Li Qingyi tightened her grip on the handkerchief in her hand.

Second Lady Li then said, "Father is an Elder of Three Dynasties, having served the court with loyalty all his life. Even if Big Brother did act with a bit of self-interest, Your Majesty won't disregard so many years of loyalty. Besides, there are Noble Consort and Prince Xiang supporting us."

Second Mr. Li left the house in a hurry without even taking a sip of his tea.

Second Lady Li looked at her daughter, "You should go back too. You don't need to worry about these things. Just focus on preparing for your marriage."

Li Qingyi managed a smile and left, but on the way back, she felt as if each step weighed a thousand pounds.
