Good heavens! The Supreme God is being relentlessly harassed!

A flash of surprise crossed Shen Qingcheng's eyes when he saw Shen Wangchuan, then, as if remembering something, he gripped Shen Wangchuan's arm tightly, his voice trembling with excitement:

"Now that you've arrived, has the Regent also returned to the capital?"

Shen Wangchuan put his finger to his lips, "Shh~ Dad, is there any need to say that? I've always been by Ayan's side."

Shen Qingcheng calmed himself down and coughed lightly:

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!!" Now let's see how arrogant Zuo Zhilin can be. Those who covet the country will never have a good ending.

He was initially quite uneasy about leaving his youngest son with Regent Xie Liuyan, but now that the Shen family is in dire straits, Shen Wangchuan's connection with Xie Liuyan has proven invaluable.

Just thinking about the letter Xu Suiyuan sent him by carrier pigeon made Shen Qingcheng feel uneasy, and he didn't know how to reply to his old friend.

Looking at Shen Wangchuan, who was grinning carefree, he could only sigh in his heart: fortune and misfortune are intertwined.

It’s hard to say!

The group reminisced for a while, realizing it had been quite some time since they had last seen each other. The eldest and second eldest brothers of the Shen family also missed Shen Wangchuan very much.

Although his younger brother is not good enough, with them around, Shen Wangchuan can live a life of leisure without any problem.

After chatting for a while, Shen Wangchuan brought up the purpose of his visit:

“Father, eldest brother, second brother, Zuo Zhilin’s wolfish ambitions can no longer be hidden. I came to the Shen residence this time to tell you that Ayan has returned to the capital.”

"As for the second point, it is to discuss a grand plan to deal with Zuo Zhilin."

The candles in the Shen residence burned late into the night before finally going out. Shen Wangchuan then said that he had some matters to attend to at the Prince's residence and would not be staying overnight.

Shen Qingcheng was both amused and exasperated. Was this what they meant by a married son being like water spilled from a bowl?

But at least after tonight, he felt much less burdened.

Before leaving, Shen Wangchuan didn't forget to give him a few words of advice: "Try to control your temper in the meantime, and I hope you know what to do."

"Okay, Dad. You should get some rest. I'm off."

After saying that, Shen Wangchuan walked out the door, then leaped onto the eaves of the wall with a few flips, using his lightness skill to disappear into the night in the blink of an eye.

The night watchman on the street had already struck the third time, and the Prince's mansion was now completely silent.

Xie Liuyan thought that since Shen Wangchuan rarely returned to the Shen family mansion, he should at least catch up with his father, mother, and brother and talk about what had happened these past few days.

So no one expected that the other party would come back to the palace tonight.

After finishing his work, he went to wash up and then lay down on the bed.

When he had a leg ailment, he felt the bed was too big, but now that he has recovered, he feels the bed is too small, as if something is missing, making it difficult for him to sleep.

However, because he was too tired during the day and his body was in the recovery period, Xie Liuyan fell asleep quickly.

The even breathing made Shen Wangchuan, who gently pushed the door open to enter, reluctant to interrupt.

He used to hold Ayan while she slept, but now that he wasn't home at night, he thought she might be having trouble adjusting. However, she fell asleep quite quickly.

After taking off his night clothes and changing into his sleeping clothes, Shen Wangchuan quietly climbed into bed.

He first covered himself with the blanket by the bed to get rid of the cold air, since it was late at night and the dew was heavy, and his body was inevitably a little cold after going back and forth.

As his body temperature gradually rose, Shen Wangchuan rolled from one side of the blanket to the other side where Xie Liuyan was.

He skillfully wrapped his arm around the other's waist; at that moment, his face was only inches away from Xie Liuyan's.

He casually asked for a goodnight kiss, and Shen Wangchuan gave the other person a quick peck. Sure enough, sleeping Ayan was the best.

Even a dormant system like 0526, which monitors the main god in real time, is a bit hard to look at. This kid knows how to take advantage of others.

They're almost ready to go to sleep and rest, and they still won't stop.

