Ten days later, the two battles were in a stalemate, and during these ten days, Emperor Yangcheng could no longer wait for the end of the battle. After a sunset set, the emperor let go and passed away. This battle ended with the death of the old emperor.

After the old emperor died, Wei Hechu ascended the throne as soon as possible. On the first day he ascended the throne, he signed an agreement with Shen Muchen. The two parties intended to turn war into jade to stop the war.

After the matter was over, Shen Muchen returned to the Imperial City with a million troops. He rushed along the way, feeling very anxious. He had been fighting for so long, but there was no letter from the palace, and there was no news of her in the palace.

With the intention of caring for a wife and children, I entered the Imperial Palace in the Imperial City without stopping.

There were many people in the palace to greet him, but he had no intention of caring about the people around him. In the crowd, Shen Muchen looked for Li Wanli's figure. No, without her, she was not among the crowd! At this time, a pair of hands brushed by his side, and looked back expectantly, it was Chu Qingyan.

"Qingyan congratulates His Highness on his return from a great victory." Chu Qingyan smiled and took the initiative to greet Shen Muchen's arm, calling him His Highness.

Shen Mu Chen frowned and turned his head, and grabbed Chu Qingyan's neck in front of everyone. He put a cold air in his arms around Chu Qingyan's ears, lowered his voice and shouted at her, "Who told you!"

No one knew about this matter except Chu Hongyang and Shen Muchen's close confidants, and they had no choice but to pass the matter into the palace. Chu Qingyan actually knew about it. Shen Muchen lost his patience and roared again, "Say!"

Chu Qingyan had an idea, looked pitiful, and asked pretending to be stupid, "What does Qingyan know? Qingyan didn't know why Dongying misinformed the news that Your Highness is still alive, but Qingyan grew up with Your Highness since she was a child, so how could she admit her mistake?"

This statement is indeed fine. Shen Muchen is unwilling to talk nonsense with her. Now he just wants to see Wan Li.

"This matter will naturally settle the score with you in the future!"

Looking around again, Shen Mu Chen felt something was wrong. Many people should have reported the news about his return a few days ago. If so, Li Wanli would have stood in front of the city gate early to greet him, right?

Shin Muchen looked at her angry and said, "Can you see the imperial concubine?"

Chu Qingyan knew what would happen after Shen Muchen knew the truth, so she showed an expression of wanting to say but stop.

"Your Highness, actually... Empress, she..." Chu Qingyan took off for a long time and showed Shen Muchen's glare, "She..."

"Get out" Shen Muchen pushed Chu Qingyan away and rushed to Tsinghua Palace.

There was no guard he had arranged before to guard this place outside the Tsinghua Palace. When he pushed the door in, there was silence in the courtyard, only a few maids and eunuchs were doing their work.

Standing in the courtyard and looking around, the Tsinghua Palace was silent, and even the gate of Luo'an was tightly closed, with many signs of no one living in it for months...

Shen Muchen rushed into Luo An in a few steps, and pushed the door open with a 'bang' "Yu'er!"

There was no trace of her in the main hall, and Shen Muchen looked around and returned to the main hall. Everything around him was the same as when he left, but when his eyes moved to the bed, Shen Muchen found that the pillows and quilts on the bed were empty.

What the hell is going on? He can't find her!

Just as Shen Muchen was about to step out to ask the people outside, he ran into Chu Qingyan at the door railing. She raised her eyes and looked at Shen Muchen with tears in her eyes. "Your Highness..." She choked up like the past but never spoke. After a while, five words appeared, "Your Highness, please feel sorry for your grief..."

Jie Ai jumped into Shen Muchen's heart twice. He grabbed Chu Qingyan's arm angrily, and his five fingers tightly pinched the flesh on Chu Qingyan's arm, "Tell me clearly! What's going on!"

Under Shen Muchen's threat, Chu Qingyan knew that it was time, so she compiled the matter and said, "That day... Dongying sent someone to the palace to report that his highness was shot by an arrow and died...and then...and then"

"What's going on?" Shen Muchen tightened his feet, and the spirit seemed to be about to pinch her wrist.

"The imperial concubine was too sad and jumped into the stream. It happened that the net of the stream was removed that day, so the imperial concubine was swept downstream by the water flow..." Chu Qingyan did not dare to look up at Shen Muchen's expression. She only heard Shen Muchen's breathing getting thicker and thicker.

"Impossible!" Shen Muchen roared at Chu Qingyan, and the tendons between his forehead jumped out, looking quite scary. His eyes seemed to be filled with red, staring at Chu Qingyan, "You lied to me, how dare you lied to me!"

"I put my shoes in Houxi that day." After that, Doctor Li stood behind the two of them at some point. When he saw Shen Muchen, he hurried forward, "I must have committed suicide by diving in the water."

When Doctor Li heard that Shen Muchen had come back, he quickly threw down his work and went out the door. As soon as he arrived outside the door, he heard that His Highness Muchen ran back to Tsinghua Palace in a hurry, and then rushed over again. Unexpectedly, he happened to see Chu Qingyan.

With the words of Doctor Li, Chu Qingyan thought that even if Shen Muchen couldn't believe it, he had to believe it.

Shen Muchen looked around with fatigue, his eyes full of empty eyes, "Uncle Li, the price of this battle is too high..."

When Doctor Li saw Shen Muchen, he gave Chu Qingyan a look.

Chu Qingyan received the instructions and nodded slightly with understanding, "Just as soon as the battle ends, Qingyan will not disturb Your Highness's rest, Qingyan will leave." After Chu Qingyan finished giving the gift, she stroked her tips and lowered her head and left with her skirt.

"Don't be sad, Li Wan-hyun is not dead"

Shen Muchen had lost his soul and had no consciousness at all. Doctor Li grabbed his collar and forced his head to wake up.

"Uncle Li, what did you say?" Shen Muchen seemed to have caught the light of the sun, staring at Doctor Li in surprise, "Uncle Li, you said, what's going on? Tell me where is Xiong?" Shen Muchen roared almost hysterically, and had already deviated from his usual calm appearance. He had never been so distorted.

Doctor Li was worried that his voice would attract the attention of people outside, and quickly comforted Shen Muchen, "Shhh! Don't let people outside hear it." He talked carefully outside the door and told Shen Muchen about his head when he saw that no one told him about it.

Originally, Doctor Li would not know about this. "After your news comes back, you won't eat well or sleep well. No one can listen to anyone's advice." Doctor Li sighed, "This child is very affectionate with you. That day, I care about Your Highness, so I thought about going over and taking a look."

Doctor Li continued, "I went to Tsinghua Palace for a long time but couldn't find her. I thought to myself that I was used to going to Houxi late, maybe I wanted to go and see it after I went there, but I didn't know that I didn't see Li Wanwei but saw Chu Qingyan..."
