My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

An Yi then released her, used his dagger to cut open her finger, dripped a few drops of blood into it, and the restless insect, smelling the blood, slowly returned to the bottle.

An Yi said, "Hurry up and tell me! A few drops of blood are not enough to satisfy this bloodthirsty worm."

Ning Shi trembled as she said, "Is the Prince unwilling to come see me because he knows about what happened between us? We only slept together once, it was just an accident. Please, let me see the Prince, okay?"

An Yi did not answer her question, but instead fiddled with the porcelain bottle in his hand, his threatening intent quite obvious.

Ning dared not plead any further, knowing that she was likely doomed today. She said, "Could you please give me a quick death after I've finished speaking?"

An Yi agreed to her request.

Ning then asked, "What about the child?" Thinking of her newborn child, she couldn't help but wipe away her tears. "We only had that one time together. The child really is the prince's. Please, please, let the child go."

“The prince is infertile, how could the child be his?” An Yi observed her expression and said, “You still won’t tell the truth even now?”

Madam Ning's eyes widened in disbelief: "How is this possible? The manor clearly..."

As she spoke, she suddenly covered her mouth.

The princess and the concubine both had children, yet he said the prince was infertile. Doesn't that mean they weren't born to the prince?

The only reason An Yi would so openly tell her such confidential information could be that he already considered her dead.

She is doomed to die today.

Ning felt despair.

But thinking about her experience of entering the Prince's mansion, she couldn't help but feel resentful and aggrieved. She and her cousin were clearly in love and were just waiting for him to come and propose marriage.

But the prince only saw her once before sending people to her home with gold and silver, saying he wanted to bring her into his mansion.

When her parents heard that she had been accepted into the Prince's Mansion, they felt it was an incredible stroke of luck and a great honor for their Ning family.

Regardless of whether she and her cousin had feelings for each other, he immediately followed the Prince's orders and sent her to the Prince's residence.

Ning said, "I did make a mistake, but it wasn't my wish to enter the Prince's mansion in the first place."

An Yi said, "You don't need to tell me any of that. You just need to tell me who the man you had sex with is and where you had sex."

A hint of nervousness flashed in Ning's eyes. She said, "This is all my fault. It has nothing to do with him. Don't cause him any trouble."

An Yi said, "This is not your concern. You should worry about yourself and answer my question."

Knowing she was not going to survive, Ning quietly observed her surroundings and suddenly noticed a pair of scissors on the table.

It was probably used by the midwife when cutting the umbilical cord.

I don't know why the scissors weren't taken away; they're still on the table.

She feigned resignation and began negotiating with An Yi, "I'll tell you everything honestly, if you want to spare the child's life, you can even let him be raised elsewhere?"

An Yi said, "I can't make that decision."

Ning said, "Could I see my child one last time before I die? I want to see my child one last time before we talk about it."

This time, An Yi did not refuse.

The child is in the next room. When An Yi came in just now, he drugged all the servants in the courtyard until they were unconscious. Right now, all the servants in the courtyard are unconscious.

He wasn't afraid of anyone helping Ning Shi, and he walked quickly towards the next room.

Seeing that An Yi had left, Ning Shi hurriedly grabbed the scissors on the table and plunged them into her own chest.

When An Yi returned with the child, Ning's chest was already gushing blood.

An Yi glanced at her injuries and sighed, "Why did you do this? Even if you didn't tell us, we could still find out who he is."

After saying that, he placed the child next to Ning Shi, and then raised his hand to knock over the candlestick in the room.

Instantly, a raging fire broke out in the room.

With her last breath, Ning looked at the child beside her, and tears streamed down her face.

The smoke and fire in the room woke the sleeping baby, who began to cry loudly.

Ning slowly reached out her hand, wanting to comfort the child, but she had no strength.

An Yi took one last look at the crying baby, then left the room expressionlessly and continued setting fires, burning down the adjacent rooms.

Ji Yunshuang, inside the space, watched An Yi leave, pouted, and said, "How could they do that to such a small baby? They're really heartless!"

And with so many nice things in the room, they just burned them without hesitation; they must be really rich.

As she muttered to herself, she quickly moved the items in the room into the space.

Looking at Ning Shi, who had already fainted, and the poor baby, she pursed her lips and moved the two of them into the space as well.

Then, they placed one of the corpses of the Huang family guards they had killed in the forest at Ning's location.

Although it wasn't a female corpse, it was burned in a fire, so it shouldn't be too different.

As for the baby, if no body is found, they probably won't suspect anything. After all, a baby is so small; it's quite normal for it to be burned to ashes in a fire.

Ji Yunshuang glanced at the baby, who had gradually stopped crying, after leaving the environment of the fire, and continued to pack things into her space.

Although Yuexin Courtyard was just a place where one of Prince Duan's concubines lived, the things inside were all high-quality items that ordinary people couldn't afford.

It would be such a waste to burn so many good things.

Ji Yunshuang moved all the chests, jewelry, clothes, tables, chairs, bonsai, flowers, and even the canopy bed from the room into the space.

Anyway, the space is large enough to fit a lot of things.

To prevent her from moving her belongings, reduce the fire's intensity, and arouse suspicion, she casually threw unwanted trash into the space and burned it.

Soon, everything that could be moved from Yuexin Courtyard was moved into the space by Ji Yunshuang.

Seeing the servants who had been drugged by An Yi and were about to be burned alive, she hesitated for a moment, but still moved them all into the space.

These people were all there to serve Ning Shi during childbirth. As long as they lived alongside Ning Shi and her child, it would be as if she held a trump card to defeat Prince Duan, which she might use at any time.

I'll put them in my spatial storage for now, and then figure out how to deal with them. But I wonder what kind of medicine the guards used on them; with such a huge fire, none of them have woken up.

Ji Yunshuang thought of the worm in his hand.

Ning seemed terrified of the insect, preferring suicide to being tormented by it.

When she wakes up, she will ask what the insect is.

Thinking to herself, Ji Yunshuang put in the body of another guard from the Huang family.

Besides the Ning family mother and son, she rescued a total of seven people from the courtyard and brought them back to her space.

There were two maids, four old women, and one wet nurse.

They only put in one corpse; that's far too few.

She hesitated for a moment and did not put Huang Jiayu's body in as well.

Instead, they went to the hospital morgue and picked out six female corpses to take inside.

While Ji Yunshuang was busy switching the bodies, the people in the Prince's Mansion had already discovered that Yuexin Courtyard was on fire.

The servants and guards of the Prince's mansion began to busy themselves putting out the fire.
