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

Li Qingluo felt that Zhang Tingyu was truly a talented person.

He was able to endure humiliation for so many years and even took advantage of the situation to destroy his enemies. Now he is even more willing to take the initiative to take charge of things.

And he is very thorough in his work.

I really don't know what's wrong with Princess Zhiyuan's eyes. She lets such a prince consort trample on her every day, but she insists on keeping her heart on Xie Huaiyuan for decades and refuses to look back.

Although Li Qingluo did not completely trust Zhang Tingyu, he really had no better choice than letting him handle the aftermath.

When the common people saw the monks dying in large numbers, they all became frightened after their impulsive actions.

Everyone gathered together, all looking terrified.

Zhang Tingyu quickly rushed over and took charge of the situation.

"Don't be afraid, folks."

"You are just trying to get your money back. This prince consort will take care of it for you."

"However, this prince consort wants you to promise one thing."

After a while, Leng Dian found Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi standing at the edge of the cliff and reported, "Your Highness, Miss. Zhang Tingyu and his men have dug out all the gold and silver from the ground."

"But judging by the quantity, it should not be enough."

"He said that the Xie family was implicated in a corruption case, but the matter was later dropped because Xie Huaiyuan suddenly became a monk."

"Although the Xie family escaped from that incident, they were still deeply hurt. They were completely broke a few years ago."

"But the strange thing is that the Xie family has been living a prosperous life all these years. Zhang Tingyu has been searching for a long time but has not been able to find the source of the Xie family's money."

"The shops and farms they own now can't even support their current lives."

"But Zhang Tingyu seemed to understand everything just now."

Li Qingluo: "So, the Xie family openly severed ties with Xie Huaiyuan back then, but privately, Xie Huaiyuan has been secretly sending money to the Xie family all these years."

"The money they gave was all used to exploit the people and deceive the common people, even the high officials in Nan'an."

Li Qingluo couldn't help but sneer: "This Xie family is really just like Xie Huaiyuan, both rotten villains."

"The Xie family might not be innocent of the corruption case they were involved in back then."

Li Qingluo remembered what her mother had said, that Xie Huaiyuan had deceived her and given her to that man in order to save the Xie family.

Thinking about it now, Li Qingluo still feels that Xie Huaiyuan's death was too easy.

"Ashi, do you still remember the words Princess Zhiyuan cursed at my mother in the Guanyin Temple while pointing at her face?"

She wanted to dig out Zong Zheng Qingyue's corpse, splatter it with blood, and seal the soul nail!

Li Qingluo clenched his fists when he heard that.

Duan Rongshi's voice was as cold as ice: "Forgot?"

"When their bodies are reduced to ashes, I might as well have a taste of what they've done."

Leng Dian understood what they meant and nodded.

"Oh, right? Zhang Tingyu took all the blame for killing the monk on the guards of the princess's mansion in front of the people."

"He also promised to save the lives of the people today, as long as they don't reveal the princess's background."

Li Qingluo: "With so many people here, there's bound to be some timid people who spill the beans. We can't keep it secret like this."

"Is this his method?"

Leng Dian: "It looks like there should be a backup plan. Now everyone is carrying gold and silver to the front mountain to dig out the collapsed and buried mountain road."

Duan Rongshi: "Send half the people to help dig. Keep a close eye on this guy and see what other tricks he has to deal with the aftermath."

Leng Dian: “Yes!”

In the blink of an eye, only Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi were left on the cliff.

This matter has come to an end.

Once the mountain road is dug through, everyone will leave here together.

Now, there is finally no one around, and no one will come over at this time.

Duan Rongshi looked down at Li Qingluo and asked, "Luo'er, can you tell me the whole story of your mother?"

He had already followed in her footsteps and had brought these two enemies of his mother to an irreparable state of destruction.

Next, who are the enemies of my mother?

He has been pursuing the truth for so many years, it's time to get to the bottom of it.

Li Qingluo quickly replied, "Of course."

She pulled Duan Rongshi to sit down on the edge of the cliff, just like when they were in the underworld and Zong Zheng Qingyue held her hand and sat under a tree.

She began to tell the story of Zong Zheng Qingyue...

Ever since Zong Zheng Qingyue could remember, she had lived in that small square courtyard in the cold palace.

She has a biological brother named Zong Zheng Langri.

Their mother was the former queen of the Great Chu Dynasty. She was a noble lady with both strategy and skills. She was different from ordinary girls from aristocratic families, but she was also the most beautiful lady in the entire Great Chu.

When the late emperor was young, the late queen accompanied him in his campaigns, giving him advice behind the scenes and occasionally even going into battle herself.

It can be said that their mother made an indelible contribution to the previous dynasty, and the entire maternal family helped the late emperor seize the throne.

But later, the late emperor was betrayed by a traitor and believed that the queen's fate would conflict with his ability to maintain his throne.

He forgot who helped him kill the enemy on the front line, and also forgot who helped him sit firmly on the throne.

He married another cousin from the queen's mother's family into the palace as a concubine. While appeasing the queen's mother's family, he personally sent the queen to the cold palace.

Even their own son Zong Zheng Langri was implicated and imprisoned in the cold palace along with the queen.

The queen gave birth to Zong Zheng Qingyue in the cold palace.

Perhaps because he suffered humiliation and sadness, he was in despair and died of serious illness when Zong Zheng Qingyue was two years old.

Until she died of illness, the seven-year-old Zong Zheng Langri was unable to find an imperial physician, and even the news may not have left the cold palace.

The guards were like two stone statues, and they remained indifferent even though Zong Zheng Langri hit his head.

Zong Zheng Langri could only hastily use his own little hands to bury his mother under the tree in the yard while carrying his sister on his back.

From then on, Zong Zheng Langri and his sister Zong Zheng Qingyue ate rotten rice and drank rainwater, and grew up in extreme malnutrition and hunger until Zong Zheng Qingyue was five years old, and he was ten years old.

The battle at the border and in Daliang was fierce.

The Great Chu suffered repeated defeats and lost several cities in succession.

The late emperor wanted to lead the army in person again, but suddenly found that the years of leisure and luxury had made him unable to do so.

Even if he picked up a big sword, he would be out of breath after only ten moves.

Only then did he remember the days when he had a smart and capable queen by his side.

He suddenly remembered that the queen who had accompanied him was still imprisoned in the cold palace.

And they also have a son.

When he suddenly felt like coming to see them, he found out that his queen had already died.
