Qing Yangzi gave a wry smile.
"Back then, my entire Chen family was plotted against by Minister Qu. To protect me from the disaster, my parents and brothers, having anticipated it, resolutely sent me to Qingsong Monastery."
"Over the years, if it weren't for Your Highness's care, my father, brothers, mother, and sister-in-law would have surely died on the road to exile..."
"I, your Highness, will always be grateful for your kindness and will fight to the bitter end to redress the injustice done to my Chen family."
"So no matter what suffering I endure, I have no regrets."
"But Twelve Lady... Twelve Lady is innocent!!"
"If she was really murdered by Princess Qinyu, even if she was a princess of two countries, the ministers would kill her with their own hands!"
Sad tears flowed down Qingyangzi's face.
If it were the previous Prince Su, he would definitely not be able to understand Qing Yangzi's strong feelings.
But now, although he still felt that he was not sober enough, he did not have any intention of ridicule in his heart.
Duan Rongshi: "This matter has not yet been fully resolved. The Pei family, Old Duke Pei, and Pei San are all incorruptible."
"This matter is of no small importance. This prince will definitely find out the real culprit and reveal the truth to Pei Twelve Mother."
…
Li Qingluo sat up in bed in shock in the middle of the night.
"What kind of person is this Princess Qinyu?"
Li Qingluo originally thought that she was in love with Prince Su, so when she sent her back to the general's mansion that time, she warned her not to get close to Prince Su again.
But now it seems that how sincere she is?
At the night banquet in the palace, why did she push Pan Li into the lake and even kill her to silence her?
And was her action in the palace that night related to Nan Jia's death?
If the Maitreya poison that Nan Jia suffered before her death was caused by Princess Qinyu, then who did she use in the Pei Mansion to actually kill Nan Jia?
The faces of those people from the Pei family flashed through Li Qingluo's mind.
"Que'er, help me deliver a letter to the eldest daughter of the Pan family tomorrow!"
She wanted to go check on Pan Li.
Also, I must meet Yang Qinwu!
Que'er woke up rubbing his eyes, nodded, and fell asleep again.
However, the next day, before the invitation to the Pan family was even delivered, Nanny Deng came in with a sullen face and said, "Miss! The Qu family is so shameless! They actually brought the betrothal gifts and the matchmaker to the General's Mansion yesterday!"
Que'er: "What are they going to do?"
Aunt Deng: "What else can we do? Just now, someone we left in the mansion passed on the message that the Qu family is proposing marriage to our daughter on behalf of Xun brother!"
Que'er jumped up in anger: "Well, well, have the Master and his family agreed to the marriage?"
Madam Deng: "They said they agreed... Miss, the old lady already knows about this matter, and she is very angry now."
Li Qingluo was very calm.
"Then I'll go see my grandmother."
Li Qingluo came to see Mrs. Pei and saw that Mrs. Pei was drinking porridge.
Li Qingluo smiled and said, "Grandma, seeing that you are enjoying your meal, I feel relieved."
Madam Pei: "Humph! Do they think I'm dead? And they still want to decide your marriage!"
"I've grown old over the years, but being old doesn't mean I won't show my power!"
"How did I get poisoned? I know exactly what happened!"
"The Qu family, the beads on their abacus have jumped onto my face. How could I not know what they are thinking?"
"If I really die, your parents will indeed marry you off to the Qu family, but my Luo'er...how can Brother Xun be worthy of you?"
"What's more, the Qu family's viciousness has now been exposed. Even if I die, I will never throw you into that fire pit to suffer!"
"Don't worry, Luo'er. Grandmother is here. Even if the marriage is decided, she won't let you marry."
Li Qingluo: "Yes, Grandmother. With you in charge, I'm not afraid."
"Besides, Luo'er had already completely fallen out with the General's Mansion and my parents that night. Even if they arranged the marriage, if Luo'er didn't show up, could they really marry her off to a paper figurine?"
Li Qingluo smiled slightly, but thought in her heart: If the Qu and Li families could really do such a thing, she wouldn't mind letting Xun Ge die quietly.
After comforting Madam Pei, Li Qingluo went out again.
Because of this interruption, I can't go to Pan's house today.
Li Qingluo went to the Zhenxiu Restaurant in a low-key manner.
She wanted to try her luck, but unexpectedly she actually met Yang Qinwu!
After all, he is a captain of the Imperial Guard. Why does he run to his own restaurant all day long as if he has nothing to do?
It was not until Li Qingluo saw Mei Shuang busying around and Yang Qinwu's eyes fell on Mei Shuang from time to time that Li Qingluo finally realized what was going on.
Li Qingluo smiled. "I see. Que'er, go and get Yang Qinwu here. I need to ask him what he means."
When Yang Qinwu pushed the door open and saw Li Qing lagging behind, a trace of discomfort flashed across his face.
He seemed to know that this day would come sooner or later, but Li Qingluo suppressed his laughter and asked, "Don't worry, if you can really get Mei Shuang to agree, I will return her indenture contract to her."
Yang Qinwu looked up at Li Qingluo in shock.
"Can……"
But now that the slave has been freed, will the master still be at ease and trust her loyalty?
Li Qingluo: "I believe in my own judgment of people. For example, you, Lord Yang."
"Since I chose you to do that great thing, does that mean we are allies?"
Yang Qinwu bowed his head and said, "I do owe you a favor for this matter."
Li Qingluo: "In that case, Lord Yang, could you tell me what exactly happened at the palace banquet on the fifth night of the Lunar New Year, by the pond in front of Zhaohua Palace, when Miss Pan fell into the lake?"
