Why did he suddenly appear?

He also scolded himself, an official who was after all the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

He relied on Prince Su's support, but there was no need to offend anyone just for the sake of a general's mansion that was about to be completely defeated, right?

And more importantly, when did this General's Mansion have any dealings with Prince Su's Mansion?

Also, there was another person who came with Prince Su’s guard Zhui Yu!

A man who was also wearing a guard's uniform, but was of unusually striking height and had a silver-white mask on his face.

Who is this person?

When he thought of these terrible things, Qu Daoyuan's face slowly turned pale again.

Pei Jingzhe was smart enough to realize the seriousness of this matter. Unlike me, I might have offended others in my impulsive behavior...

Then look at the person who came in with Zhui Yu.

This person's true appearance could not be seen, and he did not make any sound, but walked straight behind Li Qingluo.

Then he raised his hand and whispered in front of everyone, "Miss, I'm late."

"With my subordinates here, young lady and old lady, no one will hurt you two today."

Li Qingluo: ...

Mrs. Pei:?

Everyone else was confused. Even the maids didn't know when a guard appeared beside the girl.

Although this person had been here yesterday, wasn't he a guard from Prince Su's Mansion who came with Guard Zhuiyu?

How did it become a girl's?

Only Li Qingluo knew that this was not his guard at all, but Prince Su Duan Rongshi!

He should have been confined to Suwang Mansion to reflect on his mistakes, but now he's running around the world wearing a different mask...

In front is Lord Yue Wu.

Now she has become the down-and-out daughter of a general's guard who is about to be imprisoned.

Does he know what he is doing?

Is it possible that he will go to jail with me?

Li Qingluo couldn't help but secretly worry about himself.

She really couldn't bear to have a prince serve as her bodyguard.

Qu Daoyuan, who was standing by, saw that something was wrong.

After painstakingly enduring countless humiliations, he managed to put on a smile, changed his face respectfully, and approached Zhui Yu again to ask, "I wonder what advice Guard Zhui Yu has brought you here today?"

"But it was really a misunderstanding just now."

"How could I do such a thing?"

"It's really that the old lady and Miss Li refused to be arrested obediently. As you can see, they have a group of cunning old maids under their command, and each of them is armed. This is a serious crime of disobeying the emperor's order!"

"So, I just wanted to scare them."

"Since Guard Zhuiyu is here, please advise me and Lord Pei whether we should capture him directly or..."

Zhui Yu: "What are you taking?!"

He angrily threw a stack of things heavily at Qu Daoyuan's face.

"What qualifications do you have to arrest General Pei and Miss Li, the eldest granddaughter of General Xiuli's mansion?"

"Open your dog eyes and take a good look!"

"They have already left their clan and are no longer members of the Huqi General's family!"

"Who are you going to take?"

Leaving the clan!?

Li Qingluo quickly glanced at Duan Rongshi.

Was it him who did it?

Yesterday, after watching the excitement, he and Zhuiyu hurried away.

Li Qingluo didn't even have time to say a few more words to him before they disappeared.

It turned out that they had gone to do this for the two of them in advance?

Could it be that he had already received the news and knew that the entire general's mansion would be in danger today?

But why didn't he tell me anything in advance?

However, although this incident caught the two of them off guard, at least Prince Su had done it for her, and Li Qingluo couldn't help but feel relieved.

Li Qingluo quickly held her grandmother's hand tightly, and Mrs. Pei shook her head at her.

She also knew who did it.

But even if this had not happened, he and Luo'er would not surrender.

She would personally go to the palace to meet the emperor and ask for his grace, using the reward he still owed her years ago in exchange for the freedom of her and her granddaughter...

In this way, the reward can be used elsewhere.

Old Madam Pei's eyes swept over the general's family members and dozens or even hundreds of servants.

He even paused for a moment on his wronged son Li Chaojing.

After Qu Daoyuan and Pei Jingzhe picked up the documents on the ground and read them, they confirmed that they were authentic, so they naturally would not make things difficult for Madam Pei and Li Qingluo anymore.

However, what shocked them the most was the relationship between General Xiuli's Mansion and Prince Su!

Prince Su is now confined behind closed doors to reflect on his mistakes.

Not to mention himself, even his guards have almost disappeared in recent days, and there is almost no movement or sound in the entire Jinling City.

It was as if the entire Prince Su's Mansion had suddenly disappeared.

But they suddenly appeared, and it was obvious that they wanted to support Madam Pei and her granddaughter!

but why?

Although Mrs. Pei was once a female general with great military achievements.

But she is also old and can't help the Prince Su's Mansion in any way.

A group of strong old ladies?

The Xiu Li Army of that time no longer exists and can no longer make any waves.

Could it be... that this is for the real daughter of the General's Mansion who has been living away from home for many years?!

Qu Daoyuan and Pei Jingzhe both denied this speculation as quickly as possible.

Prince Su has very high standards. Even the princess and the prime minister's daughter are not in his eyes. How could he be interested in this country girl from the general's mansion?

Although she had been educated by Madam Pei for almost a year, and her appearance and demeanor were beyond the reach of ordinary daughters, the environment she grew up in was too poor, and now her family background was implicated by the General's Mansion.

