Ling Hua had wanted to sleep, but since Yan Qing was interested in asking about this matter, she answered seriously.
She closed her eyes and shared her plans with Yan Qing, "Her identity as the Little Princess of Green Forest is not something I intend to conceal. Whether it's Your Majesty or the Crown Prince, they will both know. And it's not just about what I need her to do. Even if I don't need her to do anything, just having her by my side is a deterrent, both to the Court and to Jianghu. Green Forest has been standing tall for hundreds of years—it's a behemoth. I need to keep it in my hands. Even if I don't use it for myself, I can't let others benefit from it, especially the Ning Family. After all, the Helmsman Cheng is related by marriage to the Yu Family, and the Yu Family relies on the Ning Family. I fear Green Forest falling into their hands."
"You really have some good strategies," said Yan Qing.