Forget it, it manually turned off the system's real-time monitoring, deciding not to look into Shen Wangchuan's habit of taking advantage of the main god while he was sleeping.

Xie Liuyan, who was originally fast asleep, frowned slightly. When Shen Wangchuan put his arm around his waist, he seemed to feel a familiar presence. His frown relaxed, and he slept soundly through the night.

The next day, Xie Liuyan was somewhat surprised to see Shen Wangchuan's face next to her pillow, who looked like he was fast asleep.

I don't even know what time they got back last night.

The morning sun shone on the streets, and the servants of the Prince's mansion went about their duties. Now that the Prince had returned, every task, from sweeping the courtyard to cleaning, had to be done.

The servants' faces beamed with smiles; the prince had not only returned safely, but had also recovered his leg.

If it weren't for the housekeeper's recent strict prohibition against making too much noise, they would have loved to set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Although the prince usually appears dignified, he is extremely kind to his servants and never overly harsh on them, which is why he is loved and respected by them.

This is the scene inside the Prince's mansion. Outside the mansion, the gates are tightly closed, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter without the Prince's invitation.

But today was an exception; someone was knocking on the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

The servants, following the steward's instructions, were to ignore anyone who tried to find out inside information about the Prince's residence.

When he opened the gate a crack, he saw that the other person was wrapped up very tightly, with only a pair of eyes showing. He looked like someone sent by a mysterious organization.

"You... who are you? What brings you to the Prince's residence?"

The other party didn't speak, but simply took out a waist tag with the word "thank you" engraved on it.

The servant's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly welcomed the person in while closing the gates of the Prince's mansion.

When the other party stepped into the Prince's residence, he bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Commander Xie! I was blind before, and I hope you will forgive me."

Since Xie Liuyan left the capital, Xie Yi has not come to the Prince's Mansion again. After all, he has a heavy responsibility, and the Xuan Tie Army is the key to deciding the outcome of this battle.

At this moment, he removed his disguise, revealing Xie Yi clad in black iron armor, exuding a more menacing aura than before.

After the prince left, he trained the army day and night. The Xuan Tie Army was now completely different from what it used to be, and was ready to charge into battle for the prince at any time, just waiting for the prince's order.

The servants thought to themselves, "It's been a long time since we last met, and Commander Xie seems to have become much more ferocious."

Xie waved his hand: "It's alright. Where is the Prince? I've come to see him!"

The servant hurriedly replied, "His Highness should still be washing up. Commander Xie, please wait a moment in the study. I will go and inform His Highness."

Xie Yi nodded slightly: "Yes, no need to lead the way, I can go to the study by myself."

Meanwhile, a servant hurried to the prince's bedroom and knocked on the door:

"Your Highness, Commander Xie has arrived and is waiting for you to receive him in the study."

In the bedroom, Xie Liuyan should have finished washing up long ago and then gone to the study to handle matters.

But when he wanted to get up, someone insisted on pulling him away.

Looking at Shen Wangchuan, who was still clinging to his waist and pretending to be asleep with his eyelashes fluttering, Xie Liuyan felt helpless, but still replied to the servant outside the door:

"Understood. Tell Xie Yi to wait a moment. I'll be there shortly!"

The servant received the message and ran to the study to deliver it. Xie Liuyan began to deal with the big problem of Shen Wangchuan.

"If you keep pretending to be asleep, you'll be sleeping on the outer bed tonight!"

Shen Wangchuan thought to himself, "I went through so much trouble to move in, how can I move out again?"

He opened his eyes "slowly," his voice still groggy: "Ayan, what do you mean by pretending to be asleep? I just woke up. Ugh...did someone come by earlier?"

His skills at pretending to be asleep were lacking, but his acting skills were top-notch.

Xie Liuyan raised an eyebrow, pried off the hand that was wrapped around his waist, and said in a dangerous tone, "Don't let this happen again, or I'll have the servants make room for you in the next room."

No matter how much Shen Wangchuan pretends, the person who should see it most won't see it.
