Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yun Bixue couldn’t resist asking, “Is your grandfather in good health?”
“Grandfather’s health is sometimes good and sometimes bad. Father and Uncle often visit Grandfather, but now, Little Aunt also visits Grandfather frequently.”
Little Aunt?
Yun Bixue surmised that he was referring to Princess Yanwu!
For some reason, ever since that online fiasco, Yun Bixue didn’t feel much towards Princess Yanwu.
Perhaps if one would put it this way, no matter how beautiful she was, Yun Bixue wouldn’t admire her.
But Yun Bixue wouldn’t reveal the joy and rage of adults before a child, lest she would traumatize him.
“Hao’er’s little aunt is very pretty!”
Hao’er continued drawing on the paper, saying with pouted lips, “Little Aunt is very pretty, but I really dislike her. Father also asked me not to go near her.”
Yun Bixue raised an eyebrow. This didn’t make sense. Didn’t they say that Majesty Huang treated this younger sister of his extremely well?
Why would he ask Hao’er not to go near her?
There were suddenly many questions in Yun Bixue’s heart. She wanted to clear up these doubts. After all, this had broad implications.
Also, she didn’t want to see Hao’er run into any danger. If this princess really harbored evil intentions, it was necessary to be guarded against her.
“Hao’er, did your father say why you shouldn’t go near your aunt?”
Hao’er shook his head. He had no idea why either.
Yun Bixue stroked his head. “Hao’er, don’t think too much. If your father said this, it must have been for your own good. Listen to your father in the future, okay?”
“En, Father said that I can also listen to what Auntie says.”
Seeing the trusting look in Hao’er’s eyes, Yun Bixue’s heart warmed up. “Why did Hao’er’s father say this?”
“Father said that Auntie wouldn’t hurt Hao’er. Auntie likes Hao’er.”
Yun Bixue burst out laughing. They had merely met several times, and this Majesty Huang trusted her so much. She really had no idea what to say.
But it was indeed the case. She had her bottom line and principles, and that was she would not hurt innocent children.
In order to rescue Su Lenghan’s child back then, she could disregard her safety and went to see Jiang Jingshan by herself.
When facing Hao’er, she would treat him sincerely too.
After Hao’er left, Yun Bixue a.n.a.lyzed the royal family and deduced the possible scenarios. Eventually, she came to some conclusions.
That night, when lying on the brick bed, Yun Bixue couldn’t resist telling Xie Limo her speculations.
“Limo, I am sure that Princess Yanwu will partic.i.p.ate in the power struggle. You’ve said it before, she holds a quarter of the military power. Now that His Majesty also holds another quarter, if Princess Yanwu manages to get her hands on this military power, then she will have half of the country’s military power. That way, she would be able to impede the king.”
Xie Limo turned over and hugged Yun Bixue. “Don’t think too much. Just leave it to me.’
“But you stay at home and accompany me all the time! How are you going to handle these matters? I naturally have to worry over this.”
Xie Limo laughed. “You’re blaming me?”
“No way!”
Xie Limo knew his wife was saying one thing and meaning another. She was clearly worried about him, but she refused to admit it.
He caressed her brows rea.s.suringly, “Alright, don’t worry. I will go to work at the political department tomorrow. There are some arrangements that need to be made in advance, but before your confinement is over, the imperial capital will continue to remain peaceful.”
Yun Bixue leaned into Xie Limo’s arms, feeling touched. She knew that it was only for her sake that he let His Majesty live a few more months to let the imperial capital remain peaceful on the surface.
