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

Ku Lianqiao: "It is indeed His Royal Highness Prince Su. He even knows about Maitreya's poison, which is rare in this world and not many people know about it."

"Although I don't know exactly how Pei Twelve Niang died, if this poison appears in Jinling City... it may indeed be related to me."

"I remember that I gave it to a good friend some time ago..."

Prince Su: "One of your good friends? Who is this person?"

Ku Lianqiao: "Princess Qinyu."

In an instant, Leng Dian and others quickly looked at Prince Su.

Prince Su's expression was calm and he showed no other reaction.

Seeing this, Leng Dian immediately stepped forward and continued to interrogate him harshly, "You are just a woman from Jianghu. How could you be such a close friend of Princess Qinyu that you could exchange gifts? Do you think we are all fools?!"

"Moreover, on the night when the twelfth lady of the Pei family died, Princess Qinyu was attending a night banquet in the palace."

"If you intend to pin this incident on Princess Qinyu, you are miscalculating!"

After saying that, Leng Dian stepped forward and lashed out at Ku Lianqiao with a whip: "You daring sinner! How dare you slander the princess? Do you want your entire clan to be exterminated?"

Ku Lianqiao felt the pain and hurriedly whispered, "Of course I don't dare to say anything nonsense! But I also didn't say that the man was killed by Princess Qinyu herself!"

"I've already betrayed Princess Qinyu for Qingyangzi. I've said everything I can. I really don't know anything else..."

After Li Qingluo came out of prison, Zhuiyu sent him to a carriage.

Zhui Yu: "Miss, our prince is not available to see you again today. He will come to see you later. If you have any questions, just ask the prince."

Zhui Yu said this with a smile and sent Li Qingluo away.

Li Qingluo: "Please ask Young Master Zhuiyu to give my regards to the prince."

She knew that being brought to the Dali Temple prison to experience this today was a special favor from Prince Su.

Naturally, she would not continue to be so ungrateful as to ask unnecessary questions.

And she was very satisfied knowing that Nan Jia's case had made great progress.

Moreover, Li Qingluo believed that Prince Su was a person who was sincere in handling the case.

Que'er still looked dazed. When they were completely away from the Dali Temple, Que'er murmured, "It's so scary. The rumor that once you enter the Dali Temple, even ghosts will shed a layer of skin is really true... That Qingyangzi actually... even..."

When Que'er thought of that scene, she felt her whole body tremble.

"Miss, do you want to tell the old lady about this?"

After all, Qingyangzi was the abbot of Qingsong Temple, and the old lady had many interactions with Qingyangzi, so when Que'er saw Qingyangzi become like that, she felt a lot of sadness in her heart.

When Prince Su was trying a case, did he sometimes resort to extremes to obtain the truth?

So Qing Yangzi wasn't the real murderer of Pei Shierniang...

Li Qingluo: "Prince Su must have his own ideas about this matter. Que'er, don't say anything!"

What Li Qingluo didn't say was that Ku Lianqiao fell into a trap and failed to see the truth.

But she had just seen clearly that after Qing Yangzi's arm was chopped off, although blood splattered everywhere, when he was dragged away, there was no large amount of blood flowing out from the broken arm...

Inside the Yamen of Dali Temple.

In an empty room, Qing Yangzi was standing in front of the window intact, with his hands behind his back, looking at the fresh buds sprouting from the branches outside the window.

When Duan Rongshi walked in, he saw that all the blood on his body had been washed clean, and he couldn't help but say coldly, "You seem to have nothing to do."

Qing Yangzi turned and bowed, "Greetings, Your Highness. I've put on quite a show with Your Highness today, but has she finally spoken?"

Duan Rongshi: "You've already acted so miserable. If she continues to refuse to say anything, wouldn't that be a huge failure on your part?"

"Don't worry, she hasn't vomited everything yet. I will use you again to make her vomit everything out."

Qing Yangzi's face was cold and indifferent, and even a murderous aura emanated from him: "Shi Er Niang, was she the one who killed her?"

Duan Rongshi only said, "The death of the twelfth lady of the Pei family may be closely related to Princess Qinyu."

When these words came out, Qing Yangzi's expression was slightly shaken.

"A few months ago, the poisonous woman Ku Lianqiao appeared near Qingsong Temple. Your Highness knew at the time that she had close ties with Princess Qinyu."

"So, by chance, His Highness allowed me to get close to this woman and even got engaged to her, all for the sake of planning your future."

"Your Highness was suspicious of Qin Yu. I originally thought it was simply because she was a princess of the State of Chu."

"Although you two are clearly siblings who grew up together, Your Highness seems to have more plans for her... But from what I've seen today, Princess Qinyu may not be sincere towards Your Highness either."

"Did she not plot against you?"

Otherwise, Ku Lianqiao would not know that he and Prince Su were close friends in their youth and had frequent interactions over the years.

Therefore, while I was approaching the bitter forsythia with ulterior motives, the bitter forsythia might also be approaching me with ulterior motives.

But when Qing Yangzi thought of Twelve Mother being implicated in this matter, his heart was torn into pieces.

He and Twelve Niang have known each other since childhood.

After they got engaged, every time he visited her secretly, he would bring her her favorite gadgets and snacks.

She always has the most innocent smile on her face.

Later, as she grew up, they saw each other less and less, but Qingyangzi became more and more concerned about her.

He never looked down on her just because she was a concubine's daughter.

"Your Highness, what secrets does Princess Qinyu hold?"

Duan Rongshi: "It's better for you not to know for now. When the time is right, I will let you know."

