It's different for my niece Mengyue. An unmarried girl was tricked by a man into giving birth to a child. Even if the outside world knew that my niece was deceived, they would never sympathize with her. Instead, they would use the most vicious language to evaluate my niece and look at Mengyue with strange eyes.
As Mengyue's uncle, he didn't even know his niece existed until she grew up, let alone loved her.
Now that he has learned of his niece's existence and heard about the suffering she has endured, he feels so heartbroken. How could he let his niece endure the malice that she should not have to endure at her age?
But just when he made up his mind and was about to discuss with the princess and his mother to put Mengyue's child under Yunzhou's name.
Unexpectedly, Li's next words immediately overturned all his previous thoughts.
No matter what, Yun Zhou is just the second son of a royal family. The third prince is different. He is the legitimate son of the emperor.
If it weren't for the fact that the First and Second Princes' families were so powerful, and if many officials in the court hadn't sided with them, the Third Prince would have been the ruler of the Eastern Palace long ago.
What's more, the third prince is already the crown prince in name. After all, the emperor issued an imperial decree last year, and the third prince also successfully completed the task of resettling hundreds of thousands of refugees in Qingshan Prefecture.
Normally, when the Third Prince returned to the capital, he would be formally enthroned as the Crown Prince. However, the Emperor was in poor health, and the Third Prince was not in the capital, so the ceremony had been delayed.
But in his heart, the position of crown prince belongs to the third prince.
Some time ago, he was worried that the Third Prince was not in the capital, and how he could get in touch with the Third Prince and join the Third Prince's camp.
Unexpectedly, the Third Prince asked the butler to bring the betrothal gifts to the mansion. Although he was a little confused, it was undeniable that he was very happy in his heart.
Although it was officially announced that the Third Prince was marrying his cousin from Prince An's Mansion, the marriage he was actually referring to was Li Mengyue, the daughter of his younger sister.
He was well aware of this and secretly sent people to Xingying Village to bring his niece Mengyue back to the palace.
What he didn't expect was that Yun Ran from the Prime Minister's Mansion was actually interested in the identity of his cousin and asked Prime Minister Yun to bring her to the mansion to recognize her as a relative.
He drove the people out, but Yun Ran was not giving up. He started with his sister, lived in the palace, and moved to Xinyue Courtyard.
Although he did not agree with the girl's behavior, he did not interfere.
After all, Yun Ran was indeed his sister's adopted daughter, and she had been raised for more than ten years. It goes without saying that there was affection between the two girls.
He could also understand why his sister let Yun Ran live in the mansion.
But his sister never expected that agreeing to let Yun Ran live in the palace would lead to trouble.
He knew very well Yun Ran's ambition and what his purpose was in moving into the palace.
Thinking that he had people investigate Yun Ran and found out about what he had done to his niece Meng Yue since he left Xingqi Village, went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to recognize his relatives, and what he had done to her, he wanted to just kill him and be done with it.
After thinking it over again and again, he finally gave up the idea because he wanted to leave Yun Ran to his niece. As soon as he relaxed his mind, Yun Ran took advantage of the opportunity and reached out to the old lady.
Although he had no direct evidence to prove that Yun Ran was responsible for the old lady's abnormal behavior, it was almost certain.
Just when the old lady's side had calmed down, Yun Ran started making trouble with his sister again.
To be honest, he really thought Yun Ran was a little weird. After all, Yun Ran went to the old lady's yard twice, and the old lady became abnormal.
The old lady forbade Yun Ran to go there again, so Yun Ran changed his mind and came to his sister's yard.
