In the morning, Wang Hao got ready to leave for the palace. He first gave morning greetings to his father and then left to meet Yin Na. Last night he was informed that Yin Na was crying.

Yin Na was delighted to see her brother in the morning.

"Brother Wang looks good in maroon robes,

" She said and passed a smile to him.

"Brother Wang, take Princess Bai out with you. She will feel good, and this way, you two will get close,

" she suggested to him.

"Ahh, I am getting butterflies even thinking about this,

" Yin Na said.

Wang Hao ended up smiling.

"Your suggestion is great. I will take the Emperor's permission,

" he asserted.

"Brother Wang, if you give her a hairpin or a jade ring, then her heart will flutter for you. She will then respond to your feelings soon,

" stated Yin Na with glistening eyes.

"I have not bought any hairpin or a jade ring. I will only have a little conversation with the Princess. Making her comfortable is important at this moment. Making her see my loyalty towards her is necessary. Gifts can be given later. The most powerful thing in this world is your actions. I will prove Princess Bai through my actions. People promise many things but only a few fulfill them,

" Wang Hao said.

Yin Na realized that she was in a hurry while confessing to Huo Jin. She should have waited for more. It was true that she did not know anything about Huo Jin's past except a few things.

"Brother Wang, do you know everything about Princess Bai's past?

" She questioned him.

"Umm… I know a few things. However, I never asked her much. We never had any communication regarding that. Though I am fully aware of the life she had with her late husband. It was not a good one,

" Wang Hao told her.

"Ohh.

"

Wang Hao found that Yin Na was thinking something, so he asked her,

"Did something happen last night?

"

"Huh?

" Yin Na was flustered to hear that.

"Don't hide anything from your elder brother,

" Wang Hao told her.

Yin Na clutched the material of her dress. Huo Jin had told her that she should tell Wang Hao about Zhou Xuweng, but how could she! Wang Hao was going to take Princess Bai out and if she told him about yesterday's incident, then he would first solve that matter.

"Nothing, Brother Wang,

" she replied and passed him a tiny smile.

Wang Hao understood that his sister lied to him because she wanted to solve the matter with Huo Jin in her own way. He had no idea that Yin Na was troubled about something else.

"Did you tell Huo Jin that you like him?

" Wang Hao asked her straightforwardly.

"Ahh, I did. But Huo Jin refused to accept my feelings,

" Yin Na replied and lowered her eyes.

"His heart is broken. Don't give up, Yin Na,

" Wang Hao cheered up. Yin Na was overwhelmed to hear that. Wang Hao was indeed a supportive elder brother. She could not even imagine her life without him. Tears formed in her eyes recalling her blood brother never cared for her while an unknown man called her his sister, gave her everything, and also protected her.

"Brother Wang, you are indeed a great person. Princess Bai will surely respond to your feelings. I will be the happiest person if she does that,

" Yin Na proclaimed and smiled.

Wang Hao saw the tears in her eyes.

"You are getting emotional. What did you recall?

" Wang Hao waited for her answer.

"Brother Wang even knows what's going on in my mind,

" she replied.

"Brother Wang, you came to find me even after so many years. You called me your sister in this world which is full of immoral men. My own blood brother sold me for a few pennies. He didn't even care how I would be used?

Brother Wang kept his promise to me. That's why he is a great man with high values. It would be a loss for the Princess if she refuses your feelings,

" Yin Na pronounced.

"You are my sister, Yin Na. I had to keep my promise. Though, I am sad about the time you had to spend in the Brothel House,

" Wang Hao said and placed his hand over hers.

"Princess Bai is a little sensitive towards men. Prince Yongzheng used to beat her up and it's not easy to trust another man. It will surely take a little time, but I won't give up. You are the sister of Wang Hao. You also should not give up. Understand Huo Jin and talk to him. Huo Jin is a tough man. It is not going to be easy to win his heart,

" Wang Hao advised her.

"Can Brother Wang tell me more about Huo Jin, if he is not getting late?

" Yin Na asked him.

"No, I am not getting late. I will tell you,

" Wang Hao replied.

"Huo Jin is not the type of person who will get swayed easily. When he was a slave, the only person who showed care towards him was Xinyue. That's why he was loyal to her even when he was on the verge of getting a death sentence. Though it was all one-sided, he still did not care about him. You need to be extremely patient around him and also need to make him feel your feelings towards him,

" Wang Hao told her a little about Huo Jin.

"He said that he's unable to forget her. I think Xinyue was indeed a great woman. He said that she changed because of her father,

" Yin Na stated.

"That's the problem. He thinks wrong. Xinyue never cared for him. He was merely a puppet for her. This difference Huo Jin cannot understand since he had no family to understand him. In an alone world, he grew up where only one person showed care towards him,

" proclaimed Wang Hao.

Yin Na nodded her head.

"I understand, Brother Wang,

" she said and thanked Wang Hao.

"I know that you will win his heart,

" Wang Hao said and stood up.

"I will see you later in the evening,

" he said and walked out of the room.

As he came to the Courtyard, he saw Huo Jin, who greeted him.

"Where is General Wang heading to?

" Huo Jin asked.

"To the Palace,

" Wang Hao replied. He did not say anything to him regarding Yin Na and took his leave.

"Did Yin Na not inform General Wang about yesterday's incident?

" Huo Jin wondered. He thought of meeting her and went to her room.

Yin Na was astonished to see Huo Jin. It was unbelievable to her that he came to meet her in the morning. Taking a seat on the cushion, he initiated the conversation.

"Why did you not tell about Zhou Xuweng?

" He queried her.

"I will tell him later,

" Yin Na replied.

"You shall not take it lightly,

" Huo Jin affirmed.

"Brother Wang is meeting Princess Bai. I don't want him to ruin his day because of me. Also, Zhou Xuweng will never come after me. He now knows that I am the sister of General Wang,

" she stated.

"Yin Na, he will harass other women. At least after General Wang's action, he will not do that,

" Huo Jin made her understand.

Yin Na nodded.

"Huo Jin, this time is crucial for Brother Wang. He is working hard to get into Princess Bai's heart. That's why I cannot tell him now. I will surely tell him later,

" Yin Na assured him.

"Okay,

" Huo Jin said and stood up from the cushion.

"You are leaving?

"

Huo Jin arched his brow when Yin Na immediately stood up and said,

"Let's have breakfast together.

"

Huo Jin wanted to refuse when Yin Na quickly called a servant inside. She ordered her to set the breakfast table for them.

"Huo Jin, you told me that you will teach me archery. Why don't you start teaching me now? I would have asked Brother Wang, but he is busy again,

" Yin Na stated.

"Okay. I will teach you. But why do you want to learn it?

" Huo Jin asked her.

"I heard from General Wang that the Empress once saved the Emperor in a heroic style,

" Yin Na said and smiled. Huo Jin was stunned to hear that.

"What do you mean?

" He asked her.

"Don't you know? Oh, I will tell you. Let's sit down,

" she told him and they both got seated on the cushions.

"When they were Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, they had gone to the South-Western Province. There an assassin tried to shoot down the Emperor. The Empress came onto a horse and shot down the arrow to defend the Emperor. Generally, men are considered heroes but the Empress ended that myth,

" Yin Na said delightfully.

The servant had set the breakfast table for them and left.

"Huo Jin, I also want to learn it, and then I will save my future man if he ever gets into a problem,

" Yin Na asserted. Huo Jin raised his eyebrow again as he recalled Yin Na's confession.

"Sure,

" he answered and picked up the chopstick.
