Chapter 155: Father King
"King Yan Chen is so proactive about disaster relief, if not that, then let him investigate the Siminghui. The plight of the people lies not only in natural disasters but also in man-made calamities,"
Chu Baihan turned his head and spoke to him in a calm voice.
Yan Chen stopped in his tracks, sensing that Chu Baihan wanted them to act separately, and he opened his mouth to refuse.
After all, he knew that the emperor would never allow Chu Baihan to marry him.
But he would never allow Yan Lin to succeed either.
A Crown Prince and Yan Lin, these two were the biggest stumbling blocks in his path to the throne.
If Chu Baihan were to befriend and aid Yan Lin, then his chances of winning would be even slimmer.
So during his time in Jiangnan, he would never give them the chance to cultivate any fondness for one another.
But before he could voice his objection, Chu Baihan continued, "King Yan Chen seems quite reluctant, but is it because of what that child said just now, that you’re afraid of this Siminghui?"
She was actually using reverse psychology on him.
