Chapter 428: The Overbearing Prince

Helian Wei Wei listened quietly, never once did she interrupted the Retired Emperor. She sat beside the Retired Emperor as she slowly drank from the cup of tea in her hands like a family member of a younger rank. 

Only when she listened until the end, she gave a gentle smile saying, "Grandfather, don't worry, should that happen someday, I will not become his weakness."

She had never intended to be a mere consort in the harem.

Since she loved him, of course, she would love him with all of her heart.

As she thought about it, Helian Wei Wei's voice was clearer than ever. "Be it a pawn, or a sword in his hands, my only wish is for him to think of me, Helian Wei Wei, whenever he sees the throne."

As if astonished at her words, the Retired Emperor's eyes seemed to flicker for a moment. "No wonder Jue Er chose you," he said as he beamed proudly.
