If he wasn't discovered, Ye Zhengqing wouldn't be chased into the mountains. Thinking of this, Li Chenghai seemed to lose his mind and suddenly picked up a vase and smashed it on Su's head.

At that moment, he hated the Su family to the core.

The loud noise and the bright red blood on Su's body made it impossible to hide anything in the room.

Not wanting anyone to die at the imperial estate, Prime Minister Li solemnly ordered the imperial physician to be summoned.

After learning everything, Madam Shen suddenly realized, "So this is what you meant by disintegration."

Li Chenghai was so concerned about Ye Zhengqing.

No wonder.

No wonder Ye Zhen wanted to form an alliance with her.

Is Madam Shen afraid?

Don't worry, even without Ye Zhen, the eldest and second wives' families would still fight to the death, and the second wife's family has never shown them any mercy.

However, with something going on at home, even if she wanted to save face, she couldn't very well invite Ye Zhen to a lavish meal.

Unexpectedly, Ye Zhen approached her the next day.

"What is the lady's daughter's name?"

Madam Shen was puzzled. "Why is the princess suddenly asking this?"

My daughter passed away almost thirty years ago, and no one has mentioned it for many years.

Ye Zhen then asked, "Is the lady's daughter named Li Shuyu?"

Madam Shen realized something and quickly nodded, "Do you know something?"

Ye Zhen nodded, "Yes."

Xie Jinyao was hoping that the Xiao family would take her back to the capital, but instead, she was taken by the Xiao family's people to the Prime Minister's manor in the suburbs of the capital, as if they were going to imprison her there.

She was naturally dissatisfied, so she spoke authoritatively to the Xiao family, saying, "Tell Madam Xiao that I want to move into the Prime Minister's residence as a cousin."

Otherwise, the fact that Li Shuyu's memory was destroyed and she was sold to Pillow Moon Bay could not be hidden. No matter how favored Madam Xiao was, Li Shuyu was still the Prime Minister's only daughter.

Furthermore, Li Shuyu is not dead. Only I can find her whereabouts. Madam Xiao can forget about killing me to silence me. I know far more than this; otherwise, she will definitely regret it.”

Xie Tingzhou's men had been secretly following them and relayed these messages back overnight.

Ye Zhen concealed Xie Jinyao's matter and informed Madam Shen that Li Shuyu, who had been harmed by the Xiao family, might still be alive.

Upon learning that her daughter might still be alive, Madam Shen stood up abruptly, determined to find Madam Xiao and get to the bottom of things.

Ye Zhen stopped her, saying, "Without evidence, are you confident that you can get Madam Xiao to admit it? And right now, the most important thing is to find your daughter's whereabouts."

Madam Shen gradually regained her composure. "Yes, she won't admit it..."

Meanwhile, in the Cui family in the capital, Madam Cui said to her husband, "If there's no evidence, we'll just deny it. We'll say that she coveted the position of Princess Lin and took her sister's place in the bridal sedan chair."

Once she and Prince Lin have consummated their relationship, would the Marquis of Zhongyong really risk becoming an enemy of the Cui family for the sake of a woman who has lost her chastity?

They are plotting to have Cui Yihuan marry into the Lin Prince's mansion in her place.

And they've succeeded. Cui Yihuan is currently drugged and lying unconscious on a bed covered with red satin. All they need to do is cover her head, carry her to the bridal sedan chair, and...
