After a long while, Lu Yunshuang swallowed her anger and turned her head, whining like a little girl, “Grandmother, I don’t want to accept him as my father. I grew up in the Grand Duke Mansion, and the only father I know is the Grand Duke and no one else. Besides, what if he’s lying? Please don’t be
deceived by him, Grandmother. At least, I’ve never heard my mother mention that my birth father is someone else.” When she said this, she glared at Zeng Lunan disdainfully.
Why did that blade not penetrate his heart?
It would be great if he had just died, then she would not have to waste her breath right now.
Who did this man think he was, coming out of nowhere and calling her his daughter? Did he think he was worthy of being her birth father?

did anything offensive, please have mercy on me and spare my life.”
Without giving her a single glance, Long Yang walked over to Lu Liangwei and sat down beside her.
Zhao Qian yelled at Matron Chen, “You assisted the Empress Dowager in committing all kinds of evil deeds, and now you’re begging for mercy? You’d better tell us everything about how the Empress Dowager used Madam Zheng, and if you try to hide anything, you’ll receive a punishment worse than
death.”
Meeting his vicious gaze, Matron Chen shuddered and nodded hastily, not daring to stall. “Yes, of course. I’ll definitely tell you everything I know.” She then tried her best to recall the events of that fateful year.
“After the late Emperor passed the throne to His Majesty, the Empress Dowager was very upset, but the Crown Prince was still young, so she endured it silently until she got her hands on Frostbite
