After leaving the Yaoguang Hall, Song Jingchen returned to the Yuqian Palace. On the palace path outside the palace, he happened to meet Madam Yu, who had left the palace.

There was a palanquin behind Madam Yu. Song Jingchen retracted his gaze at a glance and stopped to retreat to the side of the road.

“Lord Song.” Madam Yu stopped in front of him.

Song Jingchen cupped his hands. “Consort Jing’an.”

Madam Yu asked, “Did Lord Song really look for His Highness last night to return the token?”

After asking, she seemed to sense that something was wrong. She smiled bitterly and said, “What I mean is that if Lord Song had found His Highness earlier last night, His Highness might not have been in trouble.”

Song Jingchen ignored her question and said gratefully, “So Princess Consort Jing’an also feels that His Highness wasn’t harmed by my wife. I’m relieved.” Madam Yu was speechless.

“Of course I hope it’s not her. Otherwise, His Highness would have been so sad. However, no matter what, I still hope that Lord Song can find the culprit within five days. Otherwise, Madam Song..

Song Jingchen said, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

Madam Yu was speechless.

Song Jingchen didn’t play by the rules at all. Madam Yu knew that it was impossible to get anything out of him, so she wiped her tears and left.

“Consort Jing’an is quite pitiful. In the past, His Highness didn’t return to

Phoenix City much. Now that he suddenly left, His Majesty even wants to keep him in the palace.”

“His Majesty cares too much about His Highness. However, if not for the princess consort’s appearance this time, those ministers probably wouldn’t have been able to convince His Majesty.”

The two eunuchs muttered and walked over. Song Jingchen came back to his senses and looked at the carriage that had walked away. He turned around and walked towards the Yuqian Palace.

“Why? Do you regret it? Or do you want to tell me that five days isn’t enough?” Xuanyuan Qi looked down at him.

Song Jingchen shook his head. “I want to see the servants of the courtyard again. ”

Xuanyuan Qi paused and stared at him for a long time with a dark expression. He took off a token from his waist and threw it on the imperial table.

Eunuch Wu understood. He walked forward, picked up the token, and handed it to Song Jingchen.

The servants of the courtyard were all locked up in prison.

After coming out of the prison, Song Jingchen rubbed his swollen forehead.

“Ah Chen.”

A carriage stopped in front of him. Song Jingchen paused. “Mother, why are you here?”

The corners of Ji Luo’s lips twitched. “I’ve heard about him.”

Looking around, she did not see Shen Yijia. She asked, “Why are you alone? Where’s Jiajia?”

“Jiajia is still in the palace.” Afraid that she would be worried, Song Jingchen was about to explain when the curtain of the carriage lifted and Xuanyuan Ziming stuck his head out.

“The palace is my territory. Don’t worry, I’ll protect Sister-in-law.”

After Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen were taken away by the imperial guards, Ji Luo immediately brought MO Yuan to look for Xuanyuan Ce. Unexpectedly, the courtyard in Goldfish Alley was empty. They went to the lord’s residence to ask around, but those servants refused to say anything.

Ji Luo had no choice but to look for him.

At that moment, Xuanyuan Ziming had just received the news that something had happened to Xuanyuan Ce. When he found out that the couple had been taken away by the Imperial Guards, he prepared to bring Ji Luo into the palace.

Song Jingchen said, “Jiajia is fine.”

Xuanyuan Ziming’s promise didn’t rea.s.sure Ji Luo, but Song Jingchen’s words made her temporarily suppress the thought of entering the palace to save her.

Why did he use the word “save”? It was because Ji Luo knew that unless he had no choice, it was impossible for Song Jingchen to leave Jiajia alone in the palace.

“Let’s go back first,” she said.

When they returned home, Song Jingchen told them everything that had happened in the palace.

After not hearing Ji Luo speak for a long time, Song Jingchen looked up and realized that she was in a daze.

“Xuanyuan Ce, this b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he didn’t do anything when he was alive. Now that he’s dead, he even implicated my daughter.” She suddenly cursed softly.

Song Jingchen swallowed his comforting words and heard her ask, “Did you find anything when you went to see the servants in the courtyard?”

Song Jingchen frowned. “There’s indeed something wrong.”

Actually, those people’s words were similar to what they had said in front of the emperor, but Song Jingchen still discovered a problem.

The guard said that after Lord Jing’an found out that Song Jingchen had gone to look for him, he did not say anything!

Ji Luo frowned.

Thirty Thousand blurted out, “That’s not right. If I find out that someone came to look for me in the middle of the night, I’ll definitely wonder if he has something urgent to do. Even if I don’t go back to look for him, I’ll leave a message for the gatekeeper. For example, if that person comes again, I’ll bring him in directly.”

Song Jingchen nodded. “That’s right, but His Highness didn’t say anything..”