Qing Yangzi gave a wry smile.

"Back then, my entire Chen family was plotted against by Minister Qu. To protect me from the disaster, my parents and brothers, having anticipated it, resolutely sent me to Qingsong Monastery."

"Over the years, if it weren't for Your Highness's care, my father, brothers, mother, and sister-in-law would have surely died on the road to exile..."

"I, your Highness, will always be grateful for your kindness and will fight to the bitter end to redress the injustice done to my Chen family."

"So no matter what suffering I endure, I have no regrets."

"But Twelve Lady... Twelve Lady is innocent!!"

"If she was really murdered by Princess Qinyu, even if she was a princess of two countries, the ministers would kill her with their own hands!"

Sad tears flowed down Qingyangzi's face.

If it were the previous Prince Su, he would definitely not be able to understand Qing Yangzi's strong feelings.

But now, although he still felt that he was not sober enough, he did not have any intention of ridicule in his heart.

Duan Rongshi: "This matter has not yet been fully resolved. The Pei family, Old Duke Pei, and Pei San are all incorruptible."

"This matter is of no small importance. This prince will definitely find out the real culprit and reveal the truth to Pei Twelve Mother."

……

Li Qingluo sat up in bed in shock in the middle of the night.

"What kind of person is this Princess Qinyu?"

Li Qingluo originally thought that she was in love with Prince Su, so when she sent her back to the general's mansion that time, she warned her not to get close to Prince Su again.

But now it seems that how sincere she is?

At the night banquet in the palace, why did she push Pan Li into the lake and even kill her to silence her?

And was her action in the palace that night related to Nan Jia's death?

If the Maitreya poison that Nan Jia suffered before her death was caused by Princess Qinyu, then who did she use in the Pei Mansion to actually kill Nan Jia?

The faces of those people from the Pei family flashed through Li Qingluo's mind.

"Que'er, help me deliver a letter to the eldest daughter of the Pan family tomorrow!"

She wanted to go check on Pan Li.

Also, I must meet Yang Qinwu!

Que'er woke up rubbing his eyes, nodded, and fell asleep again.

However, the next day, before the invitation to the Pan family was even delivered, Nanny Deng came in with a sullen face and said, "Miss! The Qu family is so shameless! They actually brought the betrothal gifts and the matchmaker to the General's Mansion yesterday!"

Que'er: "What are they going to do?"

Aunt Deng: "What else can we do? Just now, someone we left in the mansion passed on the message that the Qu family is proposing marriage to our daughter on behalf of Xun brother!"

Que'er jumped up in anger: "Well, well, have the Master and his family agreed to the marriage?"

Madam Deng: "They said they agreed... Miss, the old lady already knows about this matter, and she is very angry now."

Li Qingluo was very calm.

"Then I'll go see my grandmother."

Li Qingluo came to see Mrs. Pei and saw that Mrs. Pei was drinking porridge.

Li Qingluo smiled and said, "Grandma, seeing that you are enjoying your meal, I feel relieved."

Madam Pei: "Humph! Do they think I'm dead? And they still want to decide your marriage!"

"I've grown old over the years, but being old doesn't mean I won't show my power!"

"How did I get poisoned? I know exactly what happened!"

"The Qu family, the beads on their abacus have jumped onto my face. How could I not know what they are thinking?"

"If I really die, your parents will indeed marry you off to the Qu family, but my Luo'er...how can Brother Xun be worthy of you?"

"What's more, the Qu family's viciousness has now been exposed. Even if I die, I will never throw you into that fire pit to suffer!"

"Don't worry, Luo'er. Grandmother is here. Even if the marriage is decided, she won't let you marry."

Li Qingluo: "Yes, Grandmother. With you in charge, I'm not afraid."

"Besides, Luo'er had already completely fallen out with the General's Mansion and my parents that night. Even if they arranged the marriage, if Luo'er didn't show up, could they really marry her off to a paper figurine?"

Li Qingluo smiled slightly, but thought in her heart: If the Qu and Li families could really do such a thing, she wouldn't mind letting Xun Ge die quietly.

After comforting Madam Pei, Li Qingluo went out again.

Because of this interruption, I can't go to Pan's house today.

Li Qingluo went to the Zhenxiu Restaurant in a low-key manner.

She wanted to try her luck, but unexpectedly she actually met Yang Qinwu!

After all, he is a captain of the Imperial Guard. Why does he run to his own restaurant all day long as if he has nothing to do?

It was not until Li Qingluo saw Mei Shuang busying around and Yang Qinwu's eyes fell on Mei Shuang from time to time that Li Qingluo finally realized what was going on.

Li Qingluo smiled. "I see. Que'er, go and get Yang Qinwu here. I need to ask him what he means."

When Yang Qinwu pushed the door open and saw Li Qing lagging behind, a trace of discomfort flashed across his face.

He seemed to know that this day would come sooner or later, but Li Qingluo suppressed his laughter and asked, "Don't worry, if you can really get Mei Shuang to agree, I will return her indenture contract to her."

Yang Qinwu looked up at Li Qingluo in shock.

"Can……"

But now that the slave has been freed, will the master still be at ease and trust her loyalty?

Li Qingluo: "I believe in my own judgment of people. For example, you, Lord Yang."

"Since I chose you to do that great thing, does that mean we are allies?"

Yang Qinwu bowed his head and said, "I do owe you a favor for this matter."

Li Qingluo: "In that case, Lord Yang, could you tell me what exactly happened at the palace banquet on the fifth night of the Lunar New Year, by the pond in front of Zhaohua Palace, when Miss Pan fell into the lake?"
