It was unclear whether Zhao Hanyue knew the secret of the jade pendant.
"What does my brother mean...?"
The Emperor looked at Prince Mu with a deep gaze.
Li Xiaochen's expression also turned serious. If this matter involved Xin Xin...!
“What I mean is that Princess Pingning’s background may be related to that jade pendant. The jade pendant disappeared as soon as Pingning was born and has never reappeared in all these years. Also, after Pingning returned to the capital, where did her strange abilities come from? I suspect that the jade pendant may be in Pingning’s possession.”
Prince Mu then shared his thoughts.
"However, it is still unknown whether this matter can be confirmed. At the time, it was just a rumor, but it attracted spies from various countries to come to Xia Kingdom to investigate. If the emperor had not secretly sent people to stop them, Zhao Hanyue would probably have died long ago."
"Your Majesty, if this is true, and that jade pendant has such power, then Princess Pingning might really be able to bring harmony to the world? Perhaps Your Majesty could make use of her?"
What Prince Mu really wanted to say was just this last sentence. He knew from Li Xiaochen that Ping Ning was exceptionally capable, practically defying the heavens. If her heart was with the Xia Kingdom, then the Xia Kingdom would never fall.

Li Xiaochen's gaze was deep as he stared directly at the Emperor, showing no fear whatsoever. His words were all about protecting Lin Yuxin.
