After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

Chapter 145 Your Business Is My Business

Since then, the Xiao family and the Duke's Mansion have had no more contacts, and the entire Xiao family went to the northwest to guard it. Xiao Yu went to the northwest since Princess Shaoyang gave birth to Princess Yongjia, and only came back once every few years.

Ye Qingyu listened to Xu's slow narration, the emotions in her eyes changing unpredictably.

"Aunt, do you know when General Xiao returned to Kyoto three years ago?"

Xu was stunned. She thought for a moment and suddenly seemed to remember something. "Yes, that's right. It was shortly before your mother passed away!"

Xu gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, it was Qingshuang and I who went to Nanhua Temple to burn incense. At that time, Xiao Yu also went to Nanhua Temple with Princess Shaoyang! Your mother and I saw him from afar!"

So, my mother fell "sick" after returning from Nanhua Temple!

Very good! Great Princess Shaoyang!

Just because her mother and General Xiao met by chance at Nanhua Temple, she was so jealous that she wanted to kill her mother!

It was clearly she who forced General Xiao to accompany her to Nanhua Temple!

Ye Qingyu didn't even notice that her lips were bitten, and the bright red blood flowed down her snow-white chin.

"Alright, you're indeed the arrogant and domineering Grand Princess! Very good! I, Ye Qingyu, swear! The hatred for killing my mother is irreconcilable!"

"Qingqing, good girl, you still have us and your grandfather. Leave this matter to us!"

Ye Qingyu's crystal tears fell silently. "No, Third Aunt, please don't tell anyone about this. I've already made up my mind. Now I just have to wait for the right time."

Xu's face was solemn as she disapproved, "Qingqing, she's the princess. Even if she's not favored by the current emperor, she's still a member of the royal family. You can't bring her down with just this little evidence in your hand."

The coldness in Ye Qingyu's eyes seemed to freeze everything. "Who said I only have these evidences of her crimes? She has been arrogant and domineering for so many years, and I don't know how many disasters she has done. Your Majesty has not touched her because she is still relatively law-abiding. But if she provokes public anger and does something against heaven and earth, then even if she is a princess, it doesn't matter. If the emperor breaks the law, he will be punished like a commoner!"

Xu looked at her niece in astonishment. She felt strange for the first time. "Qingqing, did you know this a long time ago?"

Ye Qingyu suppressed the coldness on her face and said, "I had some guesses before, but it was only yesterday that I finally confirmed it."

"Third aunt, please don't tell grandpa and the others about this. They can't be distracted right now."

"Remember, no matter what happens next, our Duke's Mansion will be safe and sound."

Ye Qingyu took her third aunt's hand and gave her instructions in a serious tone.

Xu sighed, "Qingqing, your mother's death is the revenge of our Duke's Mansion and Princess Shaoyang. You, a little girl, can't bear it all by yourself."

"You're in great danger. Princess Shaoyang is no pushover. If she knew you knew the cause of your mother's death, she would definitely silence you!"

Ye Qingyu smiled, "Third aunt, don't worry about this. Shaoyang is such an arrogant person. She may have forgotten that she was the one who killed my mother!"

Ye Qingyu smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter, I will make her remember it!"

At this moment, Nanny Xia knocked on the door and asked, "Madam, have you finished talking with my cousin?"

Ye Qingyu said calmly, "Madam Xia, please come in."

"Third aunt, I'm leaving first."

Xu hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay, "Since you're here, have breakfast before leaving."

Ye Qingyu shook her head, "I still have to go to Prince Chu's Mansion."

Xu sighed softly, "Okay, go ahead."

Ye Qingyu left the Duke's Mansion and went directly to the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

At this time, Shen Yanli was receiving acupuncture from Doctor Ge and was unable to move.

Seeing Ye Qingyu coming, his eyes were full of surprise, "Qingqing, you came so early, have you had breakfast?"

"Lin Feng, bring me the snacks I brought out from the palace yesterday."

He looked at Ye Qingyu with tenderness in his eyes. "Chef Zhou from the Imperial Kitchen specially makes snacks for the Empress Dowager. Her snacks are sweet but not greasy. Try them and see if you like them. If you do, I'll bring them to you next time."

Lin Feng placed an exquisite food box in front of Ye Qingyu, "Miss Ye, this is something our prince shamelessly asked the Empress Dowager for."

Ye Qingyu opened the food box. There were three layers inside, and each layer contained a plate of exquisite and delicious snacks.

Ye Qingyu's heart, which was originally filled with hatred, suddenly calmed down.

She didn't move her heart, but said, "I came to you to ask for your help."

Shen Yanli also noticed that she looked unhappy, "Qingqing, your business is my business, just speak frankly."

Ye Qingyu bit her lip lightly. Shen Yanli noticed the wound on her lip and said, "Lin Feng, bring me my best medicine for external injuries."

Shen Yanli took the jade bottle handed over by Lin Feng and said in a gentle voice, "Qingqing, this hemostatic ointment can not only heal the wound quickly, but also won't leave scars. Come, sit on the edge of the couch and I'll apply the medicine to you."

Ye Qingyu shook her head and refused, "Don't bother with that. It's just a minor wound. The bleeding has already stopped."

Shen Yanli looked at her straightly, "But, I want to apply medicine to you."

Ye Qingyu felt warm in her heart when he looked at her, and she sat down obediently beside the couch.

Shen Yanli applied the medicine on Ye Qingyu's lips as gently as a feather, with a frown on his face as if he was doing something very important.

Ye Qingyu stared at his jade-like face, with an expression that couldn't be more serious, as if she was facing a great enemy. Her cold heart seemed to be warmed instantly.

"Okay." Shen Yanli breathed a sigh of relief. "From now on, no matter how big the problem is, don't hurt yourself."

"Well," Ye Qingyu looked at him with scorching eyes, "Shen Yanli, I want to find evidence of the crime committed by the Grand Princess of Shaoyang."

Shen Yanli's expression remained calm without a trace of change, and he spoke gently, "Okay, how long will it take for Qingqing to finish?"

Ye Qingyu was a little surprised. "Aren't you going to ask me why I want to investigate her?"

Princess Shaoyang is his aunt after all, so he just agreed without blinking an eye?

Shen Yanli handed the hemostatic ointment to Ye Qingyu and said, "Remember to ask the maid to apply the ointment to you every day."

Ye Qingyu frowned, "Shen Yanli, I want to talk to you about serious matters."

Shen Yanli had a gentle smile on his lips. "I know what Qingqing is going to say. Father was so tolerant that he spared her life. If she had really done something against the will of heaven and earth, no one could have saved her. Besides, she should have died long ago!"

Shen Yanli's voice grew cold, and Ye Qingyu then remembered that the death of Queen Chunyi seemed to have something to do with Princess Shaoyang.
