Han De opened his eyes and looked at the still trembling woman. Who knows what horrors she went through to get reduced to such a state. Just thinking about it was giving him a headache.
While this situation was in line with his mother’s way of doing things, it still seemed too much even for her.
‘Perhaps she is getting influenced by the current events. Could it be that the situation is worse than I thought?’
Han De shook his head. Ultimately he had no control over his mother. He had no influence over her either. She might listen for one second and do something else the next.
‘...What will happen when she finds out that father is missing?’
He inadvertently looked over Yao Qing. His blood went cold when he thought of the possibility of his mother actually going insane. If that really happened, he had no confidence in containing her.
Previously he didn’t think it was a realistic scenario since he was already alive and well. The Zhao rebellion was crushed, and the readily apparent internal issues were dealt with. The only foreseeable danger was Xiao Ping. He was an MC that inexplicably became a prince of the Ming Empire. A time bomb waiting to blow up at random. But that was a Han De sized bomb, not a Han Wei sized bomb.
His mother’s instability was potentially a much worse problem than an MC, at least for him. The worst part was that he couldn’t do anything about it. Han De took a very deep breath in and gave out a really long sigh.
‘One thing at a time…’
He gave instructions to Yao Qing to get the woman with pink-colored eyes to one of the side houses and call servants over to take care of her. This woman that was physically trembling at the sight of him clearly knew who he was. It was better to keep her out of sight so he could be out of her mind.
Next, he needed to make preparations. The appearance of the quest was too sudden, and the possible instability of his mother was giving him a bad feeling.
Han De thought for a while, this wasn’t enough.
