"Is that so!" Beitang Qing said indifferently, showing no concern for what Beitang Chuxin had just said.
If he's truly a dispensable pawn destined to be discarded, why bother recognizing him, why bring him into the negotiation team...
Royal affairs were always a mix of truth and falsehood, substance and shadow.
Until the final outcome materializes, no one can predict what might happen!
One must never let down his guard until he ascends the throne.
No, even once you've assumed the position, you must always be wary of being dethroned by someone else.
Beitang Chuxin rambled on, but discovered that Beitang Qing seemed to not even be listening. She bit her lip, anger flashing across her eyes.
However, she quickly regained her demeanor of an obedient younger sister. She asked, "Brother...what did father mean when he said that Beitang Qi would be coming with us?"
Beitang Qing closed his book with a snap, "You ask too many questions. Leave."
