Chapter 512: Handling Matters

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ning Yue was shocked by the token taken out by the emperor emeritus. This token was too precious!

Ning Yue was puzzled. Why did the emperor emeritus give her the token for no reason? Didn’t he already give her a jade pendant?

Just as Ning Yue was about to ask, the emperor emeritus spoke again. “Of course, I gave you this token because I wanted you to have the greatest right to deal with things. I also know about those businesses. They’re not clean.”

“Sometimes, even if you’re the future prince, king, and crown princess Mingyue, there are some people you can’t deal with. That’s why I’m giving you the token,” the emperor emeritus said.

After hearing the emperor emeritus’s words, Ning Yue’s eyelids twitched. What did he mean?

Was he implying that his business had been interfered with by someone of higher status? This person of higher status might very well be a prince or even an emperor.

No, this didn’t make sense.

The emperor had inherited the throne of the Retired Emperor. In the end, the Retired Emperor’s assets were left to the emperor, so it could not be the emperor.

Then there was only one possibility left. It was a certain prince.

Ning Yue frowned and thought for a moment. Other than the two princes who had rebelled, there were other princes, kings and monarchs.

It was impossible for him to be Prince Jin. Otherwise, the emperor would not have entrusted his assets to her.

Then there were only three princes left: Prince Chu, Prince Xuan and Prince Lian.

She had never interacted with Prince Xuan and Prince Lian. She did not know how these two people were doing. On the other hand, she had heard Xiaobao and Xiaobei mention that they were going to their house because she had been kidnapped by Lian Xin. She did not know if they went in the end.

She had never seen Prince Lian’s son, but it sounded like Prince Lian had a good relationship with Jiang Ying. Therefore, there should be no problem with him. Only Prince Chu and Prince Xuan were left.

Seeing Ning Yue deep in thought, the emperor was very satisfied. It seemed that Ning Yue had already realized it.

“I won’t say much about this matter. In any case, you have to remember to visit those businesses often. I’ll give you the token. Alright, I’m tired too. I’m going to rest,” the emperor emeritus said with a smile.

The emperor emeritus had already begun to chase her away, so Ning Yue did not stay any longer. She stood up and bade the emperor emeritus farewell. Just as Ning Yue was about to leave, the emperor emeritus added, “Apart from the emperor and Jiang Ying, you can’t tell anyone else about me asking you to take care of the businesses.”

Ning Yue stopped in her tracks and replied, “Your Highness, don’t worry. Apart from us, no one else knows about this.”

The emperor emeritus nodded and sat on the chair with his eyes closed. Seeing this, Ning Yue quietly retreated.

The eunuch was already waiting outside the door. Seeing Ning Yue come out, the eunuch respectfully invited her. “Princess, this way please. The emperor wants to see you.”

The emperor wanted to see her? Ning Yue was stunned. Perhaps the emperor was doing this for the emperor emeritus.

“Alright, lead the way,” Ning Yue said.

Seeing that Ning Yue had no intention of being unhappy, the eunuch said to her, “After the emperor came to see the emperor emeritus last time, he was in a bad mood when he returned. The emperor wants to see you because he wants to ask about the emperor emeritus.”

Ning Yue nodded. This was nothing. She would see him.

When they arrived at the emperor’s imperial study, the emperor did not say anything and asked Ning Yue, “Why did the emperor emeritus see you? How is he?”

Ning Yue smiled and replied, “If Your Highness is worried about the emperor emeritus, why don’t you go and take a look yourself?”

“Do you think I didn’t go? I did, but the Retired Emperor kept everything to himself. I had no way of knowing what he was thinking.”

“Ever since the Grand empress dowager passed away, the emperor’s health has been deteriorating day by day. The first few days, he kept nagging that the Grand empress dowager wanted to see his son. I was so worried. Even if I went to accompany him every day, I couldn’t tell what was wrong with him.” The emperor was very vexed.

Ning Yue nodded and had a guess. The emperor emeritus was old, and the Grand empress dowager was his mother. His mother’s death had been a huge blow to him.

At his age, his mind was a little muddled.

After Ning Yue explained her thoughts, the emperor was even sadder. If possible, he was willing to bear those sad feelings for his father..
