Mo Yan: "..."

I'm so happy that my granddaughter reacted so quickly.

"Then you still need to learn how to be a butler."

"Grandmother, can we leave this to the nanny? I'm a princess, and all I need to do is be happy. What do you say? Even if I never get married, I can still live a good life, right?"

"No need to worry about money, no need to worry about being bullied?"

Of course, this is under the condition that there are no villains plotting against you and no one suspecting you. But with the current emperor, it's really... even if you are lazy and pleasure-seeking, he will still think that you are doing it on purpose.

"What if the nannies under your command deceive you? What if they spend all your money? What if they do bad things behind your back?"

"Xin'er, you don't have to study, you don't have to work hard, but you must learn to manage the household and know whether they are lying to you."

Xin'er seemed to understand but not quite. The emperor outside nodded and then left.

My sister really only wants to protect this granddaughter, so he will also protect Xin'er to some extent.

He used to think about marrying Xin'er to his grandson, but now he thinks it's better to forget it. There's no need for those good-for-nothings.

As for marrying a prince, that's impossible; they're too different generations. He was just thinking about it for a moment, but now he's come to his senses.

He needs to think it over again. Even if he has to deal with Han Hao in the future, he has to think about his sister and Xin'er, whom she cares about.

Only in this way can we avoid chilling the hearts of those ministers.

Okay, it wasn't all for the girl after all; he just thought that since he had taken back military power, he should give her some incentives.

The emperor is very excited, extremely excited.

He wanted to go back, find Mo Xi, and figure out what this so-called Emperor Development System was. If it was really as powerful as that otherworldly soul claimed, then he would definitely live forever.

Since he is immortal, his sons are no longer of any importance.

Since he won't die, there's no need for a crown prince.

After the emperor left, Mo Yan took Xin'er to the back mountain to gather herbs and tapped Xin'er's head.

Were you serious about what you just said?

Mo Yan always felt that Xin'er wasn't just putting on an act.

"Which sentence did Grandmother say? Was it that Xin'er isn't looking for a husband, or something else?"

Mo Yan knew this girl was smart. "You're really smart, girl. Actually, whether you look for it or not isn't important."

"At our level, as long as we don't get discovered, it's fine whether we find someone or not, or how many we do, but it has to be consensual."

Xin'er: "!!!!?"

Xin'er's eyes widened. What had she just heard?

"Grandmother, you, you, you..."

Mo Yan raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong? Isn't that right? If you like someone, then find a few; if you don't like them, then say goodbye. Isn't that better? You're a princess, why can't you be selective?"

Xin'er: "!!!?"

Oh my God! Oh my God!

"Grandmother! I can't accept this! Even if I were to find someone, I'd only find one, and we could live a good life together. If things don't work out, we can get a divorce. But to find several..."

After saying that, Xin'er realized that her grandmother was laughing, and she stomped her foot in anger, "Grandmother, you're teasing me!"

Mo Yan laughed out loud, "I was just teasing you, and I was also thinking that way. I'm just telling you that you don't need to get too upset over men."

There are many ways to live life; your own happiness is the most important. If a man likes you, that's great; if not, just let him go. Don't make yourself suffer; it's not worth it, do you understand?

Xin'er nodded. "Xin'er understands. Grandmother, why are you saying all this now?"

She's still so young. Grandma said all this because... Grandma felt she really couldn't save her...

Thinking of this, Xin'er felt very sad. Knowing that her grandmother was still thinking of her at this time, she was even more determined to be obedient, study hard, and make a good life for herself in the future.

She wanted her grandmother to see that everything her grandmother had done hadn't been in vain, and that she was truly doing very well.

"Good that you understand. Now that's settled, we'll spend the day here in the mountains."

Xin'er: ? ? ? ?

"We have no tinder, no knife, no food, Xin'er, what do you suggest we do?"

Xin'er: "!!!"

While Xin'er was trying to survive in the wild, the emperor had already rushed back and imprisoned Mo Xi.

Mo Xi: "???"

Mo Xi was inexplicably captured and brought back, and then beaten up. He is now on the verge of death.

"Tell me, what's wrong with your system?"

The emperor didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Mo Xi: "!!!"

Mo Xi's eyes widened in surprise; she hadn't expected her father to know.

Seeing Mo Xi's expression, the emperor knew it was true.

No wonder Mo Xi is so arrogant, not even putting the Princess in her eyes. She's got powerful backing.

To put it simply, the reason he hasn't made a name for himself yet isn't because he lacks ambition, but because he's still looking for someone who can give him everything—Han Yin, whom the system wants him to find.

"Father, I don't know what you're talking about, nor do I know anything about any system."

Mo Xi knew very well what kind of person her father was; he wouldn't allow any dissenting voices in court.

Although the country is peaceful and prosperous, everyone lives in fear, afraid that something might happen to them at any moment.

He just wanted to compete, but now his father is old, and to put it bluntly, he might be old in a few years...

"Don't you know?" the emperor scoffed.

He can be ruthless towards the girl he grew up with, so how much could he possibly love a son who is not important to him?

They broke his legs, severed his tendons, peeled off his nails, and were about to pull out his teeth.
