A concubine? You're more like a joke. I'd rather send you to your death.

Bai Hao lowered his eyes.

Yes, he was so foolish that he was tricked into coming here by Zhang Yuyao, and even went so far as to cover up the poisoning.

Has he ever truly cared about this daughter all these years? Perhaps not; it's all up to Zhang Yuyao.

He deserved it.

"I know I've made a mistake. No matter what, you are the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion. Can you please not leave?"

Bai Luoluo sighed softly, "If only I had known this would happen."

"It's all too late. General Bai, some things are lost forever, there's no going back. Letting go is a kind of fulfillment. Think of your wife in the afterlife, do you think she can forgive you?"

The words hit the nail on the head, and Bai Hao's tall body swayed slightly.

"Luo'er, are you really going to be so resolute? Give your father a chance to make amends."

"Rest assured, I will take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days. Please do not speak of anything else. The ugly and despicable eldest daughter of the General's Mansion is long dead. The current Bai Luoluo is a new person and does not want to have anything to do with the past. I hope the General will not do this and should avenge his wife and daughter properly."

She is not the original owner of this body, and she has done everything she could to be kind and righteous, and she has also sought justice for the original owner for so many years. Moreover, Bai Hao is really unworthy to be a father.

Sometimes it's not that she's heartless; just a moment ago, the family of three was having a great time. If this matter hadn't been exposed, she might have ended up being kicked out by Bai Hao.

One cannot have everything. He gave up genuine family affection right in front of him, and now a simple "compensation" or "sorry" can erase everything. There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Moreover, she's not a masochist; she doesn't feel pain when slapped, so giving her a couple of sweet treats will make it all go away.

"Luo'er's words are not wrong; it is I who have misjudged people."

Bai Hao withdrew his hand.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Before they could finish speaking, Bai Luoluo had already left.

Watching the departing figure, a tear of regret rolled down Bai Hao's cheek.

He is the one who deserves to die the most, so why did you let the murderer who hurt your own daughter go?

.........

After Bai Luoluo left, she ordered Xiao Tao to take stock of everything and prepare to leave for the Zhang residence to await her marriage.

She didn't want to stay in the general's mansion for even a moment longer. Going to the Zhang family to get married would be a way of fulfilling the wishes of the original owner's maternal grandmother and grandfather.

Zhang Yuxue, now in the afterlife, would surely be comforted, for she died unjustly and could not fulfill her filial duties.

She liked the elderly couple, and it wouldn't be a problem for her to marry into the Zhang family.

"Miss, that's all the stuff we have. Besides your jewelry, there's some money I've saved up over the years."

Seeing the meager amount of jewelry and money, Bai Luoluo reached out and took the package.

Over the years, Bai Qianqian has taken all the good things from the original owner.

“Carry it on your back, we’ll go now.”

"It's Miss."

Xiao Tao slung the package over her shoulder and obediently followed Bai Luoluo's side as the two headed towards the main gate.

As soon as I arrived outside, a luxurious carriage was parked at the door.

"Your Highness, the Prince has instructed his subordinates to escort you to the Zhang residence."

Leng Ye said respectfully.

"it is good."

Bai Luoluo smiled, knowing that having such a caring boyfriend was truly wonderful.

Gu Yanchi knew everything about the General's Mansion.

Because it was a matter concerning the inner quarters, it was inconvenient for him to intervene, but he respected Bai Luoluo's choice.

"The prince is really good to the young lady."

Xiao Tao sat in the carriage, looking at the pastries displayed inside, all of which were Bai Luoluo's favorite flavors.

"Yes, he's fine."

As Bai Luoluo spoke, she radiated happiness.

After Bai Luoluo left, Bai Hao killed Zhang Yuyao with a single sword strike.

This sword strike terrified Bai Qianqian so much that she wet herself, and she curled up in a ball, covering her head.

Seeing her like this, Bai Hao didn't know what to feel. The daughter he had raised for more than ten years turned out to be a bastard. He had lived an upright life, and now this was the stain on his life.

"Take this swindler away and lock him up."

Bai Hao gritted his teeth and said.

The Third Prince's concubine cannot be killed yet.

"It's the general."

Bai Qianqian was completely helpless at this moment, and two guards stepped forward to drag her out.

Everyone was disgusted, never expecting that Bai Qianqian would wet her pants.

Looking at Zhang Yuyao's corpse, Bai Hao ordered that her bones be crushed and scattered to the winds.

He should have thoroughly tormented the murderer of his wife, but such a vile person wasn't worth his time.

Empress, your death is imminent.

Bai Hao secretly vowed to kill the Empress to avenge Zhang Yuxue.

Zhang Mansion.

Bai Luoluo sat in the main hall with Xiao Tao.

Zhang Qingyang looked at her, puzzled.

"Luo'er, what's wrong?"

"I have decided to marry into the Zhang family. I wonder if my maternal grandfather would agree?"

"What happened?"

Zhang Qingyang's face was full of worry.

"Everyone, get out. I have something to discuss with my grandfather."

Bai Luoluo looked at the serving maid and gave the order.

Upon hearing this, the three maids hurried out, including Xiao Tao.

Only Zhang Qingyang and Zhang Qingyang remained inside.

"Luo'er, has something big happened at the General's Mansion?"

Zhang Qingyang wasn't stupid. How could a daughter not get married at home? Even if Luo'er agreed, Bai Hao wouldn't.

"Bai Qianqian is the daughter of Zhang Yuyao and the steward, and my mother was also poisoned to death by Zhang Yuyao. This poison was given by the Empress. Today I break with the General's Mansion and will have no further relationship with Bai Hao. Grandfather, there is no need to persuade me. My mind is made up."

Bai Luoluo's words were concise, and she didn't want Zhang Qingyang to persuade her.

"What?" Zhang Qingyang stood up abruptly. "How dare she do such a thing? Our Zhang family has raised her."

“It has come to this. She is a wicked person. Grandfather, there is no need to be angry.”

Bai Luoluo stepped forward to comfort the elderly father.

No one can accept it if their adopted daughter kills their own daughter.

But once a person dies, they cannot be brought back to life, and one can only accept the loss.

Moreover, Zhang Yuyao is doomed to die, and Bai Hao will never let her go now.

Zhang Qingyang was trembling all over and was helped to sit up by Bai Luoluo.

“Our Zhang family is truly sinful, raising such an ungrateful wretch who ended up killing Xue’er.”

His eyes were filled with tears as he regretted his decision. Had he known this would happen, he would never have agreed to the adoption.

"Do not tell your grandmother about this; she is in poor health and cannot bear the truth."

Back then, Wu's mother was overflowing with love and wholeheartedly adopted Zhang Yuyao, which led to the tragedy that followed.

If Ms. Wu knew that her momentary kindness had led to the death of her own daughter, she might not be able to accept it.

"Luo'er is very thoughtful. This matter should not be known to your maternal grandmother. But the Empress is so vicious. What is her purpose in killing Xue'er?"

Zhang Qingyang was also puzzled for a moment. The two had no interaction whatsoever, so where did the hostility and hatred come from?

"This matter is very strange. Does the Empress have some grudge against my mother?"

She poured Zhang Qingyang a cup of tea and handed it to him.

"There is no grudge between us. Is the Empress doing this because of Consort Yun?"

Upon hearing Zhang Qingyang's words, Bai Luoluo seemed to understand.

Back then, Zhang Yuxue and Yun Fei were close friends, and their relationship was very good.

If Zhang Yuxue is not killed, the truth will likely be on Consort Yun's side, and the General's Mansion may become an ally of Consort Yun in the future.
