Liyue said to Qingping, "Yes, mother, I am here to ask you to go with me."

Qingping nodded to Liyue, stood up and said, "Then Yue'er go get ready too. I'll get ready and we'll go together."

Liyue nodded, then stood up and left!

After leaving Qingping's courtyard, Liyue said to Mumian, "Tell the prince later that I went to the Duke's Mansion!"

Mumian asked Liyue, "Miss, don't you want me to accompany you?"

Liyue said to Mumian, "You go and deliver the message. I'll let Xiaokui go with me."

Mumian nodded to Liyue and left!

Li Yue returned to her courtyard and called Xiao Kui to change into a pure white dress, like a fairy banished to the mortal world. The texture of the dress was soft and smooth, like the clouds in the sky, and you could feel its delicateness when you brushed against it gently. The white sleeves fluttered slightly in the wind, and the faint fragrance also drifted away.

She also asked Xiaokui to put on a pale makeup for her, which gave her an indescribable beauty. Her face was pale, and her lips were only a light pink, as delicate as cherry blossoms. There seemed to be a hint of sadness between her eyebrows, which made people feel pity. Her hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, without too much decoration, only a few strands of silver hair flickered in the wind.

After Xiao Kui finished dressing up Li Yue, she said to her, "Miss, is this okay?"

Li Yue looked at herself in the bronze mirror, nodded to Xiao Kui and said, "Not bad, that's it."

After that, he took Xiaokui and said, "Let's go, mother must be waiting for us."

When they arrived at the gate of the general's mansion, Qingping was already waiting there. Not only was Qingping waiting there, but there was also a carriage waiting there. The carriage was decorated with exquisite patterns and carvings. The shaft and wheels shone with golden light, and above the carriage was a canopy made of silk and brocade, embroidered with patterns symbolizing power and auspiciousness.

The horses pulling the carriage were tall and mighty, with hair as shiny as silk. They walked at a steady pace, and the doors of the carriage were open, revealing the luxurious interior. The carriage was covered with soft carpets, and the seats were made of the finest leather, which was comfortable to the touch. The windows were hung with curtains embroidered with exquisite patterns, which fluttered gently as the carriage moved.

Xiao Hanqi sat in the middle of the carriage, wearing gorgeous clothes and looking dignified. When Xiao Hanqi saw Li Yue coming, he smiled and walked down.

Qingping saw Xiao Hanqi smiling and said to Liyue, "Okay, Yue'er, go and join Qi'er."

Li Yue said to Qing Ping with a blushing face, "Okay! Mother."

Xiao Hanqi bowed to Qingping and said, "Greetings, Master's Wife."

Qingping smiled as she looked at the two people in front of her. Xiao Hanqi was dressed in a black suit, with an upright posture and a cold temperament. The black sleeves fluttered in the wind, making him look more elegant and extraordinary. His face was well-defined, his eyebrows were sharp, and his eyes were full of determination and wisdom.

Li Yue was wearing a dress as white as snow, like a fairy descending from the earth. The white gauze dress fluttered in the wind, like a dream. Her skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows were like paintings, and her eyes were clear and moving, just like the clear autumn water. Three thousand strands of black hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall.

The two stood side by side, like a perfect couple. Xiao Hanqi's black robe and Li Yue's white dress set off each other, forming a unique beauty. Their eyes met, and the tacit understanding and love between them were conveyed without words, as if the whole world had stopped for them.

Qingping looked at the two people in front of her, feeling extremely happy. She smiled and said to Xiao Hanqi, "Okay, you take Yue'er with you! You can take care of each other if anything happens."

When Xiao Hanqi heard Qingping's words, he smiled and held Liyue's hand directly in his, and said to Qingping, "Don't worry, Master's wife, I will take good care of Yue'er."

After saying this, Xiao Hanqi waited for Qingping to nod, then he pulled Liyue directly into his carriage.

As soon as Li Yue sat on the carriage, she said to Xiao Hanqi, "Why are you here so early? I thought Mu Mian told you that you would come in a while!"

Xiao Hanqi pushed the snacks beside him to Liyue and said to her, "When you asked Mumian to inform me, I was already ready to pick you up. I knew you would definitely go to the Duke's Mansion, so I thought it would be better for us to go together."

Li Yue smiled and said to Xiao Hanqi, "Why? Is the dignified Prince Han still afraid that Duke Xu will eat me?"

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Li Yue, "He wouldn't dare to do that while I'm here."

Seeing Xiao Hanqi's confident look, he said to Xiao Hanqi helplessly, "So Prince Han is so confident."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Li Yue, "This is not confidence, this is strength, Yue'er!"

Li Yue smiled and said nothing, but directly asked Xiao Hanqi, "I wonder how Aunt Su is doing, is Xiao Yi back?"

Xiao Hanqi nodded to Liyue, took out a letter from his arms and said to Liyue, "The family has been sent to the place, and they can handle the rest by themselves. This is the letter she wrote to you."

Li Yue excitedly took the letter, opened it and read the words on it, "Yue'er is happy to see the letter. My family and I have already arrived. Yue'er, don't worry. If you are going to the Duke's Mansion, please tell the eldest young master for me, thank you. After all, this matter has nothing to do with him. I dragged him into this, and now he may have some grudges with the Duke because of me, but I still hope that he is safe and sound. Please convey my apologies and gratitude for me. Yue'er, if I have a chance, I really want to come to Kyoto again and watch you get married and have children. But now it seems that there is no such opportunity, but I still hope that you can live a safe and smooth life. Yue'er, if I have a chance to come to Kyoto to see you, you must tell me. Have you lived a good life? I will bless you from a faraway place. Su Yao"

After reading Su Yao's letter, Li Yue smiled in her heart and said to Xiao Hanqi, "It seems that she is very happy now."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and said to Li Yue, "We will be very happy too."

Liyue smiled and nodded and said, "Yes! We will be very happy too."

Soon they arrived at the Duke's Mansion. There was silence in the mansion. Su Yao's death cast a shadow of sadness over the entire mansion. The people in the mansion were dressed in plain clothes and looked solemn.

A white silk cloth with words of mourning embroidered on it with black thread was hung on the gate.

Xiao Hanqi got out of the car first and reached back to help Liyue. After the two of them got out, Qingping also arrived and walked up to them and said, "Let's go in."

The two nodded to Qingping. The servant at the door saw Xiao Hanqi and others, and asked someone to notify the housekeeper. Soon the housekeeper came out and was excited when he saw the three of them!
