Just as many ministers in the court were worried about their careers and lives, Prince Chu returned to the capital with great fanfare.
Recently, due to the accusation from Annan, the civil and military officials have been anxious and concerned, leaving no room to pay attention to Prince Chu. It wasn't until Prince Chu returned to the capital that they remembered Prince Chu had specific intentions for going to the Northern border. Just thinking that Prince Chu's return might bring turmoil to the court again made the ministers anxious. For a while, many were on edge.
Prince Chu returned to the capital without hurrying to enter the palace; instead, he first returned to his mansion to bathe and change. He had traveled a long dusty journey, looking disheveled. To appear before the emperor in such a state would be too disrespectful.
