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

In a blink of an eye, New Year’s Eve is almost here again.

Ever since the last time Li Qingluo took Fangfang out of the palace alone and encountered trouble at Shunyang Marquis' Mansion, Duan Rongshi temporarily refused to let her leave the palace alone.

After he had finally finished the things at hand, he finally left Jinling City with his wife and daughter.

Because it is winter.

So Duan Rongshi also sat in the spacious carriage.

Sometimes he lay on his father's lap, sometimes in his mother's arms.

She is a child who can't stop.

She is full of cleverness and cuteness. Duan Rongshi now dotes on her more and more, and sometimes he holds her in his arms when he goes to court.

Of course, none of the civil and military officials in the court dared to say a word about whether the new emperor's actions were unbecoming of an emperor.

Because nowadays, women in Jinling and even in Daiyue are becoming more and more confident.

Who dares to impeach the princess for being brought to the court?

All this is because Your Majesty was the first to announce that the world also has half of the Queen.

Even the queen was praised as "Long live the emperor".

At first, the court officials didn't think there was anything wrong.

Because at that time the new emperor and the empress had indeed conquered the country together, and both the Great Chu and the Daliang wanted to compete for the new emperor.

It's too late to regret now.

He could only watch as all the women in the world stood up one by one.

And this is the result that Li Qingluo, as the queen, most wants to see.

In this world, it may take a long time to achieve true equality between men and women, and there is still a long way to go.

But there's no rush.

She was able to fight for the reputation of women step by step, and to help them walk on the streets with their heads held high. This was the first step she could take.

To change the true status of women, it would take a hundred years or even years of changes in the times.

Maybe one day, that day will really come?

After leaving the palace, Duan Rongshi took Li Qingluo to Qishan.

There is a private courtyard on the hillside of Qishan Mountain.

The doorplate hanging on the courtyard reads: Guiyuan.

As soon as Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi entered the door, they were greeted by a group of lovely mute slaves.

Before Duan Rongshi faked his death and left, he settled the mute slaves here, and now it has been their fourth year living here.

They are a little old.

Some of them surrounded them enthusiastically as before.

This was not the first time Li Qingluo came to see them.

But everyone was still very excited, and some even kept rubbing their red eyes and wiping away tears.

Li Qingluo knew that they were just too lonely.

Moreover, Duan Rongshi and I have not been around in the past few years, so they have nothing to rely on.

Li Qingluo: "Why don't you come with us into the palace?"

"If you live in the palace, we can see each other often and take care of you."

The mute slaves all gestured frantically.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty."

"We are all used to a free life and don't want to enter the palace."

"Besides, I can guard the princess here."

"We are very happy and free."

"As long as you guys come here occasionally, the mute slaves are already very satisfied."

As they said this, the mute slaves picked up Fangfang and took him away to play.

Li Qingluo looked at Duan Rongshi helplessly.

Duan Rongshi: "Let them do as they please."

"Anyway, I will support them until the end of their lives."

Li Qingluo: "Then let's go see Mother?"

At that time, Duan Rongshi was ordered by the Emperor of Chu to return to Daliang to steal the body of Zong Zheng Qingyue.

Duan Rongshi simply took the opportunity to move his mother's remains out of the Daliang Imperial Mausoleum and buried them in a fairyland outside the cave where he and Li Qingluo had fallen, which was like a secret place in the sky.

I believe that here, Zong Zheng Qingyue's soul can find true peace.

"Mother, we've brought your granddaughter Fangfang to see you."

"Mother, we all miss you very much."

"But please rest assured, mother, everything is fine with us."

"Mother, thank you for all this..."

If Zong Zheng Qingyue had not sent Li Qingluo back to be reborn, there would not be this life of Duan Rongshi and Li Qingluo.

There would be no little life like Fangfang.

In this life, they will live long and peaceful lives.

She knelt in the snow and called out in a baby voice: "Grandma..."

Then he kowtowed a few times obediently.

Duan Rongshi gently touched Fangfang's little head, then lowered his hand and held Li Qingluo beside him.

The three of them played in the snow for a while.

Fangfang and her mother smashed her father into a big snowman.

The cheerful laughter of the three people echoed in the mountains and forests for a long time, never stopping.

Kill one and go into the water to catch fish.

After eating grilled fish together in the cave, everyone reluctantly left this paradise.

However, on the way back to Jinling, they were assassinated.

Hundreds of people surrounded Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi tightly.

Because they were traveling incognito, they only brought about twenty guards with them this time.

But Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi were not panicked.

Duan Rongshi even calmly carried Fangfang out of the carriage.

Looking at the group of people in front of him, which was not large but not small either, he stood on the shaft with an imperial air, looked down on them and asked coldly, "Royal sister, are you not coming out to meet me?"

The new emperor was once a notorious killer.

Now that he is wearing the emperor's dragon robe, even if it is just his casual clothes, the natural dragon pressure on his body is already terrifying enough.

He once again released the murderous aura that he had deliberately suppressed in his bones. When he said this, all the black people present were so frightened that they dared not move for a moment.

