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

The prince only felt that everything before his eyes was pitch black.

There was a buzzing in my ears.

"Empty city plan?"

"How can this be?"

"That's Qishan, not a real city!"

"Is it a mistake?"

"Didn't the assassins we investigated earlier all go and never return? Didn't they see a mountain full of Lotus Cultists?"

"How could it all disappear overnight?"

"Have you looked carefully?"

Jiang Ruiqi lowered his head in shame: "Your Highness, there is indeed no one on the mountain..."

"Not only that, on our way down the mountain... we encountered an ambush..."

"We are also seriously injured."

"This is why I was delayed and have been unable to return to report..."

"It is my incompetence. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

The prince was so angry that his mind went blank.

He drew his sword with almost no hesitation and pierced Jiang Ruiqi's throat in an instant.

"waste!"

"If you can't even handle such a small matter, what use is there for me to keep you here?"

"Go to hell!"

Jiang Ruiqi opened his eyes and looked down in disbelief at the sword that pierced his neck.

Without saying a word, he fell to the ground.

The court officials were all shocked by the prince's madness.

Minister Qu, who had also secretly come along today, boldly advised, "Your Highness, Your Highness, now that things have come to this, you should think about how to cut off the retreat. This matter must not reach the ears of His Majesty. Everything is still in time..."

The prince wiped his face.

His expression became numb and cold: "Yes, there is still time."

"Quick, take back the tiger talisman of the Northern Army!"

"Also, a city-wide ban—anyone who dares to spread any rumors about what happened today will be killed—"

"Report——"

Before he could finish his words, the guards from the East Palace came rushing over again.

"Report! Your Highness, something happened!"

"The Lotus Goddess appeared on the ruins of the Spring Banquet Building."

"Say, say I want to expose your true face, Your Highness... You are a fraud, a swindler, a hypocrite, and a hypocritical person—"

There was complete silence in the hall.

It was not until another bloody sword pierced the guard that the hall erupted in a low murmur of "uproar."

The courtiers showed expressions of horror on their faces.

Everyone thought the prince was crazy.

He actually killed two people in a row!

At this moment, he was standing on a high position, his eyes were red, his body was covered in blood, and he looked like a madman!

Where is his usual gentle and elegant appearance?

Everyone was trembling with fear and didn't dare to say another word.

The hall, which had just been bustling with laughter and celebration, was instantly plunged into a deep, dead atmosphere...

There was also a look of surprise in the queen's eyes.

But she still covered the eyes of the emperor's grandson as quickly as possible and asked the wet nurse to take him away quickly.

After the emperor's grandson left, she displayed her authority and shouted, "They are all bastards!"

"How dare you bring these false rumors before the Crown Prince and tell them nonsense?"

"Why keep such an idiot alive if he doesn't die?"

"Someone, drag them away quickly!"

After saying this, the queen tried to snatch the sword from Duan Rongyin's hand.

He quickly waved his hand and asked the court officials to leave.

After all the court officials had quietly left, the queen grasped the prince's hand.

"Yin'er, it's just the Lotus Sect. We have plenty of ways to deal with it."

"What you need to do now is calm down—"

Duan Rongyin: "Mother, how can I remain calm?"

"My son's wife and daughter are in her hands, and I have a lot of leverage over her that is in Zong Zheng Yu'er's hands!"

"If she really makes a scene without caring about anything, her son's reputation will be completely ruined!"

"The son must kill her himself—kill her!"

After saying that, Duan Rongyin waved the queen away and walked out quickly with his sword in hand.

"Someone come! Someone come——"

"Mobilize all the guards of the East Palace, and have the Imperial Guards come to see me quickly—"

The queen's face was filled with anxiety and she was in a state of panic.

"Yin'er is acting very strangely today."

"No, we can't let him continue to act like this."

"Quick, write a letter to the Gao family and ask them to let my father enter the palace!"

"Also, His Majesty must keep this a secret. These matters cannot be leaked to the Purple Palace."

“Hurry—hurry!”

"Call the Fourth Prince into the palace!"

“Every success is a blessing, a loss is a loss.”

"Nothing can happen to the prince, nothing can happen—"

The queen hurriedly chased after him.

A young palace maid then sneaked into the empty hall.

He put the prince's wine jug and wine glass into his arms.

Then he took out a new wine jug and wine glass and put them back to their original places quietly...

The prince was unable to control his madness. Besides the fact that he had something to hide, he also needed some wine as a trigger.

This lead will surely make the prince lose his composure even more today and reveal his true colors.

Soon, the people of Daliang will see what Duan Rongyin’s true face is.

When she thought of this, a smile appeared on the little palace maid's face.

In a teahouse only fifty meters away from the ruins of Chunyan Tower.

Li Qingluo, standing on the third floor, looked at the streets that were almost packed with people, then looked back at Sha Yi behind him: "Your Highness, is there any news from them yet?"

Kill One: "Got it."

"They say they've escaped and are on their way here. Furthermore, Zhui Yu and Miss Que'er have also reunited with His Highness."

