Madam Bai's expression was not good.

"Father, what do you mean? That woman is not worthy of Rui'er."

Bai Shan looked at Madam Bai with an ambiguous expression, until she broke out in a cold sweat. "Father, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you."

Bai Shan tapped the ground with his cane. "Furong, do you still remember your mother?"

Madam Bai's face turned ashen, as if she were made of paper. Of course she remembered it; she would never forget it in this lifetime.

It was as if I could smell that bloody stench all over me again.

"Women are only for procreation. I allowed him to stay in order to carry on the Bai family tradition and let him fulfill his duties as the eldest grandson. Having children is all he needs to do."

"Don't force your father to make you make another choice."

Madam Bai lowered her eyes and brows, her face appearing indifferent and detached, her tone calm and unwavering.

"Yes, Father."

Bai Shan nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the wrinkles on his skin. Although he looked younger, he was still not as youthful as a young person.

“I already know the latest news, but the capital city is already under my control. Go, take this document to Her Majesty, she will definitely sign it.”

Madam Bai glanced at the documents Bai Shan took out from his storage space without even looking at them, perfectly behaving like a robot.

"I'll go right away. Do you have any other instructions, Father?"

Once the plan begins, the capital star will likely be unable to remain. If Kyle weren't so useless, he wouldn't have needed to personally intervene. As expected, a clone is just a clone—irritable and short-sighted. If it were him, he would have planned carefully and might have taken over the entire empire much earlier.

"Move the Bai family members away from the capital star to our territory, and take Zeye and Kailin with them as well."

"Father, are you afraid the mission will fail?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Bai Shan looking at him sharply, and he immediately changed his words, "Father, I was wrong."

"The mission will naturally not fail, but this place can no longer be left. I want to establish a glorious empire that belongs to my Bai family."

He had been looking forward to this moment since he was a child.

...

On the way to the palace, looking at the document in her hand, Madam Bai lightly traced her fingers across it; if she wanted, she could read what was written inside.

Over the years, she has never interfered excessively in what Baishan does, or rather, Baishan does not allow her to interfere, nor does he interfere with what she does.

At the palace gate.

She didn't actually need to inform them, but for some reason today she wanted to procrastinate on writing.

Sophia hopped out from a distance, "Aunt Bai, you're here."

As he spoke, he took Madam Bai's hand and led her inside. Madam Bai subconsciously tucked the documents behind her back.

The little princess has always been mischievous, and she can even get pranked when she's not paying attention.

This action immediately alerted Sophia.

"What is Aunt Bai hiding behind her back? She's so mysterious. I want to see."

"It's nothing, Princess, you're overthinking it."

Madam Bai's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't expect the little girl to be so clever and quick-witted.

"Wow, this must be interesting. It's even a paper version, how mysterious!"

The empire's timber is rarely used to make paper; it is generally only chosen for extremely valuable items, especially those bearing the Bai family crest.

As she spoke, she snatched it away effortlessly. Perhaps it was because the topic of Madam Bai's mother was brought up that she lost her guard, so it was understandable that the document was taken away by a little girl.

The little girl, holding the documents, walked forward with a smile.

He bumped into someone's thigh.
