The guards at the entrance of the princess's residence took the letter from the little boy. Although they were somewhat puzzled, they couldn't help but pay attention when they looked at the words "To Princess Huajin" written on the envelope.

"You few stay here and guard this place. I'll take this inside and show it to the princess."

The lead guard gave a shout and went inside with the envelope. Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Jiang Yuyue sneered inwardly.

The letter contained nothing more than information about Xie Yunqi, the future imperial son-in-law, who had already married in Jiangnan. As for the fact that his manhood had been destroyed, Jiang Yuyue had not yet written about it.

It wasn't because Jiang Yuyue wanted to protect Xie Yunqi's last shred of dignity; she just wanted to see if Song Jinwan could pull back from the brink and depose the prince consort.

If she could wake up sooner and recognize the person in front of her, that would be fine. But if Song Jinwan is still stubborn and disregards human ethics to be with Xie Yunqi, then the loss of her manhood can be considered as a wedding gift from Jiang Yuyue to this perfect couple.

"your Highness."

The guard took the letter and entered the inner hall. At that moment, Song Jinwan was in the room taking care of Xie Yunqi, who had just moved to the princess's residence.

"Someone just delivered a letter that is addressed to Your Highness. Would you like to take a look at it?"

Because there was still no progress in the matter of Xie Yunqi's attack, Song Jinwan's mood had been quite bad lately. She snatched the letter from the guard's hand and frowned as she saw that it was an unsigned letter.

Looking at the letter, Xie Yunqi felt a sense of foreboding for some reason. "Who sent this?"

The guard immediately replied, "It was brought by a child; it seems he was entrusted by someone."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yunqi felt a sense of foreboding. "This anonymous letter is likely a trap. Wan'er, you must be careful."

With his cautious reminder, Song Jinwan's expression softened slightly, and she opened the letter with her finger on it.

But upon seeing this, Song Jinwan's expression changed drastically.

"Xie Yunqi already has a wife back in his hometown in Jiangnan?!"

Song Jinwan's face immediately turned gloomy and terrifying. Her hand holding the letter clenched involuntarily, almost crushing it. Xie Yunqi's body stiffened for a moment when he saw her reaction.

"Xie Yunqi, is what's said in this letter true?!"

A fierce gaze fell upon him, Song Jinwan's face filled with undisguised anger. "You really are already married?!"

Faced with the questioning, Xie Yunqi's face turned deathly pale in an instant, and fine beads of cold sweat involuntarily seeped from his forehead.

Having spent this time with her, he knew Song Jinwan's temperament well. If he really angered her, he would most likely end up dead without a trace.

As Xie Yunqi carefully considered his words, Song Jinwan saw him as hesitant and unwilling to answer, and she let out a cold laugh.

"I advise you to tell the truth. I will send people to Jiangnan to investigate and they will find out the truth. If you dare to lie..."

The rest is self-evident; Xie Yunqi's eyes were filled with gloom.

In his previous life, he married a princess and became her consort, achieving great success and returning in glory to take care of Jiang Yuyue's entire family.

Although he didn't know why he was reborn in this life, he thought that he would live better if he could start over. But he never expected that he would lose his manhood as soon as he was reborn!

From then on, whether it was Jiang Yuyue who suddenly came to the capital or his useless half-brother who changed his identity, everything gradually slipped out of his control, and he even lost an arm!

Now, the truth that he was already married has been exposed... Seeing that he could no longer cover it up, Xie Yunqi quickly concealed his gloom and adopted a humble posture.

"Wan'er, don't be angry yet! I did get married before I left home, but it was just my parents' arrangement, and I really couldn't resist it."

Xie Yunqi struggled to sit up and knelt down in front of Song Jinwan.

“I have no marital relationship with that woman, nor can we be considered a real couple, which is why I have not told you... It is truly not that I intentionally wanted to hide it from you.”

"Just as you said, Wan'er, we could find out everything simply by sending someone to investigate. How could I possibly have the guts? I just haven't found a suitable opportunity to explain this to you yet!"

Seeing that Song Jinwan seemed to be wavering, Xie Yunqi sighed and looked at his empty sleeve.

"Now... I wonder if someone is holding a grudge against me because I have become the emperor's son-in-law. I have lost an arm and am no different from a cripple. If Wan'er doesn't believe me either... then you can do whatever you want with me."

Xie Yunqi sounded like he had resigned himself to his fate, but his other hand was clenched into a fist. He was so nervous that the hairs on his body stood on end. He silently prayed that his words would move Song Jinwan, otherwise he would die here today!

Perhaps because Xie Yunqi's words were truly "sincere," Song Jinwan's anger was not as intense as before.

However, his expression changed several times as he looked at the man in front of him.

Song Jinwan initially took a liking to Xie Yunqi because she saw his masculinity, his upright and unyielding character. She never expected that her former savior would now fawn over her like this, showing no manly qualities whatsoever.

"Let's focus on recovering first."

Song Jinwan immediately lost her mood. Although she did not intend to deal with Xie Yunqi for the time being, she still had to consider whether or not to let this useless man continue to be her husband.

Seeing Song Jinwan drop the letter and leave, Xie Yunqi, whose hands and feet were ice-cold from nervousness, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't lose his life today, it wasn't hard to tell from Song Jinwan's tone just now that she no longer trusted him as much as before.

Xie Yunqi staggered to his feet, picked up the letter that Song Jinwan had thrown on the ground, and looked at the line of delicate handwriting on the letter, instantly understanding.

Although Xie Yunqi has no evidence, who else could have done this besides them?

"Who gave you permission to bring in this stuff of dubious origin?"

Xie Yunqi turned his head, his humble demeanor in front of the princess completely changed, and his tone became ruthless.

"Is this how all the servants in the Princess's residence work?!"

The guard was indignant at being insulted by Xie Yunqi for no reason. In addition, he had just witnessed Xie Yunqi's ugly behavior and also felt a little contemptuous of this "Prince Consort".

"Your Highness, please don't misunderstand your identity."

The guard said coldly, "This is the princess's residence. If we servants do something wrong, the princess will deal with it, and we will not dare to complain. But since Her Highness the princess has not punished us, it is probably not the place for the prince consort to overstep his bounds. Besides, it is not certain whether you can still become the prince consort."
