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

Those who came were rustling and muttering.

"God damn it, Sha Lei! That day, we clearly saw him sneaking back with a bag on his back, but he disappeared after entering the house..."

"It took us two days to find this mechanism."

"It turns out there's a hidden room here that even our family doesn't know about."

"There must be something fishy going on here!"

"Today I want to see what treasure you have hidden!"

A figure walked in stealthily.

Li Qingluo felt the long-lost light and couldn't help but raise his hands to cover his eyes.

After getting used to it, he lowered his arms and looked into another pair of eyes.

This person is none other than Eunuch Wu, the chief steward of Prince Su’s Mansion.

When Eunuch Wu saw the imprisoned beauty, he couldn't even scream before he was knocked unconscious by a stick from behind Sha Lei in front of Li Qingluo's wide-open eyes.

Sha Lei stepped forward and stuffed another pill into Li Qingluo's mouth, then silently stuffed Eunuch Wu and Li Qingluo into two sacks respectively.

Before Li Qingluo fainted, he vomited the pill he had just taken during the shaking.

She had just taken a breath when she heard a servant curiously asking about Sha Lei.

"Guard Lei, you just came back, why are you going out again without taking a rest?"

"What is this?"

"Do you need my help?"

Sha Lei: "No need."

"This is His Highness's property. If you don't know, don't ask. And don't mention it to anyone else! Do you understand?"

The attendant replied timidly, "Yes. I will clear the way for you."

Sha Lei: "...Okay. Let's take the path where no one will see us today."

Li Qingluo had a bad feeling in her heart. After she had only taken a dozen steps, she was thrown to the ground.

Seizing the opportunity, Li Qingluo quickly used his last bit of strength to take out the silver chain hidden in his collar around his neck.

Hanging under the chain is a solid silver lock, and the silver lock can be opened, and the solid material inside pops out and turns into a sharp pocket knife.

This was Li Qingluo's last little thing for self-defense. Fortunately, the killer Lei did not find it and it was not confiscated.

She cut open the sack in front of her with a knife, and looked up to see Sha Lei killing the servant who led him and dragging him into the bushes.

Li Qingluo saw this scene and thought: As expected! He killed people to silence them!

Li Qingluo had no time to lament for the servant and climbed out of the sack using his hands and feet.

Hearing the noise, Sha Lei turned around and saw Li Qingluo regaining his freedom. He immediately drew his flying knife from his waist and swung it at him.

Li Qing fell to the ground and rolled, dodging in panic.

Then he picked up the flying knife on the ground and ran away.

Although her hands and feet were weak from hunger, she was still able to hold on for a breath and disappeared from Sha Lei's sight after turning a corner.

Sha Lei walked away angrily. He didn't expect that Li Qingluo had left him a backup plan, so he didn't even tie her hands and feet.

However, in the Prince Su's Mansion, apart from Fengyu, Leidian and the other four who recognized her, who else did she think could save her?

Today, he was the only one who returned to the palace.

His Highness is still in a village fifty miles outside the city.

Therefore, no matter what, she could not escape from his palm today.

Sha Lei took the whip from his waist, threw Eunuch Wu into the next room and locked him up, then quickly ran after the direction where Li Qingluo disappeared.

Li Qingluo ran all the way, looking for people.

She opened her mouth several times, but no sound came out.

Moreover, the Prince Su's Mansion was like a maze. She turned around and around and soon lost her way completely.

It was not until he ran to a dead corner of the courtyard that Li Qingluo finally ran into a few old women and servants.

They were also shocked when they saw her.

"Who are you?"

The old woman shouted and came over with a broom.

At this time, Sha Lei also came over with a long whip.

Seeing this, Li Qingluo quickly rushed behind the old woman like an arrow.

Sha Lei's eyes were sharp and cold: "This is a female assassin who intends to do something bad to Your Highness. She has just killed someone in the West Garden. If you still want to live, you'd better get out of here immediately!"

The old woman screamed in fear, but Li Qingluo actually picked up the flying knife that killed Lei and pointed it at the old woman's neck.

The old woman was so scared that she almost cried: "Guard Lei, please save me... I don't want to die..."

Although Li Qingluo couldn't speak, she still sneered coldly as she stared at Sha Lei.

Li Qingluo retreated with the old woman.

It was clearly a blind spot, but she had never thought that she could escape from his clutches today.

She reached out and pinched the old woman's waist hard.

The old woman screamed.

In a short while, many servants gathered around the originally deserted courtyard.

Doesn’t he want to kill people to silence them?

If you have the guts, kill all the slaves who saw me in Prince Su’s Mansion today!

Whether he kills or not, this is a big deal.

Seeing her calculation, Sha Lei showed contempt in his eyes: "Without him, this is all you can do?"

This "he" naturally refers to his own master, Prince Su Duan Rongshi.

He always believed in his heart that the daughter of the Li family could be where she is today thanks to Duan Rongshi's help.

So without Prince Su, she would naturally be nothing.

Li Qingluo bit her lips stubbornly and glared at Duan Rongshi with hateful eyes.

It seemed that even I couldn't refute my contempt for him.

"Where else can you escape to?"

Sha Lei shouted loudly, raised his whip and pounced towards Li Qingluo.

The old woman screamed and covered her face in fear.

