"What did you say?"

Mrs. Xu was so shocked that she even forgot to cry. Her tears were stuck in her eyes, her mouth opened wide, and her face turned pale in an instant.

Her lips were trembling. "You were only eight years old at the time, still children, and so cute. How could anyone attack you?"

"And the two maids who were responsible for taking care of you at the time said they saw you playfully and fall..."

"How could he have been pushed down?"

Mrs. Xu's eyes were red, and she held her daughter's shoulders tightly: "Nanxing, you were still young at that time, maybe you remembered it wrongly?"

Shen Nanxing sighed. Both she and her mother were too well protected by their families and had never seen the dangers of the world. So once they came into contact with people with bad intentions, they would be easily deceived and bullied without any ability to fight back.

In their previous life, they were persecuted and bullied to death...

Shen Nanxing stared at her mother without blinking or avoiding her gaze: "Mom, what are you afraid of?"

Xu's eyes met hers for only a moment before she looked away in panic: "No, no, how could that be possible?"

"Nanxing, think about it carefully. It must be because you guys were too playful and accidentally stepped on air, so..."

"Mom, I remember it clearly. It was a man in black who pushed my brother and me down. In my panic, I grabbed his face towel and he..."

"Nanxing!" Xu suddenly spoke, interrupting Shen Nanxing.

"Mom is tired, you should hurry back to Prince Jing's mansion! Otherwise Prince Jing will be waiting anxiously... Look how good Prince Jing is to you. On the second day of your wedding, he let you do whatever you want and sent you back to your parents' home..."

Shen Nanxing opened her mouth to say something, but Xu didn't give her a chance.

Xu stood up with the help of the table, her back to Shen Nanxing, one hand on her head, and shouted outside: "Xia He, help me to rest."

"Yes, ma'am!"

A little maid came in, bowed to Shen Nanxing, and then helped Xu into the inner room.

Shen Nanxing felt a little sorry when he saw that even though Xu was supported by a maid, her steps were still obviously disordered.

Never mind, give her some time.

Being forced to accept these bloody facts is really cruel for my mother who has been spoiled since childhood.

Shen Nanxing sighed softly, stood for a while, and finally walked away.

She just lied to her mother.

In fact, she didn't see with her own eyes who pushed her and her brother. At that time, she and her brother were chasing a little rabbit. The little rabbit ran very fast, and she ran very fast too. Her brother followed her, shouting at her to run slower and be careful not to fall.

The rabbit ran away, and they unknowingly came to the edge of the cliff.

Everything happened in a split second. She only felt her brother suddenly pounce on her. Before she could see anything clearly, the world spun around and she was sent flying...

Luckily, she was caught on a branch that extended from the cliff. Although she was covered in scratches, she was not fatally injured and was rescued. But her brother...

She slept for two whole days. When she woke up, she saw her mother sitting beside the bed, crying, and she had been changed into her brother's clothes...

The two maids who followed the brother and sister insisted that when they were chasing after them, they saw them playing from a distance and then they slipped and fell off the cliff.

So in her previous life, until her death, she never suspected that there was something fishy going on between her and her brother falling off the cliff.

But after her death, when Fu Jiuli was settling accounts with all those who had bullied her during her lifetime, the person who pushed her and her brother off the cliff surfaced.

It was Aunt Qiu’s cousin.

And her biological father was the mastermind behind this incident...

So later her father was found to be in cahoots with Prince Jing and was sentenced to death by slicing for treason. She followed Fu Jiuli to watch the execution and she only felt happy.

A man who attacks his wife and legitimate son and daughter for the sake of his concubine and her children deserves to be torn into pieces by five horses and cut into thousands of pieces!

After leaving Nanyang Marquis Mansion, Shen Nanxing went to Zuixinzhai, the most famous pastry shop on Chang'an Street. He ordered a variety of pastries and filled two large boxes.

She ordered two more pots of sweet wine, and then sat alone in the private room to feast on the food. She took two bites of pastries and took a big sip of sweet wine. After she finished half a box of pastries and a whole pot of sweet wine in one breath, she slowed down the speed of stuffing food into her mouth.

She lay on the couch with her belly bulging.

I let out a long breath of relief. It felt so refreshing!

You know, she hadn't eaten for decades, and she had no resistance to her favorite cakes and sweet wine. She couldn't control her hands and kept stuffing them into her mouth.

Originally, she didn't necessarily have such a strong obsession.

The main thing was that bastard Fu Jiuli, who would buy some cakes and sweet wine from Zuixinzhai every now and then and eat them in front of her tombstone!!!

It's been the same for decades, she can see it but can't eat it, which makes her very greedy!

Shen Nanxing didn't stop until he had stuffed a box of cakes and a pot of sweet wine into his stomach.

He glanced at the remaining box of cakes and the pot of sweet wine, swallowed, and looked away.

Comfort yourself.

Nanxing, be good. Zuixinzhai is still open, and you are still alive. You still have so much money that you haven’t had time to spend on Xie Tingyu. You will have many opportunities to eat Zuixinzhai pastries in the future!

After convincing herself, she stood up unsteadily, holding a box of cakes in one hand and a pot of sweet wine in the other, and walked towards the palace with three steps and three staggers.

You got it for free, you bastard. In your last life, you bought it but didn't give it to me. So in this life, I bought it for you. You really should thank me.

It was just a coincidence that Fu Jiuli, a man, liked these sweet and fragrant cakes and the unique taste of sweet wine just like her.

Leaving the palace.

A man in black clothes and black hair sat at the stone table. He held a crystal-clear black chess piece in his slender, cold white hand and placed it casually.

The young man in green brocade clothes sitting across from him suddenly had a frown on his face, his face wrinkled into a bun: "I was almost winning, how come in the blink of an eye, I lost again..."

The man in black stretched out his fingers and tapped a few places on the chessboard, then fell silent.

As the young man watched, his eyes suddenly lit up, his admiration evident in his words: "King Li, you are so amazing!"

The man in black, however, remained expressionless: "It's because your Highness's chess skills are too poor."

The young man immediately pouted, his face full of dissatisfaction. "No way! The Go tutor in the palace said I'm extremely talented!"

Seeing that the man still had an indifferent look, the young man rolled his eyes and suppressed a wicked smile: "Prince Li, I heard at the morning court today that Shen Nanxing said she likes you and wants to marry you. What is going on?"
