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

Princess Qinyu stood aside with tears in her eyes, looking at Duan Rongshi, as if she wanted to go forward but didn't dare to get too close.

But she looked at him with a wronged look on her face and her hands trembling slightly.

Duan Rongshi didn't even lift the gauze curtain, and looked at Qin Yu through the curtain: "Why are you here?"

Qin Yu's eyes were red. "Cousin's life or death is unknown. How could I not come out to look for you in person? But seeing that my cousin is safe, I am relieved."

Sha Lei said, "Your Highness, Princess Qinyu and I have not seen each other for the past two days and have been searching for you everywhere in the mountains."

"We also encountered people who were probably from the Lotus Sect. Her Royal Highness is a brave woman and she shot and killed several of them."

Duan Rongshi: "I understand. Qinyu, there is something I want to entrust to you."

Qin Yu felt relieved when she saw that Prince Su was safe and sound.

When he heard that he still needed his help with something, he immediately agreed without even asking what it was.

Li Qingluo, who was watching the excitement on the side, was secretly thinking in his heart: When I first met Princess Qinyu that day, she was clearly as majestic and imposing as a man, but when she was next to His Royal Highness Prince Su, she completely turned into a timid girl.

But suddenly, Prince Su pointed his finger at himself.

"By chance, this prince and Miss Li have fallen into trouble together this time."

"She helped me, but I cannot harm her daughter's reputation. I also ask Qin Yu to help me personally send Miss Li back to the General's Mansion and keep this matter secret."

If everyone in Jinling City knew that Li Qingluo and Prince Su fell off a cliff together and were missing for a day and two nights, Li Qingluo's innocence would indeed be completely destroyed.

Qin Yu's face froze slightly when she heard this.

But she had already agreed, so she naturally couldn't go back on her word.

So he could only bite the bullet and agree again: "Yes, Qinyu knows, cousin, don't worry."

Prince Su looked deeply at Li Qingluo through the gauze curtain, then waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

Li Qingluo naturally had no objection to this matter.

He even felt a little grateful for Prince Su's consideration today, as his rescue of him was not in vain.

But suddenly, an unfriendly look came towards him. Li Qingluo gritted his teeth and lifted the gauze curtain, nodding friendlyly at Princess Qinyu.

General's Mansion.

During the past two days, no one in the general's mansion dared to even breathe.

Ever since the seventeenth day, when news came of a rebellion outside the city, and Prince Su went out of the city to eliminate the rebels but then reported that he had disappeared and his whereabouts were unknown, almost everyone in the entire Jinling City felt insecure.

That night, the girls from various families who were invited by Princess Nanping to go out of the city for horseback riding were safely sent home one by one late at night.

Only the eldest daughter of the general has not returned yet.

Although the General's Mansion kept the news a secret, the rumor still spread like wildfire.

Rumor has it that the robbers abducted many noble ladies that day, so the general's daughter did not return, she must have been poisoned.

"If only his life was lost, it would be fine. But if his innocence is lost... This general's mansion has been plagued by these scandals one after another. In my opinion, only when all the women in the family become nuns can peace be resolved."

"Don't talk nonsense. Isn't His Royal Highness Prince Su also missing?"

"You mean, they will disappear together?"

"Oh, absolutely impossible! These two people are completely unrelated. Even if they are both missing, there is no way they could be together!"

"Even though the eldest daughter of the Li family is now in her prime and has some of the aura of a general's daughter, she still thinks her life is too long to stand near His Royal Highness Prince Su."

Naturally, many of these rumors reached the ears of Mrs. Pei.

However, she didn't care what others said. She just asked Nanny Zhang to send people out day and night to continue searching for Li Qingluo's whereabouts.

"Have you searched all these places, up in the mountains, at the foot of the cliffs, on the steep cliffs, in tiger dens and wolf lairs?"

"Or maybe Luo'er was injured and hid in some farmer's house?"

"Have you looked at the hunters' houses on the mountain?"

Nanny Zhang just kept coming in and shaking her head.

Mrs. Pei's spirit was getting weaker day by day.

Nanny Deng and Que'er had been kneeling in Jingci Hall for a day and two nights. Old Madam Pei didn't want to see them at all, but they refused to let her go.

Every time Aunt Zhang came in, they would immediately straighten up their shaky bodies and look over.

But every time, Aunt Zhang just shook her head, causing them to collapse again and again.

