Chapter 193 Returning to the Capital
Jun Moyu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so she just sat up, put on her coat and went out, came to the yard and blew the night breeze, she became more awake and her thoughts became clearer.

Tomorrow they will set off to return to Beijing, and there is still a big battle waiting for them in the capital.

I don't know if it's good or bad this time, and I don't know when this day of fear will end, Jun Moyu looked up at the starry sky and couldn't help laughing at herself.

"Your Highness?" Shen Lanze saw Jun Moyu standing alone under the moonlight, and walked towards him.

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

"Can't sleep, isn't His Highness also asleep?"

"If you can't sleep, chat with His Highness."

"it is good."

Shen Lanze followed Jun Moyu into the pavilion, and the two were silent for a long time.

Shen Lanze asked, "Your Highness is disturbed by Miss Zhang's jumping off the cliff?"

Jun Moyu was silent for a moment, and then said: "That's right, I'm afraid there will be someone in the palace who is ready to move again."

"That's right, the emperor hasn't come out of his rage about Prime Minister Luo's matter. If he learns that the Lord of the Holy Cult has jumped off the cliff, he may be angry with His Highness the Fifth Highness." Shen Lanze sighed softly.

At this moment, a gust of night wind blew past, and Jun Moyu suddenly thought of something and asked, "How credible do you think what Zhang Qiu said before he died?"

Shen Lanze shook his head: "Everyone is dead, so naturally there is no way to prove it. As for the letter can be forged, there is no conclusive evidence to prove it. This time we can only suffer from being dumb, but the emperor should stand on His Highness the Fifth Highness's side."

Jun Moyu nodded in relief, Shen Lanze's thoughts coincided with his.

"So good!"

Jun Moyu didn't say any more, but changed the topic and asked about Shen Lanze's arrangements after returning to Beijing.

Shen Lanze said: "I plan to take this opportunity to retract the confession. I want to redress the Shen family's grievances and prove the Shen family's innocence."

He didn't want to wait any longer, this time was undoubtedly the best opportunity.

Hearing this, Jun Moyu was slightly stunned, and then reacted, saying: "Okay, His Highness will do my best to help you!"

"Then follow the plan."

"Ah."

Early the next morning, three carriages carrying members of the Holy Cult left Jingzhou City and headed for the capital.

Shen Lanze and Jun Moyu rode side by side, followed by Han Feng's guards and soldiers.

"Going back to Beijing this time must be full of dangers, everyone must be more careful, and don't stop if you can't stop along the way." Shen Lanze said to the soldiers behind him.

The corners of Jun Moyu's mouth curled up into an evil curve, and he said lightly: "This time, whoever dares to rob the prisoner, my highness will let him come and go."

The horseshoes rattled and the dust billowed.

The road was indeed not peaceful, and before going far, they encountered bandits who were blocking the road and were robbed by Jun Moyu's troops. There was also a group of mobs who wanted to rob the members of the Holy Cult, but they were all arrested in the end.

Finally, after seven days of difficult journey, the team finally arrived at the capital, and it was noon at this time.

The capital was full of voices, and everyone couldn't help stretching their necks to look out.

Seeing the fifth prince and Shen Lanze on horseback, the woman's eyes showed envy, while the man's eyes showed respect.

Everyone couldn't help but knelt down and kowtowed. This is the prince they respect.

Jun Moyu tightened the reins, steadied the horse, turned to look at Shen Lanze, and said in a low voice: "Lanze, everything will depend on you, remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you must rely on your safety For the most important."

"Yes, rest assured, Your Highness." Shen Lanze solemnly agreed.

A look of worry flashed between Jun Moyu's brows. Although he seemed indifferent on the surface these years, he was actually very worried in his heart, fearing that one day he would not be able to protect Shen Lanze. After all, the enemy he faced this time was stronger than ever before.

This is Taifu Shen's only flesh and blood!

Moreover, the unjust case of the Shen family was judged by the emperor himself, how could anyone admit that he had wrongly judged the case, let alone the person who wrongly judged the case was the majestic king of the country.

With a feeling of apprehension, Jun Moyu handed over the members of the Holy Cult to Dali Temple for detention, and then followed Shen Lanze to the capital to face the saint.

In the imperial study room, the emperor threw the memorial in his hand to the ground, seeing the few ministers kneeling below, he was furious.

"This is the result of your investigation? Robbers? Bandits? When did these bandits become so arrogant, they dared to come to the capital and murder the court officials!"

"Are you guys stupid, or do you think I'm a fool? With such a reason, such an excuse, you dare to pass on the paper!"

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

"Calm your anger?" The emperor snorted coldly, pointed at several ministers and cursed: "You tell me, how can you calm your anger! These people dare to do such outrageous things under my nose, it is simply unreasonable!"

The ministers all knelt on the ground dejectedly, not daring to speak.

"What is the use of you, what is the purpose of raising you, you are lucky, even if you can't even find out a case, you are still worthy of being called the pillars of the court!"

"Your Majesty deserves to be punished."

When Jun Moyu and Shen Lanze entered the imperial study, they just heard these words.

Shen Lanze glanced at the ministers kneeling on the ground, and then at the gloomy emperor, his eyes darkened.

The emperor's eyes fell on Jun Moyu and Shen Lanze, his face softened, and he said in a slightly gentle tone: "You all step back."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The ministers quickly retreated as if they were being pardoned, for fear that they would be a step too late and become victims of the emperor's anger.

Jun Moyu immediately took a step forward and said respectfully: "My son, please see my father."

Jun Moyu saluted beside Shen Lanze.

"See Your Majesty."

Shen Lanze raised his head, and happened to meet the angry eyes of the emperor. At that moment, Shen Lanze felt a chill all over his body. This look was terrifying.

"Excuse me!" The haze on the emperor's face still persisted, and his tone was cold.

Jun Moyu thought to herself, it seems that Prime Minister Luo hasn't really thought about it yet, but it's right to think about it, Sheng Guang is involved in this matter, who dares to really investigate anything.

"Thank you, father." Jun Moyu calmed down and stood up slowly.

"Father, my son has something to report." Jun Moyu cupped his hands and said.

"Say."

"Father, my son found out about the Beiling Kingdom from the Holy Cult, and please take a look at it." Jun Mo Yulang said with a serious expression, took out the letter from his arms and presented it with both hands.

The emperor took the letter and looked it up. After seeing the contents above, his face was very calm, as if he knew this matter well.

The emperor looked at Shen Lanze who was at the side, sized him up and said, "I heard that the woman beside you, Lu Nanzhi, is friends with the Lord of the Holy Cult, and they get along very closely. Is it true?"

Hearing this, Shen Lanze's complexion suddenly turned pale, and he lowered his head to cover the strange expression in his eyes.

Was it the emperor's eyeliner who informed me, or someone else?
Sensing Shen Lanze's strangeness, Jun Moyu immediately cupped her hands and said, "Father and Emperor Mingjian, Miss Lu is also a victim in this matter. She doesn't know the identity of the leader of the Holy Cult! She was also deceived!"

"I want to listen to him." The emperor's lingering eyes fell on Shen Lanze who bowed his head, wanting to hear how he would justify himself.
