    Although the good news had already been reported, there were some things that had to be confirmed personally.


    “I heard that… the saint army has already surrendered and was killed by the Regent. Is there such a thing?” The Emperor’s stroke had notpletely recovered. He spoke slowly and if one listened carefully, they would feel that he could not speak clearly.


    Xiao Zhenting did not look strange. He said seriously, “Your Majesty, the surrender of the saint army is an excuse. In fact, they want us to lower our vignce. They circled behind us and ambushed our camp, even seriously injuring the Regent Consort. The Regent Consort has yet to wake up. The Regent ordered the attack out of consideration for military strategy.”


    “Is that so?” The Emperor’s oppressive gazended on the remaining dozen or so generals. “Is Yan Jiuchao really fighting the Sacred n, not ughtering them to vent his anger?” “Yes, Your Majesty!”


    Everyone was in agreement.


    Seeing that he could not ask anything, the Emperor waved his hand and let the generals leave. “Xiao Zhenting, stay. I still have something to tell you.”


    The Emperor wanted to talk to Xiao Zhenting about Yan Huaijing. The news of Yan Huaijing colluding with the Sacred n had long spread. The Emperor wanted to hear Xiao Zhenting’s opinion.


    What opinion could Xiao Zhenting have? If this was his son, he would have dragged him out and beaten him to death a hundred times. Although Yan Huaijing was also used by the Sacred n, if he didn’t want to get rid of Yan Jiuchao, how could he have fallen into the trap of the Sacred n?


    If Yan Jiuchao was a traitor whomitted all kinds of crimes, Yan Huaijing’s motives could barely make sense. The problem was, did Yan Jiuchao do anything outrageous?


    Beat up Yan Huaijing? You f*cking snatched his woman during his wedding, and you don’t allow him to beat you up? That’s not how logic works!


    However, Xiao Zhenting also understood that the reason why the Emperor asked him was not because he really wanted to hear his opinion. He only hoped that he could dissuade the Emperor. After all, he was the Grand Marshal of the world and the greatest contributor to this battle other than Yan Jiuchao. He had absolute say.


    But would he persuade the Emperor to punish Yan Huaijing leniently? “Your Majesty, the Crown Prince should offer his life as penance!”


    The Emperor almost had a stroke again. Of course, the Emperor understood that Yan Huaijing hadmitted a huge crime, but he was a prince after all. How could he really kill him? The Emperor felt that it was a mistake for him to keep Xiao Zhenting. He was also stubborn.


    “Alright, alright, you can leave!” The Emperor hurriedly chased Xiao Zhenting away.


    In the end, Yan Huaijing was still deposed as the Crown Prince. Even Prime Minister Han was forced to “return to his hometown”. Yan Huaijing was exiled to the bitter cold ce in North City.


    The Emperor did not vent his anger on Han Jingshu and allowed her to stay in the capital. However, the child in her stomach could no longer be listed in the royal family’s genealogy. She was no longer the Crown Princess Consort or the Princely Consort, but Mrs. Yan, who had Yan Huaijing’s surname.


    Han Jingshu reported to the Emperor and allowed her to travel with Yan Huaijing.


    Outside the Crown Prince Manor, Jun Chang’an stopped her carriage. “Why… Why didn’t you stay in the capital? Do you know that once you go to North City, you won’t be able to return?”


    Han Jingshu’s stomach was already showing. She touched her stomach and said, “I’ll go wherever the child’s father goes.”


    Jun Chang’an said, “Don’t go! If you’re worried about the child, I… I’ll take care of you!”


    Han Jingshu smiled gently. “Thank you. Goodbye.”


    After Yu Wan’s wound healed, Yan Jiuchao brought her back to Yan City.


    Everything in Prince Yan Manor was the same. Even the chessboard on the tea table in the small garden had not been moved.


    Everyone knew that Young Master and Young Madam had returned. They were looking forward to seeing Young Madam, but Young Madam was a sleeping beauty who needed to sit in a wheelchair all year round without moving.


    Yan City was like spring all year round. The snow in the capital was already two to three feet thick, but Prince Yan Manor was filled with colorful butterflies and spring.


    Yan Jiuchao carried Yu Wan and sat on a rattan chair in the small garden. The wind was gentle and the sun was shining brightly.


    Yu Wan was wearing ake-blue dress with a waist. It was not easy for her to gain weight during her pregnancy, but she had already lost weight. The dress she madest month had already be bigger this month.


    A breeze blew past, blowing Yu Wan’s ck hair. A strandnded on the tip of her nose.


    Yan Jiuchao gently took down the strand of hair and wrapped her in his arms. He looked around and whispered into her ear, “This is where I grew up. Didn’t you say you wanted toe and take a look?”


    He pointed to a small wooden hut ahead. “Then do you see that pavilion? There’s a small wooden hut behind the pavilion. It was originally used to raise dogs. There are several dog houses inside. When I was young, I would climb into a dog house when I had nothing to do… Well… that’s right… I’m very thin, so I could climb in. Then they would look for me, but no one ever found me. Do you know why? Because they couldn’t believe that the young master of Yan City would actually hide in a dog house..”
