Jiang Ning knew all along that Li Hongyuan favored Lingzi more and slightly sneered, "Indeed, parents' hearts always play favorites. In the future, don't complain about your Emperor Father. You cannot even treat your own children equally."
"Have I ever complained?" Li Hongyuan sighed lightly, "If the world were fair, how could some be born into nobility whilst others are beggars?"
Jiang Ning retorted, "What's that? Using big words to win an argument? You can't choose your birth, but you can't be forced to love your children."
Li Hongyuan replied, "You're just sitting there criticizing, but you're also the recipient of your parents' favoritism. Why criticize others?"
The couple, Jiang Ruobai and Lin Zizi, never hid their favoritism towards their daughter.
Jiang Yan, who lives in the back house, might not understand why her husband, who is also her father's son-in-law, is heading back to the battlefield, while the Crown Prince can stay quietly in the Imperial Palace.
