Wise men do not speak in dark riddles, and the Prince also didn't have the time to engage in charades with them.
Moreover, facing Old Man Ye and Mrs. He, he absolutely possessed the crushing superiority in both status and demeanor. Therefore, these two people wouldn't make him beat around the bush and play mind games with them.
After the Prince left, Mrs. He slid down onto the ground, "It's over, all is over. He indeed knows Little Jiujiu's identity. What do we do if he insists on taking Little Jiujiu away?"
Ye Jiu was her beloved, her hope that sustained her all these years!
Old Man Ye still harbored a sliver of comfort, walked over, and helped Mrs. He up, saying, "Don't fret, what's meant to come will come, and besides, the Prince didn't mention taking the child away, did he? He even urged us to take good care of Little Jiujiu.
This shows that he isn't thinking of taking Little Jiujiu away.
