However, it's best to keep it for yourself, as that would save you a lot of trouble. Plus, you can see it whenever you want.
…
On his way home after leaving the imperial study, Yan Yunjing was met with a puzzled guard: "Your Highness, are we really going to help the young emperor?"
Doesn't the prince dislike the young emperor? Why is he helping him? Besides, the prince shouldn't have told him about this in the first place. All the civil and military officials will see that he is incompetent and ignorant, and completely out of the loop.
Wouldn't this be better for the prince? Why did the prince still tell her?
Yan Yun glanced at the other party and said, "Foreigners are the ones we should oppose the most. No matter what my relationship with him is, we absolutely cannot let foreigners see us make a fool of ourselves."
"Your Highness is so righteous. So that's what Your Highness was thinking."
Yan Yunjing didn't say anything more, but closed his eyes as if he wanted to rest.
…
After returning to her palace, Wan Ge immediately summoned the commander of the secret guards.
The other party was somewhat surprised when they knelt before Wan Ge, after all, apart from secretly protecting His Majesty, His Majesty had never seemed to ask them to do anything.
He even wondered if His Majesty was unaware of their existence.
But then I thought about that day, when the late emperor and I were both investigating, how could we not know? Perhaps it was just because of his current situation that there was no need for him to do anything.
"Your Majesty, is there anything you require of me?"
Wan Ge nodded: "Are the guards who protected me today present?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Let them all come to see me."
The other side blew a whistle, and in no time, sixteen people appeared neatly in front of Wan Ge.
"Is this the person who protected the orphan today?"
"Yes, the other sixteen are with Princess Mingyue, and the remaining five hundred and ninety-nine are hiding in various places, waiting for His Majesty's orders."
Including the commander, the late emperor left her with 632 people.
However, if what Wan Ge sensed tonight was on her side, it was only the person on duty today.
So these are the sixteen people in front of him, but Wan Ge doesn't feel any familiarity with them and is quite certain that they are not him.
Although he later re-marked himself, sometimes he might not be able to sense him due to the influence of the world.
However, Wan Ge realized that since she could sense it, she should be able to sense it again when she got close.
"Are they on duty today? Have they always been with me?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, our guards only change shifts at dusk."
When Wan Ge heard him say that, she realized he wasn't one of her people. Thinking about this, she felt a little disappointed. It seemed that it would be quite difficult for her to see him again.
After all, she couldn't just randomly ask the Regent to let her see his bodyguards. If she did, he would definitely suspect she had ulterior motives.
"Alright, then let them all go. Also, have someone investigate the purpose of the Chess Kingdom's visit."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The other party replied and left immediately.
Wan Ge lay back down on the bed, but then she thought that at least she had a purpose and wasn't completely clueless, which was a good thing.
…
Yan Yunjing suddenly woke up in the carriage. When he saw the guard's face magnified in front of him, Yan Yunjing's face darkened instantly. He kicked the guard back to the seat he was originally sitting in.
"Why are you getting so close?" Yan Yunjing's face darkened.
Seeing that the prince seemed angry, the guard quickly explained, "I noticed that Your Highness doesn't seem to have rested well, as you're sweating a lot, so I wanted to ask if Your Highness would like to go back and rest soon."
"Hmm, tell them to hurry up, but haven't they arrived at the Prince's residence yet?"
"We're almost there, just two more intersections away."
"Hmm." Yan Yunjing gave a curt "hmm."
At this moment, the other party cautiously inquired, "Your Highness, what did you dream about? Why are you sweating so much?"
"Shut up." Yan Yunjing gave the other person a cold glare, and the other person immediately shut up and stopped asking questions.
…
Upon returning to the palace, Yan Yunjing immediately ordered water to be prepared so he could take a bath.
He would take a bath every time he came back after going out, so they had already prepared it.
Yan Yunjing immediately found her usual bathing tub, which, besides the warm water, had a stove for scenting clothes and a bottle of cedar incense.
Just smelling this cedar scent reminded him of the fragrance he had smelled on the emperor, which he thought was even better.
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered the dream he had in the carriage.
In the dream, I was in the familiar Imperial Study, but... I did some things I shouldn't have done inside the Imperial Study.
In his dream, the little emperor was pinned down by him, his snow-white skin fully exposed before him.
At this moment, the warm water seemed less hot than his body, and his well-defined knuckles slowly moved downwards.
…
By the time he regained consciousness, half an hour had passed.
Yan Yunjing raised his hand and slapped himself. What was he thinking? His father and so many others had placed high hopes on him, how could he... how could he have such thoughts?
Besides, I've spent so much time with the young emperor; it's not like we just met. How could it suddenly...?
Even if the young emperor's behavior today changed his opinion somewhat, it shouldn't have made him like this. It must be because the young emperor wasn't dressed properly.
If Wan Ge knew what he was thinking at this moment, she would ask her where she wasn't dressed properly. It was just because of him that she dressed quickly and didn't fasten her clothes very tightly. Even if the neckline was slightly loose, it wasn't a big deal. It barely reached her collarbone, and you could only see a little bit of her collarbone.
