[“Yes, the two of us were drugged,” Tang Yanmei confirmed after she heard a question from Wu Jinhai that was filled with a hint of surprise.

She had told the teenager about what happened between her and Emperor Bai Guowei before she finally got pregnant with the Emperor’s child. At this time, Wu Jinhai finally learned that little ChenChen was the unwanted son of Emperor Bai Guowei.

Even if ChenChen was now a Prince in Dong Lang, Wu Jinhai somehow could guess how the boy was facing difficulty because many people surely didn’t like his existence since he was only the Emperor’s unwanted son.

“Do you know what kind of drug was given to you and Emperor Bai Guowei, Lady Tang?” Wu Jinhai once again questioned the woman sitting across from him.

When he looked at the woman’s expression, he could tell that it was not only her son who was having difficulty in the palace, but she also experienced the same difficulty because she was just an unwanted concubine in Dong Lang Palace.

.....

Even after the Empress of Dong Lang passed away around twelve years ago, Tang Yanmei didn’t manage to get the position of the Empress of the Empire, and it was enough to show that Tang Yanmei didn’t have any meaning in the palace.

“I don’t think the drugs used on me and Emperor Bai Guowei are the same,” Tang Yanmei replied. “I’m human, whereas the Emperor is a werewolf, so the drugs used for me and him may not be the same. But I believe the drug was mixed into the liquor served to both of us. However, even if the drugs are not the same, the effect remains the same. It managed to increase libido.”

“...” Wu Jinhai seemed speechless after hearing more information from Tang Yanmei.

He was only fifteen this year, but he spent a lot of time outside the palace, and that was why he knew so much about how adults lived their lives outside the palace. He knew harsh words, and he knew things that only adults normally knew.

That was why Wu Jinhai was able to understand the meaning behind Tang Yanmei’s story. Even if Tang Yanmei didn’t say it clearly, Wu Jinhai could understand that Tang Yanmei and Bai Guowei had intimate activities many years ago because of the drugs controlling their libido back then.

They needed to find relief for their desires, and since they had the opportunity to find pleasure in each other, they carried on such activities until Tang Yanmei conceived the Emperor’s child.

“You said you were ordered by someone to approach Emperor Bai Guowei, right? Who was that person?” Wu Jinhai continued to question the woman.

After hearing his question, the woman seemed even more hesitant and anxious, but she was still able to reply, “I apologize, Your Highness. I can’t tell you more than what I have said. The reason why I tell you about my life is that I know you are a good person, but I cannot tell you more than that. I hope you will not be offended by it, Your Highness.”

Instead of answering Wu Jinhai’s question, Tang Yanmei suddenly apologized, and she even looked worried that what she had just said would offend the Prince. True, Tang Yanmei was now the concubine of Dong Lang’s Emperor, but she was a human who had once been a part of Wu Li, and that was why she didn’t want to offend the Eldest Prince of Wu Li.

Wu Jinhai could understand that, and that was why he sighed heavily before replying, “I also don’t have the intention to force you to tell me everything, but what happened at that time happened in Wu Li, didn’t I? I am the Prince of Wu Li, and someone committed such crimes in my territory. Don’t you think it’s normal that I want to know more about it?”

“...” Tang Yanmei couldn’t immediately respond to the Prince this time.

The woman even took her eyes off Wu Jinhai, and Wu Jinhai didn’t actually mean to press her even further. To the woman, the matter might be related to her private life that no one else knew about, but Wu Jinhai had somehow assumed that the matter was related to him because he was the Prince of Wu Li.

He wasn’t even sure if his father knew about it or not. The nobles in Wu Li often held parties, but Wu Jinhai thought he had never heard his father mention the banquet that Emperor Bai Guowei attended.

Maybe he could ask his father later, but the masked teenager could only wait for Tang Yanmei’s response now. Once again he could see how nervous the woman was, and she even squeezed her finger uncomfortably while contemplating how she should answer his question.

“I really can’t tell you much more about it, Your Highness,” an answer finally came from the woman as she once again set her sights on the young man. “That person is very strong, and I might only put you in danger if I tell you their identity. You’d better not get yourself in trouble, Your Highness.”

Instead of being satisfied with Tang Yanmei’s answer, Wu Jinhai looked even more curious after hearing her answer.

So, it was a powerful person who commanded Tang Yanmei, ah? That person was so powerful that they might harm Wu Jinhai?

Wu Jinhai grew more and more curious, and he continued to speak, “I won’t force you to name that person, but you’d better answer my next question, Lady Tang.” He looked at the woman intently before continuing, “Do you know what motivated that person to even ask you to do something like that?”

This time, Wu Jinhai only needed an answer to the question, and that was why he was patiently waiting for Tang Yanmei’s answer.

The woman looked nervous once again, but then she opened her mouth to reply, “Actually, it was only recently that I learned of that person’s true identity, Your Highness. It was only recently that I discovered just how powerful that person was. And his motive for doing all of that was to destroy Emperor Bai Guowei.”]
