[He's still just a child, curious about everything.]
Realizing that his little actions had been caught, Xie Rang's body stiffened visibly, and then his gaze swept towards Yun Qing as if his hair had been pricked up.
"I will wash it myself."
It was as if he was afraid that if he was a moment too late, Yun Qing would change her mind and wash him herself.
Yun Qing remained calm and said, "Alright, then I'll take my leave. Your Majesty, please feel free to call me anytime if you need anything."
I understand, kids are shy.
Xie Rang: ...
hateful!
Xie Rang's gaze suddenly darkened only after Yun Qingzhen closed the door and left.
Having grown up in the cold palace, the things he experienced taught him many lessons. Even when he was alone, he found it difficult to completely let down his guard. Fortunately, Li Yunqing was indeed someone worth winning over.
The other party clearly saw him as a harmless and pitiful child, but little did they know that he was not only far from innocent, but was also secretly lurking, waiting to bite off his prey's neck one day.

Yunqing saw Uncle Jiang again after leaving the house.
"Young Master, what are your plans for His Majesty?"
Uncle Jiang's brows betrayed a quiet worry.
"I brought him into the mansion today because of the urgency of the matter. Once everything is ready, I will send him back to the palace tomorrow."
There are too many secrets in the Li family that cannot be pried into by outsiders. Even though Xie Rang is still young, Yun Qing cannot ignore the possibility that he may become a tyrant in the future. Such a person must be exceptionally intelligent. It would be bad if he discovered something in the future.
"It's good that you understand, young master." Uncle Jiang stood beside her and said softly, "There's unrest at the border, and the head of the family and the lady of the house are temporarily unable to return to the capital. They sent word that you should take care of yourself."
A month is enough time for news of Yunqing's critical illness to reach the border, but they are separated by thousands of miles and there is little they can do. They have to guard the border and cannot reunite with their eldest daughter, which is rather sad.
Yun Qing couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow, not only for the original owner of this body, but also for this era, for it was not easy for anyone.
She sighed, "I know, tell my parents and little sister not to worry."
Uncle Jiang lowered his head: "The message was sent on the day the young master woke up."
"Furthermore, if you truly intend to stand on His Majesty's side, please prepare in advance and refrain from showing off your talents."
Yun Qing nodded: "I know. His Majesty is young, so we will select two more from the secret guards to serve him."
Historically, Xie Rang was clearly someone who didn't care about merits or demerits, and did whatever he wanted. He didn't explain to others how he bided his time in the palace and eventually seized power. Even historical records are scarce on this matter, and Yun Qing still needs to investigate it in detail.
While guiding the little tyrant correctly, Yun Qing tries not to interfere too much.
"good."
Uncle Jiang also thought the arrangement was reasonable and went down to make preparations.
Around the same time, Xie Rang finished washing up and came out of his room.
It was only then that Yun Qing noticed that his face was very pale, which may have given him a gloomy look.
Mr. Yu's examination results were not optimistic: "His Majesty has many hidden injuries and suffers considerable losses. He must take good care of himself, otherwise... he will die young."
Not unexpected.
Yun Qing didn't hesitate much: "Prescribe medicine for His Majesty."
A hint of pity appeared in her eyes as she looked at Xie Rang.
Look how terrified the child is! But then again, who wouldn't be afraid of death?
