His brother was so straightforward and pure. Xiao Changying knew clearly that there was no possibility between him and her, but he still couldn't let it go completely. He couldn't bear to see her in danger, and couldn't let go of the person who hurt her.
Xiao Changqing raised his head, looked at the quiet blue sky, and sighed softly.
He married the love of his life, but still couldn't escape the trick of fate; they were not destined to be together after all.
Xiao Changying couldn't marry her, maybe he couldn't let it go now, but when that day comes when he feels disappointed, he will be relieved.
The reason for letting Xiao Changying go was that he didn't want him to feel regretful, worried and blame himself in the future. He also hoped that when the prince ascended the throne in the future, he would treat Xiao Changying well because they had never been enemies.
As an older brother, this is all he can do for his younger brother.
"Princess, we have tracked down the whereabouts of the Fourth Prince." Mo Yuan hurried back to report.
"Capture him alive." Shen Xihe ordered, "Go openly!"
She suspected that Xiao Changtai had kidnapped her sister, so she sent people to capture him, and His Majesty could not find any fault.
"Yes." Mo Yuan accepted the order and was about to go out when he saw Xiao Huayong coming towards him. He hurriedly saluted.
Seeing him raise his hand in vain, Xiao Huayong said, "General Mo has been busy all day, why not take a rest for a while."
Mo Yuan looked at him, then at Shen Xihe. Shen Xihe glanced past Xiao Huayong before nodding to Mo Yuan.
Mo Yuan bowed silently and retreated.
"Has something happened to the Fourth Prince?" Shen Xihe asked.
"Your Majesty has sent people, and I have someone lead them. The fourth brother used Madam Shen Er to threaten the second brother to help, and their people will inevitably fight against His Majesty's people. We have sent people, so even if we catch them, they will not fall into your and my hands." Xiao Huayong said.
"What if we let him run away?" Shen Xihe asked again.
"He ran away?" Xiao Huayong smiled slightly. "Where did he go? Someone from the Imperial Mausoleum has reported that he fled privately. Your Majesty will have guessed who Li met. The mastermind of the tomb robbery has been revealed. If he returns to the Imperial Mausoleum, he will die."
In order to avoid Xiao Changtai's attention, Xiao Huayong did not search the Qian Mansion. If Xiao Changtai was alarmed, he would not meet with Li Yanyan in the Qian Mansion even if he went to Beijing. He missed a secret passage and let Xiao Changtai escape. He could not be charged with adultery, but it was enough to expose him as the mastermind of the tomb robbery.
"The Princess of Huaiyang County has not been found yet." Shen Xihe was worried about Shen Yingruo, after all, her last name was Shen.
"Don't worry." Xiao Huayong comforted, "He dare not harm Second Madam Shen. Before meeting Li Yanyan, he did not know the whereabouts of Ye. At this moment, Ye has been released and is locked up in a hunter's home outside the capital. The hunter happened to be out hunting in the mountains these days and was not at home. He was alone, so Li found a great place.
Ye Shi now doesn't know who kidnapped her. Ye Shi returned home safely. If Xiao Changtai escapes, he will understand that if something happens to Second Madam Shen, you may not vent your anger on Ye Shi, but Second Madam will definitely do so."
For Ye Wantang, Xiao Changtai cannot hurt Shen Yingruo in any way.
That's right. Sending people to intercept Xiao Changtai now will only expose their power. After all, His Majesty has sent people to intervene in this matter. It is better to wait and see what happens and wait for follow-up.
