This year was destined to be anything but easy, as the Crown Prince made consecutive moves, putting Prince Yi in a passive position.
Besides that, there was another matter that could not be ignored. Because of the affair with Li Ji, the Li Family, which was already in a precarious situation, now faced a new turmoil. Second Lady Li was actually suing First Mrs. Li at this critical moment. It was like pouring a ladle of cold water into a hot oil pan, instantly causing an explosion.
Unlike the sociable First Mrs. Li, Second Lady Li had always kept a low profile, and since Li Ji's incident, the second branch of the Li family had become even more discreet. Even Li Qingyi, the niece who was greatly favored by Noble Consort Li, rarely left the estate to visit friends.
The sudden lawsuit brought forward by Second Lady Li was indeed a surprise to everyone.
