After bidding farewell to Liu, Tang Mumu went straight to find Tang Qingzhi, but discovered that the maids in the mansion watched Tang Qingzhi very strictly, and even she had to use her identity as Princess Rong to be allowed in.

The moment she saw Tang Mumu, Tang Qingzhi felt like she had found a life-saving straw. Her usual dignity and composure were completely gone, and she pulled Tang Mumu into the inner room.

"Tang Qingzhi, what exactly are you up to? First you asked the servant to lie about my mother's serious illness, and now your yard is surrounded so tightly. What exactly do you want to tell me?"

Tang Qingzhi didn't say anything, but looked at Tang Mumu carefully. Tang Mumu felt uncomfortable under her stare.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Tang Qingzhi said nothing, turned around, took out a bundle from the closet and stuffed it into Tang Mumu's hand.

"If you still want to stay alive, take the things and go as far as possible."

Tang Mumu was increasingly confused by her actions. Thinking that he still had a lot of things to do, he hurried over to find her, thinking that there was something important. However, Tang Qingzhi told him to go as far away as possible without saying anything, and Tang Mumu got angry.

"Are you sick? Why should I leave?"

Tang Qingzhi bit her lip tightly, pulled Tang Mumu close to her ear and whispered: "I know you are not the original Tang Mumu. I don't know how you offended Prince Shun. I accidentally heard Prince Shun say that he would not let you go. If you still want to live, leave early."

In an instant, Tang Mumu felt as if thunder had struck his head, his head was buzzing, and he stared at Tang Qingzhi in a daze, even forgetting to react.

"Did you hear that? Prince Shun is cruel and has countless dead souls under his command. He won't mind having you as an additional member. If you still want to live, leave as soon as possible."

Tang Qingzhi stuffed the bag back into Tang Mumu's arms, turned around to check the guards outside, as if thinking about how to leave quietly.

Tang Mumu moved very fast, and Tang Qingzhi covered her mouth with her hands before she could even scream. Tang Mumu pinched Tang Qingzhi's slender neck. If she exerted a little force, Tang Qingzhi would die on the spot.

Tang Qingzhi was so scared that she was trembling all over, but she still calmed herself down. After a long while, she said with great effort: "I...I went to Shunwang Mansion yesterday, and heard him tell his subordinates that you are not the real Tang Mumu. He also said that your master offended him and you will definitely die. He is a demon who kills without blinking an eye. If you continue to stay, you will definitely be in danger."

Tang Mumu slightly eased the force on her hand, and Tang Qingzhi continued, "If Prince Rong knew your secret one day, he would definitely not turn against Prince Shun to protect you, and your father would not turn against Prince Shun to protect you either. Prince Rong's Mansion and the General's Mansion would not be your shelter."

Tang Mumu pursed her lips and let go of Tang Qingzhi's neck. The latter even covered her mouth with her hands when she coughed, trying not to make any sound, for fear of attracting people outside to come in.

Tang Mumu looked at her, unable to describe the feeling in her heart. Even her master would betray her for his own benefit, but Tang Qingzhi, whom she had only known for a few months, was working so hard to keep her away from danger.

It took Tang Qingzhi a while to recover and find her voice. Seeing that Tang Mumu was still standing there in a daze, Tang Qingzhi became angry.

"Are you crazy? Or do you think I'm lying to you? Prince Shun has killed countless people, he won't let you go just because you're a woman."

"Prince Rong is not as simple as you see on the surface. Father treats you as a chess piece. Once your existence harms their own interests, you will be abandoned. You have no other way but to save yourself."

Tang Mumu looked into Tang Qingzhi's eyes. Her eyes were so clean and pure. She was really considering her own safety with all her heart.

"Do you know who I am?"

Tang Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I don't know. If it weren't for the fact that you saved me before, I wouldn't care about this matter."

At that moment, Tang Mumu realized that what her mother had said before was true. Tang Qingzhi was different from her second sister. Only someone like Tang Qingzhi could become the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion and deserve the title of the most talented woman in the Li Dynasty.

"Nineteen years ago, my mother gave birth to a pair of twins. The names of the twins were unknown. I was the one that was abandoned. My master took me back and raised me. That's how I am today."

Tang Qingzhi's face turned pale, and she took a step back as she ran out of strength. She slowly sat down on the table, looking at Tang Mumu in disbelief.

No wonder they look exactly the same.

It took Tang Qingzhi a while to come back to her senses. She looked at Tang Mumu with a vigilant look on her face. "So what is your real purpose for coming back? Revenge?"

"Tomorrow you will go with me to a place and I will tell you the whole truth. Do you dare to go?"

Tang Qingzhi had no ill will towards her. After all, she now knew that she was not the real second daughter of the general's mansion. Tang Mumu didn't mind letting her know more things. Maybe she could help her in the future.

The next day, Tang Mumu went to the general's mansion early to pick up Tang Qingzhi. She had already talked to Rong Yan about this last night and asked Xuanqi to temporarily arrange her second sister in an ordinary guest room.

In front of Tiankeju, Tang Qingzhi curled the corners of her mouth. She felt that she was really crazy to believe Tang Mumu's words and follow her out of the house.

"So you just want to come here to eat?"

"I'll take you to see my second sister."

"The real Tang Mumu?" Tang Qingzhi was a little cold. Now she knew that the person she had been dealing with during this period of time was no longer the annoying Tang Mumu, and she was a little reluctant to see her again.

Tang Qingzhi thought for a while and finally followed Tang Mumu into Tiankeju. Things had to be resolved after all. Besides, although she didn't like Tang Mumu, she was still the second lady of the general's mansion. It was reasonable for her to go and see her.

But if she had known that the situation would be like this today, Tang Mumu would not have brought Tang Qingzhi here. She thought that after all these days, her second sister would have restrained herself. Who knew that she would become even worse? She also did not expect that her second sister would say so many heart-wrenching words to Tang Qingzhi.

The winter sky was mostly grayish white, and Tang Mumu and Tang Qingzhi left Tiankeju together.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect her to be like this. I thought she would improve after this period of time. If I had known she would say those words, I wouldn't have brought you here."

Tang Mumu felt guilty. In addition to wanting to tell Tang Qingzhi the truth, she also wanted the two of them to reconcile.

Tang Qingzhi smiled, seemingly not caring at all.

"I used to wonder how a person's character could change in such a short time, but I never expected that you are not the same person at all. She is still as annoying as before. I'm used to it, so you don't have to apologize."

"It's not just because of what happened today. I used to think that my second sister's life in the mansion was not going well because of you. I misunderstood you for a long time. I'm sorry."

"Many people in the palace say this. There is nothing to apologize for. I don't care what others think of me."

Both of them deliberately slowed down their pace. For some reason, Tang Mumu always felt that being with Tang Qingzhi could reduce the irritability in his heart.

"It was my second sister who deliberately let the people in the mansion spread rumors in order to discredit you. I apologize to you on her behalf."
