"Was he the one who saved you?"
"Yes, Emperor Father, Jun Yuyuan saved me. But the people they sent this time were much stronger than last time. Even the shadow guards you gave me were injured."
"Don't worry, Tang Tang. Emperor Father will uncover the truth and drag out the culprits behind both attacks!"
Ye Yubei's gaze darkened. The culprits behind the previous attack were almost certainly the Empress and the Lu Family. But who was behind this one?
Could it still be the Lu Family?
"All right. I believe Emperor Father will definitely find the culprits!"
"Don't worry, Tang Tang. Emperor Father won't let anyone harm you. Jun Yuyuan, you saved my little princess this time. What reward would you like?" Ye Yubei's heavy gaze settled on Jun Yuyuan.
Jun Yuyuan had actually managed to leave the palace without a sound. It seemed this crown prince was quite skilled, too. Keeping him close was, in the end, raising a tiger that would bring disaster.
Sensing Ye Yubei's wariness, Jun Yuyuan immediately said, "The Ninth Princess is a friend of mine. Besides, now that I am in the Northern Li Kingdom, protecting the princess is part of my duty."
"Duty, is it? Then I shall reward you with a hundred taels of gold as repayment for saving my daughter."
Jun Yuyuan's expression remained unchanged as he said quietly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Tangtang: [Wow! Emperor Father is rewarding Jun Yuyuan with a hundred taels of gold. That must be lots of little Gold Sycees. I... I want them too! Besides, I deserve a share, don't I?]
[If Jun Yuyuan hadn't protected me, he wouldn't have gotten a hundred taels of gold as a reward.]
[Then if I ask him for half, will he give it to me? o'ᆺ'o]
