Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

"Grandmother!" Ying Hengzhi rushed into Old Liu's arms.

The grandfather and grandson embraced and wept bitterly before sitting down together.

"Zhi'er, how well does the Second Prince treat you?" Old Madam Liu asked.

Upon hearing this, Ying Hengzhi's expression immediately darkened.

Old Mrs. Liu's expression changed: "He treats you badly?"

"On the day I first entered the manor, he was somewhat displeased, perhaps because he saw that I was poor..."

Ying Hengzhi said sadly.

Old Liu's face darkened with anger.

Ying Hengzhi continued, "But Zhi'er had a dream in which a golden phoenix came looking for Zhi'er and carried Zhi'er to Jade Plate Mountain."

Zhi'er didn't know what was on Jade Plate Mountain; she was just talking in her sleep when the Second Prince overheard her, and then he took his granddaughter with him to Jade Plate Mountain.

"Such a thing is true?"

Old Mrs. Liu's eyes widened in shock as she stood up.

"Grandmother, what's wrong?" Ying Hengzhi asked, looking completely bewildered.

"My silly granddaughter!" Old Mrs. Liu suddenly became excited.

"Zhi'er, do you know what the Golden Phoenix symbolizes? The destiny of the Golden Phoenix is ​​immeasurably noble; only... the Empress is worthy of being called the Golden Phoenix!"

Old Liu lowered her voice.

Her gaze toward Ying Hengzhi was intense. "I knew it. My Zhi'er is a person of great fortune."

Hmph, so what if Shangguan Tang and Ying Yufu get their way and temporarily receive the title of princess?

In the future, won't they have to kneel on the ground begging for mercy in front of me, Zhi'er?

Ying Hengzhi also looked at Old Liu with a smile.

Old Liu suddenly regained her energy and walked outside with Ying Hengzhi in her arms.

"Zhi'er, such good news must be told to your father and mother."

Ying Hengzhi then took the initiative to help Old Liu Shi and they walked outside together.

Ge Da and Du Zhan were guarding outside Ying Nanyao's door.

Upon seeing them approach, they both bowed.

"Has the Lord woken up?" Old Lady Liu asked.

Du Zhan said, "Reporting to the old lady, I just went in and checked. The Marquis has not woken up and has been unconscious, but the Earl's breathing has stabilized."

Although injured, his life is not in danger.

"That's good, that's good." Old Mrs. Liu said, and then pushed open the door and entered.

"Why isn't Madam here?" The room was empty and quiet. It was expected that Liu Xueyan would stay by Ying Nanyao's side, but unexpectedly, she was not there.

This time it was Ge Dadao who said, "Madam said she wasn't feeling well and went home to rest."

Old Mrs. Liu was even more worried. "That's right, Yan'er is still pregnant and shouldn't be overworked."

She looked at Ge Da and Du Zhan, "You two stay here and keep watch."

The two should be.

Old Madam Liu sat down by Ying Nanyao's bedside, her tone gratified, "Nanyao, you are a blessed person. Our Zhi'er is destined for greatness; you will be the emperor's father-in-law in the future. You must never let anything happen to you."

That damned Ying Yufu, treating you, her own father, like that, she'll definitely get her comeuppance.

Ying Hengzhi also said, "Father, you must take good care of yourself. I miss you all very much while I'm at the Second Prince's residence."

The incident on Jade Plate Mountain was all Zhi'er's fault. Zhi'er dreamt that a golden phoenix carried her onto the jade plate, and she inadvertently spoke in her sleep, which was overheard by the Second Prince. Zhi'er never imagined that there was such a huge secret on Jade Plate Mountain.

If Zhi'er had known earlier, she would have told her father and grandmother.

As Ying Hengzhi spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Zhi'er, don't cry. It's not your fault. It's all your fate."

It's just hateful that in the end, Ying Yufu was the one who received the reward and was even made a princess.

She's clearly using our Zhi'er to climb up the social ladder.

The grandmother and granddaughter chattered on and on to Ying Nanyao. Whether Ying Nanyao was disturbed or actually heard what they were saying, he slowly woke up.

"Oh dear, my son is awake! My son is awake!"

Old Mrs. Liu said excitedly.

"water……"

"Quick, water!" Old Lady Liu said to the servants as she turned around.

Du Zhan walked over with a cup of tea in his hand.

Ying Nanyao drank it all in one gulp.

He paused for a moment, then looked at Ying Hengzhi, "I heard everything you just said, Zhi'er, your father doesn't blame you."

"I have no resentment if you blame me; it's good that you're awake."

Ying Hengzhi said happily.

Ying Nanyao looked at her and sighed softly.

This is his beloved daughter, a child born to his loved one. How could he not love her?

Speaking of loved ones...

A fierce killing intent suddenly gathered in Ying Nanyao's eyes.

He said, "Kill those two beasts for me."

Without the influence of the love potion, the first thing Ying Nanyao did after waking up was to avenge himself.

Those two wild boars are definitely going to die.

He wanted to eat the flesh and blood of those two beasts and burn their hides to ashes to vent his hatred.

Neither Old Lady Liu nor Ying Hengzhi were surprised by his reaction, and naturally they did not stop him.

Ying Hengzhi said, "Father, in my opinion, we should kill those two beasts and send them to my second sister so that she will learn her lesson."

"Zhi'er is right. That little bitch needs to be taught a lesson so she'll know what's what."

"Alright, then cut off the heads of those two beasts and send them to that rebellious daughter Ying Yufu while they're still fresh. Remember, she must see it with her own eyes!"

Ying Hengzhi smiled slightly.

This must have been enough to scare Ying Yufu half to death or make her feel disgusted.

As night deepened, Ying Yufu and Ying Yutan slept together.

She rested her hand on her forehead, carefully examining the contours of Tan'er's eyebrows and eyes.

Yes, it does resemble Kong somewhat.

[Host, it's not just somewhat similar, it's extremely similar. It's just that a person's experiences can change their appearance, which is why you didn't realize it at the time.]

"Xiao Dian, hearing you say that makes me feel even more sorry for that little guy."

She exchanged a few words with Xiao Dian, then continued to carefully observe Tan'er.

Tan'er closed her eyes tightly and murmured, "Go to sleep quickly, go to sleep quickly, Tan'er wants to ask her little brother where he is in her dreams."

Ying Yufu couldn't help but smile, blew out the candle, and the room immediately fell silent.

Huangjue Temple was quite cold in early winter, but fortunately Ying Yufu and the others had brought a lot of charcoal with them when they went up the mountain, so the room was warm and cozy.

It was a quiet night, but Ying Yufu, who was almost asleep, suddenly felt a slight tremor in the tip of her ear.

Having consumed the Cleansing Snow Lotus, her five senses were heightened. Just then, she heard extremely faint footsteps coming from next door.

If it weren't for her exceptionally sharp hearing, she probably wouldn't have heard it at all.

The footsteps sounded like there were four people, not just one.

Three of them had very steady breathing, clearly indicating they were trained practitioners, and one of them was even a master among masters.

The other aura was relatively ordinary, suggesting that the person was not a martial arts practitioner.

The room next door is my mother's room. These people are approaching so discreetly, they clearly have ill intentions.

Ying Yufu lay still, wanting to see what those people were up to.

"Brother, will Shangguan Tang wake up?" In the silence, someone spoke in a low voice.

"No, it's the finest half-death incense from the Southern Barbarians. Smelling it makes you feel half-dead and unable to wake up."

"Excellent! Tomorrow, when everyone sees Shangguan Tang sleeping with ten monks, let's see if she can still retain the title of 'Lady of Imperial Grace'!"
