The woman who walked in had a relatively young face, but she exuded an air of authority.

She was extremely luxurious from head to toe, and her wealth did not overshadow her at all; rather, it complemented her temperament perfectly.

For a moment, only the eight words "a body of gold and jade, incomparably precious" came to mind.

This made Su Yinyin think that this woman must be A Yuan's wife.

After all, A Yuan is of a certain age, while the woman is young.

This is a huge misunderstanding. The prince hadn't even had a chance to explain.

The young noblewoman grabbed Su Yinyin, scrutinizing her closely, and kept saying, "She's absolutely gorgeous. Her demeanor and composure are perfect for being the matriarch of the household."

The prince was consumed by jealousy when he saw his mother, Consort Su Yinyin, had a bad luck with her hand.

He pulled Su Yinyin behind him and said, "Speak properly and don't touch me."

The Empress Dowager was not angry; in fact, she was pleased to see this. It proved that her son could still be saved.

"Mother, son, you two?" Su Yinyin turned to look at Ayin, asking uncertainly, "Aren't you two going to introduce yourselves?"

"I am his mother, and he is my son." The Dowager Consort looked at Su Yinyin with a smile, becoming more and more satisfied with her.

"Sister, you must be joking! You, capable of giving birth to such a large, healthy child?"

It wasn't that Su Yinyin didn't believe it; it was true, the woman in front of her looked too young.

When someone compliments her on her youth, any woman would be overjoyed. "Hahaha, I am indeed his mother."

"Mother... who are you?" Su Yinyin searched her mind for information.

The emperor's concubine, son, which son is she?

That doesn't make sense either. The emperor couldn't have a son that big. Could it be...?

"Ah Yuan, didn't you tell this girl your identity?"

"There's no time right now." It wasn't that the prince hadn't thought about telling Su Yinyin, but the two of them met at different times, and they were always cuddling in bed together.

The Imperial Noble Consort was unaware of how the two usually interacted, and assumed that her son was afraid that her high status might frighten the young lady.

But what woman in this world doesn't want to marry into a higher social class? To be able to marry into the royal family is a blessing that takes countless lifetimes to attain, especially when one's own son is so outstanding.

She lost her freedom because of her status when she married into the royal family.

After realizing what was happening, the Imperial Noble Consort smiled and sat down in the main seat, introducing herself formally, "I am the Imperial Noble Consort, and he is my son."

"Yes, I am Prince Zhou Yuan, the Regent of the Great Zhou Kingdom."

He spoke while watching Su Yinyin's reaction.

Su Yinyin's reaction was that she had offended some kind of man, a man second only to the emperor.

Such a man can marry one principal wife, several secondary wives, and countless concubines.

Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps. But with a father like that, his son will surely achieve great things in the future.

“You are the Regent, Zhou Yuan, so you must be very wealthy and not short of money.”

"All my money is yours. From now on, I'll rely on A-Yin to support me." The prince immediately declared upon hearing the mention of money. Although they hadn't known each other for long, he had already figured out a bit of Su Yinyin's temperament.

"No problem, no problem." Su Yinyin said with a faint smile.

The prince thought that Su Yinyin was happy because of his status.

Su Yinyin was thinking that since her son had a powerful father who wasn't afraid of him being bullied, should she travel around the Three Kingdoms ahead of time?

"Six years ago, I was indeed pregnant and gave birth to my son. I wonder if the Imperial Noble Consort and the Prince would like to acknowledge my son?"

Su Yinyin spoke directly, without beating around the bush. We waited quietly.

The two were shocked and happy upon hearing this, but gradually their hearts were filled with heartache. They felt sorry for Su Yinyin, who was pregnant out of wedlock and was overwhelmed by rumors and gossip.

Six years ago, she was just a little girl, and she endured the pain of pregnancy and childbirth all by herself.

The prince held Su Yinyin's hand, his eyes filled with heartache. "Ayin, you've suffered so much, and you've worked so hard. From now on...!"

He then gave Su Yinyin a deep bow, which Su Yinyin quickly stopped.

"I will also call you Ayin, Ayin. You deserve this courtesy!"

A mother's strength truly shines through!

I truly admire you. If I had met such a heartless man, I wouldn't have had the courage to give birth to your child.

"On behalf of A-Yuan, I apologize to you. He has wronged you so much, A-Yin. You are a good child."

Others have given birth to your grandchildren; she's truly a responsible mother. She herself couldn't do it; she simply doesn't have that kind of ability or courage.

He had already hanged himself. He dared not live on in this world.

Looking at their self-reproachful expressions, Su Yinyin felt they didn't seem to be faking it; they were genuinely sincere.

Did you contact me after that night?

“I have you. When I woke up, I found you were gone. I immediately sent people to look for you, but no matter how hard I searched, I couldn’t find you.”

In the years that followed, I never stopped searching.

Hearing this, I felt a little happy for the original owner. It turns out that someone still cares about you. No matter what kind of man this is, you have not been abandoned or forgotten by him.

Others have also tried to find you, but unfortunately, you are not meant to be.

Since none of this was their fault, Su Yinyin wouldn't dwell on it or obsess over the unfairness of this or that.

Since it's so unfair, then we should find our own way to get justice.

"Ayin, where is my grandson?" The Imperial Noble Consort asked expectantly. Now that she has a daughter-in-law and a grandson, let's see who dares to laugh at her now.

"Imperial Noble Consort, the baby has gone out to gain experience. If nothing unexpected happens, he should arrive in the capital in the next couple of days."

The Imperial Noble Consort didn't mind Su Yinyin's simple greeting, so she focused on her grandson.

"Ayin, come sit over here and chat with me about your grandson."

"You are now my chosen daughter-in-law. You will exchange your mother for A-Yuan's."

Su Yinyin was not afraid at all. She moved to a different spot and began to talk about her son in a very serious manner.

"My baby is five years old this year. He is so tall, very good-looking, cute, kind, and smart, but he is too cunning."

"Scheming?"

The two asked in unison, both curious about the slightly cunning nature of Su Yinyin's words.

"Yes, at such a young age, he's always thinking about how to scheme and plot against others."

"Ayin, he is our son. Isn't it inappropriate for you to say that?"

The Imperial Noble Consort echoed this sentiment.

“You are his father and his grandmother. What can’t you say in front of your own family?”

"That's right, the baby is my son, and no matter what he is like, I will love him."

She glanced at the prince and said, "How can you not love him? Aren't all his flaws inherited from you?"

“Ayin, that’s not a flaw, that’s intelligence.”

“Ayin, you and your son have suffered a lot. For the rest of your lives, I will never let you and your son suffer even the slightest bit more.”

The prince looked tenderly at Su Yinyin, secretly vowing to protect his wife and children for the rest of his life.

“My son and I have indeed suffered a lot, but all of that can be overcome. The only thing that cannot be overcome is those who harmed me. I want them to taste the suffering I have endured.”

Ah Yin, tell me, those who dare to bully me, I will make them pay the price.
