Actually, the appearance of Zhao Changhe wasn't a big deal; a bunch of men appeared on his side too, familial and friendly bonds equally lead to hesitance affecting combat.
Thinking about it seriously, there's nothing strange... The original relationship was antagonistic like "to kill Piaomiao to save my wife," but Zhao Changhe always felt she was a good person, hesitated, and didn't intend to kill. This means no illusions are needed; whether he hesitates has already been proven in reality.
What has already been proven, why bother?
But the problem now is, Piaomiao also showed Zhao Changhe.
Where's that "no one makes me hesitate"? Over two epochs, how many faces has she seen, and the ones who can make her hesitate are only Cui Yuanyang and Zhao Changhe... It isn't too much boasting, but it makes these two especially prominent.
