Three days later, Yan Shiyue, Qu Sinian and others arrived in the capital.

The Dragon Guards were surrounded by people, and the mark of the Duke of Rong's Mansion was also very conspicuous. As soon as people entered the city gate, they saw it.

Many people were secretly surprised. They didn't expect that the relationship between His Highness and the third branch of Prince An's Mansion was not as bad as they imagined. His Highness was in the temporary palace and rushed back to the capital to attend her funeral.

As a result, Sun's roadside sacrifices suddenly increased a lot.

Yan Shiyue returned to the mansion, bathed and changed clothes. Before he finished, he heard the guard outside and the other side of the door report: "Master, someone from Prince An's mansion came to ask, saying that Sun is about to leave. Do you want to see her off?"

? ? Yan Shiyue said: "No need."

After a while, Meng Min also sent her maid Zhuxin over, and Yan Shiyue went directly to Prince Chengping's Palace.

When she asked Zhu Xin on the way, she found out that Meng Min already knew about it, and the one who told her was Yan Ronghua.

At that time, Meng Min learned of Sun's death and came to see her. Yan Ronghua also came and fainted from crying. Meng Min asked someone to treat her and then took her back.

Zhu Xin whispered, "When the Madam was with her, she accidentally saw a wound on her arm, and then she covered it up and didn't let anyone see it, so the Madam became suspicious and asked her to undress to see that her body was covered with wounds, from being beaten or pinched. Then the Madam got angry and didn't let her go back to the Marquis' Mansion. She took her back to the Prince's Mansion and said she would definitely make a decision for her."

...

...

Zhu Xin curled her lips, "I felt sorry for her at the time, thinking she had suffered too much. I didn't expect that after returning home, she kept crying and kept saying sorry to Madam, and then... she said that it was the Third House Madam who did what Your Highness did back then."

Yan Shiyue raised her eyebrows: "And then?"

Zhu Xin said: "Madam was very sad. She said she never thought that in all these years, she never saw the people around her clearly. She didn't make any excuses, but just kept crying there. Madam ignored her, but didn't drive her away either."

As he was talking, they arrived and saw Yan Ronghua kneeling in front of Meng Min's door with his head bowed from a distance.

As soon as Yan Shiyue arrived, tears fell from her eyes. She kowtowed as she spoke, "Your Highness, we are the ones who are sorry for you! It's us mother and daughter who are sorry for you. My mother said that she had this foolish idea all for me, so that I could be loved by my second aunt. Everything is my fault. I am sorry for Your Highness. It's us who made Your Highness endure so much suffering for so many years. We are the ones who are sorry for you..."

Every time she spoke a word, she kowtowed loudly. Soon, blood began to seep out of her forehead and rolled down her face together with her tears. She looked extremely miserable.

Yan Shiyue looked at her quietly.

Meng Min also came out of the room and called out, "Yuer."

Yan Shiyue took a step forward and supported her. Meng Min glanced at Yan Ronghua and choked up for a moment: "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that it was because I loved her too much that I hurt my Yue'er..."

"Mother," Yan Shiyue said softly, "How can we possibly guess what a bad guy is thinking? This is not Mother's fault, Mother, please don't think too much about it."

As the two talked, Yan Ronghua could be heard crying. She seemed to have lost all hope and just kept kowtowing without saying a word to defend herself: "It's my fault, all my fault. Your Highness wants to punish me, Ronghua has nothing to say. Ronghua is willing to give everything she has to atone for the sins of our third house. I only ask Your Highness not to blame my mother..."

What a filial daughter!

Yan Shiyue finally spoke, and said slowly: "You know, when I caught Zhou Yu, he told me that I should be grateful to him, because it was because of his kindness that I survived."

Yan Ronghua paused slightly, then looked up at her, his face covered in blood and tears.

Yan Shiyue continued calmly, "Of course, I think this is bullshit. However, things have changed, and my grandfather is still alive, so I didn't plan to do anything. I just took her money and gave it to my mother. That's it. You should be very clear about this. After all, if I want her life, it would be easy to do it openly or secretly."

Yan Ronghua listened quietly.

Yan Shiyue added: "After taking her money, it won't be difficult for her to survive. At most, her life won't be as comfortable as before."

She paused, "As for you, it's true that you are greedy and vain, and you married into the Marquis's Mansion by scheming. You deserve it, but it's not a crime punishable by death... If you just want to escape from that place, there are countless ways, such as making a scene? Asking grandfather for help? Asking my mother for help? Or just telling me the truth when you come to me? But why don't you do that?"

Yan Ronghua's lips trembled, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Yan Shiyue continued, "Because, if you did that, you would be a notorious divorced woman, with no hope of turning over a new leaf in your life... So even if it comes to that, you are still scheming. You hope that I will 'discover' something and then 'take the initiative' to reach out to save you, so that while you are divorced, you can also use my power to shock the Marquis' Mansion and get as many benefits as possible. In the future, maybe you can use this to turn over a new leaf."

She stared at her: "Because you think this way, your target must be me, not my grandfather who is careless, nor my mother who is gentle and tolerant. Is that right or not?"

Yan Ronghua stared at her blankly, and gradually panicked...

Yes, it is.

But why did she say this at this time? What did she mean?

Yan Shiyue sneered: "Why should I tell you this? Because I really don't understand you. You played such a good hand so badly. It's really unique. I originally thought that you were just too clever and self-serving... But I didn't expect that you don't even have humanity."

Yan Ronghua was shocked and said, "Your Highness! I don't understand what Your Highness means!"

"Don't you understand?" Yan Shiyue said, "Then let me tell you, my shadow guard has been at Prince An's mansion and witnessed the whole process with his own eyes."

Yan Ronghua's expression suddenly changed drastically.

Yan Shiyue stopped talking and helped Meng Min back to the room.

After a moment, Yan Ronghua suddenly let out a howl, which was so shrill that it didn't sound like a human voice: "What have I done wrong! I just want to live! What have I done wrong!! I want to live a better life, what's wrong with that! You don't understand at all! You are a princess! Of course you don't understand what kind of life I live..."

What day?

Living in the most powerful Prince An's Mansion in the capital! With fine clothes and delicious food, and servants everywhere, how many people in the world would not want such a life?

The reason for being unsatisfied is just because of greed!

Yan Shiyue really had no sympathy for her cries of pain.

Yan Ronghua was sent out of Prince Taiping's Palace.

Yan Shiyue comforted Meng Min for a long time. As soon as she entered the palace, the Fourth Prince came out and asked, "Are you back because of your Third Aunt's matter?"

Yan Shiyue shook her head: "No."

The fourth prince nodded: "I don't think so. Then why did you come back?"
