Chapter 471 These two are the enemies who killed my mother!

“As I said, I have met my mother and even had a acquaintance with her.”

"It is because your mother has not been reincarnated and is watching over you from the underworld."

"She knew you were destined to die young and be widowed, so she sent me back, hoping to defy fate and change my fate, and then change yours."

Although every word she said was puzzling.

But I had visited Li Qingluo's past life in my dream, and the experience was incredibly real.

There was Zongzheng Yu'er's soul from another world.

Later, Zuliya swapped his soul with Ku Lianqiao to prolong his life.

Too many unbelievable things have already happened. What's so strange about adding another one of his Luo'er to the mix? She's a reborn person too.

Her fate in her previous life was truly tragic.

Unfortunately, he arrived too late and was unable to save her.

All that was found were her remains, the bones and remains of a woman who had been eaten by wild dogs.

Fortunately, she was reborn and successfully met herself in this life.

Duan Rongshi quickly accepted all of this.

His expression turned serious when his mother was mentioned.

"Luo'er, tell me, what exactly happened between you and your mother?"

Li Qingluo then told Duan Rongshi everything that happened after she fainted.

"My mother said I am your destined marriage star."

"In my past life, because the stars were out of alignment and disorder, we were unable to meet, and I met a tragic end."

"My mother couldn't bear to see us end up like this, so she defied fate and sent me back to the General's Mansion two days before my return."

"By the way, Ah Shi, my mother... she also told me the whole truth about how she was murdered."

Because she returned with memories of the underworld, Li Qingluo became mentally impaired for a period of time due to the unbearable strain on her mortal body.

As time went by, and after absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, she slowly restored all her memories on her own.

Naturally, he remembered the words his mother had said.

It was a pity that Duan Rongshi wasn't by her side at the time, and she couldn't tell him in time.

Writing letters wasn't a safe option either, so Li Qingluo could only wait for him to return.

But he never returned, and Li Qingluo waited, hoping to escape from Miao territory and go find him in person.

Fortunately, the two of them were finally reunited after many twists and turns.

Duan Rongshi's expression changed upon hearing this.

He grabbed Li Qingluo's arms in a fit of rage, his emotions becoming increasingly agitated, and his voice rising involuntarily.

"I have thoroughly investigated the entire palace of the Great Liang Dynasty."

"But I don't believe the news that Zongzheng Wuheng sent back."

"He has covered up the Great Chu too completely, which is why I have to go to Great Chu myself to find out what he is hiding?"

"Now, Luo'er, tell me quickly, what is the truth behind your mother's tragic death back then?"

Li Qingluo: "Ashi, don't worry."

"Once we leave Ningyuan Temple and go to a safe, secluded place, I'll explain everything to you in detail."

"However, right now there are two enemies who harmed my mother."

"Firstly, the second princess who is coming today is one of the murderers who harmed my mother in the past."

"Furthermore, if I am not mistaken, the abbot of Ningyuan Temple, Abbot Jia Guan, is also someone who deeply hurt my mother and betrayed her true feelings."

After saying that, Li Qingluo immediately called for Zhuiyu.

"Have you investigated the matter I asked you to look into yesterday?"

Zhuiyu replied, "Miss, I have found out that the abbot of Jia Temple was indeed the eldest son of the Xie family, a prominent family in Nan'an."

"I heard that he was very learned back then, not only was he highly knowledgeable and handsome, but his family background was also one of the best in Nan'an."

"He was still the most sought-after young man in all of Nan'an."

"However, twenty-five years ago, right after the eldest princess... that is, His Highness's mother, married into the Great Liang, he went crazy and resolutely ran to Ningyuan Temple to become a monk."

"I heard that he refused to go back despite his own father threatening him with a sword and his mother threatening to hang herself."

"In the end, it was only after the Chu Emperor invited the head of the Xie family into the palace and gave him a few words of advice that the Xie family was spared from any tragedy."

"However, from then on, the Xie family severed ties with the abbot of Jia Guan Temple. According to the Xie family rules, from then on, all Xie family members were forbidden from coming to Ningyuan Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha."

"Furthermore... I have also heard..."

Knowing that he was wary of Duan Rongshi, Li Qingluo also looked at Duan Rongshi, waiting for him to speak.

Duan Rongshi: "Tell me whatever you have heard."

Zhuiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it was the young lady who asked him to inquire. Even if the result was terrible, Your Highness wouldn't be willing to be angry with the young lady, would he?

Zhuiyu: "Rumors are circulating that the Imperial Concubine and this Jia Guan had an affair."

"And this Abbot Jia Guan is a lovelorn man. Because he couldn't let go of the legitimate princess who was married off to Daliang, he was heartbroken and abandoned all worldly glory to become a monk."

Li Qing, exasperated, put her hands on her hips and yelled, "What a load of bull!"

Zhuiyu was so frightened that he shuddered.

Why is this girl speaking less and less politely?

Even the sparrows now often talk about "farts" all the time.

The two of them really are a perfect master and servant.

Duan Rongshi waved his hand with a gloomy face: "Aren't you going down? Are you waiting to be beaten?"

Zhuiyu quickly rolled away.

Li Qingluo returned to the room and, in a fit of anger, punched the table, instantly cracking it.

Duan Rongshi: ...

His daughter was indeed a girl with extraordinary strength.

Duan Rongshi: "Don't be angry. I knew about this a long time ago, and it's exactly the same news that Zongzheng Wuheng sent to Daliang."

Li Qingluo: "But that's not the truth!"

"Back then, this Jia Guan, who was Xie Huaiyuan, the eldest son of the Xie family, pretended to be a virtuous and upright gentleman in public, but in private he begged his mother to favor him."

"But the Xie family will not allow him to become a prince consort."

"According to the laws of the Great Chu Dynasty, a husband who marries a princess cannot hold an official position of the third rank or above. Isn't this going to cut off the Xie family's lifeline and future prospects?"

"So no matter how hard he pleaded with his mother at the beginning, she never agreed to his proposal."

"At that time, my mother's situation in the palace was somewhat delicate, so she went to the royal estate by the sea to relax. Unfortunately, she encountered bandits, and it was Xie Huaiyuan who suddenly jumped out and saved my mother's life."

"It was from then on that my mother gradually grew closer to him."

“He repeatedly assured that the Xie family still had so many legitimate and illegitimate sons, and that even if he were to be lost, it would not cause any turmoil in the family. He would persuade the entire Xie family.”

"But Xie Huaiyuan, on the surface, showed no abnormality, but when he turned around, he suddenly changed his expression and sent his mother away..."

When Li Qingluo looked up at Duan Rong, she didn't know how to say it.

"In any case, this man committed an unspeakable crime against my mother!"

"It was because of him that my mother resolutely chose to marry into the Liang Dynasty."

"So what if he runs to Ningyuan Temple to become a monk? He can never wash away the sins he committed against his mother!"

Duan Rongshi leaned on the table, looking somewhat dazed.

Fearing he might misunderstand, Li Qingluo added, "Ashi, when my mother married into Daliang, she preserved her purity and chastity."

"Otherwise, given your father's temperament, he probably wouldn't have doted on her for so many years."
