"Junjun, from today onward, you will be the ninth prince of the Wei Dynasty. Whatever happened in the past stays in the past. We should look forward to the future. Both your father and I will look after you and take care of you," said the emperor's mother as she rubbed Xie Jun's head.
Xie Jun nervously looked up and asked her, "What about my brother? Will I still be able to see him in the future? He had been really good to me all this time. He even told me to study so that I can be wise even if I don't become a government official."
"That's all? What else did he say to you?"
"No, my brother said that as long as I am happy, I can do whatever I want, but I cannot do anything against the law. I should be a good person."
The emperor's mother thought about what he said.
She and the emperor suspected that the Xie Clan knew about Xie Jun's true identity. So they purposely adopted Xie Jun to use him to their advantage.
