I quit the sect and became a demon cultivator. Master and Sister kneel down to beg for forgiveness.

Chapter 54 The prince is innocent, everyone goes back to their homes!

Li Changqing stood there, as if he was stupid.

Some of the older clan members in the Zongzheng Mansion opened their mouths in astonishment, "Jiang Sheng? Is he still alive?"

Twenty years ago, he managed to escape the massacre that was as severe as a dragnet?

Jiang Xingzhou? Grandpa?

Li Changqing's mind went blank. The sudden appearance of his relatives caught him off guard. "Do I still have relatives alive?"

Jiang Xingzhou watched the dumbstruck Li Zhangqing walk over, and seemed to see the shadow of Jiang Yao in his eyes.

He was overwhelmed with grief, his eyes reddened, and he choked up and said, "Child, I am your grandfather!"

The kinship that was embedded in the blood made Li Changqing conclude that the person in front of him was undoubtedly his grandfather.

This kind of intimacy can never be replaced by others.

"Grandpa!"

Li Changqing shouted softly with a hoarse voice, perhaps only when facing the closest relatives can one show his vulnerable side.

Thinking back to the past twenty years, he practiced, fought bloody battles for the Divine King Sect, was framed, and expelled from the sect.

Then he entered the turbulent and treacherous capital of God, where there were murderous intentions everywhere and people were plotting against him at any time. He almost died here today.

Li Changqing relied on his courage and domineering reputation as the Sixth Prince in the capital, but he was very tired and felt like he was walking on thin ice.

"Hey, child!"

Jiang Xingzhou could no longer hold back, and hugged Li Changqing in his arms, crying bitterly.

"Twenty years, kid, you've suffered!"

"Grandpa, I'm fine. In this world, I will repay anyone who has made me suffer tenfold or a hundredfold!"

Li Changqing used the gentlest tone to speak the most domineering words.

"Good, good grandson, just like your mother!"

Jiang Xingzhou was overjoyed after hearing this and patted his shoulder vigorously, "Now that grandpa is back, I wonder who can bully you!"

After saying this, he looked around at the royal relatives and finally set his eyes on Li Changping.

Everyone in the hall lowered their heads.

All the members of the Jiang family who had participated in the killing of Concubine Xuan's party, either personally or through their fathers, showed fear when they saw Jiang Xingzhou returning to the capital.

As early as twenty years ago, Jiang Xingzhou was already a saint, and now his cultivation has reached the peak of the Great Sage, making him a half-step emperor.

"My daughter was forced to death by you. Twenty years have passed, and you still dare to humiliate her reputation. Do you really think that my Jiang family is dead?"

Jiang Xingzhou roared and swung his sleeves. Li Changping flew out and fell heavily to the ground.

"If I hear you speak disrespectfully to my daughter again, I will destroy your entire cultivation. Let's see how arrogant you can be!"

Li Changping was shocked by the aura of the Great Sage and vomited blood. He struggled to stand up and looked at Jiang Xingzhou who was emitting a malicious light.

Jiang Xingzhou delivered this palm strike with twenty years of resentment. If he had used a little more force, she would have died on the spot!

"Your daughter's death has nothing to do with me, Jiang Sheng. You just returned to the Divine Capital and you're already using this princess as an excuse. You're so arrogant!"

Although her words were harsh, she couldn't help but take a few steps back.

In the whole world, there are no more than two dozen people who have reached the realm of Great Emperor. At the peak of Great Sage, they are invincible under the Great Emperor!

How dare she, a little saint, confront him head-on!

Even if it was the emperor's biological sister, the princess consort of the prince from Zhenbei, she still wouldn't dare!

In the current situation, even Li Changping doesn't dare to touch Jiang Xingzhou's edge, so who would dare to do so again?

Li Mo felt a surge of anger in his heart. Li Changqing was already domineering enough, and now here comes a grandfather who is even more domineering than him and is at the peak of the Great Sage level.

"Li Biao, let's go!"

There was no need for him to stay here any longer. With his foul mouth, if he accidentally said something he shouldn't, he would be beaten half to death.

In front of the Great Sage, even if you are a prince, you are nothing!

Unless the emperor takes action personally, few people in the entire Qin Empire, let alone the Divine Capital, can be Jiang Xingzhou's match.

Li Mo left dejectedly, hatred seemed to overflow from his entire face.

Jiang Xingzhou took a step forward and shouted, "I heard you're trying my grandson. Is that true?"

Li Changping's breathing was disordered after being beaten. Suppressing his humiliation, he said in a deep voice, "It involves the life of the young Marquis of Yongwu. I'm just bringing him here for questioning!"

"I've already said that my grandson's death has nothing to do with Li Changqing. Don't mention it again!"

Chen Changhe responded domineeringly, turning to Jiang Xingzhou, "It's been twenty years since we last met, and Jiang Sheng is even better than before!"

Jiang Xingzhou nodded amiably. Although Chen Changhe had not supported Jiang Yao in the past, he had not plotted against him either.

