"Princess, you can't go in..."

Jiang Li turned a deaf ear and went straight to the inner room.

This was not the first time that Xie Jun stayed out overnight, but it was the first time that he brought someone back to the house.

She suppressed her anger and pulled open the curtain, but her breath was caught when she saw the face clearly.

"Xie Yan?! How could you two…"

Jiang Li staggered back and bumped into the screen, staring at the two disheveled men on the couch.

One of them is her husband, Xie Jun, the son of the Marquis of Yongning, and the other is his "good sister" Xie Yan!

Xie Yan nestled in Xie Jun's arms like a boneless snake, "Brother, did sister-in-law misunderstand something? We are not related by blood, why is she so fierce~"

"Don't be afraid, Yanyan." Xie Jun hugged Xie Yan tightly, turned his head and saw the centipede-like scar on Jiang Li's left face, and suddenly felt disgusted, "Jiang, if you know what's good for you, you should ask to leave."

Jiang Li clenched his palms, "Tomorrow is Lang'er's promotion banquet, and you can't affect Lang'er's future even if you mess around!"

Xie Yan giggled, her voice sweet and clear, "Jiang Li, you don't have to worry about Lang'er. He is my biological son, we will take good care of him!"

what? !

The truth hit Jiang Li like a hammer, and his eyes went dark. He felt so heartbroken that he almost couldn't stand.

Over the past few decades, she didn't care about not having the love of her parents or the affection of her husband.

She gave all her warmth to her son Xie Yulang, hoping that he would no longer suffer the pain she had endured and would live a prosperous and worry-free life.

For 19 years, she worked hard to help him become a great talent in Shengjing and secured him a position in the Dali Temple.

Who knew that this would be a good opportunity for this pair of "good brother and sister"?

Jiang Li opened his blood-red eyes and managed to squeeze out a few words from between his teeth, "...Where is my child?"

Xie Yan smiled. The more Jiang Li collapsed, the happier she was. "You and the bandit's triplets? They were drowned at birth. What a pity!"

In a flash, all the strangeness that Jiang Li had once noticed came to his mind.

She was in a coma for a day after giving birth and woke up. The midwife said that it was difficult for multiple babies to survive and two of them died. Although she was extremely sad, she also knew that the survival rate of premature multiple babies was low.

But she never expected that her own flesh and blood would be murdered so cruelly!

Moreover, Xie Yan kept saying that her own flesh and blood were the children of bandits...

Xie Jun stared at the dumbfounded Jiang Li and sneered.

"We will hold the funeral at an appropriate time. It will not affect Lang'er's future. You can go without worry. Come, drag her away!"

The maids and servants who had been waiting outside the door rushed in, covered Jiang Li's mouth, and dragged her back to the east courtyard.

In the darkness, she seemed to hear a familiar voice.

"After all, you raised me, Madam Du. Send the Crown Princess off with mulberry and hemp paper. Don't let her suffer too much!"

The wet yellow paper was covered on the face one by one, blocking all the air that could be breathed in the mouth and nose.

The pain of chest tightness and distension gradually eroded Jiang Li's consciousness, and his pounding heart gradually weakened.

Before the hour of Xu, the Yongning Marquis' Mansion returned to peace.

In the early February of the 130th year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the weather was getting warmer, the willow branches were turning green, and the peach blossoms were beginning to bloom.

There was a sudden heavy snowfall last night. Although the sky cleared up this morning, when I looked out the window, the sky and the earth were still covered in white.

It was the same as when she died in her previous life.

Jiang Li withdrew his gaze, put on a thick cloak and was about to go out.

There was a sudden commotion in the courtyard, and a small figure ran in angrily, followed by a string of maids and old women. However, they did not dare to rush in and all waited in front of the courtyard.

Only that little figure rushed to Jiang Li and said, "I hate you! Why did you make the decision to let me go to school without my permission?"

He said angrily: "Hurry up and drive that old man away! I won't go to school! I don't like those classmates either!"

Jiang Li lowered his eyes and looked coldly at Xie Yulang, who was only six and a half years old. His disgust for her was written all over his face.

He never had any respect for her, and he never even took the initiative to call her mother.

This was his second day at school. On the first day, Xie Yulang insulted the great scholar-disciple whom she had invited with great kindness, and also beat up many of his classmates.

In her previous life, she postponed the banquet at Prince Yong's mansion and went to the teacher's house in person to apologize. She also spent a lot of time and effort to smooth over the troubles he had caused, and she finally coaxed him to go back to school after talking her mouth off.

Xie Yulang studied for thirteen years, and she had been planning for him for thirteen years, which eventually made Xie Yulang known as a learned and talented man. However, in the end, she was ordered by Xie Yulang to be suffocated to death with mulberry and hemp paper.

The one she raised was a beast that was ungrateful and cruel.

"It's up to you. If you don't want to go, then don't go."

Jiang Li turned her eyes away. If she looked at Xie Yulang any longer, she was afraid that she would strangle him to death.

She turned her head to look at the maid Qingzhu, "Are the carriages and horses ready?"

Qingzhu said quickly: "Okay, Madam Hou. We can leave anytime."

Xie Yulang suddenly felt as if someone was strangled by the neck and stared at Jiang Li in disbelief.

She actually didn't let him go to school. In the past, when he didn't want to do things according to Jiang Li's requirements, Jiang Li would try every means to coax him whenever he made a fuss, and finally force him to do it!

Xie Yulang vaguely felt that something was different about Jiang Li, and an inexplicable fear surged in his heart.

Deliberately said: "I'm serious! I want to go play with my aunt! Humph!"

He knew that Jiang Li hated him being close to his aunt Xie Yan the most.

She will definitely discipline him and make him go to school obediently, and everything will return to normal!

Jiang Li pulled the corner of his lips and sneered: "Send the young master to Wangchunyuan."

Wangchunyuan is Xie Yan's courtyard.

"I do not want!"

Xie Yulang exploded immediately, Jiang Li really didn't care about him anymore!

He stepped back suddenly, and said to Jiang Li with grievance and anger: "I won't go!"

Xie Yulang didn’t understand why Jiang Li suddenly changed. Didn’t she love him the most?

Jiang Li frowned, her ears hurt from the sharp sound. She glanced at Xie Yulang, then turned and walked towards the door, ignoring him.

Xie Yulang was not willing to give in. He followed him like a follower and asked anxiously, "Where are you going?"

Jiang Li said nothing and walked faster and faster. Xie Yulang's short legs couldn't catch up with her and he was soon left behind.

Seeing Jiang Li disappear from the Moon Cave Gate, Xie Yulang kicked the maid angrily, "It's all your fault, you walked too slowly!"

On the other side, Jiang Li got on the carriage. Qingzhu glanced at the veil on Jiang Li's face and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Princess, why did you suddenly decide to attend the banquet at Prince Yong's Mansion?"

Seven years ago, Jiang Li was abducted by bandits and her appearance was disfigured. She was hastily married into the Yongning Marquis' Mansion and has never stepped out of the mansion since then.

Jiang Li lowered her brows, raised her hand and touched the veil, through which she could vaguely feel the scar on her left cheek.
