Song Yuchan shook her head, not quite sure what was happening inside her heart.
She explained to her mother and brother, "Father encountered mountain bandits on the way, he might have been startled."
Lady Song and her three sons felt somewhat relieved and asked her, "Did you not see your elder brother?"
Song Yuchan shook her head.
Lady Song said, "This is strange, your elder brother and your father were imprisoned together in the Capital's Great Prison. Logically, since your father has been released, your elder brother should have been released too!"
"Mother, don't worry, my elder brother must be in Capital City handling matters!"
"Yes, since father has been reinstated into his position, the Imperial Court will not make things difficult for our elder brother!"
The two sons comforted Lady Song, but only the youngest, Song Shiyong, felt something was amiss.
As they spoke, the door suddenly opened.
