“Let me see.”

“There’s nothing to see.”

“Give me your hand.” Jiang Ning grabbed his wrist and forcibly rolled up his sleeve.

There were scars and burn marks on his forearm, extending upwards to an unknown point.

Jiang Ning gasped.

She knew that he had been injured, but she hadn’t thought the burns would be so severe.

No wonder the Emperor had not punished him but allowed him to return to Prince Yu’s residence to recover.

The pain of burns and scalds were unbearable for ordinary people.

Let alone such a large area.

“Does it still hurt?” Jiang Ning asked.

Li Hongyuan withdrew his hand and lowered his sleeve. Coldly, he said, “What do you think?”

Jiang Ning turned away, becoming somewhat silent.

The early spring sunshine was somewhat warm.

But Jiang Ning’s mood was a bit heavy.

Though she had told herself countless times not to worry about others and to be content with living a carefree and happy life, she was just an ordinary disabled person without power or influence. She couldn’t manage others’ affairs.

But why did Wu’er’s cries keep echoing in her head?

When she thought of those old, weak, women, and children being tortured by Prince of Huai’s men with whips and branding irons…

She couldn’t convince herself to turn a blind eye.

“Your Highness, let’s go back to Crystal Frost Hall.” She spoke up after a while.

“Alright, I’ll have someone send you and the child back.”

Li Hongyuan thought she was going to pick up the child, but when they returned to Crystal Frost Hall, she did not go to the side hall to fetch the child. Instead, she pushed her wheelchair towards the main hall where the Emperor was.

“Jiang Ning!”

Li Hongyuan called her, “What are you doing?”

“I’m going to see His Majesty.”

“What do you want to do?” Li Hongyuan followed her and stopped the wheelchair, “Do you want to help the Wenren Family? Think about whether you have the ability first! Who do you think you are? The crime committed by the Wenren Family is an unforgivable rebellion!”

Jiang Ning laughed, “I know I’m not much. Just for my peace of mind, I suppose.”

“Do you think Emperor Father will listen to you?”

“In life, there are things to do and things not to do. Although I enjoy living a lazy and comfortable life, occasionally, I need to have some courage.”

She glanced at his hand.

Li Hongyuan stared at her for a moment, then slowly let go.

Jiang Ning pushed her wheelchair towards the main hall.

Li Hongyuan followed and pushed her wheelchair, “I’ll go with you.”

“Aren’t you enemies with the Wenren Family?”

“Of course, this prince will not plead for Wenren Zong. I just want to keep an eye on you, in case your words are disrespectful and anger Emperor Father. If that happens, you won’t have helped anyone, and you’ll have dragged yourself down too.”

Jiang Ning laughed, “I’m not that stupid.”

“Don’t be too clever.”

“Alright.”

Jiang Ning withdrew her hands and obediently placed them on her lap, allowing him to push her.

The Emperor was reading a document, and when he saw them return, he tossed it aside and said indifferently, “Why haven’t you left the palace yet?”

Jiang Ning reached out towards Li Hongyuan—

Li Hongyuan was stunned, but instinctively gave her his hand.

Jiang Ning, using his hand as support, stood up and knelt on the ground, “Jiang Ning requests Your Majesty.”

The Emperor said indifferently, “What’s the matter, Ning’er? Stand up and speak.”

“I want to take the child back to Prince Yu’s residence.”

Li Hongyuan looked at her with furrowed brows.

The Emperor laughed, “Ning’er, are you joking with me? The matter of you and Prince Yu’s divorce was requested by your family. What was my Imperial Edict?”

Jiang Ning smiled, “It was my fault. I was ignorant. Wenzan and Lingzi are both royalty, and they shouldn’t waste their days with me in Jiang Family. It’s not conducive to their growth.”

The Emperor said, “You should think this through. Changing your mind back and forth could easily make the royal family a laughingstock..”
