This person had already revealed his flaws; his steps and moves were exactly the same as Chen He's! ?
Li Qingluo was taught by her personally, so how could he not see it?
Li Qingluo rushed forward with all his might, trying to tear off the man's mask, but the man suddenly pointed his toes and flew backwards.
She disappeared into the darkness, leaving only one sentence: "My dear disciple, I am not Chen He. If you want to know the truth, in ten days, if you dare to go to the charity cemetery alone, I will tell you the truth!"
After saying that, the entire Yueming Garden instantly returned to silence.
The original swaying black shadow and the sound of the wind disappeared in an instant.
Li Qingluo stared at the darkness for a long time before picking up the lantern on the ground.
When Que'er and Nanny Deng came back panting, Li Qingluo had already helped Cui'er up.
Cui'er was acupunctured. Que'er and Madam Deng said with pale faces, "Young lady, just now, this servant and I seemed to have encountered a maze. There was only white fog before our eyes. Apart from the cries of women and babies, we heard nothing. We couldn't get out and couldn't see anything else. It was really weird!"
"Miss, how are you? Why did Cui'er faint?"
Li Qingluo's face was cold: "It seems that she is coming for me alone."
"Tomorrow, I'm going to see my grandmother."
The next day.
After Li Qingluo told everyone what happened in Yueming Garden last night, everyone was shocked.
"Why is the girl... different from what we saw?"
"Did the girl really fight with that guy?"
"The girl's sword was indeed found in the grass in the garden. She wouldn't have gone crazy and thrown it around, would she?"
Cui'er's face was pale and she still felt the pain in her neck.
Yueming Garden is haunted, and it seems the ghost is quite serious!
Mrs. Pei immediately asked Nanny Zhang to go and find Chen He.
On the other hand, someone was sent to bring Aunt Lou over as well.
"That Concubine Lou just came to your Red Maple Pavilion to beg you, and then right after that, Yueming Garden, which had been quiet for so long, suddenly started causing trouble again. Is this really a coincidence?"
"If this person is really Shen He, I will never forgive her!"
Lou was soon brought to Jingci Hall.
She had never seen Madam Pei before, and she was already shaking with fear on the way here.
When she was brought to the hall, Aunt Lou couldn't speak clearly and could only lie on the ground and shiver.
"I, I am... old lady..."
Li Qingluo, who was sitting below Madam Pei, said, "Auntie Lou, Grandmother has a few words to ask you. You don't have to be afraid."
"If you truly have concerns about the Third Miss being taken to Madam for upbringing, I can help you. But the prerequisite is that you must not hide anything we ask you today!"
Aunt Lou knew it clearly.
She was able to return to Jinling thanks to the help of these two girls.
Moreover, in this house now, the second young lady and the old lady are not under the control of the mistress and the head of the general's mansion. The second young lady is the apple of the old lady's eye. If she says anything, perhaps the old lady will really not sit idly by!
Aunt Lou kowtowed heavily and replied haltingly, "Yes. I will obey you, young lady..."
Old Madam Pei nodded to Li Qingluo. Luo'er was becoming more and more decent in his words and deeds, which naturally made her feel very relieved.
Looking at Lou, Madam Pei's brows knitted together again. "How dare you, Lou! Since the head of the family wants to bring the third daughter to the mistress for education, this is a blessing you, a concubine, can't hope for. Why are you crying and wailing, acting like you're trying to stop it and are terrified?"
"How dare you go to the Second Young Lady and ask for help? You knew she had a distant relationship with her mother after returning home, yet you still wanted her to speak up for you. What are your intentions?"
Lou was so frightened by Mrs. Pei's words that she broke out in a sweat.
She could only beg hurriedly, "Old Madam, I dare not! I am really desperate, so I dare to ask the Second Young Lady for help. Otherwise, even if I had ten thousand guts, I would not dare to offend the Second Young Lady!"
"I am afraid that the third young lady will die for no reason like the daughter born to Zheng. I am also confused..."
Madam Pei: "What are you talking about? Could it be that Zheng's daughter who died young has some connection with Qu?"
"Lou, you better think carefully before you speak! If it's true, I can forgive you. But if I find out that you lied even a word, and dared to slander the mistress and throw dirty water on her, I will kill you!"
Lou had also heard of Madam Pei's reputation.
Who wouldn’t be afraid of the first famous female general of Daliang State?
Just thinking about her daughter, she trembled and had to say, "Old Madam, if even one word I said today is false, I will be struck by lightning!"
Li Qingluo: "Then tell me carefully. Speak clearly, word by word."
Lou: "Yes."
At this time, the rest of the servants in the house, including Que'er, had already retreated.
Only three people remained in the room before Lou spoke slowly, "Back then, Zheng was so favored that even Madam, the principal wife, couldn't stand up straight in front of her."
"If Madam uses the name of the principal wife to teach Zheng a lesson, Master may not say anything out of respect, but he will turn around and favor Zheng even more. Over time, Madam will get less and less, and she will become wary and tolerant."
"Although Zheng is not a flamboyant person, Madam is at least a daughter of an official family. How can she endure being subordinate to a concubine for the rest of her life?"
"So, after Zheng gave birth to a daughter, Madam was anxious to give Zheng some of her favor."
"That was when the maid was pushed out by Madam."
Lou wiped away her tears as she spoke.
Although everyone said that she took advantage of the lady's pregnancy to climb into bed, in fact, if it weren't for the lady's tacit consent and suggestion, how could she, the maid who had followed the lady since she was a child, dare to do this?
"It's a pity that no matter how many beauties Madam has, Master still prefers Concubine Zheng. Back then, Concubine Zheng was the only one he loved, and that was no joke."
"My first child was aborted by Madam because she saw that I was useless and that sharing her favors was not working. It was from that time that I began to fear Madam's cruelty."
"When Zheng's daughter was four years old, she became pregnant again."
"Madam used the excuse that she wanted Zheng to take good care of her pregnancy. If she could give Master another son, Master would feel fulfilled. So she took this opportunity to bring Zheng's daughter to her to raise."
"Just a few days ago, the daughter suddenly fell into the water."
"By the time we fished it out, it was already breathing more out than in."
"Later, although he was saved, he was left with a chronic illness. When winter came, he only lasted a month before he died of a high fever..."
Lou wiped her tears and said, "Zheng is really pitiful. She failed to protect her sister and became ill as a result."
"In the end, she couldn't even keep the baby in her belly."
