At night, after the lights in Yajunxuan went out, Yuer curled up in Shen Mi's arms and fell asleep.

Shen Mi lowered her eyes and looked at him. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, she reached out and put his hair behind his ears.

After the little guy fell asleep, he started mumbling in his sleep. His cute appearance was really endearing.

Shen Mi gently stroked his cheek, and recalled the scenes in the East Palace with Yu'er in her previous life.

In this life, it is truly a blessing from God that Yu'er can come back to my side.

The next day.

Siqin and Ziying came in, dressed Yuer and washed him, and also got hot water for Shen Mi to wash.

After Shen Mi washed up and ate something with Yu'er, Yu'er was taken out to play by Siqin and Ziying.

Yu'er is cute and very obedient. Ziying and Siqin like Yu'er very much.

After Shen Mi finished her meal, the nanny from the Ji family took her to the Ji family's study.

Prime Minister Ji’s study is very spacious.

Pei Rou was pouring tea at the tea table by the window. When she saw Shen Mi come in, a smile spread across her face.

"Mi'er, you're here."

Shen Mi walked in slowly, holding up her skirt.

"Aunt, does Mi'er have something urgent to do now?"

Pei Rou said: "Please sit down first. Auntie has something to tell you."

Shen Mi nodded and slowly sat down at the tea table.

After Shen Mi sat down, Pei Rou also sat down.

She smiled and said, "From now on, when you are in the Ji Mansion, your aunt can no longer call you Mi'er."

"If this gets to the ears of Emperor Li and the Queen, it might be dangerous."

"How about I give you a name, Ji Yin?"

"From now on, Auntie will call you Yin'er."

"Yin'er?"

Shen Mi smiled and said, "I like all the names my aunt gave me. They sound nice."

Pei Rou was relieved to see Shen Mi being well-behaved and sensible.

"Do you know what happened to your mother back then?"

Shen Mi nodded: "I know, my uncle Jiang Xuan told me."

Pei Rou held the teacup, her eyes suddenly reddened.

"The entire Pei family was wiped out, and I was the only one who survived."

"In the past twenty years, no one has understood this feeling."

"Eighty people in the Pei family died. Every time I close my eyes, the image of my family members being hung on the city wall comes to my mind."

She looked at Shen Mi: "Mi'er, it's a good thing you're alive."

"The Pei family, there are not only Chu'er and I, but also you, and you are still alive."

Shen Mi took a deep breath, stood up from the chair, and walked in front of Pei Rou.

"Aunt, don't be sad."

"Since I agreed to come to the Ji family, I want to see what kind of results those people get in the end."

"My grandfather's good name must be cleared, and my mother's revenge must be avenged."

Pei Wan nodded, and seeing Shen Mi's determined eyes, she suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.

She said: "Your father, Prince Changling, is still alive and will probably meet you soon."

"The day after tomorrow, that dog emperor said he would host a banquet for the women of the noble families in Kyoto. I'm afraid he knows that you and Chu'er are back, and he's here for you."

"When you arrive, remember to wear a veil and don't reveal your identity."

"This Lidi is lustful. If you are targeted by him, you will definitely get into trouble."

Shen Mi was silent for a moment, then asked, "Aunt, can I not go the day after tomorrow?"

Pei Rou took a deep breath: "Emperor Li and the Queen sent someone to send an invitation, and the invitation specifically emphasized that Huai Chu and you should go. I'm afraid it's for you."

"However, Yu'er was not mentioned in the letter. I guess the dog emperor and queen don't know about Yu'er's stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Don't worry, Auntie will have someone conceal his identity and will never let Yu'er reveal it."

Shen Mi nodded: "It's my aunt."

"Hiding is not a long-term solution. It is better to face it openly."

"Revenge when revenge is needed, and justice when injustice is needed."

Shen Mi lowered her eyes, as if recalling what happened three years ago.

Now Hongluan is still replacing Luo Yihuan in the Liguo Palace, so she naturally has to go to the palace to meet Hongluan.

It would also be helpful to get some information and secrets about the royal family of Liguo.

She looked at Pei Rou: "Don't worry, Auntie, Mi'er Ding'an will do what you say."

"I will put on my veil the day after tomorrow."

"Since Emperor Li and Empress are coming for me, I can't be cowardly and implicate the Ji family."

Pei Rou said: "Yes."

"But don't worry, your uncle and I will accompany you to the palace the day after tomorrow, and we will find a way to protect you."

"it is good."

After Shen Mi accompanied Pei Rou to drink a few cups of hot tea, she left the study and walked towards her own yard.

Just then I saw Yu Zian running over in a hurry.

"Junior sister, you are here."

"I'm looking for you."

Shen Mi frowned: "Is it about those Beili captives?"

Yu Zian nodded: "There are eight people in total, and five of them have committed suicide out of shame and anger."

"Three others were hacked and left in a mass grave to die."

"He was rescued by our secret guards, and my father had someone place him in Shui Mo Zhai."

Shen Mi asked: "Uncle, do you know why I saved people?"

Yu Zian nodded: "I told my father that there is a woman among them who is a Beili strategist and can be used by us."

"However, although this Beili woman survived, she refused to eat or drink and had no desire to live."

"So I came to ask you, what can I do?"

Shen Mi stared at him for a moment: "Brother, take me to Shui Mo Zhai. I want to see her in person."

"it is good."

Shen Mi put on a veil, and went out from the west door with Yu Zian, got on a carriage, and headed straight for Shui Mo Zhai.

After a while, we arrived at Shui Mo Zhai.

After Shen Mi and Yu Zian got off the carriage, they were led to the inner courtyard by a neatly dressed maid.

In the chic room, a woman who was about 20 or 30 years old was curled up in the corner, shivering.

The other two were seriously injured and lying in bed, unable to move.

Led by the maid, Shen Mi and Yu Zian came to the door of the wing room.

When the woman in the inner room heard the footsteps, her pupils shrank slightly and her face was filled with fear.

It has been three years since the Beili Kingdom was destroyed. During these three years, all the Beili royal family, from the emperor and princesses to the officials in the Beili court, have become captives.

Most of them were tortured to death by Emperor Li, and the royal princesses were thrown into the Li Kingdom’s military camp and were humiliated at will by the soldiers.

There were nearly a thousand people in total, but only a few survived during these three years.

Among them was a princess of the Beili royal family, who was extremely beautiful. It was said that she was taken into the harem by Emperor Li, but her fate was not good.

Not only does he have no position and is bullied by others, but he is also handed over to eunuchs by the cruel and perverted Emperor Li to be played with. Now it is unknown whether he is alive or dead.

As the door creaked open, the woman huddled in the corner suddenly screamed, and then a veiled woman came in from outside.

Next to her was a handsome young man.

Shen Mi frowned and looked at Lin Zhimeng who was huddled in the corner. Just as she was about to take a step forward, Lin Zhimeng was so frightened that her whole body trembled.

"Don't kill me, don't drink my blood, please."

"Please, don't drink our blood."

"Do not kill me……."

Shen Mi slowly squatted down, staring at her closely.

"Don't be afraid. No one will drink your blood here."
