The Elder Princess’ eyes flashed with fear as she spoke anxiously, "It’s been four years, and The Overwatch Council hasn’t let up on the case at all; I fear that the truth may be revealed… I heard that Chen Pingping has returned to his hometown on a visit and doesn’t want to come back to the capital. If… he decides to retire now, then it would be for the best."
"I’m not so sure about that." The queen laughed coldly, "Don’t forget that one night four years ago, it was Chen Pingping who convinced the emperor to call off the arranged wedding. Fan Jian took Sir Chen Pingping’s hometown visit as an opportunity to convince the emperor to once again give Chen’er to Fan Xian in marriage. This means that you won't be in charge of the national treasury in the future… If Chen Pingping was still in the capital, then this marriage would not be set in stone, and it might have gone the way you wanted… or, the way the prime minister wanted."
