1587 How Could He Bear To Let Her Leave


“Nonsense. What do you mean that I don’t have work? I have to take my bath and go to sleep after this meal. And then I need to meet Xinxin tomorrow to tour the city. There are so many things waiting to be done,” Yaoyao said matter-of-factly.


Beitang You shook his head. The shadow hanging over his heart dissipated somewhat.


He picked up his chopsticks and put some food into her bowl as he said gently, “You should eat more. Once you’re filled up with food and spirit, you’ll have more energy for fun.”


Yaoyao could not help but burst into laughter when she heard him, and she nodded. She noticed that he had not touched his food, so she picked up her chopsticks and put some food into his bowl as well. “You should have more too. You’re the one who should be filling up on food. That way, you’ll have the strength to find the mastermind behind this.”


Beitang You laughed out delightedly. “Alright. Your wish is my command, Princess.”

!!

“Good boy.” Yaoyao tried to rub his head, but he was too far from her, so she gave up.


A smile twinkled in Beitang You’s eyes. He felt truly pleased.


This girl could easily affect his emotions.


He felt like he could solve any major national issue with her by his side.


As he stared at the yellow flame of the candle, Beitang You felt a warmth flowing through his heart, which had been lonely for a long time.


He was the ruler of a country—he owned the mountains and seas of his nation. Despite that, he always had his meals alone.


Beitang You was the only one who understood how lonely he truly felt.


The Palace was huge, but he traveled back and forth from the place all on his own.


With Yaoyao accompanying him recently, that feeling of loneliness seemed to have disappeared.


Having dinner with her during the night became something he looked forward to every day.


As he looked at the girl opposite him smiling brightly under the candlelight, he wondered how he could ever bear to let her leave.


After dinner, Yaoyao ate her post-meal fruits while asking Beitang You, “By the way, do you know who sent the assassin?”


Beitang You’s eyes narrowed. “If I’m guessing correctly, it should be Prince Chen.”


“Prince Chen?” Yaoyao was taken aback. “Wasn’t he the person who arranged for us to be ambushed during our journey here?”


“Yes. That would be him. I’ve sent someone to Chengzhou secretly to arrest Prince Chen and bring him to the capital,” Beitang You said casually.


“Did he recklessly send an assassin because he knows you found out about him?” Yaoyao frowned.


Beitang You sighed. “We will find out after the interrogation is complete.”


Yaoyao said, “That assassin looks quite stubborn. I don’t think he will say anything. Why don’t I give you a couple more hallucinogens?”


Beitang You was about to reply when Chen Jin came in hurriedly.


“What’s wrong?”


“Master, that assassin refuses to say a word. He’s been keeping silent all this time. He is near death now and the only name he divulged so far was Prince Jing.


Prince Chen and Prince Jing were the sons of the Yan Kingdom’s previous emperor. They were Beitang Rui’s brothers but did not share the same biological mother.


When Beitang You returned to take the throne, he did not annihilate every member of the royal family to avoid any political unrest.


He did not expect this to become a source of trouble now.


Prince Chen was respectful toward him on the surface, but he had been plotting against him for a long time. He was not happy about Beitang You claiming the throne and had been secretly scheming to assassinate him and take the throne for himself.


Yaoyao gave this some thought and asked, “Could he be trying to frame Prince Jing?”


Beitang You looked at her with a smile. “Why would you think that?”


“The assassin refuses to say a word no matter how you torture him, yet he decides to expose the mastermind right before he dies. On the surface, it may look like he can’t take the torture and was forced to reveal the mastermind, but in fact, he might be purposely giving a name so that none of you would doubt his information.” Yaoyao analyzed this with a frown.
