Upon seeing Su Zhi who was still unrecovered on the bed, A Jin's eyes immediately turned red. Crying, she rushed over and hugged her. "Mother!"

As soon as she said that, she started sobbing, "I'm sorry, A Jin shouldn't have been so fierce towards you."

After throwing a tantrum at Su Zhi, A Jin's heart was also in pain.

Today, when he went to the academy elder's room, he was unable to concentrate on listening to the lecture.

"It's alright, mother wants to apologize to your sister as well."

Xiao Qian looked at his mother with a gentle expression as he silently walked out of the room.

His mother was waiting outside. When she saw him come out, she approached him hesitantly. She looked like she wanted to say something, but she hesitated.

"General …"

Xiao Qian nodded, gesturing for her to walk out of the courtyard and into a secluded area.

"What does Mother Ding want to ask?"

"General, I am not a talkative person, but I do have something I need to tell you."

He did not say anything. With his back facing Mrs Ding, he gazed at the bright moon in the sky. He seemed to have guessed what the old servant was going to ask.

"Sister Lan is not the Madame's biological daughter, this servant just found out about this matter. But according to this servant's guess, Jin'er probably isn't the Madame either."

Xiao Qian didn't look back as he stared at the crescent moon. After a while, he slowly replied, "I know."

Mother Ding was shocked. "You knew?"

"Yes, I know."

That letter contained general information about Su Zhi before she had left for An Ning village. Thinking about how the crown prince had treated her and how his business had been blocked, he had even guessed Su Zhi's true identity.

The acrimonious events of the past would be uncontrollably brought up again.

Although he hadn't been in the Imperial City for the past few days, he wasn't completely unaware of everything.

The people of Zhao family should have recognized her and tried to kill her.

If she really was the one who escaped from the sea of flames six years ago, then that child should be the descendant of Xuan Fei.

In the Great Wei, there was only one prince who managed to avoid the Empress's hands and grow up.

Don't bring up this matter in front of Ah Zhi. She forgot a lot of things from before and told me that she can't remember her past. Don't ask the one beside you, just serve her wholeheartedly.

Mother Ding nodded, but could not set her worries at rest.

As a result, Su Zhi and A Jin's life had become a mystery.

What if another person came to ask for a child? She sighed, not knowing what to say. After bowing, she quietly left.

Because Xiao Qian had returned to the Imperial City today, he couldn't stay for too long.

Su Zhi was also worried that not returning to report at the first possible moment would make the emperor unhappy. After having dinner, she urged the man to leave.

Su Zhi didn't have enough time to ask about the situation regarding the arrest of the traitors, and she didn't know what the actual situation was.

Only on the second day, news came from the imperial court saying that the civil and military faction had started a dispute.

The leader of the Zhao Family, a group of civil servants, scolded Xiao Qian for neglecting his duty and failing to capture the traitor alive. The group of generals were indignant and thought that the civil officials had gone too far.

In short, it was from the morning assembly until the end.

When Su Zhi heard the commotion, she became nervous. It just so happened that another uninvited guest came to Spring Leaf Lane. At first, she didn't want to let her see him and wanted to kick him out immediately. But the woman wouldn't leave. She cried at the door.

"Madam, let me see the child."

Hearing this voice, her head felt like it was about to explode. If not for her timely arrival yesterday, this foolish woman would have already carried her child and given birth to him.

Su Zhi walked out of the door and coldly looked at Madame Zhou. "You still have the face to come back?" You promised me you'd treat the child well. Did you do that? "

Madame Zhou knelt and crawled forward, begging: "Madam, I was just unable to think! Forgive me once. "

"To tell you the truth, I really don't feel comfortable leaving the child in your care. Other than giving birth to her, you can't help her in any way. With your personality, I have every reason to believe that if you don't have a good time, you will vent your anger on her. So, even if you end up dying in front of me, I won't hand my child over to you. "

Zhou Yang had no face to be ashamed of. She had no place to hide after being abandoned by Hugh. For a moment, she felt disheartened and resentful.

