Just then, the wife of the office head entered the room.
"My lord, that's Princess Rao's personal maid. Are you sure you can do this?" His wife gritted her teeth.
The office head sighed. "The eldest prince and Princess Rao are involved, and the competition for the throne isn't something to be taken lightly. We'll stay out of it and remain neutral. We'll only support His Majesty."
His wife said, "If Princess Rao takes her revenge…"
The office head smiled bitterly. "She'll have to wait until she becomes the emperor."
His wife said, "Apart from His Majesty, she also has the Patriarch… Isn't she the only one the Patriarch likes? Even His Majesty is on her side…"
The office head shook his head. "…If she really is that kind of person, Northern Yan will have a darkest moment when she becomes the king. No, I won't allow it!"
His wife smiled bitterly. She hoped it wouldn't come to that.
