Rebirth is not a dream.

After receiving the order, Jiang Yuan started to investigate Han Qi. The next day, Jiang Yuan came to report the results of the investigation.

"Master, I have already found out. Han Qi is a servant in the Second Master's courtyard. His hometown is also in Guangling. In addition to working, he is very close to a little maid in Yihong Courtyard. This person did meet Xiao Cui before the Third Young Madam's accident. But according to my observation, there is nothing unusual about him. Old Xiao Cui is the third-class maid in the Third Young Madam's courtyard. The Third Young Madam was ill a while ago, and there was not enough manpower, so she did the work of a second-class maid for a few days. Now she is sweeping the courtyard again, and nothing special has been found."

After hearing this, Qin Yi thought for a moment and said, "Keep watching them and see if you can find any clues. Also, send someone to protect the Third Young Madam and don't let her get hurt again."

"Yes, young master." Jiang Yuan responded and stepped back.

At this time, Qin Yi's heart was full of doubts and worries. He felt that someone was not letting him investigate, so he decided to go to the housekeeper in person to find out about Han Qi's situation. But before Qin Yi could find the housekeeper Chang Shan, something happened to Su Yue.

After Su Yuezhi returned from Chunyuan, she had a strange premonition in her heart from time to time in the past few days, as if something was about to happen, and it was hard to predict whether it was a blessing or a disaster.

Su Yue has almost finished packing her dowry. The dowry from the Marquis's Mansion is just some ordinary things. Most of her dowry is hidden in the other courtyard over at Fushanfang. She wondered when to go over and take a look. After all, the Double Ninth Festival is approaching, and there are many banquets recently. It should not be difficult to go out. She must ask Aunt Tao to make proper arrangements. Su Yue always felt that there was a lot of mystery around her. Although the servants around her were respectful to her, Taozi was the most caring, Qiuzhu was the most loyal, and Chenxiang, Dingxiang and Aunt Tao's attitude towards her was a little hard to describe. It was better to say that they took advantage of her identity than to say that they treated her as their master. It was because Aunt Tao always had endless things to do and had to go out every few days. She never told her anything and was mysterious all day long.

Although Su Yue was curious, she was unwilling to get to the bottom of it. She knew that curiosity killed the cat. Now she just wanted to die in peace. She had no ambitions. She was just an ordinary person in her previous life. After traveling through time, she did not have any special skills. She was still the ordinary her, just a little younger, and youth was the only gift she had from traveling through time.

Su Yue hadn't decided when to go out yet, but Lu Ying, who was beside the Marquis, suddenly came to the door, bowed to Su Yue and said, "The Marquis invites you to go to Zhichunyuan."

Su Yue thought to herself that being summoned to Yun Zhichun Courtyard at this moment might not be a good thing. After she went back to the house and tidied herself up, she was about to step out of the door when Qin Yi walked in. Seeing that Su Yue seemed to be going out, he asked her where she was going. When he learned that Su Yue was going to Zhichun Courtyard, Qin Yi expressed his willingness to go with her without hesitation. So, Su Yue went to Zhichun Courtyard with Taozi and Qiuzhu.

As soon as she arrived at Zhichun Courtyard, Su Yue saw the Marquis and his wife sitting upright on the main seats with gloomy faces. Her heart sank, just as she expected. Moreover, with so many people in the room, it looked like a three-court trial. Qin Yi and Su Yue stepped forward to pay their respects, and then sat down in the empty seats. She couldn't recognize all the people in the room, and she couldn't match their names. She could only look at Taozi helplessly. What a lively scene! The first, second, and third rooms, all the adults were there, even Aunt Cheng was there, what on earth was going on?

Qin Yi had never expected that there would be so many people in Zhichun Courtyard, and what surprised him even more was that his father had returned home from Beidaying. However, when he saw his mother's gloomy face, he couldn't help but recall the scene when she forced him to marry Aunt Cheng, and a trace of uneasiness rose in his heart.

At this moment, the people of the entire Marquis' Mansion seemed to have gathered here. What exactly happened? Qin Yi pondered secretly. Just as he was puzzled, the Marquis's wife noticed Su Yue sitting next to Qin Yi, so she asked: "Su, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, why did you go to the lotus pond alone?"

Su Yue was secretly surprised by the sudden questioning from the Marquis' wife. She thought, the other party didn't even say a word of greeting, but asked such a straightforward question. Could it be that the matter has made progress and the murderer who framed Su Yue has been found? Or have they come up with some new conspiracy?

After thinking for a while, Su Yue replied: "If I say that I don't know about this, will you believe it? After all, I have a head injury and I can't remember many things. So, I really can't make up excuses to deceive you." There was helplessness and sincerity in his words.

"You don't know that someone saw you secretly meeting a stranger in the lotus pond that day. Do you admit your guilt?"

"Kneel down!" the Marquis's wife shouted sternly.

Su Yue thought to herself: Was there a moon that day? Normally, the full moon night of the 15th should be bright, but the weather was not good, and it was a rainy day. With just a few lanterns in the mansion, what can they illuminate? Saying that I had a secret meeting with a man from outside? It's nonsense! It would be more believable to say that I was kidnapped. After all, that blow with a club was really fierce. I still remember it vividly and am still scared! It seems that someone deliberately framed me and wanted to plant a false charge on me. As the saying goes, "If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext"!

Seeing that Su Yue did not respond, Madam Hou shouted again, "Do you admit your guilt?"

"I don't know." Su Yue replied.

"What an idiot! Get down on your knees!" Following this angry shout, the Marquis's wife slammed the table, stood up, and glared at the person in front of her with anger. Her voice shook the whole room.

"How dare you meet another man in private on the Mid-Autumn Festival, a day when the whole family reunites!" The Hou Madam's tone became more and more severe, as if she wanted to eat Su Yue alive. Then, she waved her hand without hesitation, signaling the maids and servants around her to go forward and hold Su Yue down.

At this moment, Qiu Zhu and Tao Zi stepped forward and quickly stood in front of Su Yue. They protected Su Yue tightly, their eyes were firm and resolute, and they had no intention of retreating.

Seeing this, the second wife was secretly worried. Su Yue was too stubborn and didn't even consider the situation. So, she quickly persuaded her, "Third wife, admit your mistake quickly! Look how angry you are with your mother-in-law. If there is anything, we can discuss it properly. Your mother-in-law will definitely forgive you." Her words were filled with anxiety and earnestness, hoping to persuade Su Yue to give in, to prove Su Yue's guilt, and to make fun of the first wife.

Su Yue finally realized that they had such a vicious plan! They were clearly trying to frame her for having an affair with someone so that they could put her to death! Seeing that the other party's murderous intent was getting stronger, Su Yue hurriedly ordered Taozi and Qiuzhu to retreat.

Then, he tilted his body slightly, tilted his head, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, looked directly at Qin Yi with cold eyes, and said: "Oh? You said that the emperor has issued an edict to grant our marriage, and you and I can neither divorce nor reconcile, so... can you kill me at will? Humph, not only do you want to take my life, you also want to tarnish my reputation. You are so cruel and unscrupulous, and you are really "admirable"! " At the end, Su Yue deliberately emphasized her tone, her eyes were full of contempt.

The room was silent for a moment. The marquis' wife turned around and glanced at the marquis. They wanted Su Yue to give up her position as the main wife and demoted her to a concubine, but they forgot about the imperial decree to grant the marriage. When did Su Yue become so sharp-tongued and so difficult to deal with?

At this time, a maid came in and said, "Han Qi is outside asking to see you."

Su Yue looked at Qin Yi with some curiosity and a bit of teasing and said silently: "Husband?"
