But if the Princess Royal is organizing this…Li Haoyuan gave it a moment's thought. He was already indebted to Heavenly Orchard sect. She was, after all, the one that helped conceal his weapon smuggling operations. He wasn't as stupid to think that she wasn't aware of his other dealings, such as dipping into the Ministry of War's coffers, but what else could she be after? Did this mean the Ninth Prince was under her thumb? The Ninth Prince was not the most popular nor was he active in the Court, but that did not matter. Li Haoyuan's thoughts circled back to the promise of more money. The servants alone proved that there was a large gap in wealth between a First Rank Official to Royalty. If he could get a child or two in the Palace, he'd be set for life!

"And…the Young Master, Li Zhengyu…"
"Huh?!"
