Zhao Hong tapped the table with a smile that was not quite a smile, "This is the honest man you spoke of, but you should not look at the second and fourth brothers, who have been leaping around in the court these past few years, merry as they are, but in the eyes of Father Emperor, those two fools are like red-bottomed monkeys. The only ones Father Emperor really considered were myself and the third brother!"

Zhao Miao, tired, lowered his eyelids and muttered softly, "I do not want to be involved in matters between you brothers. I only wish you, as the eldest, could spare the third brother's life out of kinship..."

"Big sister, you think too highly of me."

Zhao Hong slowly shook his head, "With the Marquis Luting backing you, how dare I really do anything to the third brother?"

He laughed and exclaimed, "Our father, this move of his is simply magical; I have no choice but to admire it!"
