The Return of the Evil Concubine: The whole continent is shaking

"The Royal Grandmother gave me such an important thing. I'm only five years old. Isn't the Royal Grandmother afraid that I will play with it?" Yan Li was a little surprised when she heard it.

This bracelet has great power.

"I believe Li'er knows her limits, doesn't she?" the Queen Mother said and looked at Yan Li.

"That's right, thank you for your trust, Grandmother." Yan Li smiled when she heard that.

"Li'er, are you really Gongsun Hong's granddaughter?" The Queen Mother still found it hard to believe that such a cute and clever girl could be Gongsun Hong's granddaughter.

"I am indeed the daughter brought back by Gongsun Yue, but Gongsun Hong has never acknowledged that I am his granddaughter until I was driven out of the general's mansion by him and my identity was exposed. Only then did he shamelessly try to claim me back." Yan Li replied.

"How can there be such a cheap thing in the world? When it was no longer of use, he just threw it away. Now that he thinks it has some use, he wants to take it back." The Queen Mother was very angry.

"Grandmother, don't be angry. I won't go back." Yan Li patted the back of her hand and comforted her.

"Good child, just stay in Prince Zhan's Mansion. I don't think Gongsun Hong has the courage to go to Prince Zhan's Mansion to snatch people away." After the Queen Mother said this, she looked at Yan Li with heartache.

"Your Highness the Queen Mother, Concubine Gao, Concubine Chen, and Concubine Mei request a meeting," the eunuch outside reported.

"Let them in." The Queen Mother said coldly.

"Come, Li'er, sit next to the Empress Dowager." The Queen Mother took Yan Li's hand.

Yan Li obediently sat down next to the Queen Mother.

Soon, three beautifully dressed women came in.

One of the women's eyes flashed when she saw Yan Li.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother." The three of them knelt down and saluted to the Queen Mother.

"Get up." The Queen Mother said coldly.

When the three looked up and saw that the Queen Mother had regained her youthful beauty, they were all shocked beyond words.

"Empress Dowager, you?" Concubine Gao spoke, her eyes full of surprise.

"Are you talking about my appearance? This is all thanks to Li'er. She gave me a beauty pill as a gift." The Queen Mother said happily.

The three concubines were very envious when they heard this. The beauty pill, that was the kind of beauty pill that only Venerable Gu Cang could refine.

So the three of them turned their eyes to Yan Li.

"Are you Li'er?" One of the women looked at Yan Li excitedly.

Yan Li looked at her in confusion.

Who is this woman? Why is she so excited to see me as if I were seeing gold coins?

"Concubine Mei, do you know Li'er?" asked the Queen Mother.

"In reply to the Queen Mother, my maternal family is the Gongsun family, and Gongsun Yue is my elder sister." Gongsun Mei's eyes were red with excitement.

"Li'er, I am your aunt." Concubine Mei looked at Yan Li.

Yan Li's face darkened when he heard this.

"I'm sorry, I have no relationship with the Gongsun family anymore. Please don't recognize me as a relative without authorization." Yan Li's tone was extremely cold.

It's really funny, he even kissed his aunt.

Where was she when she was bullied and driven out of the general's mansion?

Maybe she had completely forgotten that she had such a nephew.

Now that my identity has changed, all kinds of demons and monsters have come out to claim to be my relative.

"Li'er, it's all your fault. I have been living in the imperial palace and have been unable to take care of you. It's understandable that you don't recognize me as your aunt." Concubine Mei wiped away her tears as she spoke.

"Come on, stop it. Look, even though you appear to be crying, you don't have any tears at all." Yan Li said, looking at Concubine Mei with contempt.

"Puchi..." The Queen Mother couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard Yan Li's words and saw Yan Li's little expression.

Concubine Gao: ...

Chen Fei: ...

Is this a five-year-old baby? Why is my princess already seven or eight years old but not as smart as a five-year-old baby?

"Li'er, I really am your aunt, please don't disbelieve it." Concubine Mei no longer pretended to wipe away her tears.

“Concubine Mei, Li’er has nothing to do with the Gongsun family anymore. Please don’t force her to recognize you as a relative. It’s meaningless.” The Queen Mother said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Queen Mother, I am sorry for my impoliteness. When I saw Li'er just now, I couldn't help but think of my sister who has been missing for many years. That's why I was so sad." Seeing that the Queen Mother was unhappy, Concubine Mei said quickly.

"Well, I miss you and my sister so much, so I won't make a fuss about it this time." The Queen Mother waved her hand.

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your understanding." Concubine Mei looked grateful.

"Li'er, are you hungry? I heard from Yi'er that you will be hungry if you don't eat for a while. Come, have some snacks first, and the Royal Grandmother will have someone prepare delicious food for you." The Queen Mother picked up a plate of snacks and stuffed it into Yan Li's arms.

"Thank you, Grandmother." Yan Li's eyes lit up when she saw the snacks, and she picked them up and started eating.

When Concubine Mei saw that Yan Li was so favored by the Empress Dowager, her eyes kept rolling around, and no one knew what she was up to.

"Li'er, before your sister left, she gave me this letter and said that she would give it to you when you grow up. I see that you are sensible now, so I will give it to you." After saying this, Concubine Mei took out a letter from the space and handed it to Yan Li.

"My mother left it behind?" Yan Li took the letter and looked at it carefully. The letter had not been opened, proving that Gongsun Mei did not peek.

So Yan Li opened the letter and started reading.

"It turns out that Gongsun Hong's suspicion was correct." After reading the letter, Yan Li smiled.

"Li'er, what's going on?" Hearing Yan Li's words, King Zhan looked at her in confusion.

"Brother, I'm so happy. I really have nothing to do with the Gongsun family. I was rescued by my mother. I don't have the blood of the Gongsun family." Yan Li happily showed the letter to King Zhan.

Gongsun Mei was stunned when she heard this!

Unexpectedly, Yan Li was not Gongsun Yue's daughter. Now she can really draw a clear line with the Gongsun family.

She didn't want to acknowledge anyone from the Gongsun family in the first place, and now even that pitiful trace of bloodline no longer exists.

"Thank you for keeping this letter for me for so long. This is a saint-level healing pill. Now we are even." Yan Li took out a saint-level healing pill and handed it to Concubine Mei.

When Concubine Mei saw the holy-level healing pill, her eyes lit up and she quickly reached out to take it.

"Li'er, do you really not recognize anyone from the Gongsun family?" Gongsun Mei looked reluctant.

"We are even now." Yan Li said and sat back next to the Queen Mother.

Although Concubine Mei was very disappointed that Yan Li had made such a clear distinction between her and her, she was still excited to have obtained a saint-level elixir.

After the emperor's three concubines took their leave, Yan Li, Prince Zhan, and Prince Xiao accompanied the empress dowager for dinner.

"Li'er, when are you going to get back the things your mother left for you?" King Zhan looked at Yan Li.

Gongsun Yue told her in the letter that she had left a marrow cleansing pill and a jade pendant for Yan Li, which might be related to Yan Li's life experience.

And tell her where she put it.

It seems that Gongsun Yue knew Gongsun Hong very well, which is why she hid the things instead of giving them to Gongsun Hong.

"Why not do it at night?" Yan Li said and looked at King Zhan.

"Okay, I'll go with you." King Zhan nodded.
