Jiang Cangsong looked at Jiang Li with disappointment: "You, Li'er, I am your father. Even if you entered the palace as your sister and was given the title of concubine, it cannot sever the blood relationship between us!"

"Now you don't even want to call me dad anymore. Are you in such a hurry to cut off ties with us?!"

Jiang Li listened to Jiang Cangsong's words without changing her expression, then stood up and slowly walked towards Jiang Cangsong.

"Is Magistrate Jiang done with his speech?"

She came in front of Jiang Cangsong and looked down at him, completely reversing their previous positions.

Jiang Cangsong prostrated himself at her feet, his hands clenched into fists. He never thought that one day he would kneel at the feet of Jiang Li, a rebellious girl! "Li'er, you..."

"Please be careful with your words, Prefect Jiang. I am now a virtuous concubine, and it is not your turn as a mere prefect to address me by my name."

Jiang Li directly interrupted Jiang Cangsong's hypocrisy, and after finding out his purpose, she was too lazy to continue pretending to be nice to him.

"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame me!"

Jiang Cangsong hastily changed his words, the veins on his forehead bulging slightly due to excessive endurance.

Damn it!

She actually dared to show him off on the spot. Wait a minute, when the time comes, this evil creature will be so arrogant after the news of her sister entering the palace and committing the crime of deceiving the emperor spreads throughout Kyoto! How could Jiang Li not see Jiang Cangsong's forbearance?

Although he is not Jiang Cangsong's biological father, Jiang Li has lived in the same mansion for more than ten years and knows very well how deep Jiang Cangsong's thoughts are.

Since he dared to enter the palace today, he must have made some preparations.

But Jiang Li was not afraid. It was no longer a secret in the palace that she entered the palace to replace her sister. Even if Jiang Cangsong wanted to make things difficult for her in this matter, it would depend on whether the people would buy it.

Should they choose to believe His Majesty and the court officials, or a prefect who lies all the time? She believes that the people have their own decision.

"Prefect Jiang keeps saying that I am replacing Jiang Zhi in the palace. Does that mean he thinks the position of concubine should belong to Jiang Zhi?"

"It's good that you know! If you hadn't rashly replaced my identity, how could it be your turn to sit on the throne of concubine?!"

Jiang Zhi roared angrily regardless of the pain at the corner of his mouth, covering his swollen face and staring at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li was not annoyed. She raised her foot and slowly walked towards Jiang Zhi who was standing beside her. She leaned over and pinched Jiang Zhi's chin, looking at her face which was as swollen as a pig's head.

"You keep saying that I took your place and replaced you, but do you know that the imperial edict for consorting you is written with my name, Jiang Li, and not your name, Jiang Zhi?"

"Do you really think that you could deceive His Majesty by substituting one thing for another? Now that I have been named a concubine, you come up to me eagerly and say that I replaced Jiang Zhi. When you knocked me unconscious and carried me into the palace, did you ever think that this day would come?"

"Let me go, let me go! Jiang Li, stop bluffing here, I will expose your false identity in front of His Majesty later!"

Jiang Zhi struggled continuously, trying to break free from Jiang Li's hand on her chin. As she struggled, the wide sleeves slid down in an instant, revealing the purple scars on her arms.

"Tsk tsk, look at this delicate arm. Miss Jiang has finally come to this day."

Jiang Li looked at Jiang Zhi with mockery in her eyes. It was true that the wicked would be punished by their own wickedness! Jiang Zhi had bullied the original body a lot because of her status as a legitimate daughter. She didn't expect that someone had already dealt with Jiang Zhi before she took action to avenge the original body! Jiang Li let go of Jiang Zhi's chin, took out the jade pendant left by the original body's mother from her arms, and came to Jiang Cangsong.

"Prefect Jiang keeps saying that he and I have a deep blood relationship, but I am very curious about one thing. It is said that even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. How could Prefect Jiang allow his servants to abuse his own flesh and blood?"

Jiang Cangsong's eyebrows were twitching, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.

He pretended to be calm and replied: "I don't understand what the queen is saying."

As soon as the name Jiang Feng came out, Jiang Cangsong became excited instantly.

"I know that Your Majesty is now a high and mighty virtuous concubine, and that she looks down on my lowly father. But even so, Your Majesty cannot speak nonsense just to distance herself from me!"

Jiang Cangsong was very emotional, and he could no longer pretend to be calm after Jiang Li said the name Jiang Feng.

That person said that as long as he kept the secret, he would give him financial support in the future. The monthly salary of the prefect was only the size of a fingernail. The reason why he could live a prosperous life was all thanks to the support of that person behind him! After seeing the emotional Jiang Cangsong, Jiang Li was more certain that there was something fishy going on! "Hush, put away your hypocritical mask. I want to hear the truth. If you dare to lie, I guarantee that your family of three will not be able to leave Jinhua Palace alive."

The more Jiang Cangsong wanted to hide something, the more Jiang Li wanted to know. In order to make Jiang Cangsong tell the secret of the jade pendant, Jiang Li directly used her power to oppress him.

"If you don't want to acknowledge me as your father, just say so! I will stay away from you as you wish. There's no need to beat around the bush and hurt my heart!"

Jiang Cangsong spoke righteously, insisting that Jiang Li did this because she didn't want to acknowledge him as her father.

Jiang Li pursed her lips and gently stroked the patterns on the jade pendant with her fingers.

"Little Dengzi, I want to hear the truth."

"yes!"

Little Dengzi understood instantly and was about to step forward to torture Jiang Cangsong when a dark figure appeared outside the hall.

"Who made Ali unhappy?"

After hearing this voice, the palace maids in Jinhua Palace all knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty!"

Your Majesty?!

The backs of Jiang Cangsong's family of three stiffened. They had never thought that they would have the honor of seeing the Holy Face in person in their lifetime! "Why are you here?"

After seeing Song Chengyin suddenly appear, Jiang Li walked towards him.

Song Chengyin took her waist and said, "I heard from the palace servants that someone has made you unhappy. I am worried and came to take a look."

After he finished speaking, he put his arm around Jiang Li and walked towards the main seat together. The black dress embroidered with gold passed in front of Jiang Cangsong, and the aura of dominating the world instantly spread in the hall. Jiang Cangsong swallowed unconsciously, and his legs became a little weak as he kneeled on the ground!

Jiang Zhi and her daughter were weighed down by this powerful aura and could not even stand up straight. They supported themselves on the ground with their hands, which were originally covering their faces, and their bodies were shaking continuously.

Song Chengyin and Jiang Li came to the main seat together. He had already heard from the palace servants about the identities of Jiang Cangsong and others before he came.

"Are you the ones who have been harshly criticizing and abusing Ali over the years?"

Song Chengyin spoke in a low voice, obviously knowing how these people treated Jiang Li when she was in Jiang Mansion.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I am innocent. I..."

"Ali wants to know, why don't you come here quickly!"
