Madam Deng smiled and said, "She has no money and has lost her status as the legitimate daughter of a general. How can she expect to live well in the inner chambers of a royal palace?"
"Except for Cao Rou'er who always targeted her, the rest of the concubines and side concubines all had conflicts with her."
"Luying said that the princess punished her by making her kneel in the yard for two hours yesterday. When she got up, her legs were swollen."
Li Qingluo: "Prince Yun didn't protect her?"
Matron Deng: "She said she pretended not to see it, but Liu Qingzhu actually cried bitterly after returning home. Prince Yun had originally turned towards her courtyard, but when he heard the crying, he hurried away again."
"Also, Luying said that the Liu family members went to Prince Yun's mansion several times to look for Liu Qingzhu, but Liu Qingzhu ignored them all and just had the palace guards drive them away with a fierce look and threaten them. Only then did the Liu family members temporarily become more obedient."
Li Qingluo: "She thought she had done her utmost by asking Prince Yun to rescue the Liu family from prison. However, the Liu family are all leeches, and she is their own daughter. In the eyes of the Liu family, marrying into the palace of a dignified prince is like falling into a golden nest. How could they let her go so easily?"
"It's just that they can't suck blood from her for the time being, so they might turn their attention to me again."
Aunt Deng opened her mouth in astonishment, then filled with anger: "How can they be so shameless? What should you do, young lady?"
Li Qingluo picked up a chess piece at hand and accurately flicked it towards the crow that had landed outside the window. "Sui'er, it's time to go home."
After thinking deeply, Nanny Deng nodded slightly.
Que'er came in holding the crow and said, "Girl, someone actually sent you a flying letter."
Li Qingluo:???
She just thought the crow was an eyesore, but it turned out to be Fei Xin?
Que'er took the letter tied to Crow's leg and handed it to Li Qingluo: "Girl, please take a look."
Li Qingluo unfolded it and took a look: If you want to find your brother, why don’t you come and ask me for help?
Li Qingluo held the letter tightly in his hand.
She guessed instantly who sent the letter.
Who else could it be?
He would play tricks in their general's mansion, disguise himself as a girl and go to the girl's yard in the general's mansion to impersonate her. He was the incense master of the Lotus Sect and the leader of the four Dharma protectors. He also knew that she had a brother in this world, Zheng Lingzhou!
Did he know that he was asking his grandmother to find the surviving child of Aunt Zheng?
Aunt Deng: "Miss? Are you okay?"
Li Qingluo looked at the crow, thought for a moment, and said, "Lock it up."
She won't go to see Zheng Lingzhou.
As for her 'brother', if she can find him, then she will look for him. If she can't find him, then if he never comes back in this life, then that's fine.
Li Qingluo burned the letter before turning the conversation back to Liu Qingzhu: "Luying sent this message back, what exactly is it about?"
Matron Deng: "She said Liu Qingzhu wanted to see the eldest son, or the mistress. She also asked Luying to find a way to contact old acquaintances in the mansion."
Li Qingluo immediately guessed what Li Qingzhu wanted to do.
"She was hurriedly carried into Prince Yun's mansion, and she didn't take any of the money she had saved in the General's Mansion with her. So, is she planning to come back for her dowry?"
Aunt Deng: "Miss, you guessed right! She thinks it's all because she has no money, so she is trying every possible way to come back and secretly meet someone she thinks still cares about her!"
Li Qingluo: "Ever since Liu Qingzhu was expelled from the General's Mansion, Li Kechuan has never left Lancang Courtyard. Whether he wants to reflect on himself or live in peace, I don't care."
"However, if he wants to let go of the feud between him and me, there is no way."
Aunt Deng: "Young lady, what do you mean...?"
Li Qingluo: "If she wants to see him, let her see him. Please make arrangements and don't let anyone else see him for the time being."
Nanny Deng was a little confused about what the girl was thinking.
"Girl, do you really want her to take the money away again?"
Li Qingluo: "She wants to see someone, and she wants to take away the Li family's money, but these are two different things."
Nanny Deng then smiled and said, "Yes, I understand."
Li Qingluo's eyes fell on the post, and she suddenly paused: "Wait!"
Li Qingluo picked up the invitation and flipped through it. "On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the Imperial Palace will hold a banquet. All officials of the third rank and above and their families are invited to attend the banquet and celebrate the New Year together. Has Liu Qingzhu ever been included in the banquet in previous years?"
Nanny Deng shook her head. "It seems that in previous years, only the noble families of marquises, princes, and the like were qualified to receive this invitation."
Li Qingluo was a little surprised when he heard this because he had never experienced this before.
"So, this is the first time the General's Mansion has received this post?"
Matron Deng: "Yes. But don't be afraid, young lady. When the old lady was a young lady, and later when she became the only female general in the world, she had been to the palace several times. With the old lady around, you won't make any mistakes even if you go to the palace."
This was not what Li Qingluo was worried about.
She was just curious about how Liu Qingzhu would react if she knew about this.
She was a concubine, even a concubine of a prince, but according to etiquette, she was not qualified to enter the palace on that day, right?
But Li Qingluo always had a feeling at this moment, maybe this time, Liu Qingzhu would not miss the night banquet.
"Let Luying take it easy first, and let Liu Qingzhu hold back for a while."
“When people are pushed into a desperate situation, they will always do something surprising.”
Li Qingluo was already looking forward to what Liu Qingzhu would do next.
"Once the bright moon falls to earth, it is no more than dirt. But after all, dirt can be used to fertilize the land and still be of some use."
"It all depends on what attitude those nobles in the palace will have towards our General's Mansion."
