Wen Changle sat upright in the main seat, watching the scene unfold before her, her charming face as black as could be.

Inside the side hall, along a section of the wall, green vines and moss covered the entire surface, casting shadows...

A wheelchair was parked nearby, and in it sat a sickly-white-faced boy with long, black hair that fell quietly to his waist.

With her long, slender eyelashes slightly lowered, she listened to the sounds coming from behind the wall, her dark eyes filled with an unfathomable darkness.

Amidst the wails of agony, the little girl's gloating, sweet voice continued.

Suddenly, Helian Ci chuckled softly, a chilling smile playing on his thin, crimson lips. So this was the little princess that Helian Yi kept talking about?

That's really... interesting.

Helian Ci's dark eyes fell on the gleaming dagger he was toying with in his hand, and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.

He didn't believe a word of it—no favoritism, no father's will, that father of theirs.

He never cared about his insignificant offspring; all he cared about was supreme power and interests.

Perhaps there's something about the little princess that their father might want. Let him think about it, what could it be?

Could it be a marriage alliance between some country? Tsk.

I have to say, kid, you've pretty much figured it out, sigh!

Helian Si had no idea what the others were thinking, but she had completed the task her little one had given her, and she was in a wonderful mood.

Her rosy little face beamed with the most smug smile, her short legs swayed with a triumphant gait, and her chubby little hands were tucked behind her back.

Like an old leader inspecting the work of several subordinates, he strode out of Ronghua Palace with his bodyguard Yue'er, looking very proud and arrogant.

Upon arriving at the entrance of Ronghua Palace, she even waved her little hand with a smile to Cai Mama, who had followed her out.

"That's enough for now, Sisi, I'm leaving. I'll come again next time!"

Granny Cai felt her body sway slightly, and the fat on her old face twitched. "Little ancestor, please don't come again. You hit Master Hui, and her hands are still shaking."

However, Sisi pretended not to see Granny Cai's less-than-pleasant expression, put her little hands behind her back, and looked up at the sky filled with rosy clouds.

Ah! Gently I came, just as gently I go; I wave my sleeves, without taking away a single cloud.

The little girl waved her sleeve appropriately, touched her non-existent mustache, and nodded her head with an air of maturity.

"Hmm, what a beautiful poem! What a beautiful poem! Sisi is so cultured!"

"Granny, Granny, what's wrong, Granny?"

"Granny, someone come here! Granny has fainted! Quickly, go and call the imperial physician!" came the chaotic and panicked shouts of the palace servants behind him.

Helian Si turned around and saw that Cai Mama, who had been standing perfectly fine just moments before, was now unconscious and lying in the arms of a palace maid.

The eunuch beside her was frantically pinching Cai Mama's philtrum. In that instant, the entrance to Ronghua Palace was in complete chaos.

"Little, little princess, what, what should we do? Should we go back and check?" Yue'er asked fearfully and worriedly.

Helian Si blinked his bright, grape-like eyes and shook his head firmly.

"No, no, Sisi and Sister Yue'er aren't imperial physicians, so it's no use for them to go. Besides, if Sisi goes, Sisi is afraid that Granny will do more than just faint."

He might even vomit blood. Sigh, young people, they're just too hot-tempered!

Sisi shook her little head, put her short hands behind her back, and walked away bathed in the glow of the setting sun.
