The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1670

Chapter 1670: 810 Initiative to Strike (One More)

Although it was deliberately said for the Yan Country’s king to hear, everything in the matter is true. The false king indeed issued the decree to reinstate the Crown Prince and indeed sealed off the National Master Hall to investigate the affairs there and the injuries of Shangguan Yun.

However, because the character could not collapse too dramatically – what was done to the Crown Prince before cannot be exceeded now.

Shangguan Yun is temporarily not in any danger, only restricted in her personal freedom.

But the Imperial Palace is being guarded so tightly; they can’t assassinate the false king, nor can they lead any army to clear the palace. These are all facts.

Gu Chengfeng poured himself a cup of tea, gulped down several large mouthfuls, and said, "What do we do next? The Crown Prince has been reinstated, and this false king will surely cause more trouble."

"Wait and see," said Aunt, cracking sunflower seeds.

Gu Chengfeng was flabbergasted: "Still... wait?"

Aunt glanced at the house opposite and said indifferently, "Let him regret for a few more days."

In such situations, it is not them who are most anxious but the Yan Country’s king. One must let him deeply realize the mistakes he made in the past and fully taste the bitter fruit of his own making.

Furthermore, there is another important reason for acting this way.

The Han Family made such a fierce move to force them and the king to take action. However, by keeping still, they leave the Han Family puzzled about their intentions.

It is the unknown that is most fearsome.

The longer they stay still, the more the Han Family will suspect they are brewing a bigger revenge.

Before understanding their trump card, the Han Family would not blindly launch a second attack.

For them, this also means gaining some respite and another chance to strategize.

"By the way, will the Little Princesses be alright?" Gu Chengfeng asked.

Gu Jiao shook her head: "She will be fine. The one the king loves the most is the Little Princesses. Regardless of his motives, the false king will not do anything harmful to the Little Princesses."

Imperial Palace.

Lingbo Academy had a two-day holiday, and the Little Princesses have obediently stayed in the palace these days.

Many people in the Imperial Palace have been replaced, but the little maids and nurses around her have not been changed.

She just had lunch, and the nurse went to prepare seasonal clothes for her, as children grow fast and last year’s clothes no longer fit.

"Nanny."

The Little Princesses appeared at the door holding a small pillow.

The nurse smiled slightly, "Little Princesses, why are you here? Weren’t you going to take a nap?"

The Little Princesses huffed and puffed as she walked in, holding her small pillow and looking at her: "Can I sleep here with you?"

The nurse was taken aback, then smiled and said, "You can, but why do you want to sleep here?"

The Little Princesses clumsily climbed into bed, placed her small pillow beside the nurse’s, and said with her head hanging low, "I don’t want to sleep with my uncle. He is a bad person."

The nurse was startled, hurried to the door, looked outside, closed the door, sat by the bed, and whispered, "Little Princesses, you can’t say that. His Majesty loves you the most. You shouldn’t say such things about him."

The Little Princesses said, "He is not my uncle."

The nurse’s face turned pale: "Princess!"

The Little Princesses was sleepy, lay down on the pillow, and fell asleep.

The nurse looked at the sleeping Little Princesses, wiped cold sweat from her brow.

She covered the Little Princesses with a thin blanket and tiptoed out.

The Steward was already waiting outside.

She was neither surprised nor panicked, and respectfully greeted him: "Eunuch Yu."

The Steward asked indifferently, "What did the Little Princesses say?"

The nurse respectfully answered, "The Little Princesses said she doesn’t want to sleep with His Majesty, that he is a bad person, and that he is not her uncle."

The Steward smiled slightly: "What do you think?"

The nurse smiled, "I think His Majesty has been busy with state affairs recently and has neglected her. Children’s tempers flare up easily. They don’t even acknowledge their parents, let alone uncles? The fact is, His Majesty has spoiled the Little Princesses. No other children would dare to be so capricious with His Majesty."

The Steward smiled with satisfaction: "It’s good that Nanny Liu understands."

The nurse said, "Rest assured, Eunuch Yu, I am loyal to you."

The Steward said pompously, "Zhang Dequan is useless and can’t give you a proper position. I’m different. If you work well under me, you will be rewarded accordingly."

The nurse gratefully bowed, "I will remember your words. Eunuch Yu, since the Little Princesses has a big temper and keeps causing trouble, I suggest she stays with me for these days to avoid offending His Majesty."

The Steward said, "That would be good. His Majesty is busy with state affairs recently and indeed has no time to look after the Little Princesses. But let me make it clear, if I entrust the Little Princesses to you, you must take good care of her and avoid any trouble, or else you know my methods."

The nurse said fearfully, "I will not disappoint you, Eunuch Yu."

The Steward grunted in satisfaction and left contentedly.

The nurse returned to the room, tenderly watched the peaceful Little Princesses, and sighed with relief.
