520 Acknowledge me as the eldest daughter

Jin Yu and Xiaoming went to meet Li Jianjun in the evening after seeing the Queen, who was sleeping. They stepped out of the carriage and walked inside the Li Residence.

However, before going in Xiaoming asked Jin Yu for the nth time if they should use this way. Jin Yu told her for the nth time that they would go with her plan.

As they reached the courtyard, they first encountered Li Jianjun. He walked up to them and greeted both of them.

“Call your father. We have an urgent matter to discuss with him,” Xiaoming told him. Li Jianjun lifted his head and glanced at the servant. He gestured to the servant, who went to inform the master of the house.

“Please come this way, Your Royal Highnesses,” Li Jianjun humbly said and they left for the guest room. Li Jianjun’s mother, Lady Li, came with two female servants and served tea to both of them.

“We are not here to drink tea or have any friendly conversation. I want you not to do this,” Jin Yu said while suppressing her anger.

Both mother and son looked at each other when Li Zixuan entered. He apologized for getting late.

“Have a seat,” Xiaoming asserted.

Li Zixuan took the seat in front of them while his wife sat next to him when Jin Yu asked her. Li Jianjun remained standing. He pondered what could be the matter that both the Crown Prince and Crown Princess had come there.

.....

“I want Lord Li to tell the name of the woman whom he kicked out of the house only to marry the woman who is now his wife,” Jin Yu pronounced.

Li Zixuan got shocked to hear about it and he looked at the Crown Prince, who had a stoic expression on his face.

“Pardon me, but what is the Crown Princess saying?” Lady Li asked. She did not like the way Jin Yu accused her husband of having an affair with another woman.

“Jianjun, please take your mother away,” Li Zixuan ordered his son. Li Jianjun stepped up when Jin Yu asked him to stay where he was.

“Your son should also know that he inherited the qualities of cheating from his father only,” Jin Yu stated and chuckled. “Answer my question, Lord Li,” she demanded.

Li Zixuan lowered his head and fiddled with his fingers. “Liu Yinuo was her name, Your Royal Highness,” he finally replied.

“You know that the woman was pregnant with your child, yet you kicked her out of the house on one dark night. Because she could not benefit you, so you decided to throw her out of your life and marry another woman who was from a noble family,” Jin Yu stated.

Li Zixuan did not deny those facts as they were true. Li Jianjun looked at his father and furrowed his brows together.

“I apologize for the wrong I did,” Li Zixuan said while feeling guilty.

“I am the daughter of Liu Yinuo, Liu Jin Yu.” The revelation shocked all of them except Xiaoming. “Sadly, my mother died a few months after my birth. Every day, I desired to find the man who did wrong to my mother. It took me time, but finally, I found you. It is the time when you should fulfill your fatherly duties toward me.” She paused and let Li Zixuan speak.

“The Crown Princess shall not lie. How could she be the daughter—” Lady Li was stopped by Li Zixuan.

“She is my daughter. I was supposed to marry Liu Yinuo, but because of the greed I possessed, I did not marry her. Her Royal Highness is right. I threw her out of the house,” Li Zixuan admitted the truth in front of them.

“I never wanted to forgive a man who did wrong to my mother. Even at this moment, my mind is telling me to demand the harshest punishment for the man, who ruined my mother’s life. I grew up in utter poverty while all of you lived a life of comfort,” Jin Yu’s eyes filled with tears while speaking all those things.

“It is the time when you should acknowledge me as the eldest daughter of the Li Family. That is the only way to calm my anger down,” Jin Yu pronounced.

“Her Royal Highness’ mother never married my husband. So, in that sense the Crown Prince is an illegitimate daughter,” Lady Li argued.

“But you cannot deny the fact that I am his eldest daughter,” Jin Yu affirmed. “Your husband should rectify his mistake when I am giving him a chance. Your son has already destroyed the name of the Li family with his great act.” She did not refrain from being sarcastic and gazed at Li Jianjun.

“The Crown Princess is right. The Li Family is no longer a reputed family among the noble class as it used to be,” Xiaoming affirmed.

“Acknowledging me as the eldest daughter of the Li family will at least save you all from getting drowned,” Jin Yu proclaimed. She never wanted Li Zixuan to use her again to get his lost power back.

However, more than that Xiaoming mattered to him. She did not want him to step down as the Crown Prince nor did she want the King to force him into a second marriage. Xiaoming held her hand in the most vulnerable time of his life and she had to save him.

Li Jianjun gazed at his father and wondered what his decision would be.

“I will do that, Your Royal Highness,” Li Zixuan affirmed.

Jin Yu stood up and so did Xiaoming. “Follow us to the palace,” Jin Yu said and walked out of the guest room. Li Jianjun bowed his head as they both left. He looked at his father, who told him that he would return soon.

“Son, stop your father,” Lady Li told her son.

“Mother, do you not want the Li family to gain its power back?” Li Jianjun asked. “My elder sister is the Crown Princess. Father has done nothing wrong, so let’s respect his decision,” he asserted with a smile.
