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

Chapter 229 Grandmother wants to kill her son to clear the family line!

Li Qingluo was helped down from the carriage. She looked up at the house before her and heard Nanny Deng say, "This is the house that the old lady had given to him by His Majesty after she single-handedly won a victory against an impossible odds and returned to Jinling."

It does not belong to the Li family, nor to the Pei family, but exclusively to Mrs. Pei Xiuzhen. It is a mansion given by the current emperor.

Only Mrs. Pei would be so careless as to leave such an honor vacant for decades.

Two maids stepped forward and pulled down the dusty and ashy curtain. On the black plaque were written a few large golden characters: General Xiuli's Mansion.

Madam Pei turned around and said, "Luo'er, come here."

Li Qingluo quickly walked up to Madam Pei and looked at the house in front of them with her grandmother.

"Good boy, from now on, this will be our home as grandparents and grandchildren."

"Come on, let's go in and take a look with grandma."

Although the house has been vacant, it was given by the royal family after all, so Madam Pei has had people guarding it all these years.

Knowing we were going to move in a few days ago, Aunt Zhang had already arranged for someone to come and clean the place inside and out.

Except for the plaque, everything else was already spotless.

Not only that, things were being added to it day and night.

At this moment, everyone in the yard was kneeling on the ground, welcoming the return of Li Qingluo and Old Madam Pei.

"The servants and maids pay their respects to the old lady and the young lady."

Mrs. Pei took Li Qingluo to visit the new home.

This new house is really great in every way.

Although it is not as big as the General's Mansion in Dongyin Lane, from now on, it will be home to only the two of them, grandparents and grandchildren, so it is more than enough and even a little spacious.

There are also pavilions, towers, bridges, lakes, bamboo forests and gardens.

Although the yards are not very big, each one is extremely exquisite.

In order to make Li Qingluo live more comfortably, Mrs. Pei let her choose a courtyard and then ordered people to open up the courtyard next door, leaving only an archway.

Then the yard next door was designated as a special place for Li Qingluo to study and practice martial arts from now on. This side was Li Qingluo's private bedroom, and no outside men were allowed to enter from then on.

Including Nangong Di, the master that Li Qingluo is about to formally become.

Old Madam Pei also personally named Li Qingluo's new courtyard: Zizai Ju.

"Luo'er, Grandmother hopes that you can live a life of freedom and at ease, free from all the worries and troubles of the world, and free from being bound by anyone."

"Grandma's Luo'er, you must be the most comfortable girl in the world."

Li Qingluo hugged her grandmother tightly, feeling extremely moved.

"Grandma, Luo'er will live here with you forever."

Madam Pei laughed: "Silly child. You won't get married? If you don't get married, how can Grandma hold her little great-grandson?"

"But grandma, don't be in a hurry. You still have a few years to spend with grandma. Even if you get married in the future, this will always be your home."

"Just remember, wherever Grandmother is, that will always be your shelter from the wind and rain."

Li Qingluo said seriously, "Grandma! How about Luo'er finding a live-in son-in-law? That way, Luo'er can stay with you forever."

Mrs. Pei laughed out loud: "Grandma, it seems feasible."

However, the extremely beautiful and handsome face of Prince Su suddenly flashed through her mind.

Mrs. Pei: Ha, bah, bad luck.

After Madam Pei returned to her main courtyard, she called Aunt Zhang over and asked, "Do you know what Luo'er has been doing lately?"

Aunt Zhang was startled. "Didn't you stop caring about what the young lady does now? Why are you suddenly asking about it again? Are you still worried about the young lady's work?"

Madam Pei sighed: "Although I escaped death this time, I know that I have suffered some losses. Shouldn't I make more plans for her?"

"Did she do anything to Li Chaojing?"

When Aunt Zhang heard this, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

She came over and sat down at Madam Pei's feet. "Madam, please don't overthink it. The young lady really hasn't done anything. She just ruined the marriage between the Cui family and the General's Mansion these past few days."

Madam Pei’s eyes widened.

It's ruined, that's all?

When did Aunt Zhang become so arrogant?

Did she know that this marriage with the Cui family was the last hope for that rebellious son Li Chaojing?

Facing the questioning look in Mrs. Pei's eyes, Aunt Zhang laughed and then told the whole story of what happened at Qingsong Temple that day.

Madam Pei: "You only said you were ambushed by the Lotus Cult, but you didn't mention that you went to the Taoist temple to disrupt the Cui and Li families' marriage. I see...and the Liu family's affairs are also involved."

Nanny Zhang looked at Madam Pei nervously, "Madam, please don't worry. When the young lady first saw you, she almost...she was really furious. That night, she drew her sword and was ready to fight the entire General's Mansion. She was determined to get you out of the General's Mansion at the risk of her life."

"Otherwise... you would have been dragged to death by that heartless person!"

When Aunt Zhang thought about what happened that night, she became even more agitated.

Madam Pei: "Am I anxious or are you anxious?"

"I know Luo'er is determined to avenge me this time, and she's got both new and old grudges... I'm afraid she won't give up until she's dead with her beastly parents and that brother."

Aunt Zhang: "So what do you mean...?"

Madam Pei: "Can I let her kill her father and mother?"

"How will she face the world's criticism, spitting and insults in the future?"

Nanny Zhang's heart sank.

