After being reborn with Sister Zha, I was stunned!

Mu Beiyan was also left helpless by this father and son.

"This, this..." Facing the burning gazes of the father and son, Shen Qingyin didn't know how to respond.

"Forget it. I'm afraid Yin Yin won't be able to accept it for the time being. We should give her some time to slowly adapt!" Xiao Chucheng sighed.

Xiao Chunran also agreed: "Indeed, it's a bit sudden, take your time, take your time!"

The father and son had the same idea. When they looked at each other, Xiao Chunran knelt down on the ground with a plop and lowered his head: "Father, I was wrong before. Please punish me severely!"

"Punishment?" Xiao Chucheng was stunned, as if he had forgotten that his son had once placed him under house arrest.

"Yes, father, please punish me severely. No matter how you punish me, I have no complaints!" Xiao Chunran knocked his head to the ground.

"My son was blinded by one thing and made an outrageous mistake. He committed an unforgivable crime against my father. Even if my father wanted me to die, I would have nothing to say..."

Xiao Chunran's eyes were wet with tears.

He was really scared and regretful.

My sister is still here.

The Queen Mother may still be alive.

If he insists on using war to solve the problem.

Perhaps, his mother and sister would disappear silently in the war...

Xiao Chucheng stroked his beard and nodded: "Yes, he deserves to be punished, severely!"

"I'll fine you one year's salary and ground you for a month. That's all. Don't ground you. If you ground you, you won't be able to see your sister for a month... So I'll just fine you one year's salary!"

Xiao Chunran looked up in disbelief.

"Father, you can't do this! The country has laws. My son has committed a heinous crime and should be severely punished! If you just let your son go, how can you convince others in the future?"

He had indeed made a big mistake and should pay the price.

If the emperor indulged him because he was his son and caused unrest in the government, that would be his greater fault...

Xiao Chucheng motioned for him to stand up.

"You did make a mistake. You moved my father from the palace to the Sandalwood Temple without my father's permission... But my father knows that you have no intention of murdering my father, otherwise you wouldn't have decorated the attic to be exactly the same as my bedroom, and moved all the paintings and calligraphy that my father liked there, and even the food was what my father liked... You did this because of your mother. I am very relieved that you can admit your mistake now. Moreover, I am very happy to see your sister today, so I will let it go."

"Absolutely not, father! This will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction among the people in the court. We cannot let the disaster befall the Xituo Kingdom because of our son!" Xiao Chunran insisted.

Xiao Chucheng smiled and said, "Everyone in the court is dissatisfied? At this point, who in the court knows about this?"

Xiao Chunran was stunned, not understanding what Xiao Chucheng meant.

"I'm afraid that besides those of us present here, there is also the person in the palace who knows the truth?" Xiao Chucheng asked again.

Xiao Chunran nodded.

Indeed, he did this in secret.

The man in the palace originally looked a bit like my father, and after the disguise, he was 80% similar.

But apart from the fact that he looks somewhat similar and can simply imitate some of his father's behaviors and habits, he doesn't know anything else.

In order to cover up for him, he asked him to claim to be sick all the time and not see anyone except those who had to be avoided, and kept him trapped in the Zhengde Hall.

Therefore, the only one who knew about it was that person.

As for the eunuchs who served him, some of them did have some suspicions, but since he went to pay his respects every now and then, as usual, they dared not say anything...

"Since no one knows about it, why would everyone be dissatisfied?" Xiao Chucheng asked meaningfully.

"But Commander He has already arrived outside the door with the Armored Guards..." Xiao Chunran still didn't understand what his father was talking about.

"He came with the Armored Guards to save you, the Crown Prince, not for me. In their eyes, I am staying well in Zhengde Palace!"

Shen Qingyin exchanged glances with Mu Beiyan and Feng Yunmo.

They have already understood what Xiao Chucheng meant.

Xiao Chunran was stunned for a while, and then he seemed to understand. He kowtowed to Xiao Chucheng again: "Father, I am sorry for you, I am sorry for you——"

"Get up. It's such a happy day. Don't cry like this. What a shame." Xiao Chucheng waved his hand.

Xiao Chunran stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, walked to Feng Yunmo, bowed, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Feng, I was wrong before, I misunderstood you... It turns out that you have done so much for our mother..."

Feng Yunmo smiled slightly, with a look of relief on his face.

Although he was only a few years older than Xiao Chunran, the way he looked at Xiao Chunran was like an elder looking at a younger person.

"You are my aunt's son. For my aunt, no matter what you do to me, I will not blame you."

These words made Xiao Chunran's eyes instantly turn slightly red again. He was about to say something else when he heard shouting outside the door that became louder and louder.

"Those inside, quickly release His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Otherwise, we will charge in!"

"You have one incense stick to release His Highness, otherwise we will knock on your door!"

Xiao Chunran and Xiao Chucheng looked at each other.

"Father, it's He Dong."

Xiao Chucheng nodded: "Then you can go out."

"Yes."

Xiao Chunran straightened his clothes and looked at Shen Qingyin reluctantly, "Sister, I'm going back to the palace first and will come back to see you later."

After saying that, accompanied by Mu Beiyan and Feng Yunmo, he went to the front yard gate.

Just when the person outside was about to break in, the door was opened.

Seeing Xiao Chunran who was intact in front of him, He Dong, who was holding a big knife with an angry and nervous face, was stunned.

"Your Highness, I will come to save you!"

Then he quickly pointed his sword at Mu Beiyan and Feng Yunmo who were beside Xiao Chunran, and said sternly: "You thieves, how dare you hold the Crown Prince hostage? Why don't you let him go!"

Xiao Chunran glanced at him and said, "Why save them? Why let them go? This prince just has nothing to do, so I came to visit a friend. What are you guys shouting and yelling for outside the door? You're making so much noise that this prince can't even speak!"

"Ah?" A hint of surprise appeared on He Dong's cold face, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

But he quickly realized: "Your Highness, are you threatened by them? Don't be afraid, I am here to discipline them so that they dare not act rashly!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Xiao Chunran took a few steps to He Dong, "How do I look threatened? I said I'm only here to visit a friend!"

He Dong became even more suspicious: "But, Lord Chen said that you were captured by an expert..."

He came here in a hurry because he got the news from Master Chen...

"Oh, you mean this?" Xiao Chunran suddenly realized, "My friend likes to joke, it was just a joke... Don't you think about it, if it weren't for my cooperation, who could have easily kidnapped me?"

"Oh." He Dong nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Come to think of it, who could easily capture the prince in front of hundreds of people? Even he was not sure...

This Lord Chen is really exaggerating!

Xiao Chunran turned around to say goodbye to Mu Beiyan and Feng Yunmo, and left with everyone.

However, later, when Shen Qingyin and they were just about to have dinner, he came again in a panic.
