Imperial Duke Wei had left the capital this time to suppress the bandits. He didn’t mobilize much when he returned to the capital and only brought people from the Duke’s Estate and traveled light.

The sound of whips being waved rose and fell. The horses’ hooves flew, stepping on a gray dust cloud.

A middle-aged man rode his horse to Imperial Duke Wei, who was at the front, and asked for instructions, “Imperial Duke Wei, after returning to the capital, do you want to return to the Duke’s Estate first, or enter the palace first?”

“Enter the palace,” Imperial Duke Wei said without hesitation.

He had always been an impatient person. Now, he only wanted to resolve this matter as soon as possible so that there would be no future trouble.

When the group arrived less than 300 feet away from the city gate, a figure in a sapphire blue robe suddenly rushed out from the side and stood in the middle of the official road.

“Brother!” Xu Yan shouted loudly. He stood in front of Imperial Duke Wei and tried to stop him.

The white breath from the horse’s mouth and nose almost sprayed on Xu Yan’s face. The stinky smell on the horse assaulted his face, making him want to vomit. Xu Yan subconsciously frowned.

Even so, he still smiled apologetically and said ingratiatingly, “Brother, you’ve succeeded and returned triumphantly. 1 specially came to celebrate for you.”

The group of people led by Imperial Duke Wei pulled the reins tightly. Horses neighed and straightened their backs, their front hooves raised high.

The horse stopped only two to three feet away from Xu Yan.

Imperial Duke Wei rode on a tall and strong black horse. He was travel-worn, but he was still hale and hearty. He looked down at Xu Yan, who was close at hand.

Xu Yan looked a little awful at this moment.

He had lost a lot of weight, and his face was haggard. There was a deep shadow in his eyes, and he looked withered. It was difficult to hide the nervousness in his eyes.

It had only been half a month since they last met, but Xu Yan looked like a completely different person from the last time they met.

That day, when Xu Yan left the Wei family’s manor with his delicate concubine and beloved son, he still had a smug and ostentatious expression on his face. He carried an arrogance that Duke Wei’s Mansion couldn’t do anything to him.

Indeed.

It wasn’t wrong for a father to kill his daughter. At most, others would condemn Xu Yan morally.

Indeed.

When a man raised his mistress outside, it was just a romantic matter.

In this society, there seemed to be more leniency towards men, while women were often subjected to scrutiny. If news about an extramarital affair were to spread, it was likely that many people wouldn’t sympathize with Wei Wan. Instead, they might perceive her as a jealous woman, leading Xu Yan to keep someone outside the marriage.

Instead of letting those people laugh at Wei Wan in private for not being able to control a man and not being able to tolerate anyone, they might as well cut the Gordian knot and be ruthless.

A cold light flashed across Imperial Duke Wei’s sharp eyes. He said coldly, “There’s no need. I still have to enter the palace to report.”

“Move!”

Imperial Duke Wei was unwilling to waste his breath and refused to exchange pleasantries with Xu Yan.

Not only did Xu Yanfei not give in, but he even took another step closer to Imperial Duke Wei. The corners of his eyes pressed down stiffly, but the smile on his face became even more ardent. “Brother, 1 heard last night that Yao’er caught a cold two days ago. I was extremely worried and didn’t sleep last night.”

“Yao’er has been weak since she was young. Every year, it’s easy for her to catch a cold. Last year, she had a high fever for three days and three nights. Wan’er and I were worried sick.”

“As parents, we’ve lost a piece of flesh to our children.”

Xu Yan looked at Imperial Duke Wei affectionately and tried to move him.

After all, he was related to Wei Wan and Xu Yao by blood.

Xu Yan comforted himself in his heart and said kindly, “Brother, I really know my mistake.”

“Yu Qing, I’ll handle it well. I’ll definitely give you an explanation.”

“Brother, let Wan’er and her daughter go back with me.”

Xu Yan lowered his posture greatly. He was simply about to kneel down before Imperial Duke Wei.

“You know your mistake?” Imperial Duke Wei’s lukewarm voice came from the back of the horse. Against the light, his face seemed to be covered in a layer of shadow.

The black horse under him paced impatiently again and exhaled several mouthfuls of rough air.

To be honest, Xu Yan couldn’t figure out Imperial Duke Wei’s attitude. It was obvious that he wasn’t as amiable as before, but he didn’t look like he wanted to kill him with a knife with his eyes when he impeached him a few days ago.

Suppressing the thousands of thoughts in his heart, Xu Yan looked up at Imperial Duke Wei and said sincerely, “I was wrong!”

“Wan’er is devoted to me. I shouldn’t have raised a mistress and made her sad.”

“Brother, let me see Wan’er. I’ll apologize to her personally..”
