Xiao Changyi didn't know why it had come to this, but he said, "I will find out the truth and explain everything to you."
Gong Juechen laughed, "So, you want me to die with clarity, is that it?"
Xiao Changyi frowned slightly, stood up, and walked towards the door. As he walked away, he instructed, "Stay in this courtyard until I have cleared things up."
"What, you plan to keep me under house arrest?" Gong Juechen laughed lightly as he picked up the overnight tea to drink.
Xiao Changyi's steps faltered for a moment, then, without turning his head, he continued walking away and said indifferently, "It's to protect you."
Gong Juechen suddenly choked up.
...
Having left Gong Juechen, Xiao Changyi returned to the main court to find An Jing.
He sent the four little ones to play nearby and quietly told An Jing about Gong Juechen being Su Chenglin, and why Gong Juechen had all this time refused to acknowledge the Emperor of Xiyun.
