Little did she know that as soon as she spread the rumor, Princess Yan Yang came before the emperor and sued the Qiao family.
Qiao was just a woman and a child, but she was able to know the news about the generals in the army. Qiao represented the Lu family, which meant that the Lu family had connections and was in violation of the emperor's taboo.
The emperor severely denounced Qiao and dismissed General Lu from his post.
General Lu took two years of sick leave, but unexpectedly lost his official position.
He took the long sword and went to find Qiao. Qiao was puzzled. Isn't it normal for relatives in the army to communicate with each other and know each other's safety?

When they passed by, Gu Wanru smelled the scent of powder on Lu Guangzhi and raised the corners of her mouth unconsciously.
From now on, no matter how hard Lu Guangzhi tries, it will be in vain.
