chu Wuming would probably not think this way.
Faced with Chu Wuming's gaze, Xiao Chen's expression was calm. However, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Xiao Chen looked around the crowd and said indifferently.
"Everyone wants an explanation, right? Alright, I will give everyone an explanation. "
As he spoke, Xiao Chen pointed at Xiao Chen behind him. He said calmly, "This woman's name is Xiao? She is my younger sister, a sister of the same bloodline. "
"Originally, Xiao Chen and I were together. When we first entered the Moonless Empire, we got separated due to some matters. During this period of time, I have been searching for Xiao Chen. However, there has been no news of her. "
"And now, I have met Xiao Chen here. Everyone, what should I do? "
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone finally understood what was going on. Xiao Chen? Xiao Chen was Xiao Chen's sister. In this way, Xiao Chen's actions could be understood.
Xiao Chen took in the changes in everyone's expressions. At the same time, he looked at the Fifth Prince and shouted in a slightly louder voice.
"Speaking of which, I would like to ask Your Highness the Fifth Prince. Is my sister sincere in marrying you? Or are you forcing her to marry you? Who is the one giving an explanation today? "
Xiao Chen's words stunned the Fifth Prince at first. Then, he looked away, not daring to meet Xiao Chen's eyes.
Of course, the Fifth Prince knew in his heart that during this period of time, he had treated Xiao Chen badly. Facing the Fifth Prince's evasive gaze, Xiao Chen smiled coldly. However, at this moment, Chu Wushuang suddenly came to the Fifth Prince's side and patted the Fifth Prince's shoulder lightly. Then, he looked coldly at Xiao Chen and said.
"You can't say that. Let's not talk about Xiao Chen. Regardless of whether she is your sister or not, today is my Fifth Brother's big day. If you do this, where will my Fifth Brother's face go? And now, you want my Fifth Brother to give you an explanation? Xiao Chen, even if you are Chu Wuming's person, you can't be so overbearing, right? "
After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Chen's reply, Chu Wushuang turned to look at the Fifth Prince and said with a smile, "Fifth Brother, don't worry. Today, Second Brother will be your strong backing. No matter who tries to stop you, Second Brother will help you block them. You just need to ask for an explanation."
Chu Wushuang stood up at this moment. His goal was naturally not to seek justice for the Fifth Prince. Instead, he wanted to use this opportunity to deal with Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming. However, the Fifth Prince did not realize this. When he heard Chu Wushuang's words, the Fifth Prince's face was filled with gratitude. Then, he looked arrogantly at Xiao Chen and said.
Originally, Chu Wuming's appearance made the Fifth Prince feel a little guilty. In addition, Xiao Chen's words perfectly explained his previous actions. Originally, the Fifth Prince wanted to retreat. However, now that Chu Wushuang stood up, it undoubtedly gave the Fifth Prince a lot of confidence. After all, Chu Wushuang's influence was not weaker than Chu Wuming's. In fact, it was even stronger.
With a backer, the Fifth Prince naturally felt a lot more confident. He looked at Xiao Chen and shouted coldly.
"Nonsense. This woman is a slave that I bought from a human trafficker. How did she become your sister? Xiao Chen, if you want to deceive people, don't you think that your words are too childish? Today, you must give this Prince an explanation. Otherwise, this Prince will not let you walk out of this door. "
He was completely shameless. He was lying through his teeth. And just as the Fifth Prince finished speaking, hundreds of imperial guards swarmed in from outside the courtyard. These people were the Fifth Prince's personal guards.
Seeing that his army had arrived and with the Second Prince's support, the Fifth Prince became even more fearless.
At the same time, when he saw the Fifth Prince's huge lineup and the sneering Chu Wushuang standing beside him, the expression in Chu Wuming's eyes became somewhat complicated.
Seeing that the Fifth Prince had become full of confidence again and sensing the change in Chu Wuming, Xiao Chen smiled faintly.
"Your Highness, there is no need for you to interfere in this matter. This is a matter that I caused, and I can deal with it myself. There is no need for Your Highness to worry."
He had already guessed that Chu Wuming was weighing the pros and cons. As for what he was weighing, it was obvious. Facing Chu Wushuang and the Fifth Prince at the same time, Chu Wuming was considering whether to continue supporting Xiao Chen. After all, this was clearly a trap set by Chu Wushuang. If Chu Wuming insisted on protecting Xiao Chen, he would probably have to pay a heavy price.
At the crucial moment, Chu Wuming cowered. Xiao Chen did not have any other thoughts about this. This was how people from royal clans were. Their first consideration would always be their own interests.
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Chu Wuming to reply, Xiao Chen glanced at the slightly frightened Xiao Chen behind him and smiled. "Later, follow behind me. Don't worry, with your brother here, no one will be able to hurt you."
After he finished speaking, the storage ring on his hand flashed and the Crimson Edge Sword immediately appeared in his hand. With the sword in hand, Xiao Chen's aura instantly became fierce. He said to the Fifth Prince indifferently, "This sword is my, Xiao Chen's, explanation to you."
