Looking at the backs of Yan Li and the others leaving without hesitation, the fake Gongsun Yue looked at Gongsun Hong.

"Alas... Yue'er, Ting'er has never met you, so it's normal that she has no feelings for you. Let's go home first." Gongsun Hong suppressed his anger and said to the fake Gongsun Yue.

"Okay, Dad, they are my saviors. I accept them as my godfather and stepmother." The fake Gongsun Yue looked at the old couple beside them.

They were filled with heartache when they saw the wounds on the fake Gongsun Yue caused by being hit by the carriage.

They are the biological parents of the fake Gongsun Yue.

Ever since the fake Gongsun Yue was taken away, he has been hiding in the dark and secretly observing her.

This time, when he saw her running out by herself and getting hit by a carriage, he couldn't help but run out.

Hearing what the fake Gongsun Yue said, they were heartbroken and their eyes were filled with tears.

At this moment, they really wanted to take the fake Gongsun Yue away directly, but they didn't dare to, and could only watch her secretly.

"Since you have found your home, let's leave." Seeing Gongsun Hong's gloomy face, the old couple hurriedly spoke for fear that he would embarrass the fake Gongsun Yue.

Then they supported each other and left.

Gongsun Hong looked at their leaving backs, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.

After all, only dead people can completely shut up.

"Wait." Gongsun Hong called out to the old couple.

The old couple turned to look at him in confusion.

"Since you saved Yue'er, our Gongsun family should be grateful to you. Here is a gold coin card with one million gold coins. Please accept it." Gongsun Hong took out a gold coin card and handed it to them.

"No need. We didn't save her for the gold coins. As long as she is safe, we will be satisfied." The old couple shook their heads and left, supporting each other.

The fake Gongsun Yue breathed a sigh of relief as she watched them leave.

She has been living the life of a young lady from a general's mansion these days. This luxurious life makes her unable to stop, so she doesn't want to be brought back to her original form again.

She even cursed in her heart, hoping that the old couple would disappear quickly and not destroy her current happy life.

After the old couple left, they walked towards the dilapidated temple in the city, preparing to return to the countryside the next day.

They had just been in the dilapidated temple for a short while when the old man took out a bun from a torn bag and handed it to the old woman, then he took one and started eating it with tears in his eyes.

At this moment, a group of men in black rushed in with knives and surrounded them.

The old couple had never seen such a scene before, and they were so scared that they hugged each other.

"Boss, they are so weak and pitiful. Do we really want to kill them?" A man in black looked at the man in black who was leading the group.

"Gongsun Hong is so cruel that he didn't even let go of a pair of elderly people." said the leading man in black.

"You guys go, go quickly, otherwise you will lose your lives." The leader of the men in black looked at the old couple.

"Did the general ask you to kill us?" At this time, the old man calmed down.

"That's right. Even though we are killers and our hands are stained with countless blood, we never kill the elderly, children, women or children. This is our bottom line." said the killer.

"Boss, why don't we send them directly to Prince Zhan's Palace?" suggested a man in black.

"Prince Zhan's Palace?" The leading man in black was confused.

"That's right. Gongsun Hong killed them because he was afraid that they would reveal the identity of the fake Gongsun Yue?" said the man in black.

"That's fine. After all, Gongsun Yue saved our lives, and we can't just watch her daughter get cheated." The leading man in black nodded.

"That fake Gongsun Yue is your daughter, right?" The man in black looked at the old couple.

"Yes, she is our daughter Yu Ping." The old couple did not deny it.

"Let me tell you, if she continues to pretend to be Gongsun Yue, she will end up dead. If she is exposed, King Zhan will kill her. If she succeeds and achieves her goal, Gongsun Hong will also kill her." The man in black spoke coldly.

"So, our Ping'er is doomed to die." The old woman's face was filled with despair when she heard this.

"There is only one way to save your daughter now, and that is to go to Prince Zhan's mansion and tell Prince Zhan the truth about Gongsun Hong's conspiracy." The man in black continued.

"Will King Zhan save our Ping'er?" The old man looked at the man in black.

"The junior sister of the King of War is the daughter of Gongsun Yue. Only if you beg her and she is willing to speak, your daughter can have a chance to survive." The man in black continued.

"Okay, please take us to Prince Zhan's Mansion." The old couple nodded when they heard this.

So the men in black who were originally here to kill them sent them to the gate of Prince Zhan’s mansion.

“Please report to Prince Zhan or Miss Yan and tell them that you need to see them regarding Gongsun Yue.” The man in black said to the guards at Prince Zhan’s mansion.

The guard nodded and went in to report.

Soon, the guards came out.

"Come in with me, King Zhan and Miss Yan want to see you." The guard looked at the man in black.

In the Prince's Palace.

"Who brought that old couple here?" Yan Li muttered.

At this time, the guard had walked in with the man in black and the old couple.

The old couple knelt down as soon as they saw King Zhan and Yan Li.

"Shatian Pavilion, are you the killer of Shatian Pavilion?" The War King's gaze fell on the man in black.

"That's right, Gongsun Hong hired us to kill these two people, but Gongsun Yue once saved the lives of everyone in Shatian Pavilion. Therefore, we couldn't bear to see her daughter being plotted against by Gongsun Hong, so we brought them here." The man in black nodded.

"It turns out that killers also have feelings." Yan Li sighed when he heard this.

"Although we are killers, we also know how to be grateful." The man in black was speechless when he heard this.

"Go ahead." Yan Li looked at the old couple.

"Give them a chair." Yan Li ordered the servant beside her.

Someone immediately moved the table forward.

The old couple sat down with some trepidation.

"The one who pretended to be Gongsun Yue is our daughter Yu Ping. Miss Yan, does your mother Gongsun Yue look very similar to Ping'er?" The old woman seemed to have something to say.

"Yes, your daughter looks 80% like my mother." Yan Li nodded.

"It turns out that girl is your mother, Gongsun Yue, the general's daughter." The old woman exclaimed when she heard this.

"Have you seen my mother?" Yan Li looked at the old woman.

"My daughter's appearance was given by your mother." The old woman sighed.

"My mother gave it to her?" Yan Li was stunned when she heard this.

"That's right. We rescued your mother from the hillside. At that time, our daughter was disfigured due to an accident. Later, after your mother woke up, she restored Ping'er's appearance to thank us." said the old woman.

"Because Ping'er envied your mother's peerless beauty very much, your mother simply restored Ping'er's face to look similar to hers. She said at the time that they were 80% similar." The old woman continued.

"What happened next?" Yan Li looked at the old woman.

"Later, your mother left in a hurry before her injuries were fully healed, and we never saw her again." The old woman's tone didn't sound like she was lying.