Could it be that...this matter is just like that, and we really won't mention it anymore?

Is the old lady still going to endure it?

I have endured it for more than 30 years!

She is still so soft-hearted!

Even Aunt Zhang felt somewhat unwilling.

Madam Pei smacked Nanny Zhang in the face. "What are you thinking? Luo'er shouldn't be the one to kill that heartless beast."

Aunt Zhang:?

Madam Pei said with a stern expression, "Since I didn't strangle him to death when he was born, from now on, I will personally clean up the mess."

"It's better for me to kill my son than for Luo'er to kill his father."

Madam Pei clasped her hands together and said, "I hope my sins won't implicate my Luo'er."

At 3 p.m., Dali Temple.

This was Li Qingluo's first visit to the Dali Temple.

The towering palaces, the majestic statues, and the bell tower that can be seen from the city gate.

As soon as he stepped into the Dali Temple, a chilling feeling instantly swept over Li Qingluo's whole body.

She couldn't help but wrap herself up tightly.

All the public officials who came and went behaved dignifiedly, spoke cautiously, and were serious.

Everywhere was filled with a solemn and inviolable atmosphere of majesty, murderous intent, and inviolability...

Looking up, you can see four big words on the plaque: Fair law enforcement.

It seems that all demons and monsters will be exposed when they come here.

When Li Qingluo thought about the fact that he was a reborn person, he felt a chill in his heart.

Zhui Yu took her aside and said, "Young Master, please come this way."

Li Qingluo dressed as a man today, and Que'er who followed him also became a servant.

Zhui Yudu stared at Que'er for several times, looking as if he was trying to hold back a smile in pain.

Que'er's eyes widened with anger, and she cursed Zhuiyu a hundred times in her heart: "What are you laughing at, you stinky guard? Is it really that funny?"

He followed his young lady angrily and unknowingly walked to the prison entrance of Dali Temple.

Que'er's legs suddenly felt weak.

Rumor has it that the Dali Temple's prison is several times more terrifying and bloody than Hell's purgatory...

However, seeing that her young lady walked straight in, Que'er had no choice but to muster up her courage and catch up with her.

As they walked down, Que'er quickly held onto Li Qingluo tightly and said, "Don't be afraid, young lady!"

Li Qingluo glanced at her and suppressed a smile: "Okay."

It is impossible for Li Qingluo to say that he is not afraid at all.

Just thinking that this was Prince Su's territory, she felt less fearful.

The long staircase twists and turns, and it gets damper and colder as you go inside.

Screams could be heard faintly, and the smell of blood began to spread through the nostrils...

After a turn, Zhui Yu did not lead them to a deeper prison, but directly to a fork in the road.

As we walked inside, it became much quieter.

But soon a faint light shone over.

Zhui Yu stopped and stopped Li Qingluo and his servant.

"Hush—just wait here, girl. Look over there, who do you think is it?"

Li Qingluo saw Su Wang Duan Rongshi.

He was dressed in official uniform and sitting on a high seat.

That face, already radiant with a hint of divine compassion, took on a strangely handsome quality in this dark, damp, and deadly place...

Li Qingluo quickly shook his head and looked at the woman kneeling on the ground in front of Prince Su.

The woman wore an iron chain around her neck that was thicker than Li Qingluo's arm.

This made her unable to lower her head or raise it, and she could only be forced to stare straight ahead, at Prince Su, in pain.

The prison uniform under her was already stained with blood.

The feet were already covered in blood.

His hands also hung limply vertically.

Zhui Yu said, "The tendons in my hands and feet have been severed. If I don't find a way to reconnect them, I'll be a cripple for the rest of my life."

Li Qingluo looked at the woman and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Could it be that she is the poisoner who poisoned Nan Jia?"

"Did you catch her?"

"When did you catch her?"

"Is the Maitreya poison that Nanjia was poisoned with before her death also related to her?"

Li Qingluo was so excited that she wanted to catch Zhuiyu and ask her about it immediately. Zhuiyu smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, young lady. Let's take a look first."

As soon as Zhuiyu finished speaking, the woman on the ground moved.

A strange laugh escaped her lips.

"Hehehe... I said, I know nothing. This has nothing to do with me... Is this how His Royal Highness Prince Su, as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, decides cases? Using torture to extract confessions, using torture to extract confessions, and then closing a case based on injustice?"

"How did the Twelfth Lady of the Pei Family get poisoned and die? What does it have to do with me?"

"You actually sent the entire Dali Temple guards to my sect to arrest people. If I don't show up, you will destroy my sect. You are so inhumane!"

"Also, what exactly did I do wrong? Is it just because I am Qing Yangzi's unmarried wife, and she, Pei Twelve Niang, is the one Qing Yangzi was engaged to before he became a monk?"

"Although I, Ku Lianqiao, am not a good person, I am not a jealous woman who is jealous of Pei Twelve Niang for no reason..."

As she spoke, the woman began to cry again.

It turns out that this poisonous woman's name is Ku Lianqiao.

When Li Qingluo heard her say this, his face turned pale with anger: "She's lying!"

Although there is no direct evidence, but after listening to all the details that Nan Jia told about what happened before she was poisoned, Li Qingluo can definitely conclude that the person who poisoned the chestnut cake in the first place was definitely this poisonous woman!
