The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1510 - 1594: An Imperial Edict

For example, the current Prime Minister has been having a rough time lately, facing one misfortune after another, and the officials allied with him are also encountering frequent issues, all of which are caused by that man.

Prince Meng pondered for a long while, then she opened the drawer once again, retrieving... 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

A secret decree!

This was a decree that had never been announced!

"If it’s a court intrigue related to my fifth sister, after thinking it over carefully, it can only be this."

She unfolded the decree, recalling something her fifth sister had done during her lifetime.

"Now that I think about it, when my fifth sister returned to the capital from outside, she caused such a huge commotion; perhaps it’s related to you. Have a look."

Xiao Qingyao picked up the decree, reading through it swiftly, and suddenly his eyes turned red. "This... why would she do such a thing?"

In the eyes of Prince Meng, there was a hint of remembrance.

"Fifth sister insisted on having the Empress Mother issue this decree, but unfortunately, before it could be announced, those major events occurred: first, the Empress Mother fell into a coma due to Gu Poison, and then, my fifth sister got into trouble herself. People like us, within the complex factions of the backyards in the capital, those who truly value us as individuals are few, most value the status and the wealth it can bring them. Some even harbor malicious intents and wild ambitions!"

"Perhaps she did it for you, but until you appeared, I never understood, I was puzzled, I couldn’t comprehend, until I found out that when my fifth sister traveled incognito, she had a relationship with you."

Xiao Qingyao, the man of her fifth sister.

For him alone, my fifth sister wanted to dismiss the many favored male servants in her residence, sending some who had not overstepped or made mistakes to other places for proper settlement, and as for the maliciously ambitious ones, their names were recorded in this decree.

If it weren’t for those incidents later, if my fifth sister hadn’t met an untimely end, she would likely have resolved the matters with these men in the capital backyards and then welcomed Xiao Qingyao into the residence as the sole husband, in a country like Dayuan, where women are often promiscuous, this would indeed have been an act of deep affection and serious love.

What virtue or capability did Xiao Qingyao possess to enchant her fifth sister so completely?

At this moment, Prince Meng suddenly understood Yun Ge’s feelings a bit. She thought, no wonder Yun Ge felt awkward around the men of the Liang family; it was just like this, because of a mindset similar to her own.

The person one values is always good in one’s own eyes, even if they’re not; but the person one values invests deeply in others, toiling selflessly for other men.

The feelings between women, even if it’s not love, sometimes the protection, cherishing, and caring stem from a heart of affection that surpasses love.

Even if the relationship between two women is too good, if the friendship is too intense, it can feel like a grand romance, born out of friendship jealousy when the other gets close to someone else, possessing a desire to have them belonging solely to oneself as the only true friend.

Xiao Qingyao was lost in thought for a long time, and finally, with reddened eyes, he said, "It turns out, between her and me, it was neither a momentary whim nor a fleeting affair..."

He sighed deeply, tears falling from the corners of his eyes.

Enough, this is enough!

This love was not just his one-sided infatuation; he was not merely one of the many men comparable to pearls, but unique, because, at least after they started this relationship, she had him alone in her heart.