Li Qingluo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"They will come out from the Pei family."

"Has Pei Jingzhe arrived?"

Sha Yi: "I can't squeeze in. But Sha Si has gone to meet Master Pei, so they will be there soon."

Li Qingluo hugged his arms and tapped his arms quickly with his fingers.

At this rate, people from the imperial court and the Eastern Palace should be here soon.

The woman in white standing on the ruins of Chunyan Tower is Sha Qi in disguise.

The maids standing around were also killers.

Although most of the people jumping around in the third layer of the crowd were Lotus believers, compared with the previous Lotus believers, these people simply did not have the strength to fight against the court's military force.

And now half of the people in Jinling City are probably stuck in the streets.

The government will not sit idly by and will soon send a larger force to wipe out this side.

Li Qingluo originally just wanted to lure Duan Rongyin out of the palace.

Seeing that the time was almost right, she quickly said, "Let them retreat temporarily."

Sha Yi quickly accepted the order: "Yes!"

After a while, thick smoke suddenly emerged from under the ruins.

In an instant, the aloof Lotus Goddess and her maid were enveloped in thick smoke.

There was a lot of noise all around.

It is said that the ghosts of those who were burned to death in Chunyan Tower have come out to cause trouble.

And at this moment, the government officials finally arrived.

Not only government officials, but also many palace guards.

However, when everyone drove the people away and looked at the ruins of Chunyan Tower again, there was no trace of the Lotus Goddess.

Everyone looked at each other.

Is she really a goddess?

Otherwise, how could he disappear in front of everyone in public?

The crowd was in an uproar.

"Is this Lotus Goddess really a god?"

"This, this is too amazing! He died in Qishan before, and now he appears in the ruins of Chunyan Tower, but in the blink of an eye, he suddenly disappeared again! If this can't be a real god, what else could it be?"

"Guess where she will appear next time?"

"Let's go find it!"

"She didn't wait for the prince, so she will definitely appear again!"

"Let's go and find her. Where else can she appear—"

The city was instantly in chaos.

Everyone has completely forgotten about the curfew.

The government was busy cleaning up the mess left by the Lotus Sect while also chasing people all over the streets, asking them to return home quickly.

Even the curfew bell was sounded early.

The people fled in all directions, all looking for the Lotus Goddess with great interest.

However, just as the people had dispersed from this side, the prince's carriage came to a steady stop in front of the ruins.

When he angrily lifted the curtain and no longer saw Zong Zheng Yu'er, he angrily slammed the curtain shut again.

"Could it be possible that she can really fly into the sky and hide underground?!"

"I never believe in ghosts and gods!"

"Dig! Dig through this ruin for me. Even if I dig three feet deep, I will dig her out!"

At the prince's command, countless dark shadows came forward and started working in an instant.

Li Qing looked at everything from the window and smiled coldly: "It's a mess, the more chaotic Jinling is, the more chaotic your heart will be."

Just then, Pei Jingzhe finally arrived.

It's getting dark.

When Pei Jingzhe came in, he was dressed in black, as if he had already blended into the darkness.

Li Qingluo looked at him quietly.

He waited for him to speak first: "The Yaoguang County Lord wants to see me. I wonder if it is what I thought in my heart. Is the County Lord willing to give our Pei family a chance?"

Li Qingluo: "Don't beat around the bush. Prince Pei, I know what your Pei family wants."

"However, your Pei family's sins are so grave that they are not so easily offset!"

Pei Jingzhe was silent for a long time before he raised his eyes and said calmly, "But today, don't you also have something to ask of our Pei family first?"

All the Lotus believers in Qishan, except for a small number who had already moved into the city.

Ninety percent of the people have now entered the passage from the Pei family's ancestral mausoleum outside the city to the dungeon of Pei Guogong Mansion.

The Zheng siblings, even Zhuiyu and Que'er, should all be inside now.

That's why Li Qingluo took the initiative to negotiate peace with Pei Jinghong.

However, peace talks do not mean that the Pei family can offset all their sins.

Li Qingluo: "It seems you already understood it."

"Yes, in a quarter of an hour at most, countless people will come out of your Pei family dungeon."

"Do you want to help hide our whereabouts, or report the disturbance to the authorities? You can make your choice now."

"However, your Peiguo Mansion will also face the end of being massacred in an instant."

"At worst, we'll all fight to the death, and I'll still be alive and well outside. And your Pei family will face the already predetermined outcome in advance."

"Would you like to give it a try, Prince Pei?"

Pei Jinghong's face looked very ugly.

The future of their entire Peiguo Mansion was in the hands of someone.

This is also the reason why he had to bow his head again and again to this distant cousin in front of him.

He really had no chance of winning against her.

"Tell me, Yaoguang County Master, what exactly are your conditions?"

Li Qingluo: "I want the souls and bones of those women in the Pei family dungeon to see the light of day again!"

"Their grievances have been made public!"

"Between heaven and earth, there is their true burial place!"
