[1] Transmigrated Into a World of Villains

Yun Ting gave birth to a sickly son. Zhao Yin often beat and scolded her. Eventually, Zhao Yin divorced Yun Ting and expelled her from the Duke's household.

Speaking of which, Zhao Yin was truly ungrateful.

When Yun Ting married into the Duke's household, she brought a considerable dowry, all of which was used in the Duke's household.

When she was divorced, she left with nothing and even lost her son.

Yun Ting went to live in Jinlou Alley."

Jinlou Alley was once famous for being a slum.

In recent years, it had improved somewhat.

"Your Majesty, do you remember the incident when Princess Changping caught Shangguan Ze and Xiao Liangliang in Jinlou Alley?"

"Of course I remember."

"At that time, Yun Ting was at the forefront. But back then, I didn't recognize her."

She was only a few years older than Yun Ting, having seen her once when she was very young.

[So, it's Mrs. Yun! Mother, I remember now. She was the first to stand up for my aunt in the street. I even praised her for her future blessings.]

[A sickly son would bring her fortune.]

[So she's the sister of Aunt Yun.]

The Great Tyrant hadn't expected such a complicated situation.

"Uncle, if this matter is not a big deal, why did you only bring it up now?"

"Ah, it's because I couldn't speak of it. I was worried it would damage Yun Ting's reputation."

Concubine Xin, being a woman, was more sensitive. "Old man, do you know Yun Ting?"

"No, no, I don't know her. I only know she was an official's wife in Zhao Yin's era. Don't overthink it, my dear."

[Grandfather is lying.]

[Grandfather not only knows Yun Ting, he might even have had a secret affection for her.]

Concubine De looked thoughtful.

Yun Ting was even younger than Concubine Xin.

The Great Uncle was at least twenty years older than Yun Ting.

Concubine Xin had not been suspicious before, but after hearing this, she grew increasingly uneasy. "Earlier you said you were worried about Yun Ting's reputation. Why are you so concerned about her reputation? Do you have a relationship with her?"

The Great Uncle panicked. "No, that's not true. How could I possibly have a relationship with her? Yun Ting doesn't like me at all..."

Concubine Xin picked up on the clue. "Oh, you old lecher! Twenty years ago, she was young and beautiful, the prime of her youth, and you were already over forty. You wanted to pursue her?

If she didn't like you, it must be that you liked her, right?"

The Great Uncle was at a loss for words. "My dear, the Emperor and Concubine De are here. Can we discuss this later?"

"No! Wuwu, I truly didn't expect that you would be hiding someone in your heart behind my back!"

She had always believed that she was the Great Uncle's one true love, unique and irreplaceable.

She was wrong.

Completely wrong.

Years ago, when she married the Great Uncle as a concubine, it was right after the death of the Duke's first wife.
