"Let the world forget?" Helian Nie frowned, his hand unconsciously stroking the jade ring on his thumb, weighing the pros and cons of Helian Si's words.
Seeing this attitude, Helian Si knew there was hope, and his fawning became even more genuine, adding fuel to the fire.
"Yes, Father, you see, you have already unified the world. Why add more bloodshed to the world's emperors?"
"As long as my daughter waves her hand, they will forget all these things, whether it's the eldest brother, the fairy brother, or that sister, and they will never have such wrong thoughts as rebellion again."
Helian Si went on and on, listing all the benefits of this method, and Helian Nie listened attentively without stopping him.
By the end, Helian Si's mouth was dry from talking so much. He stopped, took a sip of water, and looked expectantly at Helian Nie, waiting for Helian Nie's reply.
"Are you sure what you're saying is to save me some trouble?"
Helian Nie did not answer Helian Si's question, but looked at Helian Si with a playful expression on his handsome face that showed he understood but did not say anything.
He claimed that all his years of hard work for unifying the world, coupled with a wave of his hand to win over the hearts of all under the Northern Yin, were for his own benefit, saving himself trouble and effort.
It's unbelievable that this ugly thing could say such a thing. Don't think he doesn't know; these are all excuses he's using to get rid of the big brat and the remnants of Dongchen's faction.
Having his little scheme exposed so bluntly, Helian Si felt incredibly guilty.
"Ahem, ahem, well, Father, you're overthinking it. It's true that part of my feelings were for my eldest brother and the immortal brother."
"but!"
"Father, you must believe me. The main reason I came up with this plan is for your sake!"
Helian Nie didn't interrupt Helian Si, but listened calmly as Helian Si spoke his unconscionable words. Helian Si's voice grew softer and softer as he spoke.
"Alright, alright, Father, I admit I do have such thoughts, so Father, could you please grant my request?"
She simply couldn't bear to watch her eldest brother and her immortal brother suffer such a terrible fate.
"Your Majesty, it's time for us to set off." Changying walked over and reminded Helian Nie.
Helian Nie raised his hand slightly and patted Helian Si's hand, which was flailing against his arm. He glanced at Helian Si with his narrow, peach-blossom eyes.
Helian Si pouted, silently withdrawing her hand. Fine, fine, she wouldn't say anything then. Helian Nie stood up and strode towards the front of the army.
Looking at Helian Nie's tall and imposing back, Helian Si silently shed tears in his heart. It seems he can only think of another way. Alas.
"I'll grant your request out of respect for you."
A sinister, low voice came from the front. Helian Si paused in his action of brushing the dust off his long skirt, stunned. Wh-what?
"Aren't you coming?"
After a long while, not hearing any footsteps from Helian Si following behind, Helian Nie stopped, turned around, and looked at the stunned Helian Si.
So, so Father Emperor has agreed to my proposed method?
Helian Si's eyes lit up suddenly. He patted her a couple of times and then trotted towards Helian Nie, excitedly leaping onto her back.
"Thank you, Father! You are truly the most wise, powerful, magnanimous, and understanding father in the world!"
Helian Nie's handsome face was striking; he raised an eyebrow. None of these words of praise seemed appropriate for him. He was never one to hold a grudge and was not a kind person. He simply didn't want to make this ugly thing sad.
