This is a clear indication of not interfering in the matters of the princes.
So as not to be blamed for overstepping!
With this said, Hongfen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was already fifteen, yet unmarried and still considered a child. But how could he willingly let Consort Chen control him?
His own mother was harmed by Consort Chen, and now it was hard enough to pretend to be indifferent. If he truly had to be under her control, he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't cause a scene.
It's best that she doesn't interfere.
Ye Zao could see through Hongfen's thoughts and just wanted to laugh. No matter how much she wanted to take on responsibilities, she wouldn't meddle in the affairs of the princes.
There's no need.
"However, you are both still children, so take good care of yourselves. The Second Prince is older, take care of your younger brothers. I'll leave Hongxin to you as well," Ye Zao said with a smile.