The tear marks on Que'er's face have never dried.

"Grandma, if the girl is gone... please bury me next to her tomb. In my next life, I will be her maid... and serve her!"

"In this life, our fate as master and servant is too shallow..."

Aunt Deng scolded her: "Bah, what nonsense are you talking about? The girl will definitely be fine..."

At this moment, someone from the front yard ran to Jingci Hall to announce the news: "Madam, Madam—the girl is back, back!"

Madam Pei walked out quickly, supported by Nanny Zhang. "What did you say? But Luo'er is back?"

The servant said with joy, "Madam, the eldest daughter is back!"

Since Liu Qingzhu was expelled from the general's mansion, Li Qingluo has completely regained her status as the eldest daughter.

So now everyone in the general's mansion calls her the eldest lady.

"Princess Qinyu personally brought the girl back. Now the master and the mistress are waiting to greet her at the door!"

"Princess Qinyu said that the young lady was slightly injured while rescuing the young ladies from other families at the horse ranch two days ago."

"Princess Qinyu forgot about this matter these past two days because of the robbers. That day, she took the initiative to leave the girl at her farm in the suburbs. She was originally going to send a letter back, but she got delayed and only remembered to send the girl back today..."

The servant was so excited that he was incoherent, but Madam Pei couldn't wait any longer.

"Who cares about that princess! Where's my Luo'er? What's wrong with her? Take me to see her!"

At the gate of the general's mansion, Li Qingluo squatted down to thank Princess Qinyu.

"Thank you, Princess, for your kindness."

Princess Qinyu bent down and personally helped Li Qingluo up.

With a smile on her face, she lowered her head and whispered to Li Qingluo, "I don't care what happened between you and your cousin these past two days, but it's best if you keep it all to yourself."

"I grew up with my cousin as childhood sweethearts. In my eyes, he is different from the other princes, and in his eyes, I naturally have my place."

"I and he are the ones who have truly shared hardships together."

"That's all for this time. If I see you next to my cousin again, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Li Qingluo was not frightened by Princess Qinyu.

On the contrary, she was very angry.

So what if she is a princess of two countries?

Li Qingluo had already died once, and facing threats from others only aroused her rebellious nature.

However, Li Qingluo didn't want to cause trouble.

As for Prince Su, she herself had no intention of bringing up anything that had happened in the mountains again.

Just treat it as a dream, go home and forget everything.

But if Princess Qinyu wants to treat her as an imaginary enemy, there is really no need to do so!

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. I am just the daughter of the General's family. Who in the entire Jinling City would look down on me?"

Princess Qinyu smiled coldly and said, "It's good that you have self-awareness."

After saying this, she stepped back and, with a gentle and persistent look on her face, Li Qingluo held her hands and said, "I will always do what I was entrusted with. Don't blame me for my harsh words. There are too many women in this world who love to dream. If they dream of getting something they don't deserve, the final outcome will inevitably be shattered to pieces."

"As for Liu Qingzhu, if she hadn't been so stubborn and determined to seduce her cousin, the Fourth Emperor, she wouldn't have been able to enter the royal family."

After Princess Qinyu finished saying this, she turned around and bowed to Li Chaojing, then mounted her horse, waved her whip, and led a long group of people away.

Li Qingluo looked at her from behind and murmured, "So, you also look down on Liu Qingzhu."

But she behaved in a completely different way that day.

"Luo'er——"

Old Madam Pei stumbled out of the general's mansion and saw that Li Qingluo was safe and sound. She was so upset that she burst into tears.

"Child, come here quickly and let grandma see you!"

Li Chaojing and Qu turned around.

Li Chaojing: "Mother can rest assured now. I heard that you didn't sleep all night last night, and I was really worried."

"Now that Luo'er has returned safely, the whole family should be relieved and will not be implicated by her."

After saying this, Li Chaojing turned his head and looked at Li Qingluo, frowning and saying, "Luo'er, do you know your mistake? Because of you, the whole family has been unable to sleep or eat these past two days. You are really ignorant!"

"Since you went to Princess Qinyu's manor, you shouldn't have informed your family without telling them, making them anxiously look for you everywhere..."

Li Chaojing's father hadn't finished showing off when Old Madam Pei shouted, "Are you annoying me? I'm talking to Luo'er, what are you doing chattering here? Get out of here!"

Li Chaojing: “…”

Mother, please don't be too obvious about your favoritism.
