After Qi Yuning finished setting off the fireworks signal, he looked at the signal coming back from afar, then went inside and said to Huang Tao:
"Huang Jiedushi, you have also seen how mad the Qin family is. If you continue to stand on the Qin family's side, your only grandson will be in danger. Huang Fei has inhaled the opium and will not live long. You should think carefully. Do you want to join the Qin family and be infamous forever, or get rid of the Qin family and be loyal to His Majesty?"
Huang Tao looked at Qi Yuning who was standing in front of him and didn't look like an ordinary maid, so he asked, "Who are you?"
Qi Yuning said: "Princess Chang'an of Prince Qi's Mansion, Qi Yuning!"
Huang Tao said: "It turns out to be Princess Qi. I am sorry for my disrespect."
Shen Qian stepped forward and said to Huang Tao, “Brother Huang.”
Huang Tao looked at Qin Wan who was being held hostage by Lu Ze and said, "Qin Wan, let me ask you, did you drug me the day I got pregnant with Fei'er? And did you kill Rui'er's mother?"
Qin Wan said, "So what if it's me? My fifth brother's troops have already arrived in Longzhou City. If you dare to kill me, my fifth brother will not spare you!"
Huang Tao walked up to Qin Wan and said, "Back then, I thought I had offended you after drinking, and I felt guilty about it. Even though I had to bear the stigma of being unfaithful, I still married you. Later, I felt that you were sincere in living together, and except for my mother not letting you contact Rui'er, I also gave you the greatest respect!
For Fei'er's sake, I never doubted whether you had killed Rui'er's mother! I didn't expect you to be so cruel that you killed Rui'er and even his child!
I will never forgive you today!"
Qin Wan said arrogantly: "My cousin is the prince, how dare you touch me?"
Lu Yun pouted, "Are you talking about my fake uncle? He is not even of Zhao family blood. You know better than anyone whether he can secure the position of crown prince!"
Huang Tao pulled out a sword from the guard beside him and placed it across Qin Wan's neck.
Lu Ze let go of Qin Wan and walked to Qi Yuning's side.
A deep male voice sounded, "Huang Tao, do you dare?!"
A middle-aged man in armor came over.
Qi Yuning looked over and saw the Huang family guards fighting with the guards brought by the man in the courtyard outside the door. After seeing the middle-aged man's appearance clearly, Qi Yuning felt that Huang Tao's head was full of green light!
This middle-aged man looks exactly like Huang Fei!
Huang Tao laughed sarcastically and said, "Rui'er's mother, I am so ashamed of you!"
Huang Tao's sword pierced Qin Wan's neck, and blood spurted out.
Qi Yuning realized that everything went dark in front of her eyes. It was Lu Ze who covered her eyes. Qi Yuning held Lu Ze's hands with both hands and moved them away from her eyes.
Huang Tao stabbed Huang Fei's abdomen with his sword again, "Rui'er, Daddy has avenged you!"
The middle-aged man who came in shouted loudly and walked in with a sword.
Lu Ze protected Qi Yuning behind him, and Huang Tao fought with the man for several rounds.
Seeing that no one came forward to help, Lu Yun picked up the dagger that Man Niang had just thrown away and stabbed it straight into the heart of the middle-aged man who looked similar to Huang Fei!
Lu Yun coughed twice, looked at Lu Ze and said, "Brother, aren't you going to help Governor Huang?"
Lu Ze thought that Huang Tao would prefer to deal with the Qin family himself rather than have them help him.
Huang Tao saw the middle-aged man in front of him fall to the ground and sit on the ground, crying and laughing, laughing at his own stupidity.
Huang Tao took out the military token from his neck with his bloody hands, "Princess Qi, I'll give this military token to you."
Qi Yuning saw the military token and asked, "General Huang?"
Huang Tao said: "I never thought of stopping the Qi family. I believe in the loyalty of the Qi family army."
Huang Tao looked at Shen Qian again and said, "Brother Shen, Han'er is still young. I'll ask you to take care of Han'er in the future."
Huang Tao saw several of his trusted men rushing over and ordered them, "From now on, you will listen to Princess Qi's orders!"
Qi Yuning felt something was wrong and tried to snatch the sword from Huang Tao's hand, but Huang Tao took the lead and put the sword across his own neck, and the blood splattered all over Qi Yuning.
There were corpses all over the room. Qi Yuning stood there in a daze, holding the blood-stained military token in his hand.
Lu Ze stepped forward and hugged Qi Yuning and said, "First give the order to open the city gate and let the Qi family army in. No more innocent people should die."
