Chapter 407 I Already Have a Candidate (Part )
However, Shen Yanchuan did not give her time to think about it carefully.

The subject then changed and he mentioned what happened in the morning court.

But with just a few words, Ye Chutang could already imagine the tense situation at that time.

"So Lord Xu is really a man of integrity. Even at this point, he refuses to reveal a single thing." Ye Chutang moved his fingers which were gradually warming up, but there was no surprise in his eyes. It was obvious that he had expected this result.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was targeting Huo Yucheng because he was instructed by someone, or it would be more accurate to say that he was motivated by profit.

Now that it has come to this, he is still so tight-lipped.

Shen Yanchuan said calmly: "I'm afraid it's not that I don't want to, but that I don't dare."

Ye Chutang sighed softly: "What a pity."

If Xu Jie is willing to make the accusation personally, he will definitely be able to drag the person behind the scenes into the water, but judging from the current situation, he is unlikely to do so.

"Ten days is not a long time, but it is not a short time either." Ye Chutang casually tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "It is not easy to find out the truth of several years ago in these ten days, but it is more than enough to find a scapegoat."

Having said this, she paused and looked up at the man opposite her.

Shen Yanchuan lowered his eyebrows slightly and raised his hand to pour a cup of hot tea at just the right temperature.

Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows slightly, already having an idea in his mind.

After a moment, she smiled.

"It seems that His Majesty really loves this son."

Shen Yanchuan did not refute.

Ye Chutang lifted the curtain and took a look outside.

The snow was falling harder, the sky and the earth were covered in white, and the streets were empty.

Gradually, the sound of carriage wheels rolling over the thin snow could be heard.

Ye Chutang's expression was indifferent, his black eyes were calm and without ripples.

In fact, she had guessed before, is it true that the person above knew nothing about what that person had done?

Now she can finally be sure of the answer.

In that person's view, his son was just confused and did something wrong.

Although he was angry, he had no intention of punishing him for these things. A small punishment would be enough to silence the gossips.

No wonder that person is so confident.

These alone were still not enough to shake him in the slightest.

Shen Yanchuan looked at her.

He knew that this result was not what she wanted.

After a pause, he said, "In any case, someone will be held responsible for all this in ten days."

Ye Chutang lowered the curtain and turned to look at him.

There was a faint smile on the corner of her lips, but her eyes were clear.

"I know."

She curled her eyes, as if smiling.

"But I have already chosen the most suitable one."

If it goes against their ideas, well – hopefully they like the “surprise”.

……

"I heard that my father got very angry in the court today." Xiao Lanxi sat on a small round stool and carefully looked at Concubine Ru's face. "My second brother has returned home and summoned the imperial physician, saying that he was not feeling well."

Concubine Ru's face was tense.

Of course she already knew all these things, and she asked Xiao Chengxuan to return home immediately.

"That's good. In these troubled times, it's better to have less trouble."

Having said that, her brows were still furrowed, and it was obvious that she had not completely let go of her worries.

Xiao Lanxi comforted him softly, "Mother, don't worry. Second brother has always been in good health and blessed. Even if he has a minor illness, it won't delay him at all. He will definitely get better soon."

When Concubine Ru looked at her, her originally depressed heart relaxed a little.

"Fortunately, I have you."
