Exacerbation

"The reason we came back was to ask dad if he has any ideas."

"The prince has entered the palace. I'm afraid he won't be able to return for a while."

"It's fine, the Yin Qi in Eldest Royal Grandson's body is temporarily sealed by me, it won't affect him."

Bai Xiao took out the peony that was bitten off by the raging flames. "Mother, I'm sorry."

The princess was distressed to see her favourite peony ruined.

"This …"

"It's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the fire and got eaten by it."

"This …"

Her heart ached for her daughter, but she couldn't bear to blame her daughter.

"Forget it. If it's broken, so be it."

"But, this was bestowed by the emperor. If the emperor knew about this …"

"It's nothing. Your majesty knows about it. It's just a pot of flowers, isn't it? "He's not that petty."

"Daughter is afraid that someone will use this matter to get in father's way."