After all, he is a man who came from the battlefield. He disdains petty intrigues and even does not want to participate in the chaos in the capital of God, so he goes on an expedition abroad.

"In that case, I will take my grandson and leave!"

Jiang Xingzhou pulled Li Changqing up and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, Jiang Sheng, this is the Imperial Clan of the Great Zhou after all. We must follow the procedures to confirm innocence and record it. If you leave so hastily, where will the dignity of our Imperial Clan be?"

Li Changping still wanted to regain his last bit of face.

"With a vicious woman like you in charge of the Zongzheng Mansion, what dignity do we still have? I want to take her away, do you dare to stop me?"

Jiang Xingzhou raised his hand and slapped again.

Boom!

Inside the Zongzheng Mansion, a blurry shadow emerged, shocking Jiang Xingzhou back a step. "So it's Jiang Sheng who has returned to the Divine Capital. No wonder I saw a powerful figure descending from the sky above the Divine Capital!"

"It's been twenty years since we last met. How is Jiang Sheng?"

The moment they saw the shadow, everyone in the Zongzheng Mansion knelt down, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

"Everyone get up!"

This phantom is Li Zhan. Sensing the aura of the peak Great Sage, he cast a phantom towards him.

When everyone heard this, they stood up and stood with their hands hanging down.

Jiang Xingzhou didn't regard him as the emperor. In fact, he was still his son-in-law. "Thanks to the emperor, I'm still alive!"

Li Zhan chuckled awkwardly and glanced at Li Changqing out of the corner of his eye. This was the first time he had seen his son.

From beginning to end, Li Changqing never knelt down. Li Zhan couldn't help but feel in his heart that he really had the character of Jiang Yao.

"Saint Jiang, since you are in the Divine Capital, please come into the palace and have a rest. I haven't seen you for twenty years, and I miss you very much!"

"Hmph, I'm afraid the Emperor is worried about whether I'm still alive!"

Jiang Xingzhou snorted, "In that case, I'll go into the palace with you to have a chat and see if those old people in the palace are still alive and well!"

After saying that, his figure flashed and disappeared.

Li Changqing felt a sense of disappointment in his heart, but then returned to normal. The current emperor was only his nominal father.

Has he ever supported himself for a day?

Li Zhan never said a word to Li Changqing, and Li Changqing didn't even respond to him, disdaining the basic principles of ruler and subject.

The courtroom remained as silent as death even after Li Zhan and Jiang Xingzhou left.

Everyone knows what Jiang Xingzhou's return to the capital means!

The Sixth Prince, who originally had no power and was ranked last in terms of age and strength, may have to reshuffle the powerful people in the Divine City after Jiang Xingzhou's arrival.

Li Changping's eyes were rather dull, he smiled bitterly, and fell into endless silence.

Cui Hao was as silent as her. Life and death were no longer important to him, as if they were lifeless dust in the years.

Only Liang Jing was uneasy. She didn't know what she was about to face and was filled with fear of her fate.

A moment later, Jiang Xingzhou did not come back, but Li Zhan's personal eunuch Zhao Wuji came with Li Zhan's imperial edict.

"Liang Jing, the daughter of Liang Ziyi, Vice Dean of Yingtian Academy, and Cui Hao, a Captain of the Demon Suppression Division, have a private affair that has insulted the imperial family. Effective immediately, they will be demoted to commoners and expelled from the Divine Capital!"

"Chen Qian, grandson of Marquis of Bravery Chen Changhe, was not murdered by Sixth Prince Li Changqing after investigation. He is innocent. Chen Qian's death will be investigated separately after the meeting on the tower!"

When everyone received the order, Liang Jing's head buzzed and he almost fainted. Demoted to a commoner and expelled from the capital?

So where should she go?

"Eunuch Zhao, my father hasn't been implicated, right?"

Liang Jing sat on the ground. The harsh beatings of fate had made her disheartened and she didn't have much hope.

Once I leave, I will wander around the world and spend the rest of my life.

"Hehe, Miss Liang, the emperor has issued an order, and you dare to mess around behind the prince's back. How can Lord Liang not be implicated by you?"

Zhao Wuji sneered, "I've already issued an order to remove Liang Ziyi from his position as Vice Dean and demote him to an ordinary deacon!"

After saying that, he walked up to Li Changqing.

"Sixth Prince, you are exhausted today. The Emperor was busy with state affairs and was unable to see you. As father and son, please do not be estranged or resentful. When the time is right, he will naturally summon you!"

Zhao Wuji soothed him, "Go back home and rest. The meeting on the tower is coming soon, and we still want to see the Sixth Prince in all his glory!"

Li Changqing nodded slightly, turned and left.

To this father, what difference does it make whether he sees his mother or not? He even disdains to go to a place that cannot accommodate his mother.

When we returned to the palace, the guests had not yet left.

Liu Changle saw that his master had returned safely, and tears welled up in his eyes with excitement. "Your Highness, you are back?"

Li Changqing nodded. "Did you treat the guests well?"

He glanced at the guests in the courtyard, all of whom were stewards from the mansions of the powerful and wealthy in the capital!
