At first, the Fourth Prince didn't take it seriously, but the last sentence seemed to have struck a chord with him. His expression paused slightly, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.
Heyue noticed the change in his expression, tugged at his sleeve, and said in a coquettish tone, "Think about it, how can a mother bear to let her child suffer? Just like my mother, no matter how strict she is, she will never tolerate us suffering even the slightest grievance. If anyone bullies us, my mother will stand up for us. This is a mother's nature, and it has nothing to do with her own good or evil."
"You little girl, how do you know that everyone's mother is like yours?" The Fourth Prince was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered and regained his composure.
He Yue chuckled awkwardly, "I'm not entirely sure either. I just feel that we shouldn't condemn Li Gege so easily. I may dislike Li Gege, but I believe she still loves her child.

But giving her a lesson is one thing, I still don't want to wrong her because of this. It's still good for the eldest princess to stay with the fourth prince's wife. Haven't you noticed that the eldest princess is much more well-behaved than before?"
Heyue made no attempt to hide her malice towards the Li family, while simultaneously flattering the Fourth Prince and his wife.
