Qinglian, who had been whipped by the man in black all night, walked slowly and painfully on the dirt road between the cities, but her mind kept thinking of the promise made to her by the captain of the man in black.
As long as I complete this mission, I can be relieved and go home to reunite with my brother!
It is for this trivial hope that Qinglian has gritted her teeth and persevered to this day.
Traveling quickly, Qinglian followed the leadership of the man in black and arrived at the door of Gao Lan's house.
Of course, the man in black at this moment has taken off his black clothes and changed into normal military uniforms.
"Dang, Dang, Dang."
Following the knock on the door, I remembered that the door of the Gaofu Mansion, which was not considered luxurious, opened.
"Who are you looking for?"
A doorman in green clothes and a small hat came out.
"We are looking for Mrs. Gao. This is the wife of General Gao Lan. On General Gao's order, we are here to pay homage to Mrs. Gao."
At this moment, there is no need for Qinglian to speak, the man in black will take care of everything before meeting Mrs. Gao.
Hearing the words of the man in black, the disciple in green hat raised his eyes and looked at Qinglian who was listed behind everyone.
Damn, what a beauty! She’s so beautiful, with this face and this body.
As soon as he saw it, Qingyi Xiaomao was fascinated by Qinglian.
"Ahem!"
Finding that Qingyi Xiaomao looked wrong, Qinglian could only cough twice in embarrassment to remind him.
"Ah! Everyone, please come in.
The old lady is at home, I will take her to visit the old lady now."
After being reminded by Qinglian, Xiaomao reacted.
Oh my god, this is the mistress. If I look at her so blatantly, wouldn’t this make my mistress evil?
Feeling guilty, Xiaomao just wanted to expose the matter quickly, but he did not have any doubts about Qinglian and others.
After all, the master of his family, General Gao Lan, is just a general. Who would be able to impersonate his wife? Especially, such a stunningly beautiful lady...
Following Xiaomao's guidance, Qinglian finally met the target of this mission, Gao Lan's mother.
"My little girl Qinglian, please pay homage to your mother!"
When she saw the old lady, Qinglian naturally followed her previous plan and directly treated her as a second daughter.
Gao Lan's mother was just an ordinary lady. She had never seen such a battle before, and she was immediately confused by Qinglian's kneeling.
"Get up, get up quickly, girl, why are you doing this?"
Anyone who is suddenly bowed down by a beautiful woman and calls you mother will probably be as confused as Mrs. Gao.
Seeing the old lady like this, Qinglian's heart suddenly relaxed.
This is just an ordinary peasant woman. If her son hadn't become successful, she would have died of hunger like most people.
You know, what Qinglian was most afraid of before was that Gao Lan's mother was a young lady from a clan.
After all, that kind of young lady has sufficient social experience due to the environment she has been exposed to and the education she has received since childhood, so that she can make judgments on the strategies used by Qinglian and others.
But now, this ordinary old lady did not have any doubts about Qinglian. Instead, she trusted her even more under Qinglian's sweet words.
Yes, after meeting with the old lady, Qinglian introduced her to the old lady exactly as planned by the captain.
When the old lady heard that her son Gao Lan had already belonged to the Chu State, she was immediately shocked.
You know, in this era of war, it is normal to surrender to other lords, but the problem is that Gao Lan is a general under Yuan Tan of Qingzhou.
Even if the old lady doesn't understand the truth, she still knows that the Yuan brothers are at war with the Chu State.
At this point in time, his son returned to the Chu State, which only meant that the situation on the front line was very bad. Otherwise, he was doing well as a general in Qingzhou, so why bother to change his family?
"Lian'er, Gao Lan, Gao Lan, is he okay?"
After being fooled by Qinglian, Mrs. Gao has completely regarded her as her daughter-in-law.
As a mother, it is natural for her to worry about her son.
"Mother, don't worry, General Gao is fine.
Qinglian also met General Gao in Chu State.
Now, it was General Gao who asked Qinglian to pick up her mother and reunite her with her family in Chu State."
The highlight was coming. When she heard that Mrs. Gao was concerned about Gao Lan's safety, Qinglian knew that this mission could be easily completed.
However, what made her hesitate was Mrs. Gao's concern and enthusiasm for her.
This feeling of being a family member made his cold heart feel a little warm.
What if, what if everything I said was true?
But Qinglian, who knew her identity, could only throw away these unrealistic years.
"Okay, Lian'er, when will we set off?"
Mrs. Gao, who had complete trust in Qinglian, did not think anything of it. Since her son had asked his daughter-in-law to pick him up, what else was there to say?
"Mother, we will set off tomorrow.
However, you'd better write a letter first to inform General Gao of our situation, so as to put his mind at ease.
You know, General Gao was very concerned about your safety before Qinglian came."
After saying this, Qinglian's heart was in doubt again. Whether it succeeds or fails depends on this.
Fortunately, Mrs. Gao still didn't think anything of it. After hearing Qinglian's words, she turned over and started writing a letter to her son.
As for Mrs. Gao, why did an ordinary woman write letters?
This, I'm afraid, couldn't be simpler. After all, Gao Lan has been a general in Hebei for so many years. As long as he wants to learn, why doesn't he have the opportunity to learn some simple writing?
After getting the letter she had dreamed of, Qinglian completely relaxed.
The task is finally completed.
"Mother, Lian'er will take her leave first."
She went out and handed the letter to the man in black. Just as Qinglian was about to leave with him, Mrs. Gao's call came from behind her.
"Lian'er, don't leave, stay at home and have dinner together."
Qinglian hesitated when she heard Mrs. Gao's call.
Although the letter has been deceived, Mrs. Gao is completely worthless.
But after all, this is the first person besides his younger brother who cares so much about him.
Qinglian really had an impulse in her heart to regard her as her mother.
But before Qinglian could reply, the man in black waved his hand to the subordinate behind him.
Obviously, he planned to silence Mrs. Gao who had lost her use value.
"No! If you kill Mrs. Gao, I'm afraid the news will be leaked. If this delays the captain's important affairs, can you afford it?
If not, I will stay here. At worst, I will fake it and deceive Mrs. Gao away first.
If this is the case, even if Yuan Tan sends us to investigate, we won’t be able to find any doubts.”
Seeing that the man in black wanted to kill Mrs. Gao, Qinglian was so anxious that she quickly stopped her.
You know, this is an old lady who really treats herself as a relative!
