Bab 870: Be Careful

Zhou Huailing had been thinking about what he should do after his mother got the title as the Queen, but when he heard her reply, he suddenly put on an expression of cautiousness, looked about and made sure that it was the safest place before asking Honored Princess Jing. "What is that?"

He was the heir now, but he needed to be even more cautious after he became the heir. He needed to be discreet.

Honored Princess Jing felt more assured seeing that Zhou Huailing had become obviously more mature and acted carefully.

She had been thinking about this on her way out of Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager was her aunt, but after spending so many years together, Honored Princess Jing already understood what the Empress Dowager was like - she only cared about personal interests, not emotions or affections.

She would only think about emotions and affections, when interests were not that important any more.
