They've probably all been arrested one by one, their property confiscated, and their houses sealed off. A few days later, the entire Qiao family will be executed. This news will spread throughout the capital, drawing both condemnation and jubilation from everyone. After all, treason is an unforgivable crime.
The Qingfeng Plains, with its 30,000 hard-trained soldiers, are about to fall into the hands of others.
This is so shocking; just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.
Qiao Dameng was completely lost in thought, his eyes vacant, and he had lost the strength to speak. This was the first girl he had ever fallen in love with, and he had given her all his heart and passion, only to find it all a farce.
All he wants now is a good night's sleep, hoping that when he wakes up, it will all be just a nightmare.
Du Qinglan was still waiting for him in that small courtyard. A stove was burning beside her, and she was either embroidering or reading a book. It was so quiet.
“I’d better go take a look.” Da Meng also stood up, his lips trembling. “I’ll see her off.”
He staggered out without waiting for the Qiao family to speak.
Qiao Lian'er ordered Da Meng's close guards to follow.
This time, the Qiao family was anything but happy. They had resolved the crisis, and the perpetrators were about to be punished—a truly gratifying outcome.
But they were both angry and upset.
Because of her sincere heart, she was mocked; because her hopes for a wonderful marriage with Da Meng were all dashed.
Even if we don't say it's a big deal, they still find it hard to accept this.
This is why, despite Du Qinglan's heinous crimes, Qiao Lian'er chose to give her a chance halfway through.
Seeing her family like this, she felt very heavy-hearted.
Lady Lü pressed her hand to her chest, saying, "My poor Da Meng, my poor Da Meng!" As she spoke, her face was already covered in tears.
"Everyone, disperse and go do what you need to do." Qiao Lian'er took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, only to realize that the tea had gone cold sometime earlier.
It's time for her to move on to the next step.
When people gather together like this, the atmosphere becomes dull, and over time, this can negatively impact everyone's physical and mental health.
It's better to focus your energy on other matters and let bygones be bygones.
"Lian'er, is there anything else?" Old Mrs. Qiao sensed something was wrong.
"The people who did this were not only Du Qinglan, but also the First Prince, Pang Da, and Deputy General Chen."
"Therefore, Du Qinglan is not the only one who should be punished."
"Uncle, Third Uncle, send more people to the fiefdom, and do it quickly."
"Brother Dacheng, go find Master Pei and ask him to send more Imperial Guards."
Having successfully resolved this crisis, the Qiao family was completely convinced of Qiao Lian'er's abilities.
I never questioned a word she said or any of her instructions; I simply followed them without question. There was absolutely no mistake.
Then Qiao Lian'er first sent his eldest and third uncles to their fiefdoms, and the two immediately began to mobilize their best cavalry.
The eldest prince searched along the way, and at this moment, the inner army headquarters came into view in the distance.
Although he was heading in this direction, he also had to put on an act and couldn't go directly to the military headquarters, otherwise his purpose would be too obvious.
Da Meng quickly stepped into the alley and almost ran into the courtyard.
"Lan'er".
Even though he hated her to the core, he still blurted out her nickname.
