After a failed entrepreneurial venture, Sang Jueqian inherited her grandfather's grocery store, only to discover that the store's window led to ancient times!
On the first day of open...
Li Junyan took a step back and looked at Zhu Wanying with undisguised disgust in his eyes.
Seeing this, Zhu Wanying smiled sadly, "I knew that if the prince knew I was a barren woman, he would definitely dislike me..."
"You are wrong." Li Junyan interrupted Zhu Wanying, "My dislike for you has nothing to do with whether you are a barren woman or not."
"Impossible!" Zhu Wanying refuted without thinking, "If there is no relationship, why do you despise me?"
“Of course it’s because you’re hypocritical and vicious.
If you are sick, you will envy all healthy people. It is clearly your problem, but you want to impose your pain on others.
They don't know you at all, and don't even know anything about your illness, but they are tortured by you just because they are healthier than you.
"People like you are so dirty that I find them filthy even at the sight of them."
Hearing what Li Junyan said, Sang Jueqian clenched his fists instantly and shouted in his heart: Good scolding!
She announced that Li Junyan would be her substitute in Tingzhou!
If you can curse, curse more!
While agreeing, Sang Jueqian also felt that he had learned something new: it turns out that you can curse people without using dirty words! And you can curse so heartily!
I’ve wasted my time!

Zhu Wanying looked at Li Junyan in disbelief. "Your Highness, how can you say that? Those lowly people are like ants. They die when they die. How can they compare to me?"
"Why not?" Li Junyan sneered, "As a prince, a descendant of the royal family, I still love the people like my own children and strive for their stability and happiness.
You are the daughter of a mere provincial governor, and your maternal grandfather is only a fourth-rank official.
Since you are not a minister of high status in the court and you don't have royal blood, where do you get the confidence to look down on the people?
If there weren't millions of people, would your father have been able to become a governor? Would you have been able to live a life of luxury?
It would be fine if you didn't know how to be grateful, but you actually look down on this and that, and rely on your father's power to do evil.
If a god really protects a vicious person like you, that would be unfair to heaven!"
Li Junyan shook his sleeves and said, "Originally, since your mother was about to pass away, I wanted to keep you by her bedside to fulfill your filial duties and personally send her off.
But now it seems that it is not necessary!"
Li Junyan suddenly turned around and looked at Madam Zhu, "Madam Zhu! Spoiling a child is like killing him. You are also an educated person, don't you understand such a simple truth? She can get to where she is today because of her own reasons, but also because of you!"
Mrs. Zhu closed her eyes in despair, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Originally, she wanted to entrust her two children to the care of the Prince before she died, so that they could live a better life under the protection of the Prince.
But unexpectedly, it was completely self-defeating.
If she had not asked to see Chen Wan, but had someone escort her two children away, would all these things have not happened?
Just by looking at the expression on Mrs. Zhu's face, Li Junyan had already guessed what she was thinking.
“Madam Zhu, don’t worry. I have already sent people to guard the area around the tent. Even if you send someone to escort the siblings, they won’t be able to go more than a hundred meters.
You were still worried about them just now, but now you should be able to rest assured.
After all, once you get down there, you'll be able to get together again soon."
Madam Zhu's breathing quickened. "Your Highness! You! How can you, the dignified Prince Chen, say such harsh words?"
Li Junyan smiled, "Your family has done so many evil things, all kinds of vicious and disgusting things. I am being mean when I tell you a few truths.
Those who don't know would probably think that this world belongs to your Zhu family, and whatever you say is the truth! "
Madam Zhu raised her hand and pointed at the young man kneeling beside the bed, "Your Highness, I...my son has nothing..."
"Mother!" Zhu Wanying interrupted Madam Zhu with a smile, "How can you say that my brother did nothing? Half of my maids were dragged into his room by him and slept with him over and over again. Several of them died in his bed. My brother is no more innocent than I am!"
"Wanying!" Madam Zhu's voice suddenly rose. "What are you talking about?"
Zhu Wanying smiled and walked to the side of the bed, knelt down, held Mrs. Zhu's hand, and when she spoke again, her voice was particularly gentle.
“Mother, our family has long been tied together!
Father is dead, mother, you are dying, and I am dying too. How can I leave my brother alone? He must be so lonely!
Mother, we are a family and we must always be together. This is what you told me before. Have you forgotten? "
Mrs. Zhu's eyes widened as she looked at Zhu Wanying in disbelief.
Her eyes grew wider and wider as she waited, but the next moment, they suddenly lost all their luster and she collapsed dejectedly on the bed.
Mrs. Zhu died.
No one could tell whether she could no longer bear it because her time was up, or was angered to death by Zhu Wanying.
Zhu Wanying didn't seem to care. She raised her hand and gently closed Mrs. Zhu's eyes. "Mother, walk slowly. My brother and I will come to you soon."
As she spoke, Zhu Wanying turned to look at the young man beside her, "Brother, how are we going?"
The young man, who had not spoken a word from beginning to end, suddenly jumped up and grabbed Zhu Wanying's neck with both hands.
"I'll strangle you to death! Zhu Wanying, you're an evil ghost! You're the one who seduced me! It's all your fault! You're about to die, so why can't you just let me go?"
Zhu Wanying was being strangled, but she was still smiling, "Because...we...are a family!"
After saying the last word, Zhu Wanying suddenly reached out her hand to the boy's neck.
Zhu Wanying moved so quickly that Sang Jueqian only saw a flash of cold light.
The next moment, with a "puff" sound, blood gushed out, and a large part of it sprayed on Zhu Wanying's face.
Zhu Wanying didn't seem to care at all. She used both hands to push the boy to the ground. She didn't even look at the boy's still twitching body, but looked straight at Li Junyan.
"My Lord, please don't bother to deal with me.
If I see the goddess after I die, I will definitely ask for your blessing on behalf of the prince."
Li Junyan looked at her expressionlessly and stated the fact, "You won't see her."
Zhu Wanying didn't believe it, "The prince has never died, how can we know it won't happen?"
Sang Jueqian could no longer bear it and spoke directly, "Of course it's because this goddess is alive and well. If you die, you will go to the eighteen levels of hell. How could you possibly see me?
Zhu Wanying, no matter how much hardship you think you have or how unwilling you are, you are breaking the law.
If a prince breaks the law, he will be punished just like the common people. You, a mere daughter of a provincial governor, are not immune.
Whether you are alive or dead, you must atone for what you have done.
All the property left in your family will be divided equally among everyone you have harmed."
