"Your Majesty, I dare to ask, but the little princess has always regarded Si Beitaohua as... cough, fairy sister. Why not explain the reason to the little princess?"

This was something that Changying couldn't understand at all.

Helian Nie sipped his tea, his narrow, almond-shaped eyes giving Chang Ying a cold glance, his voice sinister.

"Why bother explaining to that ugly thing? If she finds out that Si Beitaohua is a man, she'll just be even more lusting after that guy's face."

Long Eagle: "..."

What the Emperor said seemed to make some sense, considering the little princess's lust for the Prime Minister's good looks.

Thinking back to the little princess's birthday banquet, when she said that it was okay for women, Changying's tense face began to crack.

"Dongchen will be destroyed sooner or later. There's no need for Ugly Thing and Si Bei Tao Hua to have too much interaction."

Helian Nie got up and walked to the window, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the sycamore leaves falling with the autumn wind, his peach blossom eyes deep and unfathomable.

Looking at the overall situation in the world, Dongchen is the only major power that can stand shoulder to shoulder with Beiyin. Rather than annexing smaller countries,

Instead of instilling fear in other nations and forcing them to unite against the Northern Yin, it would be better to annihilate the powerful Eastern Chen state, thereby deterring other nations.

Now, with the Dongchen royal family and the Empress's maternal family both in power, he's just waiting to reap the benefits. However, now is not the best time.

The murderous intent that intimidated Si Beitaohua at the birthday banquet, seemingly a display of imperial rage, was in reality just a ploy by him.

If he doesn't let the people of Dongchen think that Helian Nie is arrogant and conceited, how can he lower their guard against Beiyin?

Another autumn breeze blew, and a sycamore leaf drifted through the window and landed on Helian Nie's shoulder.

Helian Nie's handsome face, his eyelids slightly raised, raised his hand to pick up the paulownia leaf, toying with it in his hand, his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed.

One day, with swords and horses, we will conquer mountains and rivers, and all that can be seen will be the territory of our Northern Yin.

Yongqing Palace

Clutching two scriptures, Sisi toddled back to Yongqing Palace with whimpering little steps.

"Sisi is back! Oh? Second brother, what are you doing?"

Sisi looked at the palace servants going in and out of the Second Prince's room and Consort Lian's room with a strange expression. Huh, is it a big cleaning?

Hearing the little girl's voice, Helian Ci turned his wheelchair and saw the little girl standing at the palace gate, her face showing some strange expressions.

With a slight smile, he beckoned to the little girl. This time, Sisi didn't hesitate and ran over to Helian Ci with her short legs.

"Second brother, what are you doing?"

Helian Ci didn't answer the little girl immediately, but instead patted her head.

"Sisi, have you eaten? Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry, I've already eaten. I ate at Father's place and I'm full."

Sisi raised her chubby little hand and patted her round little belly, her little face beaming with joy.

"Sisi is so good."

The little girl's round belly deepened the smile in Helian Ci's dark eyes; chubby baby.

"Yes, yes, Sisi is so good, the best little cutie." Sisi was overjoyed.

"Second brother and mother are moving to another palace. Sisi must eat well, understand?"

Since Wen Changle's death, his mother has changed a lot. Although he was reluctant to let her go, he was even more unwilling to see his mother and the little coward have a falling out.

"Okay, okay, okay..."

The little head that was nodding suddenly stopped, and her grape-like, watery eyes blinked.

"Second Brother is moving to another place? He won't be living with Sisi anymore. Why, why?"
