Seeing the sixth prince's face darken, Chen Hong stopped talking.

The emperor had twelve sons, Gu Changyuan was the sixth, and Gu Yingxun, the third, was named the prince early because he was the legitimate son born to the queen.

Now he has made a marriage arrangement with Li Yingning, the delicate eldest daughter of the Lihou Mansion.

Looking at Gu Changyuan again, his biological mother was a palace maid. She was not valued since she was a child and had a hard time growing up. Even the palace maid who served in the bedchamber was a mediocre person who was casually thrown in.

As the sons of the same emperor, their treatment can be described as the same in heaven and earth.

Willow Branch Alley, Lihou Mansion.

Li Yingning soaked in a bathtub strewn with flower petals, with her eyes closed, seemingly resting, but her body was trembling slightly uncontrollably.

That nightmarish scene flashed through her mind from time to time, making her feel like a knife.

Ci'er.

Her words.

Such a gentle and sensible child, when she was imprisoned in Xiyuan, he stuffed the food he saved under the door every day.

Although his little hands are always dirty, he knows that his mother loves to be clean, and she eats and drinks wrapped in a clean veil.

Sometimes it's a few pieces of pastry, sometimes it's a chicken drumstick, sometimes it's dried fruit preserves.

Tears flowed down his cheeks to his chin and dripped into the tub.

Gu Changyuan, why are you so cruel.

Not even his own children were spared.

Li Yingning opened her eyes, her eyes were blood red.

All must die.

"Miss, it's time to come out. The water will get cold in a while." The maid walked in with folded sleeves and a towel, reminding her softly.

Li Yingning opened her eyes, and all the emotions in her eyes dissipated instantly.

She glanced at Zhexiu and asked quietly: "Where are Zhelan and Jinshu?"

"They are outside. Why are you asking about them? The eldest lady is always taken care of by a servant alone when taking a bath."

Li Yingning didn't say anything. After a while, she asked again: "Is Li Siyao back?"

"The second young lady came back half an hour ago. She said she couldn't find the eldest lady. She was worried that something might happen to you, so she cried a lot. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts."

"She is really a good sister who cares about her sister." Li Yingning slowly stood up from the tub and said intentionally or unintentionally, "Zhe Xiu, you are quite well informed."

Zhexiu didn't realize the deep meaning of her words. He immediately stepped forward and unfolded the towel to wrap her body. However, he found mottled red marks on her body and couldn't help but hesitate: "Miss, what are you..."

Li Yingning looked down, her eyes darkening slightly.

This is what Gu Changyuan left on her.

That bitch.

"Have you seen everything?" Li Yingning asked Zhexiu seriously.

Zhe Xiu nodded: "I saw it, Miss, how did you do this? Let me take a look... this looks like that..."

She reached out and touched it.

Li Yingning held the back of her head, pushed her into the tub, let her struggle for a moment, then lifted her up and said coldly: "It seems you know a lot, you are secretly communicating with Lanyuan's little Jizi."

How long has it been playing?”

Lanyuan is where Li Houye’s concubine Yilan lives.

Yilan is Li Siyao's biological mother.

Xiao Jizi is the servant who serves Aunt Yilan when she travels.

Li Yingning remembered clearly that when she had no choice but to marry Gu Changyuan, only Zhelan and Jinshu followed her. Zhexiu cried and refused, saying that she wanted to stay and serve her old father.

After all, they were maids who grew up together, so Li Yingning agreed softly and left her a generous amount of money. Unexpectedly, Zhe Xiu married the young man not long after.

He didn't go home to take care of his old father at all.

Judging from the time, this Zhexiu must have hooked up with Li Siyao's boy a long time ago.

Zhe Xiu choked on the water, cried and struggled, and shouted: "The eldest lady has wronged this slave. I have always followed the eldest lady. What do I know about such things as secret communication?"

"Aren't you stubborn? Then drink more water and soak it in!"

Li Yingning once again pushed her head into the water with all her strength, letting her kick and struggle without letting go.
