Chapter 1714: Chapter 1714: Not a Good... Thing!

"Mother, are you bored staying in the Lin Family all the time?"

Looking at her own mother, who was sitting on a stool with various silk threads on the table, embroidering, she smiled and walked over to ask.

"The climate in Yejun is just like this, and for the past few months, it’s been hard to go outside."

"I’m not bored, Mother has things to do."

The Elder Princess put down the embroidery needle in her hand and reached out to hold her daughter’s hand, asking her to sit by her side.

Then, she glanced sideways at the big red wedding dress on the table which of course, was not yet finished.

"In the blink of an eye, you’ve grown up, nearing the time to marry."

Lin Caisang just smiled and did not reply.

"Although Mother truly can’t bear to see you marry off so soon, Molian is a good child. Leaving you by his side, Mother would be at ease," continued the Elder Princess to her daughter.

"A few days ago, Mother discussed it with your uncle, and by next spring, we’ll propose marriage to Wei State. But your uncle seemed quite displeased, saying the Emperor of Wei is not a good... thing!"

"Pfft!"

Lin Caisang couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

If the Emperor of Wei were a good thing, she wouldn’t have met her Brother Molian, would she?

Moreover, if the Emperor of Wei isn’t a good thing, does that mean she should be afraid? It’s about who can outsmart whom!

"Mother, you needn’t worry about that. The Emperor of Wei is no match for Brother Molian."

"Mother isn’t worried,"

said the Elder Princess, patting her hand.

"When a child grows up, they have to venture out into the world and cannot stay by Mother’s side forever. But Sangsang, Mother still has a few words of caution for you, don’t be too trusting of the people around you.

Some things are better kept to oneself, lest outsiders harbor ill intentions."

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang’s expression turned solemn.

"Mother, you..."

"This time Mother came, I sent away the nanny to another mansion, you might understand Mother’s intention?" the Elder Princess asked her daughter.

The nanny by her side had been with her the longest. Since she was a little girl, the nanny had been with her, and even during those years she went to the Illusion Continent, the nanny did not leave the Princess’ Mansion.

Yet such a person, whom she trusted so greatly, she wouldn’t tell her everything.

Lin Caisang pursed her lips, looking at her own mother.

"Mother, you’ve guessed it, huh."

"Some things don’t need guessing; you are Mother’s daughter, and Mother will certainly not harm you, but others... Sangsang, though one should not harbor the intent to harm, one must always guard against others," the Elder Princess continued to admonish her.

"Your nanny has always talked to Mother about your affairs over the years, especially last year, when she said you never left Ya Village."

If she never left Ya Village, then when did her daughter go to Jianan City, and how did she return?

Could it be that she was able to split herself into two?

"Eh."

Lin Caisang was choked by her mother’s words.

She knew that she couldn’t keep this secret forever.

"But don’t worry; Mother has already cautioned your nanny, she won’t speak of your affairs to outsiders anymore," said the Elder Princess.

"Mother, what did you say to my nanny?" Lin Caisang hurriedly asked.

"It was nothing much; your nanny said she’s older now and can’t remember things clearly," said the Elder Princess.

"Phew!"

Lin Caisang let out a heavy sigh of relief.

She was afraid that if her mother spoke too seriously to her nanny, the nanny would be frightened into some kind of mishap.
