Chapter1063: From Li Village

As Zhou Huailing turned around and walked towards the court, he released his fists once again. He looked really disappointed.0

Inside the gate there was a magnificent palace of the Saint Divine Land.

And outside the gate, people were laughing and crying.

They all said that the imperial family was better than any other family in the world, but they had no idea what the real imperial family was like.

The Elder Prince headed towards the Min Family with Min Qing, leaving the court.

On the other hand, Zhou Huailing walked into Qianqing Palace with a smile on his face.

The King was just reading the petitions when he heard the sound of footsteps. Only the Crown Prince and the Empress Dowager did not have to inform him of tCrown Prince arrivals. However, the King had asked the Empress Dowager to remain at her own Cining Palace so only the Crown Prince had access to his place.

He looked up and saw that it was the Crown Prince.

"How are you these days? It has been ages since what happened at Li Village, and Prime Minister Chu has achieved great things, so you don't have to worry about anything now," the King asked when he saw the Crown Prince.

He was well aware that the Crown Prince had suffered a little at Li Village, but it happened a long time ago, so he should have recovered.

The Crown Prince should not be too timid, since the Saint Divine Land was established through wars.

Zhou Huailing had come to the King after hearing what Junyi suggested. "Father, I am already better. I am here to check on Elder brother after hearing that he is home."

When the elder prince was mentioned the King thought and asked Zhou Huailing. "The Elder Prince has been residing at the border for more than a decade, and it is not really reasonable to let him stay there still. I asked someone from the Min Family to bring the Elder Prince home, but Crown Prince, what do you think we should do about him."

A sinister look flashed across Zhou Huailing's eyes. Yet he instantly put on a very affable look.

Junyi had reminded him that the King would ask him about this.

And he did.

Zhou Huailing answered according to Junyi's suggestion. "Since brother has come back to the capital, he should be granted the title of a lord and a mansion."

"…"

"But you are the one that makes the decision, father."

The King nodded with satisfaction. He was very satisfied by how the Crown Prince reacted at this point.

True, the Elder prince should be granted a title and a mansion, but how that endowment should happen was a problem.

He needed to discuss with the Ministry of Rites first, before making a decision. He was the Elder Prince, after all. He was different from the other princes.

"So, we should have a discussion with the Ministry of Rites before the decision is made. If you don't have anything else to say, you can just go back," the King said.

Zhou Huailing had a very complicated look on his face.

He thought that his father would have other things to discuss with him, but his father did not even want to mention a thing about Li Village.

Zhou Huailing forced a smile and answered briefly, before leaving.

The King got up from his chair and headed towards the jail.

***

At Xinlin Mansion.

Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan were just talking about what happened to the Elder Prince, when Xiu Jie came with a message. "Elder Miss, the Village Chief of Li Village is here at the clinic with his staff. He wants to have a talk with you, can you go and check on them at the clinic?"

What were the people from Li Village doing at the clinic, when what happened at Li Village was settled?

Gu Chaoyan wondered what was happening.
