Chapter 242
Wang Yuelian looked at Mengsheng in disbelief.

The fact that Ye Guichen's people drove her out didn't make her too sad, but it was Meng Sheng's attitude that made her so desperate that she couldn't restrain herself: "Grandpa, grandpa, don't you leave me alone? Don't..."

Meng Sheng's face was gloomy, but he still sat upright, without any intention of interfering.

Lian Yi understood what he meant, dragged Wang Yuelian and threw her out of the palace.

Within a month, he was thrown out of the palace twice.

Wang Yuelian's face in Beijing was completely lost.

On the other side, the servants brought Liu Yi'an to Liu Qingli.

Seeing that the child was safe and sound, Liu Qingli felt relieved and let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Liu Yi'an took the initiative to apologize: "Mother, I'm sorry, I was tired from playing in the back garden and fell asleep behind the rockery. I didn't mean to make you worry."

Liu Qingli didn't have the slightest doubt about this, she pinched his cheek lightly with a smile, and said with a smile: "If An An feels tired, let Li Xia take you to rest, and you can't run around without gnawing, you know ?"

Liu Yi'an nodded in response.

While the two were talking, another servant from outside came in to report: "Princess, a distinguished guest has arrived."

"Guest?" Liu Qingli stood up suspiciously, and asked with a frown, "Why don't you lead the guest to the front hall?"

At the auspicious time before the worship hall, what kind of guests can come directly into her inner courtyard?

Just when Liu Qingli was wondering, she heard the sound of a four-wheeled cart rolling outside.

At first she thought she had heard wrong and couldn't believe it.

On the contrary, Liu Yi'an reacted quickly, ran out excitedly, and then threw himself into the person's arms: "Uncle!"

Hearing this call, Liu Qingli didn't dare to delay, and immediately took two steps outside, and saw Xu Chengen in the courtyard at a glance.

The sun was shining on him, he held Liu Yi'an's hand, and smiled at her very gently.

Liu Qingli's pupils trembled, she couldn't believe it and was ecstatic: "Brother...you, you are back!"

She walked quickly towards Xu Chengen, she hadn't seen him for so long, seeing that his complexion and demeanor were very good, the heart that had been hanging all this time was finally relieved.

Xu Chengen looked at her with gentle eyes forever, full of infinite indulgence and pampering, and his tone was extremely gentle: "I'm back."

Liu Yi'an still kept Xu Cheng'en close, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, why have you been home for so long, and you don't come to see me, do you miss me at all?"

As he spoke, his eyes were still a little red.

Since childhood, Liu Yi'an has never been separated from Xu Chengen for so long, and she really misses him.

"Of course not. Uncle thinks about An An every day."

Xu Chengen stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of Liu Yi'an's nose, and said with a smile, "Uncle brought a gift for An'an when I came back this time."

Liu Yi'an's eyes lit up immediately, looking at him expectantly.

The smile in Xu Chengen's eyes grew stronger: "If An An can promise uncle not to cry later, uncle can give An An another present."

Liu Yi'an immediately raised his hand to touch his tears, and said with a smile, "Really? I don't cry. Today, mother and father are married, and uncle is back. I should be happy!"

Liu Qingli was amused by the child, and asked Xu Chengen hesitantly and worriedly: "Brother, is... is it the prince who asked you to come back?"

She was afraid that Xu Chengen came by herself, so if Ye Guichen knew...

When she was hesitating, Xu Chengen nodded with a smile and said: "Of course, without his permission, I can't enter the palace."

Hearing this, Liu Qingli was finally relieved, heaved a sigh of relief, and burst into tears with excitement: "Great, it's really great that brother is back."

Xu Chengen didn't expect that he would be able to return to them again, he was more grateful and happy, and comforted him: "Don't cry, Qingli, today is your big day, don't cry, you should marry happily."

Liu Qingli stopped her tears, and quickly asked someone to bring Xu Chengen into the room.

After the screen retreated, Liu Yi'an apologized to Xu Chengen: "Brother, I'm sorry, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't be sent away by the prince, it's all my fault..."

Xu Chengen has endured too much suffering in this life, all from her, no matter what, she still doesn't know it.

Xu Chengen still smiled gently and tolerantly, and said softly: "Qingli, I have already said that there is no need to care about these things between us. Why are you so estranged with me after we haven't seen each other for a few months?"

Liu Qingli felt guilty, and it was far more than that.

She pursed her lips, not daring to look into Xu Chengen's eyes, she lowered her head and muttered softly: "Brother, will you blame me for marrying the prince?"

Xu Chengen frowned slightly, his eyes flashed a bit bewildered.

Liu Qingli continued: "He treated us that way back then. If he hadn't insisted on chasing and killing you, you wouldn't have lost your legs, and An An wouldn't have been born weak and sick, but I..."

She has no choice but to marry Ye Guichen.

She can't let An An be a bastard who is pointed at her nose and scolded forever.

Although the marriage with Ye Guichen was forced by the situation, but once they got married, it was like telling everyone that she had forgotten the suffering and torment she had suffered in the past.

Xu Chengen slid the four-wheeler to Liu Qingli's side, held her trembling hands, and softly comforted her: "Qingli, don't think too much, those things have already passed."

Is it over?

Liu Qingli's eyelashes trembled slightly. How could the dark days of being hunted and killed pass away so easily?
Xu Chengen saw her pale face, distressed and helpless, sighed, and took the initiative to say good things for Ye Guichen: "Qingli, in fact, the lord is not as cold-blooded and ruthless as we imagined."

"This time he asked someone to send me out of the capital, and he didn't hurt me. He even invited a doctor to treat my leg and took good care of me."

"Besides, whether the person who chased and killed us six years ago was sent by the prince is still to be discussed."

During the time he left the capital, Xu Chengen thought a lot by himself.

At first, he thought that Ye Guichen would definitely kill him, after all, Ye Guichen always believed that he had abducted his woman and child.

But Ye Guichen didn't.

Xu Chengen thought about what happened six years ago. From the moment Liu Qingli left the capital, Ye Guichen had sent someone to look for her.

But so far, Xu Chengen has not heard anyone say that Ye Guichen wants Liu Qingli's life.

Everyone said that he just wanted to catch Liu Qingli and punish him.

Liu Qingli's pupils trembled, and her lips trembled slightly with excitement: "You...you mean to say that I misunderstood the prince six years ago? He didn't want to kill us?"

Who sent those batches of killers back then?
A figure suddenly flashed in Liu Qingli's mind, and she already had the answer in her heart...

Xu Chengen didn't dare to give her the exact answer, he just said: "I'm still investigating this matter, maybe you can ask him directly, Qingli, don't let this matter become a knot in your heart."

Ask directly?

Liu Qingli clenched her fists. No matter what the truth is, once she leaves the door, it means that she doesn't trust Ye Guichen. Do you really want to ask?
