Chapter 577 - 577 A Full Stop
Just when Zhou Ying thought that Gu Wanning had softened her heart, Gu Wanning suddenly said, “Good. The more corrupted, the worse his outcome will be.”
“Yup, since there’s no more relationship between you two, you two siblings can just live your own lives.”
“That’s right, I still have Chenglin.” Gu Wanning smiled.
Her previous life had already become a dream that could not be repeated, so she needed to grasp this life and live it well.
There was no need to think about those unpleasant things anymore.
After that, the two practiced some martial arts and went out to buy her dowry.
At the same time, Zhou Ying was also thinking about what kind of dowry to prepare.
In King Kang’s Imperial Residence, his expression turned grave when he considered what happened to King Hui.
He knew that the Emperor supervised this matter, so it seemed that he had to be more careful in the future.
Otherwise, he would also land in a terrible position.
Yang Shicheng was beheaded three days later, and all his family members were exiled.
Like the Gu Family, the Bai Family was raided and sent back to their hometown.
Gu Wanning could not help but laugh. It would be impossible for Yang Wanyu to stand out now.
At the same time, to relinquish the vengeance inside her, she brought Chunxi over to take a look from afar. When she saw Yang Wanyu’s miserable appearance with handcuffs and shackles on her body, she could not help but smile.
She realized that only Yang Wanyu and her brother had no one sending them off or giving them clothes. She said happily to Chunxi, “Let’s go home and buy some meat. We’ll have a good celebration tonight.”
“Oh, Mistress, you aren’t going to ‘send them off’?”
“No need. It’s enough to see her in a sorry state.” Gu Wanning shook her head.
As for sending them off, she would just be mocking her. There was really no need for that.
If word got out, it would be detrimental to her reputation.
When Chunxi heard this, she quickly walked back with her.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month had passed. It was also the day of King Kang’s daughter’s one-month-old birthday.
The night before, King Kang walked in and said, “Imperial Father has decided on the naming convention for the next generation of girls; it would start with ‘Le.’
“Mother gave the child the word ‘Xin,’ which meant prosperity. From now on, she will be called Yang Lexin.”
“Lexin, a lovely name with a good meaning.” Zhou Jiaying said, “Your Highness, no matter what, our daughter is the first child of her generation. Shouldn’t the Emperor bequeath her a title or something?”
“Who would be given a title at birth?”
Moreover, she was not his legitimate daughter. It was already good enough that the Emperor remembered that there was such a person.
Of course, he only said this inwardly and not out loud.
“Why not? Isn’t Mingyu one of them? Moreover, she’s not even the Emperor’s flesh and blood.”
King Kang turned around and said with disdain, “Your ambition is inflating. Remember that I was only conferred the title of King last year.
“As for Mingyu, she’s a special case. Back then, when King An followed Imperial Father out of the palace, he helped block an arrow and almost lost his life.
“After Consort An received the news, she gave birth prematurely and almost died with the baby.
“That was why Mingyu was given the title of princess. Do you think anyone can start at the top without any contributions?”
Zhou Jiaying felt her heart beating fast under his gaze. She hugged his arm and replied coquettishly, “I want to fight more for my daughter.
“Since it’s impossible, then I won’t suggest it again in the future.”
“It’s good that you remember. Mother will be here tomorrow, so be careful when you speak. If you make her unhappy, neither you nor your daughter will have a good time.” After King Kang finished speaking, he pulled his arm out and walked out.
“Farewell, Your Highness.” Zhou Jiaying bowed immediately.
After he walked far away, she looked at Mrs. Yu with an aggrieved expression and asked, “Mrs.. Yu, do you think His Highness has a change of heart?”
