"Hehe... you don’t need to give me such a big label. Even though the Li Family has a huge family business, I, Yang Aoshuang, have never intervened since that year. Also, if you and your good daughter want to die, then go ahead, but don’t drag my son along."

After speaking, she looked at Eldest Young Master Li and the others, "I’m telling you all, you are not to interfere in this matter, nor listen to Li Mengru and your father’s words. Li Luru... is your sister, your own sister. If the future Princess Consort An is to be a girl from the Li Family, it will definitely be her. I won’t let anyone who wants to take her place get away with it."

"If anyone tries to take it, I’ll fight them tooth and nail. If you don’t believe it, let’s see how it plays out."

After speaking, she didn’t look at the expressions of the people in the room and left with Nanny Yang.

Third Young Master Li, always quick-witted, snapped out of it after his mother delivered that shock. "Dad, I think Mom has a point. Prince An isn’t a fool; what he takes a fancy to is Leru, not our Li Family. If he was interested in the Li Family, you could pick either Leru or Mengru to marry off. But what he fancies is the person, not a puppet for you to manipulate. I disagree with this and I won’t participate."

With that, he also walked out.

Eldest Young Master Li stood up following this, "Dad, Third is right. What he takes a fancy to isn’t the family background, but the person. Besides, if he was truly interested in family background, why would he choose our Li Family? I think Leru is the more reliable choice."

After speaking, he left with his wife.

As for Second Young Master Li, he planned to sit for a while, but his wife was unwilling and pulled him up. His wife said, "Dad, technically, this isn’t for me, as a daughter-in-law, to say. But since you’ve let me in on this matter, I have to say something. Whether Third Sister is your biological child or not, she was raised in our family, and the ties from growing up together still exist. Furthermore, everyone has seen what kind of person Third Sister is. No matter what happens in the future, just for the sake of upbringing, she won’t disregard us."

"On the other hand, Second Sister doesn’t have a good nature." With that, she gave a mocking glance at the other party and continued, "Even scheming against her own sister whom she grew up with shows her temperament and methods. I dare not associate with someone like her. Moreover, Prince An’s Mansion is bound to have strict rules and high status, and they must have high expectations of the main wife. If not chosen properly, wouldn’t that bring disaster to the Ye Family? If Second Sister’s temperament truly goes to the Ye Family, wouldn’t they completely despise us because of her?"

After speaking, she pulled Second Young Master Li away.

As for the other concubines, they kept out of it as it was not their concern. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

They came just to watch the drama, anyway, regardless of who wins, there’s no benefit to them, so there’s no need to offend anyone for others.

"Old Master, we take our leave too."

"..."

The hall was left with just Li Shan and Concubine Sun with her daughter.

"Old Master, what are we going to do?" Concubine Sun said, wiping her tears, "The Madam doesn’t even regard you. She even kicked Mengru in your presence. My child, did she kick you hard? I’ll call for a doctor right away."

Of course, it hurt; anyone would feel pain if kicked in the chest.

But that’s not the main issue right now.

Li Mengru stood up, "Dad, what do we do now? Are you really going to let Li Luru get married over there? I’m your real daughter. You can’t just watch a wild child overshadow me for the rest of my life, can you? Before, we didn’t know these things, she lived better, so I didn’t voice it. But now?"
