Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains

"Plotting to usurp the throne, I think you are the one plotting to usurp the throne? We have just returned from the victory in Xining, why don't you open the city gates to let us in? Is there some shameful conspiracy in the capital city, trying to silence the people of the world?"

Lu Ziren did not give the eunuch a chance to slander him and directly killed the old eunuch with a sword.

According to the news Lu Ziren received, the city of Kyoto was indeed controlled by the Sixth Prince, and even the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were placed under house arrest. The Sixth Prince did not want to bear the infamy of killing his father and brother, and he wanted to ascend to the supreme throne legitimately, so he changed his usual attitude.

Of course this is the most ideal situation. He prefers this.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict was fake, and was a subordinate of the Sixth Prince. His purpose was to seize the military power in Lu Ziren's hands and prevent Lu Ziren from entering Kyoto. Once he successfully obtained the abdication letter written by the Emperor, he would go all the way to the end and kill the Emperor even if the Emperor was unwilling. At that time, no matter whether he recognized it or not, he would be the emperor.

No one along the way told Xia Yingying what was going on in the mansion. She also asked Lu Ziren many times what the situation was like at home.

Lu Ziren said, "Don't worry about the family. I have already sent people to move them out of the mansion in advance. The Sixth Prince also went to catch them, but he didn't catch them. However, some things in the mansion have been destroyed."

The prince naturally managed to hide successfully when the incident happened.

Until now, Xia Yingying became even more worried when she saw this situation.

"Where are they now? I'm so worried about them." Xia Yingying couldn't help but tears welled up in her eyes.

"We can't enter the capital right now. I still have things to do, so I'll have to inconvenience you to stay here for the time being. The children are safe, don't worry, I'll send someone to pick them up in a bit."

Lu Ziren knew that if he just opened his mouth and told Xia Yingying that the children were safe and not in danger, Xia Yingying would definitely not be at all reassured, and might even have trouble sleeping at night.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing. Lu Ziren decided to let Xia Yingying meet them. The children must miss Xia Yingying.

With Lu Ziren's words, Xia Yingying was relieved. "Okay, Lu Ziren, you must come back safely."

"Ah."

After Lu Ziren gave Xia Yingying instructions, he led a small team to sneak into the capital.

The remaining troops began to station outside the capital. Xia Yingying was waiting here anxiously, and so was Qin Qingfeng. Since there was nothing to do if he followed Lu Ziren in, he stayed here like Xia Yingying.

Besides, he also wanted to meet Song Ruguo as soon as possible because the longing for her was too painful.

About an hour later, a horse-drawn carriage came wobbling over.

When the carriage was still a small dot in the distance, several children poked their heads out of the windows and shouted to Xia Yingying with bared teeth, "Mom."

Xia Yingying was also anxiously looking at the road to see if there were any passing vehicles.

Qin Qingfeng was also walking around anxiously.

When she heard the child's cry, Xia Yingying stood up with a start, spread her legs, and ran towards the carriage. Qin Qingfeng also followed behind Xia Yingying and ran after her.

When the soldiers outside heard someone shouting, they did not rush in like the villagers in the countryside. Instead, they lined up in an orderly manner and sat on the roadside to rest, one by one, like neatly arranged stones.

The coachman knew that his masters were anxious, and he kept cracking the whip in his hand.

"Faster, Master, faster."

The urging voice never stopped ringing in his ears. He could only whip the whip even harder, but he did not expect to be questioned by his master.

"Why do you keep hitting him? He must be running faster since he's in so much pain." Lu Yuxuan asked in surprise.

The driver cracked his whip less frequently.

Even so, the carriage was still moving very fast.

Xia Yingying met the children, and before the carriage stopped, Lu Haojie jumped off the carriage in a hurry.

When Xia Yingying saw that scene, her heart trembled, "Haojie, be careful, slow down, you are so anxious, what if you hurt your leg?"

But because they hadn't seen each other for such a long time, Xia Yingying didn't want to criticize Lu Haojie harshly when they just met. But because Lu Haojie did something wrong, Xia Yingying spoke in a harsh tone.

Lu Haojie rushed into Xia Yingying's arms like a little cannonball, "Mom, I missed you so much, you are finally back."

A child with a mother is like a piece of candy, a child without a mother is like a piece of grass. He didn't understand what this sentence meant before. It was not until this period of long separation from Xia Yingying that he truly realized the true meaning of this sentence.

Xia Yingying hugged Lu Haojie and patted him on the back, "I miss you, too."

Song Ruyi, Aunt Sun, Liu Qingyao, Lu Haoran, Lu Yuwei, Lu Yurou and Lu Yuxuan, who were sitting in the carriage, also stood beside Xia Yingying after the carriage stopped.

"Long time no see, you really missed me." Xia Yingying repeatedly expressed her longing for you to the children.

While watching Xia Yingying and his family loving each other, Liu Qingyao was also looking for Li Guoliang in the crowd.

But after searching for a long time, they still couldn't find it, so Liu Qingyao asked Qin Qingfeng. After Song Ruyi got off the carriage, Qin Qingfeng kept staring at Song Ruyi. Song Ruyi naturally felt it, but because it was in public now, if she Qin Qingfeng did something sticky, he wouldn't be able to get it out. Now it can be said that the person is half buried in the ground, and there is no need to do those things anymore.

"Doctor Qin, do you know where Li Guoliang went?"

"He followed Ziren into the capital. Ruyi Qingyao, Ziren, Guoliang and I have discussed that once things here are settled, we will hold a wedding together. What do you think?"

Qin Qingfeng originally planned to tell Song Ruyi privately that the wedding had to be moved, and it wasn't just their couple, there were other people involved as well, so he also asked Liu Qingyao.

When Song Ruyi and Liu Qingyao heard Qin Qingfeng's words, they both showed very surprised expressions.

Aunt Sun was extremely happy. Although Liu Qingyao was his goddaughter, she was like his own biological daughter during this period. Liu Qingyao was getting older, and he had always been worried about Liu Qingyao's lifelong affairs. Before, when he was assisting the general alone, he was not clear about Liu Qingyao's love life situation.

But because of the changes in the capital, Liu Qingyao was also approached by the General's Mansion. During this time, he knew that Liu Qingyao was in love with a man named Li Guoliang. He also asked the people in the General's Mansion about Li Guoliang's character and confirmed that he was a trustworthy person.

I had no idea when I would be able to attend the wedding, but I didn't expect to hear such explosive news.

"Qingyao, that's great. I don't have to worry about you anymore." Aunt Sun said excitedly, pulling Liu Qingyao.

The corners of Liu Qingyao's mouth twitched. "Godmother."

My face and neck turned red in an instant.

Xia Yingying kept observing Liu Qingyao's expression.

Seeing Liu Qingyao in this situation, I knew what was going on.

"But why do General Lu and Yingying want to hold another wedding?"

In Aunt Sun's opinion, a wedding only needs to be held once.

When it comes to this, Song Ruyi is a little unhappy. "It's not that they didn't even complete the wedding ceremony before, and Ziren went to the battlefield, leaving the child to my Yingying."

"That's the one that should be held."

Then everyone started talking about the wedding again.
