The prince is very cruel

She gave him a gentle look, then said, "Stop talking nonsense."

"Tell me, why did you suddenly think of coming to see me?"

Guan Ning chuckled: "I came to see my aunt, just to see my aunt, do I need any other reason?"

Empress Fuxi laughed dumbly: "I have been living here alone, pure and simple, and I thought that this would be the end of my life, but I didn't expect to see you again."

"I'm so glad you could come and see me."

Guan Ning raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "Besides me, no one comes to visit you?"

Empress Fuxi laughed and said, "Do you think anyone is as brave as you?"

"Come and see me. If the emperor knew about it, it would probably cause dissatisfaction. I can't see them."

"As long as we know each other is safe, that's all that matters."

"If you hadn't come to me, I wouldn't have disturbed your life."

Guan Ning was curious: "Ahem, well, Auntie, can I ask a sensitive question?"

Empress Fuxi was very intelligent and seemed to have guessed what he was going to ask: "Are you trying to ask what the conflict was between His Majesty and me that led to this?"

Guan Ning nodded.

Empress Fuxi shook her head gently: "This is no longer important."

"He and I are completely different people. Game of Thrones, the pinnacle of glory, is worthless to me."

"The entire palace can't give me what I want. Do you understand?"

She used a more vague and obscure wording, but Guan Ning roughly understood what was going on. Then, thinking about the current situation in the world, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"But, aunt, have you ever thought that even if you become a monk, you are still in the mortal world and it might be difficult to find true peace?"

Fuxi was open-minded, his eyes calm as he said, "This is not important. Everything is arranged by fate. I am at peace wherever my heart is."

In her, Guan Ning felt a real sense of being able to take on and let go.

He said nothing more, but said: "What I said before is still valid. If my aunt needs anything, just go to Guan Mansion and pass on a message. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, it will not matter."

Empress Fuxi smiled and said, "You are quite considerate, little one."

Little guy? ?

Guan Ning had a strange expression on his face. This title was weird, as Empress Fuxi was obviously also very young.

"Ahem, that's right."

"I almost forgot this. I brought it for you." As he said that, he took out a box.

"What is that?" Fuxi was curious, thinking it was something like a cake.

"Hehe, you'll know if you open it." Guan Ning pretended to be mysterious.

Fuxi had a mature heart and was not impressed by this, but he still opened it with a smile.

This is a small purple rectangular box. When you open it, you will see that there is no food inside, but a peony-shaped gold hairpin. It is exquisite and elegant, grand yet low-key.

Especially the peony flowers woven with gold thread, the craftsmanship is so fine and it fits the temperament of Empress Fuxi so well.

Fuxi was slightly surprised and stunned, obviously not expecting something like this.

There was indeed a moment of fondness in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and she snapped the door shut: "Guan Ning, this thing is too valuable, I can't have it."

She refused simply.

Guan Ning frowned: "Why?"

"Last time you gave Qin Yao and the others so many jewels, now I'm giving them some in return, is that okay?"

"Just consider it my filial piety to you."

Fuxi shook his head: "I am very happy that you have this intention."

"But it's not appropriate." She looked serious and hinted at something.

Guan Ning smiled bitterly: "Okay."

"Then I'll bring you some food later."

Empress Fuxi nodded: "That's fine."

Guan Ning put away the box and said, "By the way, I'm going to leave the capital soon."

Empress Fuxi knew nothing about his affairs, she only guessed that Guan Ning had experienced a lot, otherwise he would not be who he is today.

"Is it related to the Emperor?"

"I guess so, but it's more for myself and everyone around me." Guan Ning's answer was ambiguous. After all, if he told Fuxi that he was secretly building an army, Fuxi would be scared out of his wits.
