Princess Huimin seized the opportunity to say, “Doctor Shao must also be reluctant to part with the child. Why not go back with him?”

Shao He looked at their tacit exchange and felt thoroughly disheartened by Princess Huimin, as the implication was clearly to use the child as a threat against her.

While the stalemate persisted among the few people, a clamor arose from outside, “Who is out there?”

As soon as these words were spoken, Pei Huaian walked in, offering a cupped-fist salute, “My respects to my aunt.”

Princess Huimin, seeing who had arrived, felt somewhat uncomfortable and guilty.

The servant boy outside spoke with a wry smile, “Your Highness, Princess, I truly could not stop the Fifth Prince; he insisted on forcing his way in.”

“You may leave.”

Princess Huimin knew Pei Huaian’s character; if he wished to come in, who could stop him?

“Yes.” The servant boy turned and left.

“Huaian, you are still grounded. How can you run around like this? If The Emperor finds out, you will surely be punished!” Princess Huimin expressed worry that he might cause trouble and thus invoked his confinement as an issue.

Who knew that Pei Huaian would respond coldly, “Aunt, rest assured, when the time comes, I will ask Father for my punishment.”

“You…”

“Aunt, are you aware that he is a repeat offender? Not only did he kill his wife and child, but he also threw their bodies into the Mass Burial Mound. How can such a man deserve to be a husband, to be a father!” Even now, the mere thought of the past events still filled Pei Huaian with anger.

If it weren’t for Shao He and the child’s fortunate fates, they would not be standing here today.

Why should all be forgotten with Chu Yu’s mere admission of mistake? The pain and suffering that were once inflicted are swept aside as if nothing happened.

“Huaian, this is a matter between husband and wife, and it’s none of your business as an outsider. Do not meddle,” Princess Huimin warned sharply.

“Then this matter seems unrelated to you as well, aunt. Why then do you intervene? If it were Xu Han today, would you agree to her returning to live with such a man for life?”

“Nonsense, what are you talking about? All I’m doing is for Doctor Shao’s own good! Besides, The Emperor has already consented to this matter!”

Princess Huimin said this, but in her heart, she believed Shao He could not compare with Xu Han; her own daughter was a prized child of heaven, whereas Shao He was merely a female doctor. They were simply incomparable.

Pei Huaian looked at her, obviously convinced, feeling deeply disappointed. He had already made inquiries and knew that Chu Yu had used the former Marquis of Pingnan’s favor with The Emperor to request this.

The Emperor, aware of Chu Yu’s infertility, had stated that as long as Shao He was willing and the child was confirmed to be Chu Yu’s, it would be allowed. But now Princess Huimin was twisting the truth here, forcing Shao He to return to Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion.

“Aunt, we both know the full story, and there is no need for me to elaborate further, right?”

“Huaian, why can’t you understand my good intentions? Everything I do is for your own good! I do not wish to see you sink deeper. I hope you can find your way back,” the princess implored, looking at him with an air of helplessness—she truly didn’t understand what Shao He had that was worth his infatuation.

Pei Huaian, who rarely got angry, now had a look of fury. His hand by his side slowly clenched into a fist, with fingers cracking audibly.

“Please don’t use the pretext of doing what’s best for me to justify hurting me.”

Having said that, he took Shao He’s hand and turned to leave.

Chu Yu dashed forward with a burst, blocking their way, “Fine, I can compromise. I do not need Shao He to return to Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion, but the child must be recognized into the family lineage.”

“Impossible! The child was raised by my own hands; what right do you have to demand the child from me now?” Shao He could no longer remain calm when dealing with Chu Yu; she had lost all patience with his shameless behavior.

“If you lose this child, you can always have another, but he is my only offspring, and I will not let him wander lost outside,” a determined glint shone in Chu Yu’s eyes.

He was willing to abandon everything but the child had to be brought back to Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion

Pei Huaian stepped forward, grabbing Chu Yu by the collar.

“Huaian!”

Princess Huimin stood up, frightened, fearing he would commit another unforgivable mistake.

Behind him, Shao He also spoke softly, “Don’t dirty our hands on such a man, don’t be impulsive.”

Pei Huaian whispered harshly into his ear, “I will not only refuse to give you the child, but I will also make sure you pay the price!”

After speaking, he flung Chu Yu to the ground with force, looking down at him from above with a chilling tone.

“Remember this lesson and don’t provoke Shao He again.”

Chu Yu lay on the ground in a sorry state, glaring at Pei Huaian through clenched teeth, his eyes full of venom.

“Someone, come help the Marquis up!” Princess Huimin called out urgently.

Soon, a servant boy came running over and carefully helped Chu Yu to his feet, “Marquis, are you alright?”

You’ll regret this,” Chu Yu cast a hateful glance at Pei Huaian and left with a flick of his sleeve.

After he had gone a distance, Princess Huimin exhaled in relief and turned to Pei Huaian with a gentle tone, “Huaian, some things are more complicated than you think. Between you and Doctor Shao lies a galaxy that can never be crossed, no matter what!”

“Then I would rather drown in that river.”

Taking Shao He’s hand, Pei Huaian strode away, leaving Princess Huimin with his resolute back.

“Alas,” Princess Huimin sat down, sighing. She had thought that with The Emperor’s support she could handle this matter smoothly, but it now seemed she had miscalculated.
