After Ye Jiu finally returned home, Old Man Ye and He Shi were finally able to settle their anxieties.
All day they had been on tenterhooks, even suspecting that Prince Jing might contend with them for the child. Fortunately, it was just needless worry.
Prince Jing rode back all the way, but his heart was not as at ease as his facial expression suggested.
The thought that his precious daughter had been swapped out of the Royal Residence, and he had unwittingly raised another's son as his own for so many years, would be difficult for anyone to simply dismiss.
Regardless of whether or not there was a conspiracy involved, Prince Jing had no intentions of letting any of the people involved off the hook.
As soon as Prince Jing dismounted, he happened to catch a glimpse of Liu Yunqing's figure flitting by, and he called over someone nearby to ask, "Why is Liu Yunqing here?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, the Princess Consort summoned Young Master Liu to join us for dinner."
