what about the punishment for the first prince's death? didn't he say that mei fang and her familly will pay? or will he just punish her for his poisoning?

See this! I just gifted the story: Lollipop

that guy in purple is not the ml, is he? being one of the masterminds of all this, i don't see how he is better than the weak emperor....

me too, sometimes i wish that hui lan would lose control, like her mother did, in front of him just so he would see what it means to mess with her. That man is really a stupid emperor... you have so many rulers in your country, and what do you do? atack the empress's familly, letting everyone know you have a bad relationship with your wife and your generals...

does this novel have a ml? this emperor sure does not seem like one ....seeing how he fights for this son but with the first one he was something like... blame your mother for not being able to protect you really makes me sick. Sure do hope that he doesn't forget the punishmet for mei fang and her familly like he promised. Anyway thank you for this story, i love it as much as it makes my blood boil....

i think that her brother did it...

cassius....you just told him your identity....

oh well, her teacher is james, i think even hurt she could put on a fight especially when their life is at stake....

this reaally is not a good day for them. This is why it's better to have courage indoors and not out in the woods, cassius....

yes those times were ugly for women but i was expecting a little courtesy. That did exist back then between nobles, especially with a duke's daughter

i would love to see some character development from both the father and brother, and a talk between these 3 like aby lashing out at both of them for their pasivity or something like that ..... hehe...i was just waiting for more chapters

would he be so open to this familly building if the step mother had a boy? he should thank all the gods that his father at least protected him by not allowing that woman to give birth, else it would not be just bullying or abuse he might just as well lose his life. At least the duke is a good father to one of his children ....

i hoped for some kind of reaction when she asked him that .... but he is just .... don't know how to even discribe it. They are bullying your sister, and your reaction is....what a headacke? or ..oh well it's not wrong because she is bullying them too? IT is wrong, aby is the true duke's daughter, it is her home but they came in and tried to take what is hers and abused her since she was a child...it is normal for her to act in such a way. How can he not see this? and he said he loves her.... yeah don't really see his or the dukes love.... they are really losing favorability points for me at least

this is really not safe, at all....how is it that he has more courage outside than indoors?

oh ....i am still here, not going anywhere until the story is over

as much as i love that they finally talk, i don't know why but this chapter gives a sad vibe. Like she said the most proud noble girl, first in the academy, sought-after by many noble houses, has fallen in love with a married man. If she were to chose any other man at least she could've been the first wife, having her own child, not living as a widow (as she did in her first life) and getting the respect she deserves. The funny thing here was that cassius mother wanted mari for him but he chose elizabeth, i don't know how beautifull she was but i get the feeling from the previous chapters that she wasn't the smartest one. Don't know how cassius parents saw her, when they initialy wanted mari? ....And cassius for god sake, you see how this subject affects her, why just why do you have to ask her that????!!!

such cliffhangers should be illegal, you sure do know how to play with our hearts, dear author. In these 3 days will cassius learn about mari's crush on him in the academy? i really, really, really want to see how he will react when he finds out that the woman that he broke her heart is the one that loved him for sooo long, while he married someone that he loved but that one was anything but sincere to him. Thamks for the chapter!

in one of the coments the author said that katherine had twins in the first timeline

soooo josephine + aby=BFF?

step mother....and even as a mother you won't intervene all the time in your children discussion or father-daughter talk, my mother sure didn't.... and don't tell me they don't see or hear the hiden dagers when she talks to/about aby
