"Because I will inherit the throne of Xiyan Kingdom."
"You? But you are not the prince." Liu Wuyou was confused. She had never thought of this reason.
"The prince is my shield."
"...Then this prince is too miserable."
Xi Yanmo shook his head and said, "He did this voluntarily. To win the favor of the Emperor, he volunteered to become the Crown Prince and serve as my shield."
Liu Wuyou was even more confused. She asked curiously, "Why is your father so partial to you? What's so special about you?"
"It's not me that's being partial to me, it's my mother's children that are being partial to me."
Liu Wuyou nodded, so the emperor of Xiyan Kingdom is a romantic man.
Because he loves a woman, even Jiangshan only wants to have a child with her...
"But this kind of news should be top secret of your royal family. Why do so many people in our Dongling Kingdom know about it?" If the whole world knew about this secret, then the shield of the Crown Prince of Xiyan Kingdom would be useless.
Xi Yanmo's face darkened and he said, "This is why I want to stay in the Dongling Kingdom Palace."
"Do you suspect that your country's spies are collaborating with people from Dongling Country?"
"It's not suspicion, it's certainty. The person who leaked the information has been caught, but it's not convenient for us to take direct action against the people from Dongling Country."
Liu Wuyou suddenly sighed.
Xi Yanmo looked puzzled and asked, "Why? Now that you know the truth, you don't want to help me?"
"No." Liu Wuyou waved his hand and sighed again.
She said helplessly, "I just find this kind of fighting so annoying. Now that we know who's colluding with your country, why don't you just tell the Emperor of Dongling and let him handle it?"
"Emperor of Dongling? How could you be so disrespectful towards your Majesty?"
Liu Wuyou coughed lightly and said awkwardly, "I'm just putting myself in your shoes. Since you said it's inconvenient to take direct action, it means this person is quite powerful. If he's powerful and collaborating with the enemy, if our Majesty knew about this, we would definitely deal with him immediately. How simple is that?"
"Unless..." Liu Wuyou frowned, unless this person was originally instructed by the Emperor of Dongling Kingdom.
Then it is very likely that this person not only knows the secret that the Seventh Prince is the true heir, but also knows many other confidential matters of the Xiyan Kingdom!
Xi Yanmo nodded to Liu Wuyou.
"Your guess is correct. This matter was indeed ordered by your Majesty. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been known to everyone. You are the only noble lady who didn't know about this matter among those who entered the palace this time."
The last sentence was said with quite a bit of disgust.
Liu Wuyou said righteously, "This proves that my father was not involved in this matter. If he didn't know, then I naturally didn't know either. Our whole family is innocent."
"How do you know it's not just that your father didn't tell you?" Xi Yanmo asked back.
Liu Wuyou rolled her eyes at him and said, "I am the only daughter of my father. If he knew such important news, he would definitely tell me in advance, so that I can know."
"You must please me and marry me?"
"No! He told me to stay away from you! My father always wants his family to be safe and healthy. He won't let me jump into the fire pit."
"That's a pity, you are already in the fire pit now."
"That may not be the case. I only asked you to explain clearly, but I didn't say I would continue to help you. This matter is much more complicated than I originally thought. I have to think about it carefully. If I'm not careful, I might lose my life. Tsk, too dangerous."
