Yun Bixue was moved by Xie Limo’s considerate act and nodded her head fervently. “I like it very much.”
The trip to Gui County this time was a clear sign that the enemy forces wanted to kill him. They did it so blatantly and almost without concealing it at all, which caught him off guard.
Xie Limo never imagined that when their fellow citizens still needed rescue, someone would actually harm the officials and soldiers that were involved in the rescue mission.
This was something he had miscalculated. He had also overestimated the humaneness of a certain group of people in the capital.
Hence, since he had returned alive, he wanted to make a strong comeback, starting from their place of residence.
He wanted to let everyone know that he, Xie Limo, would take charge of his own affairs. No one had the right to interfere.
Furthermore, staying here would prevent Yun Bixue from being reminded of the unhappy memories in the condo, of being reminded of the days when he was not by her side.
This place was the real start to both of their lives in the capital.
When they entered the house, Yun Bixue realized that the interior was similar to their house in Ning An City. It really made her feel like she had come back home.
Xie Limo carried Yun Bixue to the sofa and prepared some snacks for her while watching the news. After that, he went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Yun Bixue stared at her leg and knew that she could not help him for the time being.
She turned on the television and saw the latest breaking news as she analyzed the situation in her mind.
If the other officials were really ganging up against Limo this time, she believed that Limo would definitely have a way to deal with them this time.
But what about the members of the imperial family?
Take Majesty Kang, for example. His status was clearly not to be touched at the moment. However, if they really wanted to deal with him, they had to find someone who was on par with him.
She suddenly thought of someone. Majesty Huang.
She remembered that she had once heard of this person back in Ning An City. Majesty Huang used to be an outstanding and handsome man in the past, and he was deeply loved by the citizens. However, he could be considered to have partially retired from politics.
Something must have happened somewhere along the way.
What was Majesty Kang’s weakness then?
Yun Bixue wanted to plan and make her approach in these specific areas.
When Xie Limo was done cooking, he saw Yun Bixue in a daze on the sofa.
“What are you thinking about that made you so engrossed?”
“Limo, what do you think really happened to Majesty Kang? I only mentioned those few words when I met him last time, but his expression changed completely. Also, why did Majesty Huang choose to retire? If he was around, Majesty Kang wouldn’t have a chance to take control of the capital, right?”
When Yun Bixue mentioned this, Xie Limo’s expression turned serious. “Don’t speak of this matter recklessly when you’re outside. Anyway, a secret affair did happen in the imperial family a few years ago, and no one dares to mention it now. It was that Majesty Kang’s fiancée ended up with Majesty Huang eventually and even bore a child for him.”
Yun Bixue was stunned for a moment. “What? That is such a scandal. Don’t tell me Majesty Kang is also the devoted kind? But Majesty Huang always had a good reputation to his name. Logically speaking, he wouldn’t have snatched his own brother’s woman, right?”
Yun Bixue was very curious. She really could not wrap her head around this.
“Outsiders would not know what exactly happened. However, that woman is dead. She became the dead knot tying the hearts of Majesty Kang and Majesty Huang. The reason why Majesty Kang did not deal with Majesty Huang was because the latter chose to retire partially on his own accord. After all, his child is still the flesh and blood of that woman.”
When Yun Bixue heard what he said, she replied, “So, it would be impossible if we want to invite Majesty Huang to step up and go against Majesty Kang?”
“You want to use Majesty Huang to restrain Majesty Kang?”
Yun Bixue nodded. “Yeah, that is what I’m thinking. Otherwise, we can only start by attacking Majesty Kang’s weakness. Can you help me look up on the information regarding that fiancée of Majesty Kang’s?”
