Chapter 391: Truth Years Ago

Xia Chunyu could not bear to say the following words when he saw Ye Jiayao's happy appearance.

Although the emperor asked Helian Xuan to come back, the emperor's wariness about him did not disappear. He asked Helian Xuan to bring only his guards back to Jinling, while the rest of his men stayed in the northeast and were taken over by others. The people who took over were the emperor's own cronies.

This aimed to reduce the military power of Helian Xuan.

The reason was that King Yu had said something. If he hadn't suggested to the emperor that Master Crown Prince's death guard was formed with the help of Helian Xuan, the emperor wouldn't have been so uneasy about Helian Xuan. Although he didn't catch evidence in the end, the emperor's suspicion would not have been so easy to eliminate.
