Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart
1613 Obliged To Protect Her
Filled with curiosity, she returned to her room.
After watching her leave, Beitang You returned to the table, picked up the Palace Memorials, and continued reviewing them.
He would never tell her that he had gotten that information from Ling'er.
Besides kicking off blankets, he also knew that she had a rather inelegant sleeping posture.
However, those did not matter to him; in fact, he found them lovable.
Meanwhile in the Prince Rui Mansion.
Since Hexin returned home, she had been contemplating if she should tell Yuan Xin about the Emperor's proposal to Yaoyao.
Yuan Xin sensed that there was something on her mind, so she offered to spend time with her in her room and followed her there.
"Mother, don't you have to keep Father company?" Hexin could not help teasing her mother when she saw how relaxed she was.
Yuan Xin poked her in the head and scolded her jokingly, "You've gotten brave, young miss, teasing your mother like that."
"No way! I'd never dare to tease you." Hexin immediately latched onto her mother's arm ingratiatingly.
"If you have something to tell me, just say it and don't beat around the bush. I left your father alone for you, you know." Unaffected by her tricks, Yuan Xin pretended to be stern.
Hexin poured her a cup of warm water, then sat down beside her and said in slight distress, "Actually, I haven't decided if I should tell you about it."
"Is it about Yaoyao?" Yuan Xin asked in concern.
Hexin hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes."
"Did something happen to her?" Yuan Xin immediately grew serious when she heard that Yaoyao was involved.
"She's fine. It's just that…" Hexin eventually decided to tell her mother the truth. "His Majesty is involved."
Given how close her mother and Aunt Weiwei were, their family was obliged to protect Yaoyao during her time alone in the Yan Kingdom.
She felt that she needed to inform her mother about something as important as the Emperor's proposal to Yaoyao.
Instead of being shocked, Yuan Xin heaved a sigh of relief. "His Majesty confessed his feelings to Yaoyao, didn't he?"
Hexin nodded, not at all surprised that her mother knew.
The young Emperor had never bothered to please women, so on that day he came to the mansion to personally fetch Yaoyao back to the palace, Yuan Xin already knew that he was in love with her.
"Then what does Yaoyao think? Did she say yes to His Majesty?" asked Yuan Xin.
"Yaoyao said His Majesty wants her to be the Empress, but she's still on the fence because the Yan Kingdom is too far from Great Shang," Hexin replied honestly.
"What a rational child. It's not easy to think about those things in that sort of situation," said Yuan Xin approvingly. "I've seen many girls her age who become blinded by a few sweet words from men—the problem of distance never occurred to them. Yaoyao's really a remarkable girl."
Hexin nodded in agreement. "Yes, but I can tell that she has some feelings for His Majesty too."
"Then did you say anything to her?" asked Yuan Xin.
Hexin furrowed her brow. "I told her to follow her heart, that's all."
Yuan Xin stroked her head. "You did the right thing. You can give advice, but never make decisions for anyone rashly. His Majesty's a wise ruler and man of excellent character, but things may change in the future, and no one can guarantee that his heart will stay the same forever. Yaoyao has to decide this for herself. If marrying His Majesty is her own choice, then I have nothing to say, but she absolutely cannot let anyone make this decision for her."
"I understand, Mother." Hexin nodded meekly.
