An Yingcheng only found out that Aunt Li had been ordered to punish her after her birthday. Hearing the news, his drunk eyes immediately turned bright, and the alcohol in his body seemed to have disappeared in a moment.

"What's going on?"

His face became gloomy, and as he asked, he walked towards the courtyard of Aunt Li with big steps.

The servant who came to report the news did not dare to hide it and told the madame what had happened on her birthday in detail.

The more An Yingcheng listened, the darker his face became.

He reached out his hand to have the servant retreat, then he walked into the courtyard of Aunt Li himself.

"Daddy is here!"

An Lingyi had just seen the servant feed the medicine to the Aunt Li, but when she saw An Yingcheng enter, a look of joy crossed her face.

Her cute and adorable appearance, when reflected in An Yingcheng's eyes, made An Yingcheng's heart ache even more for the mother and daughter pair.

"How is your aunt?" He looked at the pale face on the bed and frowned.

An Lingyi was about to speak, but Aunt Li shot her a glance, and said weakly: "My prince, I am innocent!"

"Yi Er prepared a congratulatory gift for the old lady, but someone did something to it. The old lady thought that Yi Er was unhappy with her and purposely looked for her for bad luck, but how did Yi Er do such a thing?" She reached out her hand to grab An Yingcheng's sleeve, and her eyes were filled with deep emotion, "Your Highness, you must investigate this matter clearly, you can't let Yi Er have such a malicious reputation on her back!"

An Yingcheng lightly patted her shoulder, but did not blindly believe her words, "I already heard about this matter, since Yi Er did something wrong, I shall let her apologize to mother.

Aunt Li stopped crying, her pale face still had crystal teardrops on it. She raised her head, with an expression of disbelief, "My prince, could it be that even you think that it was Yi Er who did this?"

An Yingcheng had believed Aunt Li's words the last time, causing the old man to feel extremely depressed.

Now that Aunt Li had said such words, An Yingcheng only thought that it was a good excuse.

Just as the Countess had said, the Aunt Li controlled more than half of the Duke Palaces. How could anyone else take over the wedding gift from An Lingyi? The only person who could do such a thing was An Lingyi herself.

An Lingyi's face immediately changed, she did not understand, why did her father, who loved and doted on her in the past, not believe her?

"Daddy!" She cried out, her charming face no longer as bright as before, and stared straight at An Yingcheng, "This matter has been set up by someone, I had no intention of giving that Yu Guanyin to Grandmother!"

"How did that Yu Guanyin come before the madame?" An Yingcheng did not move, and instead asked a question in an indifferent tone, causing An Lingyi to be speechless.

"It must be that Qing Er. She is a servant whom Yi Er has just promoted, and has been ordered by who to frame Yi Er."

There were only a few people in the Palace who were not on good terms with Aunt Li An Lingyi.

Although Aunt Li did not say it out loud, she had already pointed her spear at An Lingge and Aunt Wei.

However, the method of the backyard had gone smoothly the first time, but it didn't mean that it would work the second time.

Qing Er had always been a servant in An Lingyi's courtyard. It was An Lingyi's decision to drag her up, so how could an outsider hold a blade and place it on An Lingyi's neck, forcing her to bring Qing Er to her side to serve him?

With that thought, An Yingcheng's expression turned cold, the pain in his eyes towards the Aunt Li disappeared, "If you're injured, you should take care of yourself, don't think about all this nonsense."

The mother and daughter pair had been wronged, humiliated in front of everyone, and ordered by the madame to follow family rules. Now, they were only going to capture the person behind the scenes. How could it be considered a mess!

Aunt Li wanted to say something, but An Yingcheng pried her hand away, stood up, and walked out without looking back.

"Your highness, your highness!"

She quickly shouted twice, but An Yingcheng did not even stop as if he could not hear her.

"Daddy, you've gone too far." "Father doted on me the most in the past, but he didn't believe me today. It was all that bitch An Lingge's fault, otherwise, why would Father treat me like this, how would he ignore you, Aunt?"

The Aunt Li's gaze kept changing. She was half-lying on the bed, and her back was covered in flames. The pain twisted her face, but it was not as painful as the pain in her heart.

"Alright, I thought that bitch An Lingge was just playing a trick on us, to make us lose face in front of the old lady. The Aunt Li was so angry that she started laughing, but no matter how she looked at her smile, it was just a sinister and terrifying smile, "Other people might take it step by step, but An Lingge is truly impressive.

She had originally thought that she already valued An Lingge's intelligence enough, but today's matter was like a warning bell, allowing her to know that this person was not someone she could underestimate. Although An Lingge was only fifteen years old, her wisdom neared the level of a demon. When facing An Lingge, he couldn't afford to be negligent in the slightest.

An Lingyi gritted her teeth as her charming face revealed a dark fierceness similar to that of the Aunt Li, "Aunt, are we really going to suffer this loss? An Lingge framed us like this, I am not willing to let this go! "

This matter naturally could not be so simple.

Aunt Li held onto the brocade blanket tightly, a cold smile plastered on her face, "Isn't she, An Lingge, resourceful? I didn't even let her have the chance to scheme."

After being whipped a dozen times, and under the suspicion of the Duke, she was forced to return all her new and old grudges to An Lingge one by one!

An Lingge, who had been fiercely cursed by the Aunt Li, was currently seated within the Parasol House, with a map of public opinion in front of him.

She reached out her hand and drew a few curved lines. There was a bit of solemnity on her face, as if she was calculating something.

Bi Zhu brought some tea over, and just as she was about to bring it to her, she reached out her hand and whispered in her ear, "Miss, you're looking to see where Hereditary Prince Mu is, don't disturb her."

Ever since he saw her young miss and Hereditary Prince Mu eating together, he knew that the relationship between Mu Junhan and Mu Junhan was not as simple as it seemed.
