After leaving Su Yuan's yard, Liang Yinyin heard that Zhou had fainted.

She immediately went to take care of Zhou.

Before going to bed, Su Yuan also learned that Zhou had fainted from anger, and she slept peacefully for the first time.

When people are in a good mood, they eat well and sleep comfortably.

When Su Yuan woke up the next day, she had a leisurely breakfast. Two groups of imperial doctors came to Zhou's courtyard. When Nanny Kui came to the Marquis' Mansion to visit Zhou, she also invited Su Yuan to the palace.

Empress Defei wants to see Su Yuan.

Su Yuan didn't want to enter the palace, but she had no choice but to follow Nanny Kui into the carriage.

In the carriage, Su Yuan lowered her eyes and remained silent. Nanny Kui wanted to say something, but ultimately chose to remain silent.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate. Su Yuan followed Nanny Kui into the harem and went to Concubine De's Cui Yu Palace.

This was the first time Su Yuan met Gu Qingqing.

Gu Qingqing is quite good-looking and is about 50% similar to Gu Zhiquan, but Gu Qingqing is definitely smarter than Gu Zhiquan.

Su Yuan bowed and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

Gu Qingqing first looked at Su Yuan, then smiled and called Su Yuan over.

"Sister-in-law, why are you so polite? Come and sit down."

Su Yuan went over and sat down, still polite and courteous, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Sister-in-law, is mother okay?" Gu Qingqing asked with a worried look on her face.

Su Yuan shook her head: "Your Majesty, this matter is all my fault. Mother was irritated by me.

Seeing that the shop was making losses every year, my wife sold it, and the money from the sale was also spent by me.

My mother fainted from anger because of this incident, and I don’t know what her current situation is like.”

Hearing this, Gu Qingqing gritted his teeth in his heart.

Su Yuan, who is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything!

Why is she selling something out of the blue?

Not to mention that the mother fainted from anger, she was almost angry to death.

"Where did my sister-in-law spend the money? Can you tell me about it?" Gu Qingqing asked.

Even if she doesn't tell Zhou, she can at least tell her, right?

Su Yuan glanced at Gu Qingqing and pretended to be embarrassed.

Gu Qingqing frowned slightly and coaxed softly, "Sister-in-law, don't you still trust me? Don't worry, I won't spread it."

Su Yuan received Gu Qingqing's assurance, and then she spoke, "Your Majesty, I have been married to the Marquis for many years, but the Marquis has always treated me indifferently.

For the past eight years, Huan'er has been the only heir in the mansion. I, your wife, could not bear to see the Marquis's descendants wither away, so I spent my money on helping the Marquis have more children."

Gu Qingqing: ...

Su Yuan meant that she spent the money on finding a woman for Gu Zhiquan?

Su Yuan...

She didn't know what to say to Su Yuan.

So many years have passed, and Gu Zhiquan has treated her like this, yet she still tries her best to please him.

Su Yuan is truly a passionate person.

Now that things have come to this, what else can she do?

If the shop were not returned, Su Yuan would have spent all the money.

She had no choice but to stop caring about it, so as not to alienate Su Yuan from them.

It doesn't matter if these shops in Kyoto are gone, the Li family still has five trading companies.

She naturally wouldn't lose the big picture for the sake of small gains, so she still had to keep Su Yuan stable.

"Sister-in-law! My brother is really going too far. It makes things difficult for me." Gu Qingqing held Su Yuan's hand and said sympathetically.

Su Yuan smiled and shook her head, "It is my good fortune to be able to marry the Marquis in this life. I will certainly cherish this good fortune and be a good mistress of the Zhennan Marquis's Mansion.

Don't worry, my lady. I will explain everything to you once you've calmed down."

Gu Qingqing: "Mother has always been partial to my brother. I hope my sister-in-law won't blame her."

"How could I blame my mother? If I have to blame someone, it should be myself. It's because I failed to capture the Marquis' heart. It's because I don't have the ability." Su Yuan said, sighing with shame.

Gu Qingqing secretly criticized Su Yuan in his heart.

Su Yuan is quite self-aware and knows how to look for the reasons in herself.

Gu Qingqing comforted Su Yuan and helped her to be more open-minded.

Su Yuan cooperated with her to play the role of a sister-in-law who sympathized with each other.

Gu Qingqing asked Su Yuan to stay in the palace for lunch before letting Nanny Kui take her out of the palace.

When they returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Li Mo brought over a man in his twenties. The man had a handsome appearance and was quite pleasing to the eye.

"My name is Shao Qing, nice to meet you, Madam." Shao Qing bowed.

Su Yuan asked, "Who are you to my brother?"

"I'm just a secret guard." Shao Qing explained.

"No matter who you were before, if you stay by my side from now on, you can only be loyal to me!

Of course, I won't do anything to hurt my brother, you can rest assured about that." Su Yuan first explained to him that if Shao Qing was fickle and dared to betray her in the future, she would not forgive him.

Shao Qing lowered his head and said, "I obey your command."

Su Yuan asked Li Mo to take him downstairs and arranged him in the guard room in the side courtyard.

Su Yuan took a nap. When she woke up, she went to visit Zhou.

She still had to put on a show, otherwise Gu Qingqing would know that she was pretending to obey him but actually disobeying him.

As long as Gu Qingqing doesn't break up with them, she will continue to act with them.

Gu Qingqing's son is only two years old now and is the youngest son of His Majesty Sima Yunlong.

Sima Tu has three older brothers and two older sisters.

Gu Qingqing wanted her son to inherit the throne, so she had to win over the forces that belonged to her.

Queen Lu has two sons. The eldest son is twenty years old this year, and the third prince is fifteen years old this year.

In terms of the legitimate wife or the eldest son, Sima Tu has no chance of succession.

In the original novel, the eldest prince Sima Gong inherited the throne.

However, in less than two years, he was replaced by Sima You.

The eldest prince Sima Gong was lustful, greedy for money, and cruel. He had no regard for brotherly love and targeted his own brother everywhere, wanting to kill him.

Sima You also endured it again and again, but finally had to rebel against Sima Gong.

Cheng Lang was framed and died tragically when Sima Gong was emperor.

During the two years that Sima Gong was in power, treacherous ministers were in power, the people of Dongyu were living in misery, and even Duke Yu of Yu, Lu Qin, was sentenced to death by his own nephew.

She and other women are also people of Dongyu.

If possible, she also wants to do something for the people of the world!

Of course, it is impossible to rely on her alone. The affairs of the court still have to rely on Cheng Lang.

She told Cheng Lang the news, which was considered as saving Cheng Lang's life, and it was just a way to repay him for helping her so much.

When she arrived at Zhou's room, Liang Yinyin was feeding Zhou medicine.

While drinking the medicine, Zhou scolded Su Yuan.

"Su Yuan, that bitch! She's a disaster! Sooner or later, she'll drag down our Zhennan Marquis Mansion!"

Su Yuan, who was standing at the door, couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

Zhou actually guessed it right.

As long as Su Yuan is around, there will never be peace in the Zhennan Marquis Mansion.

"Aunt, don't be angry for now. The most important thing is to take care of your health." Liang Yinyin advised.

Su Yuan cannot be divorced, and Zhou cannot be devastated from this.

Otherwise, her position in the mansion will become increasingly embarrassing.
