Shao He felt the intensity of The Emperor's gaze but was not the slightest bit afraid; instead, she very calmly bowed with hands folded and said, "Your Majesty has clear discernment. The reason I didn't let the child acknowledge his ancestors and return to the clan is that I fear he may be harmed by someone."
"I would like to see who would dare harm the Royal Descendant!" The Emperor's eyes carried a thick intent to kill.
Shao He bowed her head, "Just a few days ago, Xiao Linzhang nearly fell victim to someone's sinister attempt, if not for the Hidden Guard protecting him in time, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Upon hearing this, the Emperor furrowed his brow, "Was the mastermind behind this found out?"
Shao He replied, "There are no clues yet, but the other party is certainly no ordinary person; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to easily enter the premesis."
