Wu Ling finished speaking and, without further ado, turned around and proceeded toward the Crown Prince East Palace.
At the moment, Wu Ling also knew that she herself was merely a person under the title of the Crown Prince.
Yet, Empress Wang had forcefully pushed her to the forefront.
Without any real power,
nor any significant strength,
whether Qiu Hao listened to her or not was ultimately beyond Wu Ling's control.
She had already said her piece.
Whether or not Qiu Hao heeded her words, or accepted her advice, no longer mattered to her.
Wu Ling didn't dwell on it and left at a leisurely pace.
Before long,
Wu Ling's figure had disappeared from Qiu Hao's line of sight.
It wasn't until Wu Ling's form was no longer visible that Qiu Hao came back to his senses, staring in the direction where Wu Ling vanished, his eyes flashing with contemplation.
"We are all wagering, so what is there to fear?"
"If Great Yuan finds a weak spot this time, the consequences are unthinkable."
