An hour later the advisors and court officials exited the imperial court. Viscount Wei let out a tired sigh and was about to exit when a maid came up to him.

”The empress would like to meet you.” The maid curtsied and waited for his reply. Viscount Wei nodded his head and the followed the maid to his sister.

”Your highness.” Viscount Wei bowed politely.

Wei Xia Chen smiled and gently helped her brother up. ”Brother, I've told you so many time that when there's only the two of us you can call me by my name.” Her smile broadened to show her two dimples when her brother chuckled.

”Okay okay. Xiao Xia why have you called this old man out today?” Viscount Wei sat down as Wei Xia Chen poured out two cups of tea.

”Old man?” Wei Xiao Chen raised her brows. ”Brother if you're an old man then what does that make me?” She pouted and Viscount Wei chuckled once again. Wei Xia Chen is only a few years younger than her brother and although she is in her late thirties her face certainly does not reflect her age.

”Brother I want to ask about little Mingxia and Mingxue.”

”Mingxia and Mingxue? What for?” Viscount Wei took a sip of his tea.

”Brother, your daughters are almost of age and with Mingxia's sixteenth birthday coming up isn't it time to consider their marriages?” Hearing the word marriages, Viscount Wei set down his cup and folded his hand on his lap. It wasn't that he haven't considered this problem, in fact he was considering it just the other day but one part of him wants to selfishly keep them with him.

”I haven't consider it yet.” He softly said but he can't fool his sister.

”Brother, you know that you can't keep them next to you forever. You have to learn to let go.” Viscount Wei remained stoic and did not reply to his sister's advice. ”Brother, Mingxia's sixteenth birthday is coming up and I'm assuming you are throwing a party for her. How about I choreograph the celebration?”

”You? Are you sure?” Wei Xia Chen smiled again to reveal her two dimples and nodded her head. ”Don't worry, I'll make sure that it'll be the celebration to remember.” Her brother let out a sigh and nodded his head in agreement.

He could already guess why his sister wanted to plan Mingxia's celebration but how could he reject his sister's offer? Especially now that she is the empress he can no longer stop her now.