Qi Yuning raised the tiger talisman and ordered Huang Tao's men, "Open the city gate and welcome the Qi family army in."
"yes!"
"Nian'er, Nian Nian!" Ning Wen's anxious voice came.
Qi Yuning watched Shen Nian faint in Ning Wen's arms, and repeatedly said to Lu Yun: "What are you standing there for, go find a doctor!"
Lu Yun didn't stand there any longer and went to find a doctor.
Qi Yuninglian and Ning Wen helped Shen Nian back to her room. The doctor arrived a quarter of an hour later and gave Shen Nian an injection before she woke up.
Shen Nian opened her eyes a crack, and tears flowed out, "Husband... I didn't know that my husband had done all these things for me, and I have been blaming him wrongly for the past year... Husband..."
Ning Wen held Shen Nian in her arms and said, “Nian Nian.”
Qi Yuning looked uncomfortable, and after leaving Shen Nian's house, he looked at Lu Ze and Lu Yun who were waiting in the courtyard, and sighed.
Qi Yuning said, "What is this? The funerals of Huang Jiedushi, Huang Rui, and Bai Manniang will be held in three days. We should help them. Han'er is still young, and Shen Nian is probably too sad to care about the funeral... Alas."
Lu Ze nodded and said, "Yes."
Lu Yun looked inside the house and said, "Since she is already ill, I won't seek revenge for the slap she gave me."
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze changed into clean clothes without blood stains.
He went to the city gate to welcome Qi Yu'an in.
When Qi Yu'an entered the city gate, he saw Qi Yuning, who was dressed simply, riding on a horse, so he rode up to her and asked, "Sister, are you okay?"
Qi Yuning sighed and said, "Alas, it's hard to put it into words. Let's talk slowly while we walk."
On the way back to the Huang Mansion, Qi Yu'an could only sigh as he listened to what Qi Yuning said about the right and wrong of the Huang Mansion.
Qi Yuning said to Qi Yu’an: “Huang Rui’s death was unjust but he deserved it. He only cared about Shen Nian, but let another woman get hurt because of him.
Bai Manniang didn't kill him after all. In fact, when Lu Ze and I went to look for her last night, I think she was struggling with whether to tell the truth. She told us about the grudge between Huang Rui and the Qin family. I believe she really wanted to avenge Huang Rui."
Qi Yu'an said: "She shouldn't have died."
Qi Yuning sighed and said, "Indeed, it's such a pity for her."
Qi Yu'an and Qi Yuning went to the Huang Mansion, walked into the lobby of the Huang Mansion and paid homage to Huang Tao and his son Huang Rui.
After hearing a shrill cry, I saw a woman in plain white clothes with a dull and haggard face kneeling on the side, crying heartbreakingly.
Qi Yu'an recognized her and said, "You are my sister Nian, right?"
Shen Nian looked up at Qi Yu'an and said, "Greetings, Prince Qi."
Qi Yu'an said, "My condolences. Qin Zhen has already led his troops to Longzhou City. The funeral should be held sooner rather than later."
Shen Nian looked at the coffin in the hall and said in grief: "Everything has been taken into consideration for the overall situation. I will listen to you in everything."
Qi Yuning stepped forward to support Shen Nian and said, “You are still sick, why don’t you go back to your room and rest?”
Shen Nian looked pale, and his condition was really bad.
Chen Nian looked at Huang Rui's coffin in the hall and said, "Princess, let me spend more time with my husband. Thinking about my misunderstanding of him over the past year, I really can't forgive myself. Even before he died, I still blamed him..."
Qi Yuning advised, "Huang Rui has been hiding this from you, but it's not your fault. You still have Han'er with you, so you should take good care of yourself. Huang Rui tried his best to protect you when he was alive, and he must have hoped that you would live well. Don't cry too much, your health is more important."
Shen Nian leaned on Qi Yuning's shoulder and cried out in extreme grief. Qi Yuning had no choice but to pat Shen Nian's back gently to comfort her.
Lu Yun was also annoyed when he heard the woman crying and said, "That's right, you are crying so desperately even though you are sick. The death of your husband is not a big deal!
Didn't your stepmother lose her husband? Didn't she live a good life after remarrying? You cried so hard, it will be difficult for her to remarry after you cry yourself sick!"
As soon as Lu Yun finished speaking, he received two slaps on his bald head. One slap was from Lu Ze, which made him dizzy.
Another palm strike was from Qi Yuan. Lu Yun staggered and felt even more dizzy. He closed his eyes and passed out.
If Qi Yuning hadn't seen Lu Yun faint, he would have wanted to step forward and slap Lu Yun's bald head!
