"Wenling"

Princess Wenling who was standing there in a huge shock suddenly heard the familiar but sharp voice. It took her a few minutes to recognize the person from the voice but when she did her face went a little pale.

It was her Elder Brother.

She turned around instantly and looked at her brother with guilt-filled eyes.

Seeing her brother's furious face, she knew very well that he had already heard what he should not have.

"Elder Brother…I …just…"

"Shut up."

Zhao Zhuang Chen said sharply and Princess Wenling flinched at the sharpness of the voice. Raking his hand through his hair, Zhao Zhuang Chen paced in that corridor.

"You don't even know what you have done."

Zhao Zhuang Chen stopped suddenly and pointed his finger at his sister's face. He was filled with so much rage that for a moment he felt like killing the woman in front of him.

It was just the little bit of rationality inside his mind that reminded him that the woman standing in front of him was none other than his own sister.

The sister he has spoiled since childhood.

He saw as she bit her lips …an act he knew very well she does whenever she tries to stop her tears.

Sure enough, the next moment, a tear slid down from Princess Wenling's beautiful eyes.

"Elder Brother…I don't want him to hate me because of the last attack."

The little bit of brother-sister love that had appeared inside his heart vanished suddenly and Zhao ZhaunG Chen looked at his sister with a blank face.

He tried to remember if there had been even one time when Zhao Wenling had not been selfish like this. In fact, he has always adhered to her wishes and tried to give her everything she needed.

He has never cared if he had to sacrifice his own happiness to complete her demands. However, this time was different.

Because this time it was not about something else but the throne.

It was the throne he had always desired …since the moment he had got to know what power it holds. He would not let it go from his hands for anyone's sake and this anyone included his sister too.

"Zhao Wenling"

Zhao Zhuang Chen suddenly stepped in front of his sister.

"I will clean the mess you have created for me this time."

Zhao Wenling's smile widened as she thought that her brother has forgiven her. However, the smile vanished soon as Zhao Zhuang Chen continued

"But this is the last time I am going to do that. I need Xi Ying on my side. I need that man and I will not tolerate anyone making him go against me…even if it is you."

Zhao Zhuang Chen spat out and then left from there after giving his sleeve a jerk in anger.

Standing there in the corridor, Princess Wenling felt very alone even though her nanny was standing a few steps away in the corner.

Only now did she understand what actually Zhao Zhuang Chen meant by clearing this mess. He will tell Xi Ying the truth…the truth she was hiding.

At the same time, she remembered what Xi Ying had said to her before he left.

'The woman I love…'

Her lips trembled and her fists clenched and she whispered again and again.

"Rui can't be that woman…."

The old nanny who was standing in the corner looked at the princess' back with scrunched eyebrows. Her face just showed how disgusted she was with the princess at this moment.

'This stupid woman was no longer of any work.'

The old nanny thought that she should tell her master about this.

With a frustrated sigh, she walked towards the princess to console her and take her back to her Courtyard.

"Nanny, why doesn't he still look at me?"

Princess Wenling said in a very sad voice when she felt the old nanny's presence beside herself. The old nanny's lips twitched.

A moment later, she took away the sword from the princess' hands and said

"This servant had already told Your Highness. Men don't like women to do all these things. If women also started to do all this then what will be the difference between men and women."

Princess Wenling however just stared at her nanny as she threw away her sword on the ground with a disgusted face.

"Nanny had said the same words to me five years ago and I had left all this…just for him. But he still didn't look at me."

Princess Wenling's voice held despair as she said these words.

This time, the old nanny went speechless. She didn't have anything to say. Princess Wenling noticed this and smiled bitterly.

She picked her sword from the ground and then walked to her courtyard alone.

While the old nanny also started to realize that slowly and slowly, trapping the princess with her words was becoming difficult for her.

"This one greets His Majesty."

Standing inside the Imperial Study room, just in front of Zhao Wang Lei, Zhao Zhang Wei greeted him respectfully.

It was very difficult to believe that just a few moments ago, the same man was talking about Zhao Wang Lei with so much hatred in his eyes and killing him.

At this moment, his eyes held only one thing…that was the respect that one should have for the Emperor.

Perhaps this was the reason Zhao Wang Lei has never doubted Zhao Zhang Wei until today.

Zhao Wang Lei who was comfortable leaning on his chair turned the page of the book he was reading nonchalantly. He didn't even raise his head as he said

"Sit."

Zhao Zhang Wei walked to the chair placed on his side of the table without any questions and sat down.

Zhao Wang Lei didn't say anything for almost the next half an hour. However, Zhao Zhang Wei never complained and sat there patiently.

He actually knew that this was a mind game that Zhao Wang Lei thought worked with him. Making him wait on him was a way to intimidate him by telling him that he was still nothing in front of him so that whatever he would want to know later, he would tell him under that fear and intimidation.

Finally, Zhao Wang Lei put down his book and looked at him. His face didn't have any emotion and he directly asked him what he had wanted to ask.

"You met Empress Mother, Zhang Wei?"

Zhao Zhang Wei's eyes flickered. Without any change in his expression, he said respectfully.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

However, the little bit of change in his eyes was surely noticed by Zhao Wang Lei. His jaw clenched and he asked almost immediately.

"Was Prime Minister Xi also there? Did she say something to him?"