The previous marriage proposals with the Marquis of Zhongyi and the Qu family all failed, which must have been due to something unsatisfactory about her, otherwise why would none of them come to fruition?

How could such a girl catch the eye of Prince Su?

Just be a concubine...

Oh, if Prince Su was willing to take a concubine, there would be countless noble ladies in the entire Jinling City flocking to him, and the backyard of Prince Su’s mansion would not be empty now.

What's more, why would Prince Su go to so much trouble and even specially ask his personal guards to support him?

As for Prince Su, it would be better to say that he was born with a homosexual nature than to say that he was waiting for Princess Qinyu.

Therefore, Prince Su must have other motives when he helped Madam Pei!

Qu Daoyuan suppressed the shock and confusion in his heart, and did not dare to delay any longer. He and Pei Jingzhe quickly took the rest of the people away.

Li Qingluo and Madam Pei could only watch all this happen for the time being.

Liu Mian'er was still pregnant with a big belly, and Huan Jie'er snuggled in Aunt Lou's arms, sobbing, and was pushed away crying.

Everyone in the second and third rooms was in a state of disarray, looking at Li Qingluo and Old Madam Pei with envy.

Li Kechuan was dragged away like a dog.

Li Chaojing struggled the hardest, as if he was about to be separated from his wife and children, and was dragged away from Madam Pei alive.

"Mother—Mother—"

"Wuwuwu, I don't want to be separated from my mother, I want my mother——"

"Mother, hold Jing'er's hand, hold Jing'er's hand—"

Li Chaojing is the culprit today.

Even though he was crazy, he was put in heavy shackles.

The entire general's mansion was empty in an instant.

In the front yard, only Wu Da's still wet body was lying on the ground.

Qu and her mother You, whom she strangled to death, were sent to the Jinling City government office early in the morning.

There was also Aunt Deng in the inner house who had committed suicide by hanging.

Mrs. Pei looked at the mess, which in an instant looked like an abandoned and desolate house, and was suddenly filled with grief.

This was the mansion she had earned by fighting bloody battles with Luo'er's grandfather on the battlefield.

She also spent the best years of her life here.

She and Luo'er's grandfather had once been extremely loving, and even had a son, Li Chaojing, with great anticipation.

But it was also here that she experienced her husband's betrayal of his promise and his disloyalty to her.

Completely alienated from his son.

Falling out with in-laws.

I left home in frustration and anger...

It was also here that her son wanted to kill her in exchange for the benefits he wanted more.

This time, after leaving, she will never come back.

"Come here, bury Aunt Deng and this person on the ground."

"Don't let them rot in this house."

The plaque of the general's mansion was taken down.

The thick door slammed shut with a creaking sound.

Li Qingluo turned around and glanced at the house behind him.

She was buried here in her previous life, and in this life, she can finally leave here.

From then on, she was no longer a member of the Li family tree.

She is herself, Li Qingluo.

The beautiful general's mansion.

Madam Pei put on a suit of armor.

Then, accompanied by Nanny Zhang, he hurried into the palace with the sword given to him by Emperor Yan.

Li Qingluo could only wait in the general's mansion.

After seeing her grandmother off, she immediately turned around and returned to Zizaiju.

When Que'er saw her, she immediately rushed over crying with joy.

"Miss, wuwu, you made me worry to death. I'm glad to see that you are okay. Miss, what happened?"

Li Qingluo: "It's just the Jiang family's matter. It was exposed faster than I expected."

"Thanks to His Royal Highness Prince Su's intervention, my grandmother and I were able to escape temporarily."

"By the way, let Uncle De come to see me immediately."

Que'er wiped her tears and didn't dare to delay: "Yes, girl!"

Li Qingluo stepped into the house and saw Duan Rongshi, wearing a mask, was still there.

She was startled and quickly bowed. "Your Highness Prince Su has shown great kindness today. Li Qingluo will never forget it. I owe Your Highness another debt."

Prince Su turned and looked at her. "Get up! There's no need to tell me this. Did your grandmother go to the palace? Who does she want to trade for the military merits that the emperor still owes her?"

Li Qingluo was surprised: "How did Your Highness know?"

Li Qingluo had just learned about this. On the way back to General Xiuli's Mansion, Madam Pei said in person that when she went to the battlefield for the last time, she had made so many outstanding military achievements that Emperor Yan didn't know what to reward her with, so he said that he owed her a reward.

Just wait until she thinks of what she wants in the future, and then go in and ask for favor.

Mrs. Pei was heartbroken by the death of her brothers in battle, so she took the opportunity to resign from her official position.

"Grandma never thought of using this opportunity all these years."

"But today she watched helplessly as the Li Mansion collapsed. Even if that family had wronged her, she must have felt very bad."

"But I'm afraid it won't be possible to save the entire Li family... So I guess that Grandmother will save the entire Li family, all the female members."

Although Madam Pei didn't say it, Li Qingluo also guessed so.

Duan Rongshi rubbed the black jade ring on his thumb, took off the mask on his face and said coldly: "As long as it is not a waste of opportunities, it will be fine to exchange for your biological father Li Chaojing."

"Li Chaojing is definitely going to die this time!"