However, Li Qingluo did not use her as a human shield, but pushed the old woman against the wall the moment the whip was swung.

The heavy impact caused the old woman to faint on the spot.

Li Qingluo raised his hand and caught the long whip, and his arm became completely numb and lost all feeling in an instant.

She quickly realized the situation and dropped the flying knife in her other hand and surrendered.

Sha Lei tied her hands and feet neatly.

He looked at the servants in the yard with sharp and cold eyes.

It is not a problem to kill all these slaves.

But the trouble is, there are two servants from His Highness's courtyard.

If His Highness were to suddenly change the person he was used to, it would surely arouse His Highness's suspicion...

Sha Lei suppressed the murderous intent in his heart.

"Your Highness has been troubled by the flood control issues lately and has been extremely worried."

"If anyone dares to gossip about what happened today and let His Highness hear about it, and makes Him annoyed and irritated, don't blame me for using you as a scapegoat!"

Everyone was shocked: "Yes..."

Li Qingluo was put into the sack again.

In order to prevent her from causing trouble again, Sha Lei knocked her unconscious again.

What Sha Lei didn't notice was that Li Qingluo's hand, hidden behind his back and unconscious from the severe blow he'd struck with his whip, had already stained his waist with a plum-red stain due to the blood from his index finger, which hadn't yet solidified...

The rainstorm in Jinling finally stopped completely in the afternoon of the fourth day.

Due to the remarkable flood control, although many houses outside the city were damaged, the number of people killed in this natural disaster was much lower than in previous years.

Moreover, because of the timely repairs and the hard work of the Water Department and the Military Department over the past few days, a lot of farmland and crops were saved.

Although floods are still flowing everywhere, dams are still collapsing and mudslides are occurring from time to time.

However, the Ministry of Water Resources has already embarked on the right track of disaster relief and has begun to implement various disaster relief instructions in an orderly manner.

The Crown Prince and Duan Rong returned to the court one after the other.

This was the first major thing the prince did after he resumed his position as crown prince.

Most of the achievements were attributed to him.

Although the people from the Water Department were dissatisfied, they were all suppressed by Duan Rongshi.

"If he wants it, give it to him."

"He is my elder brother. Can I still steal the credit from him?"

"Just think of it as all his doing. This king doesn't care."

The Minister of Water Resources, Yin Qi, sent Prince Su to the city gate. After hearing what Prince Su said, Yin Qi could only endure it.

"Your Highness has made great contributions to flood control over the years. It's clear that every time the flood control work is done, it's your credit, but every time you give it to someone else, it's always given to someone else..."

Duan Rongshi stared at him.

"Your Majesty, it belongs to whoever you want it to belong to. Don't you understand?"

Yin Qi was choked and had nothing to say.

Duan Rongshi was riding his horse and about to enter the city gate.

A figure who had been watching at the city gate for a long time saw him and immediately ran over with an anxious look on his face.

"Your Highness Prince Su! Your Highness Prince Su——"

"I am Wu Quan from General Xiuli's Mansion. Your Highness, do you still remember me?"

Zhuiyu and Lengdian looked at each other.

Could something have happened in the general's mansion?

Why are the people around the girl waiting here?

Duan Rongshi hasn't slept much for several days.

He was already exhausted, and when he saw Wu Quan appear, his heart suddenly tightened.

But what's the important matter with her?

Even when her grandmother was in trouble, she went to Guiyuan first. She had never been so anxious as today to send someone directly to the city gate to wait for him to come back.

Something happened to her!

He leaned forward involuntarily: "I remember you. But what happened?"

Wu Quan: "Your Highness, our girl has been missing for several days."

"Your Highness, please lend a hand and help us find the girl for our Xiuli General's Mansion—"

"The old lady said that no matter whether he is dead or alive, he must see the person!"

Duan Rongshi's expression suddenly lost control, and disbelief was written all over his face: "What did you say?"

"Who's missing?"

Wu Quan cried, "It was our daughter, Your Highness. Our daughter went to Guiyuan that day, and later went to the Jinling government office."

"He was chased out of the Jinling Yamen prison by Minister Qu. After a confrontation with the Qu family, he disappeared on his way home!"

"Not only that... Que'er and Aunt Deng have also disappeared without a trace."

"To this day, there is still no news about the three of them!"

Zhui Yu and Leng Dian were also shocked.

"How can this be?"

"Why don't you come and find His Highness?"

Wu Quan: "These days, anyone leaving the city gates must check their badges and pass. Unless it's an urgent matter, the city gates will be guarded by soldiers and no one will be allowed to enter or leave at will, saying it will interfere with the government's flood control efforts."

"Although we went to look for His Highness, we missed him every time."

"Our people can't even leave the city in large numbers to look for her, and the girl doesn't know whether she is alive or dead now—"

"Your Highness, please, for the sake of the old lady's past military service and her heroic deeds, please save our girl—"

Wu Quan knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

After a few hits, his head was covered in blood.

Duan Rongshi's face was gloomy and dark, and his heart had never been so violently and urgently surging.

He shouted "Go!" and the black horse galloped into the city gate like lightning.

Upon seeing this, Zhui Yu immediately shouted, "Everyone, go to General Xiuli's mansion to provide assistance!"

Then he and Leng Dian quickly picked up Wu Quan and chased after him.
