The Emperor naturally understood everything in his heart, so he cherished Princess Ning An all the more.
He silently swore that from now on, he would never let Princess Ning An leave his side again, nor would he allow her and Xian to suffer the slightest grievance.
"Xian, he..." Princess Ning An stopped mid-sentence.
The Emperor was her brother, and even though they hadn't seen each other in many years, he could still guess what she was most worried about.
He stopped walking and looked at her solemnly, "No matter who Xian's father is, he is your child, my nephew, and I will do everything in my power to protect him."
There were not many objections to Princess Ning An's return to the Capital City, but it was different for Huangfu Xian, who had the blood of the former dynasty's royal family flowing in his veins; those radical officials would probably use Huangfu Xian's lineage as an issue.
Princess Ning An expressed her guilt, "I'm causing trouble for my royal brother."
