After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy
Chapter 144 Past Events
The doorman was startled and felt a little unhappy. He thought to himself, it was only dawn now, who was this person? He came to the Duke's Mansion so early.
Seeing Wanqiu helping Ye Qingyu get out of the carriage, the doorman rubbed his eyes, only then was he sure that he was not hallucinating.
Why did you come so early today, cousin?
"Miss Cousin, why are you here so early?"
It is only the end of the Yin hour now, and the servants have just woken up, but the masters are still asleep.
"Is Third Aunt awake yet?"
The doorman replied, "The Third Madam usually gets up at the beginning of the morning, but she hasn't gotten up yet."
Ye Qingyu nodded, "Yes, I understand."
The doorman said again, "My cousin, the Duke has woken up and is exercising in the martial arts field."
Ye Qingyu paused, "Thank you very much."
When the doorman saw Ye Qingyu walking quickly into the mansion, he felt that the cousin was particularly cold today.
Ye Qingyu did not go to see her grandfather, but went to the west courtyard where the third house was located. Nanny Xia was directing the maids and servants to clean the courtyard. When she saw Ye Qingyu coming, her eyes were full of surprise.
"Miss, why are you here so early?"
Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "You're up early. Is Third Auntie up yet?"
Nanny Xia said, "Madam has just woken up. Miss, please wait a moment. I will go and report to the Third Madam."
Ye Qingyu nodded, "Thank you for your help."
Ye Qingyu sat in the side hall waiting. After a while, she saw Nanny Xia come back and said, "Miss, the Third Madam wants you to go to the inner room."
Ye Qingyu nodded and followed Nanny Xia to her third aunt's bedroom. Xu was sitting in front of the dressing table, and the maid was doing her hair and putting on makeup.
Seeing Ye Qingyu coming, Xu blinked her sleepy eyes and said with a smile, "Qingqing, you came early today. You are usually the one who can sleep in the most. What happened today?"
Ye Qingyu tried hard to appear calm, but Xu was the most attentive and noticed something was wrong with her. She told the maid in the room, "You guys go down first."
Ye Qingyu and Xu were the only ones left in the room. Xu asked, "Qingqing, is something wrong?"
Ye Qingyu pursed her lips, trying hard to suppress the moisture in the corners of her eyes. "Third aunt, why did my mother marry into the Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion?"
Xu's gentle expression paused, "Qingqing, why are you asking this?" This child must know something.
A murderous look surged across Ye Qingyu's pretty face. "Because of the Grand Princess of Shaoyang, right?"
Xu's expression was stern. "Qingqing, where did you hear that? Your mother..."
"I know everything. Mother was supposed to marry General Xiao."
Xu: "Qingqing, you..."
Tears rolled down Ye Qingyu's eyes, "Third aunt, my mother, she was murdered! She didn't die of illness!"
"what!"
Xu stood up in shock and looked at Ye Qingyu in disbelief. "Qingqing, what do you mean by that? How did you know that?"
Ye Qingyu shed silent tears, her clear eyes filled with cold anger, "Third aunt, tell me first, I want to know everything about mother!"
She wants to know who is the culprit behind her mother's early death!
Xu calmed down her shock and said, "Qingqing, you know who the murderer is, right?"
"Yes."
"Who is it?" Xu asked through gritted teeth.
"Grand Princess of Shaoyang."
Xu's rage surged, "It's definitely her! It's definitely her!"
"She deserves to die! Damn it!" Xu sobbed in pain. She always thought that Gu Qingshuang died of illness, and no one had ever doubted anything. Unexpectedly, no one would have thought that Qingshuang was actually killed by her!
"Why does she do that? Is it because she's a princess? Qingshuang has already given up her fiancé and had to marry that villain Ye Wencheng, but she still won't let her go!"
Ye Qingyu comforted Xu, "Third aunt, I will avenge my mother. Please tell me everything about her."
Xu gradually calmed down, and recalled her friend with a gentle expression, "Your mother is the most stunning girl in Kyoto. In those years, the men who liked your mother were so many that they lined up all the way to the city gate. Fortunately, she was engaged to Xiao Yu since she was a child.
General Xiao was a good friend of your grandfather's. When he heard your grandmother had given birth to a daughter, he took advantage of your grandfather's joy and got him drunk to arrange this marriage. At that time, Madam Xiao had just given birth to her eldest son, Xiao Yu. Your grandfather was a man of honor, and even though he had arranged the marriage in a drunken daze, he still acknowledged it. Because of this incident, your grandmother often complained about your grandfather.
Gu Qingshuang is spoiled by her father who is like a daughter slave, and protected by her three biological brothers. She grew up in a carefree environment. She is smart and gentle, with a beautiful and elegant appearance. She is as talented as men and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Xiao Yu grew up with the three brothers of the Gu family, so he has been familiar with Gu Qingshuang since childhood.
When the two grew up, they knew that they were engaged. Although they had feelings for each other, they kept their feelings within the bounds of propriety. With the three brothers of the Gu family watching, Xiao Yu had to do it secretly even if he wanted to see Gu Qingshuang.
General Xiao and his wife were extremely satisfied with Gu Qingshuang, the future eldest daughter-in-law, and looked forward to marrying her as soon as she reached the age of 15.
If it weren't for the autumn hunt that year, Xiao Yu was riding on a tall horse, the young man was full of vigor and his smile was as bright as the morning sun, which amazed Princess Shaoyang at that time. She fell in love with this young man with a bright smile at first sight. After asking around, she found out that he was General Xiao's eldest son and that he was engaged.
However, how could the spoiled and domineering Princess Shaoyang, who was favored by the late emperor, give up the man she liked? She took the initiative to meet Xiao Yu and told him bluntly that she liked him and that as long as he became her son-in-law, he would have any future he wanted. But Xiao Yu refused.
Seeing that Xiao Yu and Gu Qingshuang were about to set a date for their wedding, Princess Shaoyang found Ye Wencheng, who was then the prince of Qingyuan. She deliberately had someone push Gu Qingshuang into the pool and arranged for Ye Wencheng to jump in to save her, thus ruining her innocence.
He also arranged for Ye Wencheng to make a scene in front of the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, saying that he had ruined the innocence of the young lady of the Gu family and that he would take responsibility for it and would marry her.
In this situation, even if the Xiao family and Xiao Yu didn't care, it would be bad to tarnish the Xiao family's reputation. The Duke's Mansion still withdrew the Xiao family's marriage, but the Duke's Mansion also hated Ye Wencheng. The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion sent a lot of thank-you gifts to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, but did not plan to marry their daughter. Even if Gu Qingshuang became a nun, the Duke would not marry his daughter to Ye Wencheng.
As soon as the Duke's Mansion canceled the Xiao family's marriage, the late emperor immediately issued an imperial decree to grant the marriage between Xiao Yu and Princess Shaoyang. At the instigation of Princess Shaoyang, the late emperor also summoned the Duke to the imperial study alone to inquire about Gu Qingshuang and Ye Wencheng, and implied that he wanted to make a good marriage come together.
After Gu Qingshuang found out, she was afraid that her affairs would implicate her family, so she agreed to the marriage proposal from the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion.
