Chapter 1627 New Assignment
Prince Yang Lu nodded.
"Yes, you can do this."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness." Mu Fei Xin smiled brightly at Prince Yang Lu and put away the letter. "I have prepared your favorite food, would you like to eat together, Your Highness?"
"Yes." Prince Yang Lu nodded.
Mu Fei Xin smiled and brought Prince Yang Lu away.
Live as part of the Imperial Family might be luxurious and filled with many thorns, but Mu Fei Xin had slowly gotten used to it. She couldn't say that she liked it very much, but it was quite relaxing and calm.
Even if there were some other women in the harem, they were not stupid enough to challenge her all the time. She also had no intention to take care of Prince Yang Lu all the time.
If he wanted them, he could just go there.
She would not stop him.
What she did was simply to maintain their relationship as husband and wife on the surface. That was enough.
The rest was not necessary.
As long as she was able to live well for the rest of her life with her daughter, she didn't care that much about him.
It was enough that they respected each other as husband and wife.

He looked up and snorted. "Why are you now sneaking into my residence too, Hua'er?"
"Grandpa."
Nan Hua jumped down from the beam on the roof and landed not far from Old Master Nan. She had received the order from the Emperor to depart to the north region, so she wanted to see her grandfather before she goes.
After this, she didn't know when she would be able to see him again.
"What brings you here, little lass?" Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter dotingly. For this granddaughter of his, he always felt that he hadn't done good enough for her and wished that she would be able to rely more on him.
But thinking of his own condition, perhaps it would be good for her to be independent too.
He just simply felt distressed.
"I will be going to the north, Grandpa. I don't know how long it'll last." Nan Hua looked at her grandfather and lowered her head. "I'll try to finish everything as fast as possible and return."
Return to be Nan Hua, his beloved granddaughter.
Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter and sighed deeply. He reached out his hand and patted Nan Hua's head as usual.
"Go and do what you need to do. I wouldn't stop you from spreading your wings and achieve your goal." Old Master Nan smiled. "Just remember that you have a home to return to when you want to or need it. No matter where you are, always remember that there are still people behind you."
Nan Hua listened to her grandfather and nodded.
Because she had these people who were waiting for her that she didn't feel empty nor lonely. She had the goal of becoming strong enough to protect those important to her but she also wanted to spend more time with them.
Because time could never turn back.
Every moment spent with them is precious.
"Yes, Grandpa. I'll take care of myself and return as soon as possible," Nan Hua promised. She curtsied and then departed once more.
Old Master Nan looked at the direction where Nan Hua left and sighed deeply. He turned his head to the sky, wishing that the Heaven would protect his family in this chaotic time.
