"I know you're unhappy about passing the throne to Yu'er, but remember my words: only Leng Yu can protect the Daning Kingdom. I've left you here today to tell you not to have any unrealistic ideas or do anything that goes against human ethics. Although I'm old, I'm not blind or deaf. Xiao Lingzi was seriously injured and Xiao Shuangzi was killed. These were definitely not accidental events. Someone must have done it intentionally.

"Xi'er, Yu'er promised me that after he ascends the throne, he will not deprive you and Ming'er of your titles, and he will also treat Yu'er well. So, I hope that nothing untoward will happen during this period of time. It will not do you any good."
He seemed to see through Leng Xi's determination not to sit still and wait for death, and kept reminding him.
