The thirteenth princess said happily that in her heart, her second brother was only a brother in name only. Only the eldest prince was her real brother. Now that her brother's enemy was dead, she was naturally happy.

Upon hearing his sister's words, the eldest prince smiled, but he did not directly state that he was certain to become the heir to the empire.

“Sister, although my second brother is dead, his mother is not someone to be trifled with. As the chief of staff of the northern front, she is probably rushing back to the capital anxiously after hearing the news of his death. When she returns, there will likely be a lot of trouble.”

When the thirteenth princess heard the eldest prince mention that the second prince's mother, who was the chief of staff of the empire's northern front, would be returning, a depressed expression appeared on her face.

"Hmm...that woman is wicked. When she was in the palace, she always scolded us children."

Upon hearing this, the eldest prince recalled the past, when he and the other princes and princesses were students learning various subjects in the palace, and the second prince's mother was one of the teachers who guided them in tactics.

Back then, these students not only had to listen to her long and tedious lectures every day, but also had mountains of homework to do after class.

Furthermore, she was personally appointed by the emperor, and the princes and princesses dared not disobey. They had no free time at all, either attending classes or completing the assignments she gave them.

This situation continued until the outbreak of war on the northern front, when she was transferred to the front lines, which finally brought an end to the conflict.
