The real daughter died tragically and was reborn, and the whole family cried and begged for forgiven

Pei Qinghong's body stiffened violently.

He snorted, turned around and walked away.

Li Qingluo was thinking about one thing on the way back to the general's mansion.

When they were almost there, she asked Que'er, "When we left today, did you see a tall, thin man lingering behind the door?"

Que'er shook her head: "Miss, I really didn't see him. What's the matter? Do you know this person?"

Li Qingluo: "If I'm not seeing things, he's the blacksmith..."

But how could the blacksmith appear in the Pei family villa?

Last time, he stopped her on the street and said that his master wanted to see her.

Of course Li Qingluo wouldn't be stupid enough to follow him.

At that time, she suspected that the iron shop was connected with the Lotus Sect.

She had never met that person, but it was obvious that when he knew that she was from the Li family, he no longer intended to have any further contact with her.

What good intentions could there be in suddenly saying he wanted to see her again?

Later, fortunately, she did not have any further contact with the iron shop, otherwise how would she explain to Prince Su?

Moreover, Prince Su is now a big deal to her.

Putting aside the issue of the pattern, is there really any connection between the iron shop and the Lotus Sect?

I heard that when Prince Su returned from Qishan, the iron shop was already deserted, which clearly showed that they had taken precautions in advance.

But if he is innocent, why would he run away?

If the blacksmith shop is related to the Lotus Sect, then why is the blacksmith now appearing in the Pei family villa?

When Pei Sanlang appeared in the charity cemetery, Li Qingluo guessed that he was related to the power of the old prince.

I thought these were two different factions, but now...

If all these intricate things are related...

Li Qingluo couldn't help but shiver.

She had a hunch that the relationship between Pei Sanlang and the blacksmith shop was definitely not that simple.

At this moment, he actually felt a little regretful and asked him to handle the old Duke's affairs.

"Girl, look, there's someone at the door!"

Just as they were about to reach the gate of the general's mansion, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Que'er pushed the carriage door open a crack and looked out. "It's Liu Mian'er."

Liu Mian'er is the new concubine that Li Qingluo is looking for for his father Li Chaojing.

She has a clean family background, is young and beautiful, and is fresh and unmarried.

Although she is already twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, her beauty is not inferior to those young girls. On the contrary, because she has experienced a lot of worldly hardships, she is still alone and proud, so she has a unique and otherworldly charm.

At this moment, Liu Mian'er, dressed in plain clothes, was standing not far from the gate of the general's mansion with an umbrella. She had a cold and aloof temperament and was as beautiful as a painting.

"Girl, do you want to go over?"

asked Nanny Deng, who was driving the carriage in front.

Li Qingluo: "Don't worry, let's see what she's going to do."

A few days ago, after Li Qingluo had seen Liu Mian'er from afar, he asked Nanny Deng to secretly create opportunities for her and Li Chaojing to meet.

Li Qingluo hadn't paid attention to this matter in the past few days, but now that he happened to meet her, he wanted to take a look.

It seems that these two have met before?

Just as he was thinking about it, a servant came out of the mansion.

"Miss Liu, our master is not at home. You should come back another day."

On this very cold day with snow still falling, Liu Mian'er had obviously come to ask to see Li Chaojing on purpose.

Madam Deng: "Young lady, if the master is really not here, why would this servant go all over the mansion to look for him?"

The doorman knows best whether the master is at home or not.

If he hadn't been there from the beginning, he would have been sent away long ago.

Therefore, Li Chaojing deliberately avoided meeting Liu Mian'er.

Moreover, I'm afraid that everyone in Jinling City now knows that Li Chaojing was carried out of the palace yesterday.

How could someone go out again in the snow after just resting for a night?

Even though he is a military officer, he is not young anymore.

Li Qingluo couldn't help but laugh: "He's playing hard to get."

Aunt Deng: “…”

Girl, you are truly the master's biological daughter.

Seeing Liu Mian'er shivering from the cold, Madam Deng felt sorry for her and asked, "Should we help her?"

Li Qingluo: "Help? Can I help her forever? Whether it succeeds or not depends on her own ability."

"If we can't even win him over, even if we take her directly into the palace, how long can she survive in the secluded house? Not to mention competing for favor and having children."

Nanny Deng felt that what the girl said made a lot of sense, so she stopped refutation.

Li Qingluo reached out to catch the fine, falling snow. "My father only appears to be a gentleman. Do you really think he can endure it? Such a beautiful girl suddenly barged into his boring and dull life. He would only be tempted by the taste and would hesitate a thousand times. How could he really let her go?"

"Don't worry, he will come out."

Just as he finished speaking, Que'er saw a piece of clothing passing by behind the door.

"Miss, I have seen the master!"

Li Qingluo also saw it.

Li Chaojing was supported by someone and stood inside the door, with half of his body exposed, and he was clearly looking at Liu Mian'er.

Liu Mian'er was not stupid, she knew that people just didn't want to see her.

He felt in his sleeve and took out a bag of silver and handed it to the servant.

"Actually, I came to see General Li today for no other reason. A few days ago, I was harassed and humiliated by some bastards, and it was the general who rescued me."

"But that day, I soiled the general's clothes, shoes, and socks. So, I have always felt guilty about it."

"This money...is a token of my love. I hope you can help me return it to the general as compensation for his losses that day."

From afar, Liu Mian'er's voice drifted over, faint and almost imperceptible.

Madam Deng: "It's so cold, and Liu Mian'er is only wearing a patched, thin cotton coat, yet she still managed to come up with some silver to compensate the master. What man wouldn't feel pity and compassion upon seeing this?"

It seems that she has some tricks and knows what kind of tricks men are most susceptible to.

Sure enough, Li Qingluo saw Li Chaojing clench his fists hard.

The servant looked embarrassed.

He turned around and glanced inside the door, then would never dare to accept the bag of silver.

He forcefully stuffed it back into Liu Mian'er's hand and said, "Miss, please don't embarrass me. Our master won't care about this matter. Miss, if you have the chance, you should thank the master in person."

After saying this, the servant didn't dare to stay any longer and turned around and ran back.

Liu Mian'er was obviously disappointed.

She looked at the bag of silver in her hand with a distraught look. When she turned around and was about to leave, the servant suddenly turned back and called her.

"Miss, this is a token from our master. He said it's really inconvenient for him to see you, but he knows your feelings. Please take care of yourself. It's winter now, so please wear more cotton clothes. Otherwise, if you get sick, your family will be worried."

Liu Mian'er reached out to take the jade pendant with red eyes.

"I... I have no family left..."

After saying this, she bowed slightly, and disappeared into the snowy sky, feeling lonely and desolate...

When Li Qingluo looked inside the door again, Li Chaojing had disappeared.

Li Qingluo: "My father is pretending to be a good guy. It seems that he needs me, his daughter, to give him a push."
