"Su Wenzhong's greatest wish was to make Su Family's grandson the new Crown Prince of Dayan, but I wouldn't let him succeed. To take revenge on him and Rong Jing, I used a unique poison... to deprive Rong Jing of the ability to impregnate a woman from then on."
From then on, after giving birth to Miaoyan, she bore no more children. Su Wenzhong had to resort to schemes, adopting Rong Qichun, whose birth mother died early, under her name as her legitimate son.
Su Zhixue finished speaking, revealing a satisfied and cathartic smile.
"I have no regrets about this matter."
She recalled a month ago when Zhang Fengcai delivered an incense burner by imperial decree.
Su Zhixue and Zhang Fengcai were old acquaintances, though they had no interaction, they had familiar ties from their time in the Eastern Palace. The latter handed her the incense burner but shook his head at her.
