Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to provide for Xue Yan’s education, Xue Yan’s third brother might have joined the army long ago. He wouldn’t have gone around doing manual labor just to earn a few bucks for Xue Yan’s education.
“If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to provide for Xue Yan’s education, Xue Yan’s fourth brother wouldn’t have worked as a waiter in an inn for three years just to have a stable income every month.
“When Xue Yan stopped studying last year, he stopped working as a waiter and dabbled in business… I know that Xue Yan doesn’t want them to give up anything for him, and neither do I. Besides, Shao Zhongxi and I would be here too.
“He can teach Xue Yan martial arts here. The Southern Army could also be transferred here. Even if Xue Yan and I lived here all the time, nothing would happen to us. Besides, the capital city isn’t necessarily safe. There might even
be a.s.sa.s.sins in the palace.”
When Jiang Yue heard this, she felt that if Shao Youyue knew that Xue Yan had been reborn and that Xue Dafu and the others had sacrificed even more in their previous life, including their lives, Shao Youyue would fight for Xue Yan to stay here.
However, since Shao Youyue could only a.s.sume based on what she knew now, Xue Yan had even less to worry about.
Jiang Yue couldn’t help but look at Xue Yan.
Xue Yan only lowered his head slightly, making it impossible for others to see his reddened eyes.
Empress Dowager Yunzi nodded, her expression cold and indifferent.
However, at this moment, Shao Youyue released Jiang Yue and Xue Yan from her arms. With her big belly, she got down from the bed with some difficulty.
Then, she tried her best to face Empress Dowager Yunzi and slowly knelt down. Because of her big belly, she could only lightly lean against the ground. “Mother, whether Xue Yan will live here or not has nothing to do with my decision, but I do not want to go back. Mother, please tell the Emperor to depose the Empress.”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s eyes met.
They were not surprised with her actions.
Empress Dowager Yunzi startled to frown. She said in an extremely unpleasant tone, “You can settle your own matters with your husband. It has nothing to do with me!”
Then, she couldn’t help but say, “It’s just that he indulges you too much. Look at how indulgent you have become. The Empress isn’t like the Empress, and mother isn’t like mother. I thought you weren’t muddle-headed anymore, but now you’re being st*pid again! If you are crippled and no longer the Empress, can you still take care of the Crown Prince and the child in your stomach?” “Then don’t depose me. I still won’t go back.” Shao Youyue said.
‘You can rely on him to indulge you in your funny business!” Empress Dowager Yunzi’s anger grew even greater. She immediately felt that it was somewhat inappropriate for her to do this. She calmed her anger and said, “In short,l will not interfere in your matters.”
She couldn’t care less. If she could control everything she wished, her youngest son would not have died.
Her children were easily infatuated people. Once they liked someone, they would never change. How could she care about this?
Empress Dowager Yunzi looked towards Xue Yan.
The Emperor family was full of lovers. Could it be that her grandson was the same?
Empress Dowager Yunzi’s eyes narrowed as she thought of this.
Xue Yan felt strange, why was his grandmother suddenly looking at him?
Jiang Yue also didn’t understand why Empress Dowager Yunzi suddenly turned her gaze to Xue Yan.
However, the two of them still helped Shao Youyue up.
It wasn’t until they came out of Empress Dowager Yunzi’s room that Xue Yan and Jiang Yue looked at each other before asking Shao Youyue, “Mother, you and Father-”
However, before Xue Yan could finish speaking, Shao Youyue gently smiled and patted his head. “Xue Yan, even if you’re a child prodigy, you’re still a child. You won’t understand. You don’t have to meddle in our business. I can handle it later. Don’t worry..”
