After hearing Apiao's words, my aunt just sighed silently and said nothing.

Apiao was not in a hurry to reply, and intuition told her that the matter that my aunt had hidden should be quite big and difficult to talk about.

She turned her head and looked at the little prince. She saw the other party reaching out to dip the water in the teacup and writing a sentence on the table.

"Look at my aunt's expression."

After writing this line, the little prince raised his eyebrows at Apiao and smiled faintly.

Apiao turned his face and observed his aunt's expression. Although the surface was very calm, he could also see his aunt's entanglement from the subtle changes.

She looked at the little prince again, and was even more sure of her guess. The thing she had hidden in her aunt was a big deal. If she wanted to speak, she had to give her time to convince herself. If she couldn't do this herself, it would be useless for others to wear down her mouth.

After understanding these things, Apiao was even less anxious. Anyway, she had time to wait. She waved to Arou and asked her to go to the kitchen to cook some soup that was better for her throat.

Arou responded, packed up the food box she had taken before, and stopped when she walked to the door, turned her head and looked at her still silent aunt, left with a sigh, and left silently.

After almost a cup of tea, her aunt slowly raised her head and her eyes fell on Apiao.

"Auntie, have you figured it out?"

"Miss Apiao, I know you or you..." My aunt's eyes turned from Apiao to the little prince, "What do you get from me, but what I want to tell you is that some things are not that I don't say, but that I can't say them. After saying them, they are nothing more than to make you feel troubled."

"Aunt, you won't have to worry about it. We can judge whether it is bothered or not."

"In addition to this, Miss Apiao, I need to correct your point. I don't want to hide anything for them, nor have any fantasies about them. I just simply think that you'd better not know."

"It's because I think it will cause trouble for us, so I think we'd better not know, right?" Apiao gently curled the corners of his lips, "Auntie, you're thinking too much. First of all, we're not as fragile as you. Secondly, can we accept it? Whether we feel troubles is one thing, do you say it or not, do you hide it from us? Deceiving it is another thing. These two natures are completely different, do you understand?"

"But……"

"Auntie, there's nothing," Apiao curled his lips and waved his hand to his aunt. "I want to ask you a question. Do you know what children as old as us hate and annoy the most? "

"I don't know." Aunt shook her head, "What are the sentences?"

"For your own good, you'd better not know that you will be troubled." Apiao shrugged at his aunt, "The adults always do things that deceive us under the banner of being good for us, or always treat us as children, and unilaterally determine that certain things are something we shouldn't know."

"Isn't that right?" My aunt looked at Apiao in confusion, "In our eyes, you are children."

"Aunt, aren't you sorry for saying this?" His Highness sneered, "If you treat us as children, your previous behavior would be to kidnap the child."

"I...I..."

"Your Highness!" Apiao patted the little prince's arm, and told her tone not to be so rushing. She looked at her aunt with a smile, "I didn't say that you did this wrong, but as children, we will be disgusted with such words and dislike listening. Because once we believe such words, we will be very miserable by the so-called kindness of adults. How do you say that sentence?"

She turned to look at the little prince, blinked at her, and saw that she had no reaction, and looked at Wu Shu Dan again.

"What kind of words? When you said this suddenly, we were all confused. "Wu Shu Dan smiled helplessly, "What do you want to say?"

"Sold..."

"Oh, you want to say that you are selling it to adults like your aunt and counting money for them, right?"

"Yes, that's what it means." Apiao snapped his fingers. Seeing that his aunt wanted to fight for something, she waved her hand gently, "Auntie, don't think about how to refute me. Such things are not something that is seen, right?" She raised her eyebrows. "How many times did my aunt harm us in the name of good for us? My aunt should be very clear in her heart, right? Isn't she still making up for her merits this time, and she still wants to continue to do things that hurt us?"

My aunt looked at her and opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say.

"So, aunt, tell me everything you know, don't think about what is good for us or not for us. We don't need this, what we need is your story, no personal emotional story. As for what kind of judgment should be made on this matter, that is our business and you don't need to worry about it."

My aunt thought about it, sighed softly, and nodded to Apiao.

"Okay, I think what you said makes sense. Since you want to know, I will tell you." She looked at the little prince and Apiao, "Actually, my most concerned one is that family scandals should not be made public. Aoki is a child of the Wanyan family no matter what. If you do such a thing, you will lose the face of the Wanyan family. Moreover, Aoki knew that she had caused a big disaster, so she repeatedly told him not to tell it out. It was because I agreed to him that I deliberately concealed it."

"You keep your promise and don't say anything, but you haven't thought about whether His Highness Aoki wants to kill someone to silence him?"

"What do you mean is that I know his biggest secret, and I want to kill me to silence me?" Seeing Apiao nodding slightly, his aunt shook her head, "His secret is far from besieging the city, is it serious to grab the throne?"

"This is not the same. He besieged the city and robbed the throne, which is known to everyone. It is not a secret to be silenced, but..." Apiao looked at his aunt, "The one you know is a real secret, only to you, Your Highness Aoki and a few people know it,"

Seeing his aunt nodding, Apiao sneered, "Auntie, not many of the people present are outsiders, right? Or do you not treat us as your own people at all? If that's the case, Your Highness Aoki should destroy you, after all, you are not from the Wanyan family."
