I think my luck is turning around.

An Ge was deep in thought when the box stopped moving. It had been opened, and An Ge curled up inside. Sunlight entered the cramped space. This box was An Ge's current "hiding place." An Ge slowly peeked out, looking at the space outside the box.

The cramped space had long been making her irritable. She stood up and stretched her arms and legs. However, her feet didn't leave the box; she was just looking around at her surroundings. She was in a courtyard, wondering who was looking for her.

An Ge stepped out of the box and looked back. A person walked out and saw An Ge dressed up beautifully. She looked different from how she looked at the Hundred Flowers Banquet. She was a bright and cheerful girl that day, but now she was a bewitching beauty.

"Come sit here."

An Ge dared not approach. She didn't know what Consort Jia was going to do, so she could only wait and see. However, her motionless stance still displeased Yi Yunhan. Although somewhat angry, Yi Yunhan still managed a smile.

"I have a few questions for you, and I would appreciate it if you could answer them all."

Yi Yunhan is still maintaining a facade; she can't let go of her status! Even more so, she can't let go of her child. Perhaps it was wrong of her to enter the palace and become a prisoner in that "cage." She has no other choice; she must save her child!

An Ge didn't care about her own attitude or the other party's attitude; she only had one thought: to verify her conjecture.

"We can exchange information, is that alright with you?"

An Ge looked at Yi Yunhan with some anticipation. She hesitated, wondering what Si Mian wanted to know, but in just a second, Yi Yunhan agreed. Nothing could compare to her child.

"Ask away, and I'll tell you everything I know."

"There are some things I'm not clear about. Who exactly are you? You are Ji Xia's student, but your name is not in Ji Xia's student handbook. However, there is someone I think might be you—Yan Xu."

When An Ge first saw this name, she felt it wasn't so simple. It belonged to one of the top three in that year's competition. Even if her father was convicted, she could still get Mr. Ji to protect him.

"As one of Mr. Ji's most outstanding students, Mr. Ji could have protected Yan Xu by protecting talent. However, after Yan Xu's father had an accident, Yan Xu seemed to become a different person."

There was no cry for help, no struggle; he lay there like a corpse.

Yi Yunhan looked at An Ge, who was speaking, with some surprise, but she didn't lose her composure. This time, she could also find out whether this know-it-all's identity was real or not.

"How did you know?"

"I found out from the student handbook! Calculate the time of Yan Xu's death and the time when you started to rise to fame. Although you are very capable, you forgot to hide what you have learned."

You learned so much from Ji Xia; you were too eager to be the best. Often, you resorted to methods that weren't your style.

Wasn't the phonograph you used when you first appeared a bit too abrupt? The information I saw at the Ji residence showed that it was the first time a phonograph had ever appeared! I even specifically asked Ji Xia if this abrupt presence was too obvious.

Ji Xia didn't doubt your identity, nor did Hua Zhiluo; they simply assumed you learned these things from others.

Actually, that's not the case. Ji Xia simply didn't pay attention to this matter. The records here are all registered by a large information team and are absolutely consistent with objective facts. Ji Xia didn't care about these things because many things happened back then. During the period when Yi Yunhan's fame was rising, a major event occurred: the late emperor passed away, and the new emperor ascended the throne.

Yi Yunhan's fame was also one of the reasons she was forced to enter the palace. At that time, talented women were hard to come by. Yan Xu might have been worthy of the title of the number one talented woman in the world, but Yi Yunhan was the famous talented woman in the capital. Her fame was always a little smaller than that of Yan Xu.

Some people lament that such a world-class talent was ruined by his muddle-headed father.
