"Elder brother, why did you do this?"
Helian Si found it laughable, even absurd. His father's accident wasn't because Xiling and Nanli were cunning and difficult to deal with.
It was because there was a traitor in the army, and the eldest prince was involved in it. It's really ridiculous.
Helian Ci's dark eyes showed a hint of pity. The little coward had been carefree and thoughtless since childhood, and now he was being forced to learn about these power struggles.
Moreover, this matter concerns the Emperor and the eldest brother, both people the little coward cares about deeply, so it's far too cruel.
Helian Ci pondered for a long time, still unsure how to bring it up with Helian Si, his hand clenching tighter and tighter.
Helian You was also feeling bad. He quietly walked to Helian Si's side, put his arm around Helian Si's shoulder, and comforted him silently.
"Eldest brother, do you want Father's life?"
Helian Si spoke, his voice unusually cold and unexpectedly calm. Yes, how could she have forgotten?
The initial concept she set for the relationship between her father and eldest brother was that the eldest brother harbored resentment towards their father, but over time...
She naively believed that the rift between her father and her eldest brother had been resolved.
Helian You suddenly looked at Helian Si, his handsome face showing undisguised shock and astonishment.
The second prince only said half of what he was saying; he only had this thought in his mind. Why is the princess so sure?
Helian Ci's expression was equally complex. When his subordinate reported this matter to him, although he knew he already had the answer in his heart, the undeniable facts were right in front of him.
It's inevitable that my emotions will fluctuate. You little coward, you shouldn't know about the affair between your father and Helian Yi.
"I see."
Silence meant consent. Helian Si turned and walked towards the exit of the mansion. The swirling snowflakes landed on his dark hair, making it feel especially cold.
Helian Si seemed oblivious. She was going to find her eldest brother. All of this was her plan. If she had any complaints, she could just tell herself.
Helian Ci frowned, his dark eyes looking at Helian You beside him, and said, "Go with the little princess."
Helian You nodded, picked up the paper umbrella placed to the side, and strode after Helian Si. Right now, his eldest brother was attacking their father.
That would mean becoming their enemy. Although the eldest prince also loves his younger sister, given the current situation, who can guarantee that the eldest prince won't do anything to his younger sister?
After all, the Emperor's favorite person was his younger sister.
Helian Ci stood with his hands behind his back, watching the two figures leave. His handsome face was furrowed with brows. He leaped away and left the Prime Minister's residence.
Inside the carriage heading to Prince Yi's residence,
“Royal sister…” Helian You looked at Helian Si, who was sitting silently in the carriage, and hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
As for his eldest brother, he didn't know how to persuade him. It was a fact that his eldest brother was involved. This was treason.
"I'm fine."
Helian Si was very calm, calmer than ever before. She just felt very sad, so in the end she didn't change anything.
I really am useless. No wonder, no wonder Fu Lian looked at me with that worried yet hesitant expression. No wonder Fu Lian told me to pay more attention to my relationship with my father and eldest brother.
She had reminded herself, but she still did nothing. It was useless; she was really useless.
"Third brother, father, everything will be alright, right?"
Helian Si raised her eyes and looked at Helian You, seemingly calm, but the tightly clenched fingers under her cloak revealed her fear and unease.
