Suddenly someone knocked on the door they Ming Yue Yin hear the word from outside "Excuse Your majesty, General Yuan is here"

"Brother?" Yuan Xue An surprised. ​​

"Let him in," said Ming Yue Yin.

Yuan Xue An gaze at ming Yue Yin in worry looks, is not appropriated for a man visit a maiden room, what if Hei Shen people misunderstood and ruin her imaged. Ming Yue Yin understands her worry so she gives her a relaxed smile.

"This is Hei Shen place, no one dares to make presumptuous rumor inside Long Ming manor" she raised her eyebrows confidently.

Only then Yuan Xue An feel relief, soon after the door is open but Yuan Shao didn't enter the room but waiting outside, he wears blacks robes from top to the bottom it seems he come in incognito. Ming Yue Yin sigh, she raised from her chair then approach the door "Come in, your sister condition is unwell she can't stay outside, just get in! no one in this place care after all" She waved her hand carelessly.

Yuan Shao looks hesitant but she's right when he comes to Ming Yue Yin courtyard no one looking at him with wondering eyes, this place as weird just like the owner, he reluctantly entered the room.

"Is not that hard wasn't it" Ming Yue Yin teased then she turns around and walks to the lounge room where Yuan Xue An is.

"Brother why are you here?" asked Yuan Xue An.

Yuan Shao saw her sister wearing thick fur shawl and sit near the furnace his heart feel eased, he glads her sister treated nicely inside Zhao Li Xin Manor he also feel grateful for Ming Yue Yin kind hospitality "I'm worried about you so I sneak out from Yuan manor to find you but you are not in your room even your maid didn't know where you are, fortunately, Hei Shen servant told me where you are, who knew you bothering her majesty"

"I'm sorry…" she realizes her misbehaved, she does bother Ming Yue Yin rest.

"Don't fret about it, I just finish my work and I couldn't sleep right away miss Yuan is here to accompany me" Ming Yue Yin wink playfully at Yuan Xue An and successfully make her blush.

Yuan Shao's face becomes gentle, he wonders why she doesn't act like normal Ruler at least normal woman, Ming Yue Yin invites him to sit next to Yuan Xue An chair then her servant served him with the same Pu Erh tea.

"Are you here just to visit your sister" Ming Yue Yin blow her teacup.

"No, I also want to give something to Lord long Ming but the Housekeeprt said I can't disturb him now" he lifts the teacup carefully before he takes a sip.

Ming Yue Yin chuckles "Don't worry, he is busy flirting with Ri Yi, you can meet him tomorrow"

"It seems their relationship is even closer than the rumor said" he smiles meaningfully.

"Yup, so much better to the point is better provoked Long Ming than provoked Ri Yi, he tends to overreacted when it something involved Ri Yi other than that he quite indifferent so you better keep that in mind"

"I noted that" his smile become more dazzling, Ming Yue Yin suddenly becomes nervous she averts her gaze back to her tea.

"How is the situation at your place, you're father might ask a lot of thing about Xue An isn't it" Ming Yue Yin leans her back on the chair lazily.

"He does and that woman also insisted to check Xue An condition so my father sends a few people to check Xue An at the monastery, fortunately, they met with Xue An doppelganger so they convince and return home," said Yuan Shao.

"That woman? Who?" Ming Yue Yin asked.

"Qian Qin Wei, my father's wife," he said in utter disguised on his face.

"Ah" Ming Yue Yin understands his hatred after her own investigation Su Yi told her what happened to Yuan Shao's family she can't help to feel sorry for him.

Yuan Xue An bites her lips, she always feel anxious whenever someone brings up Qian Qi Wei name, she doesn't know why her stepmother hated her so much, every time she looks at her Yuan Xue An feel like a rabbit eyeing by the wolf, why so much hatred and anger in her stepmother's eyes? She asked her Brother once but he always avoids the subject and patted her head and said not to worry about it, but how could she?

"It seems that woman still not give up with Xue An matters huh?" Ming Yu Yin let out a long sigh.

Yuan Shao shifts his gaze to his dejected sister, Yuan Xue An hides half her face behind the teacup but easy to see how much she disrupt by it, Yuan Shao takes a deep breath then he shakes his head "I don't think she ever let Xue An live her life peacefully"

"Brother, why you never told me why stepmother hated me so much" she clenched her winecup nervously.

"Don't call her Mother! She doesn't deserve to be your Mother" Yuan Shao suddenly raised his voice.

Yuan Xue An startled, her body jolted she almost drop her teacup, Yuan Shao realizes he overreacted and he feel guilty for startling his sister, he closes his mouth with his fist then he takes a deep breath "I'm sorry Xue An, I'm sorry your majesty" he bowed at Ming Yue Ming apologetically.

Ming Yue Yin raised her hand "It's fine, call me Ming Yue Yin no one treat me like an empress in this place well except my subordinates" she put down he empty teacup on the table "I don't mean to interfere but from my experience is better to explain everything to your sister, she can't protect herself if she didn't know the truth"

Yuan Shao hesitant but Yuan Xue Yin begging him with her stare, she wanted to know why her family becomes like this, why her Father distant himself from her, why her brother and father have a cold relationship, why her stepmother hated her even her step-sister didn't like her, she never did anything that would upset them but why?

"Please brother, I need to know, I almost fourteen you can't hide this forever" she pleaded earnestly.

Yuan Shao holds his sister hand "You right, but it is not a good story I'm scared it will make you sad you and worsen your condition so I..."

"Brother I'm not that weak, Master Jin Hao also said I can be cured so don't worry please tell me everything" she grips her brother's hand tightly.

He patted his sister head dotingly "Okay…I tell you everything" He begins his story how happy Yuan Fei and Han Xue shi was before the arrival of Qian Qin Wei then how Qian Qi Wei used the Emperor power to wrecked they're family and how they're Mother die miserably after she gives birth with Yuan Xue An, Through the whole story yuan Xue An struggle to hold her tears her hand trembles she can't hold her teacup anymore, so she put down the teacup and her hand clasped together on her knee then tears streaming down on her cheeks no matter how fast she wipes her tears more tears would fall.

After a few hours, yuan Shao finally finishes his story "Now you understand the deep grudges in our family" he sighed "I don't want to leave you but I need more power to make sure your safe but turns out it's not enough, Qian Qin Wei is more vicious than I thought, I almost lost you that day….if not because of Empress….I mean Ming Yue Yin, I might lose you forever"

"Why Father let this happened, why he let step…..that woman hurt us like this" she doesn't want to call Qian Qin Wei stepmother after what she knows.

"If he challenges Qian Qin Wei your Father might lose both of you, in his own way he tries to save you, you might not agree with him but he chooses the bad from the worst" Ming Yue Ying becomes more despondent when she heard directly from him.

"Not really, they're also other option, My father could step down from his position and leave the city" Yuan Shao snort in disdained "But he didn't do that, he doesn't want to disappoint his father and their ancestors who have served the country and he also can't turn his back from the Emperor, such a loyal subordinated isn't he" he makes sarcastic smile.

"Its such bad luck someone like Qian Qin Wei fell in love with your father"

"I wonder" Yuan Shao balled his fist, "I think it got something to do with Yang Ao Shen"

"Yang….is he?" Ming Yue Yin stunned.

"Yes, Yang Qiong Yan Father"
