That night, the people of the capital city hid in their homes and listened to the fighting all night.

The chaos lasted until dawn, when everything returned to peace.

The people carefully stuck their heads out and observed the situation around them.

The braver ones began to push open the gate and walked directly onto the street.

At first, they were worried about seeing a messy and bloody scene, but to their surprise, the streets were not as messy as they had imagined.

Although there were some bloodstains and traces of battle on the ground, the situation was far more serious than they had imagined.

Gradually, some vendors, forced to make a living, took to the streets directly and started setting up stalls and selling their goods.

As the hawking sounds spread, more and more people put aside their fears and walked out of their homes. Soon, someone discovered that the city gate was actually open.

At this point, the imperial city, which had been closed for half a decade, resumed circulation.

Song Xile and Chen Yunyou stayed at home for three days.

Although they had not gone out for the past three days, they were well aware of the news outside.

On the second day after defeating the rebels, the crown prince sent someone to report their safety.

After Chen Yunyou knew that his uncle was safe, he was no longer in a hurry to meet him. After all, at this moment, in order to quell the rebellion, there must be many forces in the court that needed to be cleared out.

It was not until the fourth day that a group of armored soldiers suddenly came to the door. Leading them was a middle-aged man with a resolute face and his eyes revealed the calmness and determination of a veteran in the battlefield.

Xie Lang walked over with sharp eyes, and he immediately saw Chen Yunyou standing in the crowd.

At just one glance, his heart told him that this was his younger sister's child, the child of his Xie family!

After more than ten years, seeing his young master again, Doctor Mo's eyes were red with excitement, his knees softened and he knelt down directly, "I have failed to protect the young lady!"

Xie Lang reached out and helped Doctor Mo up, saying in a hoarse voice: "Get up, this is not your fault!"

Doctor Mo stood up with Xie Lang's strength, and immediately said excitedly: "My Lord, this is the eldest lady's child. Do you think he looks a lot like you when you were young? When I first saw him, I thought I saw the eldest young master!"

Xie Lang looked at Chen Yunyou again. Today, just as he was about to return home from the palace to rest, the Crown Prince found him and told him about the child.

Xie Lang, who had not rested for three consecutive days and nights, did not bother to go back home and immediately found this place.

He looked at the child in front of him who had similar eyebrows and eyes, and couldn't help but curled the corners of his lips and nodded, "Good boy, you have suffered!"

These few simple words actually made Chen Yunyou's eyes red.

This is his blood relative!

He fell to his knees with a thud, and said with a choked voice: "Yun You is unfilial, making your uncle look for you for so many years."

Xie Lang's throat rolled over. He pulled Chen Yunyou up from the ground and said in a hoarse voice, "Hurry up, how can you be blamed for this? Our Xie family is blocking people's way. It is our Xie family that has implicated you and your son!"

Chen Yunyou heard the hidden meaning, he grabbed Xie Lang's hand and asked anxiously: "Uncle, my mother..."

Xie Lang closed his eyes tightly, and after a long while he said with difficulty: "Dead!"

When Chen Yunyou heard the news, he couldn't help but sway. He was supported by his wife who was standing beside him, and then he stabilized his body.

After hearing that he was not Chen Yi's son, he even felt a little secretly happy.

It turns out that his parents didn't dislike him, and he was not an unloved child.

He even imagined the scene of their family of four reuniting in his mind.

He didn't even have the time to call out "Dad, Mom!" in front of them.

I have never served soup myself.

He didn't even have time to look at them.

He lost the person who loved him most in this world.

At this moment, Chen Yunyou felt as if there was a void in his heart, very stuffy and painful.

His eyes were red, and he asked with difficulty: "Who did it?"

Seeing that his expression was not right, Xie Lang did not want to talk to him about this matter at this time, so he changed the subject and said, "Since you are the blood of my Xie family, there is no reason for you not to go home after returning to the capital."

"Pack your bags. I'll tell you about your mother later!"

Song Xile also knew that this was not the place to talk, so she shook her husband's hand and said, "Let's go back with uncle first!"

Chen Yunyou then woke up as if from a dream. He followed his wife to pack up his things and returned to the mansion with Lord Xie.
