Chapter 357 Forgiveness (st update)
The group of people realized something was wrong and looked at each other in shock.

How long had it been since you left? Why was Miss Ye Er so criticized?

Those words are too vicious!

And what about "forcing my aunt to death"?
For a while, no one dared to speak.

Shen Yanchuan lowered the curtain: "Enter the palace."

"Yes."

Several people hurriedly responded and continued towards the palace gate.

But the atmosphere is completely different from when I first returned to Beijing.

Shen Yanchuan sat in the carriage, his eyes fixed, deep in thought.

He came back some time later than Ye Chutang, but it wasn't too long, only more than half a month.

But in such a short period of time, something happened.

After they separated from her in Shiluan City, Shen Yanchuan ordered the Black Riding Guards to secretly escort Ye Chutang back to the capital and evacuate immediately.

At that time, he thought that since there were so many people in the capital and there were fewer people following him, she would have less trouble.

Who knew that a momentary oversight——

Shen Yanchuan recalled the words of those people over and over again and almost guessed what happened, but this was obviously impossible.

Ye Chutang would never force the Gao family to death, especially at this time, Ye Heng was exiled, Ye Mingze was dead, and the Gao family was just a grasshopper after autumn, unable to jump around for a few days.

She poses no threat to Ye Chutang, and Ye Chutang probably doesn't bother to waste time and energy on her.

But now that the rumor is like this...she must be in trouble.

Shen Yanchuan entered the palace gate and walked along the palace road to Tai Chi Hall.

Eunuch Li greeted him with a smile: "Oh, Prince! You are back! Your Majesty has been looking forward to it day and night. As soon as he heard that you were back, he has been waiting for you since the morning!"

Shen Yanchuan was about to speak when he suddenly saw a kneeling figure in front of him.

The man's back was turned to him and he was kneeling upright in front of the gate of Tai Chi Hall.

Shen Yanchuan's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly: "Is that...His Royal Highness King Qi? His ban has been lifted?"

Eunuch Li followed and looked over, his expression changed, and he whispered: "That's not the case yet. It's just that His Highness King Qi has written letters one after another to admit his mistake. Your Majesty has allowed him to kneel here for an hour every day since the day before yesterday."

Shen Yanchuan's thin lips curved in a hint of sarcasm.

You can leave your own mansion, but you are told that the confinement has not been lifted?

Kneeling here, in full view of everyone, has Xiao Chengxuan changed his gender?
With his past temper, how could he be willing to do such a shameful thing?
What did Shen Yanchuan think of: "By the way, I heard that King Lie has returned to Beijing?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, just as you left the capital, His Highness King Lie made a triumphant return. It's really an unlucky coincidence." Eunuch Li said with a smile, "Now that you are back, you can meet His Highness King Lie."

really.

Xiao Chengqi's glorious return to Beijing probably caused a lot of psychological pressure on Xiao Chengxuan. If he continued to lie down in his mansion, everything would be lost.

Shen Yanchuan walked over.

Eunuch Li stepped forward and announced: "Your Majesty, the prince wants to see you!"

Xiao Chengxuan, who was kneeling in front of the door, heard the movement and turned around first.

Shen Yanchuan must have entered the palace as soon as he came back. He looked dusty, but his appearance was really outstanding. After traveling for more than a month, he didn't look tired at all. On the contrary, he looked even more handsome, tall, and tall.

Shen Yanchuan pretended not to see the hostility in his eyes and responded calmly.

"Your Highness, long time no see. How are you?"

Xiao Chengxuan felt secretly annoyed when he saw him, and even the words he spoke were strange.

"Nowhere. It's so hard compared to the prince traveling thousands of miles."

Shen Yanchuan smiled and said: "I left as ordered. I dare not say anything about my hardships. I am just doing my duty as a minister."

"you!"

Xiao Chengxuan couldn't defeat him, and accidentally dug a hole for himself again, so he finally closed his mouth unwillingly.

Emperor Mu Wu's voice came from inside: "Let him come in."

Shen Yanchuan nodded and entered the Tai Chi Hall.

Emperor Mu Wu was sitting behind the imperial court, looking through the documents.

Hearing the noise, he put down the things in his hands and said with a smile: "I thought you would not come back for a while, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon. How about it, the investigation went smoothly?"

Naturally, he didn't expect that Shen Yanchuan would come back so early simply because someone had already returned to Beijing first. Shen Yanchuan saluted and then said: "I have found something interesting here."

Emperor Mu Wu looked solemn.

"You said."

……

"...the above are the results of Wei Chen's investigation this time."

As Shen Yanchuan spoke, he took out an envelope from his sleeve and presented it with both hands.

"All the evidence is here, please His Majesty's Holy Judgment."

Eunuch Li hurriedly forwarded and delivered it to the imperial case.

Emperor Mu Wu's eyes stayed on the envelope which was not too thin for a long time, his eyes were cold and his brows were full of majesty.

However, he did not reach out and open it.

"I understand."

Shen Yanchuan's heart moved and he looked up.

But just for a moment, he lowered his gaze again and said nothing.

There was silence in the room, and the air seemed to have stopped flowing.

After an unknown period of time, Emperor Mu Wu let out a long sigh.

"You have worked hard this time. Go back and rest first. I will reward you well later."

Shen Yanchuan frowned slightly.

But he said nothing and only bowed.

"I obey your Majesty's orders."

When he was about to turn around and leave, he heard another sentence coming from behind him:
"Let the second child go back too! The day after tomorrow is his mother's birthday, what will it be like if he is detained in the house again."

……

The door was closed, blocking out all sounds inside.

Xiao Chengxuan stretched out his ears, trying hard to hear something, but in vain.

Finally he gave up and continued to kneel in front of the door.

After an unknown amount of time, the door finally opened with a "squeak" sound.

Shen Yanchuan walked out.

Also coming out was Eunuch Li.

He raised the fly whisk and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, King Qi, Your Majesty has just issued an oral order. From today on, you will be relieved!"

A smile slowly appeared on Xiao Chengxuan's face.

He put his hands on the ground and bowed.

"My son, thank you very much for your forgiveness! Long live my father!"

Shen Yanchuan didn't seem to be interested in any of this. He didn't stop and was about to pass by.

However, after taking a few steps, Xiao Chengxuan called out: "Shen Yanchuan."

Shen Yanchuan turned around with a calm expression: "Is there anything else, Your Highness?"

Xiao Chengxuan stood up, dusted off his clothes, and then slowly came to Shen Yanchuan.

He glanced towards Tai Chi Hall, lowered his voice, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Why, you seem disappointed to see that I have been released from the ban?"

He stared at Shen Yanchuan, not missing any subtle expression on his face.

However, what disappointed him was that instead of being puzzled or angry, Shen Yanchuan smiled slightly.

"This is a good thing. Why would His Highness miss me so much?"

Xiao Chengxuan punched Mian Qian with a confused expression on his face: "Don't think it's great to send you out to investigate a case this time! You -"

"how could be."

Shen Yanchuan smiled carelessly,
"The fact that you are able to come out makes me more than just a noble concubine. I believe that Concubine Rong and His Highness the Third Prince will definitely be happy for you if they know about it."

Xiao Chengxuan's expression suddenly changed!
