"Princess Yunyang is not having a good life in Liuzhou. The Prince Consort only likes his cousin and is very cold to Princess Yunyang and the Crown Prince. Princess Yunyang quietly ran to Kyoto with the Crown Prince.

She begged me to ask me to intercede with the emperor and let her and the crown prince stay in Kyoto.

She went to Liuzhou. It was the late emperor's word. It was only a short time before the new emperor ascended the throne. It was impossible for the new emperor to let her stay in Kyoto against the former emperor's wishes.

I made it clear to her, and I said that I tried hard, but it might not work. She probably felt that I was not willing to try my best to help, so she begged to go to the Anping Mansion."

Gu Luo frowned upon hearing this.

Asked to go to Anping's Mansion, could it be that Princess Yunyang still has a personal relationship with the people from Anping's Mansion?

Gu Luo did not interrupt Lu Pingshan. Lu Pingshan's eyes were half-squinted, with a look of unresolved sadness on his face.

"The palace where the palace banquet was held happened to be the place where the emperor imprisoned the former crown princess. Another courtier and I planned a plan to rescue the crown princess.

Everything was going smoothly at first, but then something unexpected happened.

Yunyang privately brought Qingshuang to the second child of the Gu family. At that time, Qingshuang had not yet reached the age of hairpin. Yunyang coaxed her and said that Beiyan's hostage was talking to the little girl over there. Qingshuang liked Beiyan at that time.

The hostage was tight, and he had no defense against his aunt, so he followed Yunyang to a side courtyard of the palace.

She went in with her front foot, and Yunyang locked the courtyard door with her back foot.

Gu Laoer from the Anping Mansion was waiting for her in the courtyard.

Qingshuang had learned some kung fu since she was a child, and she would climb over the wall and run away if she saw something was wrong. Since the second child of the Gu family had set up such a trap to lure her, how could he let her run away so easily.

Yunyang gave Qingshuang some plum wine before he arrived, and something was laced in the wine.

The former Crown Princess escaped from the yard where she was being guarded according to our rescue plan, and happened to hear Qing Shuang's cry for help, and heard Qing Shuang's name being mentioned in the Gu family's dirty mouth.

In order to save Qingshuang, she secretly changed her rescue plan. She entered the courtyard. At that time, the emperor's guard had noticed something was wrong and reported the situation to the emperor. The emperor ordered people to search the palace. There was no other way. In order to rescue Qingshuang,

The former Crown Princess could only set a fire there.

The fire did work, and she did save Qingshuang, but the fire was too strong. By the time we took advantage of the chaos to rescue her, her legs had been knocked unconscious by the falling beams.

.”

Lu Pingshan looked at Yu Yan.

"I...failed to protect your mother and concubine."

How could Yu Yan deserve such words?

In that situation, if someone is willing to risk his life to save his mother and concubine, he is already his great benefactor. "Grandpa, don't do this."

Following Gu Luo, Yu Yan was also called Grandfather.

Lu Pingshan shook his head, "The fire was so intense that we didn't dare to delay after rescuing the empress, so we immediately sent them away. By the time I left to take care of Qing Shuang's affairs, Qing Shuang had already been detained by people from the Anping Mansion.

When the emperor ascended the throne, the queen chose a daughter from the Anping family. At that time, the Anping family was at its peak, but the emperor did not dare to cause too much trouble with Beiyan.

Everyone knows that Beiyan's hostage once came to my house to propose marriage to Qingshuang, but now Qingshuang has been humiliated by the second master of the Gu family...

In order to save the face of the court and the reputation of the Anping Mansion, the Queen came forward and asked the Anping Mansion to take Qingshuang away directly. She also found someone to pretend to be Qingshuang and returned to the Lu Mansion, claiming that he had contracted a bad disease and died suddenly that night.

Immediately afterwards, An Pingbo found numerous irrefutable evidences of my corruption. The emperor didn't know whether he was really clear or just confused. He decided the case without even interrogating me.

And I didn't even know about this process. I was detained when I returned. It wasn't until I was convicted and exiled that I realized that I had committed the crime of "corruption."

The Lu Mansion was ransacked. At that time, there was something as important as the Prince's Mansion hidden in the house. The people who followed me were afraid that the thing would be exposed and cause greater harm to their lives, so they quietly moved the thing. Later I found out that the thing was delivered to someone else. On the Zhuangzi of Anping Bofu, I left it with Qingshuang.

The Anping Mansion detained Qingshuang, but they did not kill her. They also wanted to use Qingshuang as bait to hook up with Beiyan in the future, just in case the hostage of Beiyan could ascend the throne.

Later, the hostage from Beiyan returned to Beiyan and indeed ascended the throne, and the Anping Mansion would not kill Qingshuang.

But they are afraid of being exposed.

Just...ruin Qingshuang.

Qingshuang's years were very difficult, but she had those things in her hands, always waiting for someone to pick them up, and she endured the hardships.

I was rescued by the former prince's people during my exile. After wandering around and twists and turns, we returned to Kyoto. At that time, we had no intention of revenge at all. We just wanted to rescue the prince and Qingshuang, take them away, and fly away.

But the Crown Princess's health could no longer bear it any longer. In Wangjia Village, we tried to get in touch with Qingshuang, and also tried to establish a good relationship with Kyoto. We agreed to pick up Qingshuang and the young prince in two days. But on that day, the Crown Princess couldn't hold on and died before dawn.

I don’t know how Qingshuang got the news. Before the Crown Princess’s body was hardened, news of Qingshuang’s death came over there, saying that she had suffered heavy bleeding due to dystocia.”

Lu Pingshan said this without any fluctuation in his voice.

Gu Luo's heart felt like a needle crawling through his heart.

On the one hand, the Crown Princess could not hold on and died, and on the other hand, Lu Qingshuang committed suicide. Lu Pingshan, who was holding the situation together at that time, must have felt so uncomfortable.

"I know what Qingshuang means. She doesn't want me to take risks to save her. She wants me to do my best to save the young prince."

Go and save the young prince.

Go and save Yu Yan.

At that time, they had no plan to take revenge. They just wanted to bring Yu Yan out of Kyoto.

Lu Qingshuang chose to die so that Lu Pingshan could go all out to save Yu Yan.

Yu Yan sat there, feeling that his vision was blurry.

If Lu Pingshan had not planned to save his mother and concubine, then maybe nothing would have happened to Lu Qingshuang, and nothing would have happened to Lu Qingshuang, and the Anping Mansion would not have been so crazy as to eradicate the entire Lu family.

His family... no matter how virtuous or capable they are, Lu Pingshan must pay such a price.

Originally it was Yu Yan holding Gu Luo's hand, but now it's Gu Luo holding Yu Yan's hand, holding it tightly.

Lu Pingshan looked at Yu Yan.

"I took people to Kyoto to rescue you, but at that time, you suddenly left the capital. I wasted no time. I missed that opportunity and never found another opportunity. I was also afraid that something would go wrong if I stayed in Kyoto for a long time. I

I just have to leave first."

Later, he met Old Pumpkin.

Later, under Old Pumpkin's step-by-step arrangement, he no longer went to save Yu Yan, but instead went to the northwest to build bricks and tiles for him, for Old Pumpkin, and for those who died, just for someone else later.

One day comes.
