Han Ziqi's mother was the King Han's most favored woman. She was made the second queen, and the King deposed the previous Princely Heir to name Han Ziqi as the successor. King Han, notorious for his indulgence, had over a dozen sons. Han Ziqi had elder brothers and younger ones below him, leading to fierce competition for the throne within the Royal Family. Even so, in Sannan, he was a rightful Princely Heir. Other than the King and members of the royal lineage, hardly anyone dared to meddle in his affairs.
Han Ziqi smiled lightly and said, "Third Miss, are the people around you all this unruly? When the master speaks, how can a servant interject out of turn?"
Xiaoqi sneered but did not take such mockery to heart. Fengyu responded, "My younger brother is overly protective of his elder sister. If there was any offense, I hope the Princely Heir will excuse it."
