Chapter 1776: The Successor I Have in Mind

There was a deep meaning in Xie Limo’s words. He was saying that the royal family’s opinions and thinking, as well as words said by the royalty, have no influence on him.

He wouldn’t care about the royal family and give anyone face.

Xiajun Yanli stumbled. He didn’t turn back but merely closed his eyes and sighed.

He knew that Xie Limo could be tolerant of many things, but if it involved his wife, he would do anything.

In the past, there was a rumor in Ning An City that no one could trifle with Yun Bixue—he experienced it first hand today.

“The incidents involving the noble families in the imperial capital has something to do with you, right?”

“Some yes, some no.”

“So you didn’t let off any family or person who harmed your wife!”

“You feel that I didn’t let the An family off?”

Xiajun Yanli’s expression changed. He couldn’t understand indeed why Xie Limo chose to let the An family off.

Xiajun Yanli had many questions. He turned towards Xie Limo and asked, “You’re a member of the Xie family. What you want is the whole Country A.”

Xie Limo looked at Xiajun Yanli. Since they had said so much, he didn’t deny it.

Xiajun Yanli laughed out loud. “Then why are you rescuing my father?”

Xie Limo replied honestly, “Because I can’t let him die now. Once he dies, the imperial capital will descend into chaos, and in turn, the whole country. But his life had reached its limit, and I can only let him live several months more.”

Xiajun Yanli turned pale. He managed several words stiffly, “Nonetheless, thank you.”

Regardless, it was a fact he was rescuing his father. Even though his intentions were complex, he did save his father. He was clear about this.

Moreover, Xie Limo was right. If his father were to suddenly die, then the imperial capital and even the entire country will descend into chaos.

After all, the next heir to the throne wasn’t yet finalized. With the current situation, there were several people vying for that position in the royal family.

Since he had decided to come out of obscurity, he would definitely be implicated. Even if he didn’t wish to take over that position, no one would believe that.

Hence, he could only advance and couldn’t retreat. He wasn’t by himself, and he had Hao’er to protect as well.

Xie Limo walked to Xiajun Yanli’s side and said, looking at him, “You don’t have to thank me because the successor I have in mind is Hao’er.”

“Hao’er?”

The astounded Xiajun Yanli couldn’t believe what he was hearing. He gazed at Xie Limo and saw that the latter looked serious and didn’t at all seem to be lying.

“You heard me right. It’s Hao’er.” Xie Limo continued saying in Xiajun Yanli’s ear.

Xiajun Yanli felt like a blast went off in his brain. He dared not even imagine something like this.

Xiajun Yanli grabbed Xie Limo’s neck in one swoop. “He’s only five. How can you set your sights on him?”

Xie Limo patted Xiajun Yanli’s hand and said, “I know you’re very agitated, but have you thought for Hao’er? What’s going to happen to him if you don’t sit in that position?”

Xiajun Yanli said blankly, “The winner takes it all.”

“That’s right. When Ah Xue and I first saw Hao’er, he was bullied by little kids and was crying. Do you know why he likes Yun Bixue so much? Because he lacks motherly love. You can’t give him everything, so you need to make sure he has sufficient ability to protect himself.”

Xiajun Yanli gritted his teeth and insisted, “Even so, you can’t make such an arrangement for him!”

“How do you know such an arrangement isn’t for the best? Do you want to see Hao’er continue to suffer grievances?”