The new emperor actually guessed their identities?

Could it be that the new emperor came prepared and was waiting for them?

The crowd dispersed.

Duan Xiyue was the last one to emerge from the crowd and walked out.

"Fifth brother, I haven't seen you for a few years. I didn't expect that our reunion would be like this."

"You are now the emperor of the world, and I, your sister, am the loser in my attempt to seize power... We, as siblings, have finally reached this day."

"But tell me, if I kill you here today, can I successfully break into the palace and seize the throne?"

Duan Rongshi: "Royal sister, you are joking."

"Let's not talk about the fact that you, these hundreds of people, can't capture me today. Let's say that if you really succeed in taking my head..."

"Before you even enter the Jinling Imperial City, your troops will be wiped out by the Beitu Army."

"Even if you could break into the palace, would the empire I conquer really recognize you as the new emperor?"

Li Qingluo also got out of the carriage.

She stood beside Duan Rongshi, looked at Princess Xiyue and shook her head.

"Princess, Ah Shi has known all your movements these days."

"He has not sent troops to capture you because of your brotherly relationship."

"Princess, this all needs to end."

Duan Xiyue raised her head and laughed bitterly.

"Finish?"

"Finish!?"

"My consort! My two sons! My beloved Nanping... they're all gone. How can I end this?!"

"At the beginning, I begged him not to send Nanping to marry..."

"He is also Nanping's uncle! Yet he still cruelly threatened me and ruthlessly sent my Nanping to that cannibalistic place!"

"To be honest, the reason I want to fight my way back to Jinling now is not to seize your kingdom, Fifth Brother."

"I will personally skin Duan Rongjue alive! I will make his life worse than death, and let him suffer the most cruel punishment in the world. I will let his wife and children suffer the same way he did to me. Let them all die because of him!"

"All of you, die! Die!"

Duan Xiyue roared madly with red eyes, roaring out her hatred, her pain, and her unwillingness.

Duan Rongshi: "So, my sister is going to drag these loyal people to pay with her?"

"Imperial sister, I can hand Duan Rongjue over to you."

"As long as you dare to follow me."

After saying this, Duan Rongshi turned around, picked up Fangfang and got back into the carriage.

Xiyue raised her head in disbelief: "Really?"

"You will hand Duan Rongjue over to me?"

A hint of defensive doubt flashed in her eyes: "Could this be a plot to deceive me and capture me?"

Li Qingluo: "Whether you believe it or not is up to you, Princess."

"Ashi has so far resisted the pressure from the entire court and has not yet executed the old crown prince, because he knows that you must be unwilling and full of hatred."

"He is thinking of your brother-sister relationship. Otherwise, would we only bring these twenty or so guards out of the city today, given that we are the eldest princess?"

"If the princess trusts my husband and me, please come with us into the city."

"If you don't believe me, you can try this path of fighting today."

After saying this, Li Qingluo turned around and got into the carriage.

Fang Fang threw himself into her arms and called out in a baby voice, "Mother."

When Duan Xiyue, who was outside the carriage, heard the word "Mother", her heart trembled violently.

She and her husband gave birth to a daughter and two sons.

Now that all three children have met a tragic end, how can she, as a mother, not be heartbroken and in agony?

His once black hair is now mixed with white hair.

Whenever she heard the childish voice calling her "A Niang", Duan Xiyue would think of the time when her three children called her A Niang.

Duan Xiyue would feel even more hatred in her heart, and would be unable to accept and forgive Duan Rongjue's cruelty!

It has come to this point. Whether we believe them or not, how could the result be worse than hiding from place to place all day long, trying to make a comeback but being completely unable to do anything?

Instead of suffering day after day and living like a walking corpse, it is better to take a gamble!

She has nothing left anyway.

Duan Xiyue turned around and looked at his old subordinates who had vowed to follow him until death, feeling filled with emotion.

"I am leaving now, regardless of life or death, you all are not to follow me."

"From now on, this vast world, you can all go and pursue your own lives!"

"Don't look for a useless master like me anymore."

After saying that, Duan Xiyue got on the carriage and left with Li Qingluo and the others.

The remaining leaders looked at each other in confusion, "The princess doesn't want us anymore?"

"So, where should we go and what should we do?"

Pei Qinghong, the leader of the shadow guards, walked out of the woods.

"If you wish to be free, you may leave now. However, you must remain anonymous from now on, and never mention your past or your former identity again."

"Otherwise, anyone who reveals that they were once a member of the princess's staff will be brought to justice by the imperial court."

"If you don't want to leave, just follow me."

If hundreds of people were released together, they would surely become bandits, so how could Duan Rongshi really release them all?

However, by changing their identities and returning them all to the army, it would also be a good opportunity to take in those who were once loyal to Xiyue.

Xiyue seemed to know that the emperor's younger brother would not kill all of his old subordinates.

In the carriage, she whispered, "Thank you."

"Fifth brother left the city today specifically to wait for me to show up, right?"