Now that he was awake, he felt extremely regretful.

She used her memories to find this courtyard and try to persuade Su Zhi to hand over her child, but it was already impossible.

"Go, you are still a pitiful person. I'll give you a silver, and you can marry a good man with it, or you can live alone, but I don't want you to come back to see her again, and I won't stop you, but I can't raise her. "

Su Zhi asked her mother to take out a large amount of silver and give it to the Zhou family. No matter what, she would not let her have her child.

Madame Zhou took the silver, her eyes filled with tears. "Alright, thank you Madam. Consider this silver as I've borrowed it. I'll definitely return it to you in the future." The mother of the child is me, after all, and I'll come back to her when I've earned some money. "

After successfully sending the woman away, Su Zhi had originally wanted to be safe.

Who knew that the front leg sent away the difficult problem, the back foot welcomed the god of plague.

Lu Huan, who had disappeared for several days, came uninvited. He took advantage of the time when his mother was closing the door to run in like a wisp of smoke.

"Your Highness!"

She was the first to see him, and when she closed the door, she thought he had climbed over the wall.

Mother Ding was the most protective of them all. Lu Huan had been here a few times, and had a bad reputation, so she had also guessed that Su Zhi was the one who had ill intentions towards her. She immediately said with a cold face, "Your Highness, as a noble member of the Royal Family, you should know what is proper and upright.

Lu Huan Zhi was no longer sick and weak like when they parted ways. His sickness had returned to his previous cynicism.

"What do you mean, 'this prince' ran in openly from the front."

Su Zhi had long since heard the commotion in the courtyard. When she went out to take a look, she was met with Lu Huan's bottle of plague god's rebuttal for her mother, and then with a flirtatious glance at Bi Yue.

"Are you feeling better?"

Lu Huan Zhi waved his fan and laughed in confusion, "I've been fine for a long time. How can a small bit of chilliness harm this prince?"

"That's good."

"Heh, I told you that the little lady still cares about me."

Ignoring the ugly look on his mother's face, he walked into the house. Seeing the girl squatting down on the ground and teasing the rabbit, he became very playful.

"Long time no see."

The small bean bag was currently feeding the rabbit with half of the radish. The rabbit that was still eating was suddenly picked up by someone. Its four short legs were kicking non-stop, baring its teeth as it stared at the culprit.

"Let go of the rabbit!" Little Dou Bao reached out to grab the rabbit. Lu Huan's action became even more extreme. Seeing the little girl's flushed face, she forced a big smile.

Su Zhi rolled her eyes at the naughty man, then went forward to save the little rabbit.

"What does Your Highness want to do this time?" "If you have something to eat, you don't plan to prepare any food or wine today. You can come back another day."

However, Lu Huan Zhi wasn't in a hurry to leave. His eyes dimmed a little as he looked at the little girl thoughtfully, "My wife, how come I didn't see that little brat A Jin?"

"A Jin went to school. She will be back for a while."

"Oh, really?"

He leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and fanned himself.

"When was the child born? I, your son, am in a good mood today. I plan to give each of my children a birthday present. "

When she mentioned A Jin's birthday, Su Ranzhi was stunned.

She had always been a half-way mother and had raised her two children with all her might, but she knew nothing about the matter of giving birth to a child. He had thought about it a few times, but didn't know how to understand it, so he gave up.

Since the child was still young and he wasn't sure himself, who could she ask?

He could only feel that the child had grown taller. It seemed that he would soon be a year old.

He saw that she was silent.

Lu Huan Zhi's eyes narrowed, and a carefree smile quickly covered the darkness in his eyes.

He didn't want to leave. No matter how much his mother scolded him, he didn't budge. Only when A Jin was brought back by Dan Xue did he turn his attention to the child.

Su Zhi felt that Lu Huan Zhi was a little different today. She seemed to be very concerned about A Jin's movements.

Even though the two of them were pinching each other, the look in his eyes was different from the one in front of him. There was a complicated look in his eyes that Su Zhi could not see through.

"Mother, I don't want to see him."
