Rebirth is not a dream.

Chapter 113 Return to Su Garden for a Short Stay

Su Yue stood quietly under the corridor, gazing at the delicate carvings under the eaves. This beautiful courtyard should have been a peaceful and tranquil place, but now it was hiding countless filth and dirty things.

She really couldn't understand the behavior of these women in the mansion. Why couldn't they just live their own lives peacefully? Why did they have to fight to the death? What were they fighting for?

In this mansion, it seems that everyone has their own protector, but she is forgotten in the corner, no one cares about her. Does Qin Yi care about her? If those people's conspiracy succeeds, will he stand up to protect her?

At first, Su Yue thought that spending the rest of her life with Qin Yi might be a good choice. However, after the incident at Guanghua Temple, she began to doubt whether her original decision was wise. The thought of leaving the Marquis' Mansion came to her mind again, becoming stronger and stronger.

It is not difficult to guess what Aunt Cheng and Lu Anruo are thinking. The root of the problem must be Qin Yi. But why did Qin Yun get involved in this dispute? Su Yue pondered over it, but could not find the answer.

If you can't figure it out, just don't think about it. After all, she is just a concubine's daughter of the second house, and there shouldn't be too many intersections with me. That night, when Su Yue went to pay her respects to the Marquis's wife, she told her that she wanted to take the children back to Su Garden to live for a while. Presumably because of the Guanghua Temple incident, the Marquis's wife did not deliberately embarrass her and readily agreed.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing. Su Yue happily called Bijun and Yanyan, and took Fubao, Yaoyao and the four maids around her to return to Su Garden. This time, Su Yue secretly planned to stay in Su Garden for a longer time, and it would be best if she could never return to the suffocating Marquis' Mansion.

Along the way, the children were playing happily. Su Yue looked at their innocent faces and felt very warm in her heart. After arriving at Su Garden, everyone was busy packing their bags and cleaning the house. Su Yue strolled in the courtyard, feeling the long-lost tranquility. There was no intrigue in the mansion, only the good years.

At night, Su Yue lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She couldn't help but think of Qin Yi, and felt a little irritable. Recalling the scene of playing with the children during the day, a faint smile appeared on her face. Raising children in ancient times was indeed a different kind of fun. However, she thought again that if she wanted to leave the Marquis's Mansion, would the two children be able to go with her? Could the marriage decree be turned into a divorce decree? Would the emperor be willing to summon her? And could her identity as the daughter of Princess Mingzhao play a role? The more Su Yue thought about it, the more confused she felt. She couldn't think about these things carefully, otherwise it would give her a splitting headache. Let's go to bed quickly... one sheep, two sheep, three sheep, four sheep, five sheep... nine hundred and ninety sheep... Su Yue sat up and called softly: "Peach, Peach..."

When Taozi heard Su Yue calling her, she thought she was dreaming at first. After all, the young lady never asked anyone to wait on her at night, so maybe she heard it wrong. But after a while, Taozi felt as if someone was really calling her, so she quickly got up from the bed, hurried to the door of the young lady's room, and asked softly, "Young lady, are you calling me?"

Su Yue said calmly, "Taozi, bring me a pot of good wine." Taozi was embarrassed when she heard this, and she gently advised, "Miss, it's late at night now, drinking is not good for your health." However, Su Yue's face suddenly darkened, and her voice became cold, "Are you going or not? Do you need me to go and get it myself?" Seeing this, Taozi hurriedly replied in panic, "Yes, yes, I'll get it right away."

It turned out that Su Yue drank a lot of wine last night, and she slept until the sun rose high this morning before she slowly got up. When Qiu Zhu walked into the room, he saw Su Yue sitting on the edge of the bed with a confused look in her eyes, as if she was in a daze. Qiu Zhu walked up to her, bowed respectfully, and asked softly: "Miss, are you finally awake?" Su Yue looked at Qiu Zhu in a daze, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses, muttering to herself: "Is there anything delicious this morning?" Qiu Zhu smiled and replied: "Chen Xiang has already told the kitchen to start preparing lunch." Su Yue asked in surprise: "Is it this time?" Qiu Zhu nodded and said: "Yes, Miss. Do you want to eat something? Lunch will be ready soon." Su Yue thought for a while, waved her hand and said: "Then wait a moment, let's have lunch together later."

Qiu Zhu gently lifted Su Yue up and carefully helped her to sit down in front of the dressing table. Then, Qiu Zhu skillfully picked up the comb and began to comb Su Yue's long black and shiny hair.

While combing her hair, Qiu Zhu said softly, "Miss, we have some clues about the matter you asked me to investigate before."

Su Yue turned her head slightly, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Oh? What's the matter?"

Qiu Zhu smiled and replied, "It's about Princess Ming Zhao's maternal family. After some effort, we finally found some relevant information."

Su Yue's expression became focused, and she asked, "Tell me quickly, what have you found?"

Qiu Zhu paused, took a deep breath, and seemed to be trying to calm her inner turmoil. She gently stroked the corner of her clothes, sorted out her disordered thoughts, and then slowly said: "According to the information we have, Princess Mingzhao's maternal grandfather's family can be said to be of great origin. They were the Protector of the Country during the founding period. As a famous family in the capital, they were famous for a time. However, fate took a dramatic turn at a certain moment. A sudden change occurred, and the Protector of the Country's family was accused of treason and the late emperor mercilessly ordered the beheading of the entire family. This incident was like a bolt from the blue, shocking the entire capital.

The current Huguohou is the half-brother of Huguogong. Because of his meritorious service in reporting crimes, he was rewarded by the previous emperor and was awarded the title of Huguohou. All the resources of Huguogong Mansion also fell into his hands. However, there are rumors that Huguogong's youngest son Su Liu was not in Kyoto at that time. After the incident in the Duke's Mansion, he disappeared strangely and his whereabouts are still unknown.

Although the current Huguohou still retains some of his former glory, it is no longer the same as in the past. However, it is worth mentioning that the current Concubine Su, who is favored by the emperor, is the concubine of the Huguohou. With her beauty and intelligence, she is very popular with the emperor. "Qiu Zhu's voice revealed a trace of emotion and helplessness.

Su Yue didn't expect that such a complicated story would be involved. It seems that this world is much more complicated than she imagined.

Su Yue: "Don't we all know all of this? Is there anything else that the public doesn't know?"

Qiuzhu: “Yes…”
