After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

Ye Qingyu looked up at the Grand Princess with a smile on her face, "Your Highness, my clothes are dirty. I'm afraid that they might offend Your Highness, so I'll leave now."

Princess Yongjia suddenly walked into the flower hall and looked at her with concern. "Qingyu, you'd better change your clothes before leaving. If someone sees us, they will say that my princess mansion is not hospitable enough."

Ye Qingyu looked at her dimly, her eyes burning. "Don't worry, Princess. I just accidentally spilled some tea. It's nothing serious. It's getting late now, so I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave now."

Xu frowned, a sharp look flashing in her eyes, "Yes, it's getting late, and Qingyu has promised the Duke to accompany him for lunch, so I'll take my leave now."

The princess smiled and said, "In that case, Third Madam, take care. Yue'er, see Third Madam out."

"No need to trouble my cousin, aunt. I am traveling with Madam Gu and Miss Ye. Let me see them out." Shen Yanli suddenly appeared and said calmly.

The eldest princess was stunned for a moment. She didn't even know Shen Yanli had come.

Although the Empress Dowager said she wanted to see Shen Yanli, and she also invited Shen Yanli, she had never attended such a flower viewing banquet since Shen Yanli's legs were crippled. How could he actually come this time?

"Yanli, when did you arrive? Why didn't you tell my aunt?"

Shen Yanli said lightly, "Aunt, don't worry. I'm just here to go through the motions and give an explanation to the Empress Dowager." His tone was helpless.

The eldest princess also guessed that the Empress Dowager must have forced him to come, "In that case, I'll trouble you to help my aunt send the Third Madam off."

Shen Yanli nodded and left with Ye Qingyu and Xu.

The Grand Princess looked at Shen Yanli's disappearing back and couldn't help feeling a little regretful. If his leg was okay, the throne would have been passed down to other princes.

Shen Yanli sent the person to the Duke's Mansion before leaving.

Xu looked at Ye Qingyu with some suspicion as she went to talk to Shen Yanli, and then saw her staring at the departing carriage, her little face shining with a smile.

"Qingqing, when did you become so familiar with His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu?"

Ye Qingyu smiled a little guiltily, "It's just recently. Grandfather should be leaving the court. Let's go into the mansion quickly."

Ye Qingyu changed the subject with a few words, and the two of them went to see the Duke.

After returning from the Duke's Mansion, Ye Qingyu really found the jade pendant left by her mother.

She specially made a sachet, put the jade pendant inside, and asked Mo Shu to send it to the Prince of Chu's Palace.

Looking at the intricately carved and crystal clear jade pendant in his hand, a gentle smile appeared on Shen Yanli's handsome face, which was always cold.

Jiang Bei smiled and said, "Is this the token of love that Miss Ye gave you?"

Shen Yanli looked a little awkward, "Don't talk nonsense, what token of love."

Jiang Bei smiled secretly, "Since Miss Ye gave you a token of love, you should give one in return."

Shen Yanli looked at the jade pendant in his hand, wondering what gift he should give Ye Qingyu in return.

Two days later, someone came from the Chu Palace. He was the commander of Jiangbei.

"Meet Miss Ye."

"Commander Jiang, there's no need to be so polite."

Jiang Bei presented a brocade box with both hands, "This is a great return gift from our prince. Please accept it."

A smile spread across Ye Qingyu's face. "Is this given to me by His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu?" She took it happily.

Seeing her smiling face and no sign of rejection, Commander Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, this is made by the prince himself. Please accept it."

Ye Qingyu's soft eyes lit up. She opened the brocade box and saw a simple and elegant white jade hibiscus hairpin inside. It was polished very smoothly, and it was obvious that the maker had put a lot of effort into it.

Ye Qingyu was filled with joy and delight. She hadn't expected Shen Yanli to actually give her a return gift, something he had made himself. Did this mean that he was also satisfied with her and had no objection to her proposal?

"Thank His Highness for me. I like his return gift very much."

Commander Jiang's tense expression relaxed. "Yes, I will definitely pass on your message."

Commander Jiang turned and walked out of Wanyan Pavilion. He looked back and couldn't help but feel happy for His Highness.

At first, he was worried that Miss Ye would dislike the hairpin made by His Highness. After all, women all like gorgeous and beautiful jewelry. He also advised His Highness to change the return gift, but His Highness did not listen. Although the hairpin was made by His Highness himself, it seemed a bit simple to him, and he was afraid that Miss Ye would dislike it.

Fortunately, Miss Ye is not such a vulgar person.

Inside the room, Ye Qingyu held the hairpin in her hand and admired it lovingly. Wanqiu didn't know whether to be happy or sad when she saw the young lady so happy.

Although His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is a good man and the young lady's savior, he is disabled after all. If he really marries the young lady in the future, the young lady will have to endure more hardships.

"I didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu has such skills. Although simple, it is very exquisitely made." Wanqiu praised sincerely.

Ye Qingyu smiled brightly, "Well, it's really good. Wanqiu, bring it on for me to see."

Wanqiu took off the hairpin on Ye Qingyu's head and put on the hibiscus jade hairpin. Ye Qingyu looked at herself in the mirror and felt that she matched the hairpin very well.

Wanqiu smiled and said, "It's quite suitable."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "His craftsmanship is naturally perfect."

Wanqiu looked at the young lady and still said nothing.

A month later, the palace examination.

Ye Qingyu made an appointment with Ye Qingya early in the morning to go to Wanfu Restaurant, waiting to watch the parade of the top scholar.

Qingya ate the dessert with a smile, "Big sister, do you think the Third Young Master will be chosen as the top scholar by the Emperor? It would be really great if he did."

Ye Qingyu's brows relaxed, a smile flickering in her eyes, "I believe that my third cousin will be able to display his talents."

Ye Qingya smiled and said, "If it really is the Third Young Master, he would have passed the imperial examination with the highest rank. This is the first person in our Daqing Dynasty to pass the imperial examination with the highest rank."

Ye Qingyu's eyes were full of sparkling light.

Naturally, she hoped that her third cousin would be successful and that the Duke's Mansion would be proud of him.

"Look, it's coming out, it's coming out!"

"Wow, what a handsome top scholar! I've watched top scholars for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen such a handsome one."

"Wow, this is the Third Young Master of the Duke's Mansion. Oh my god, he's so handsome! Normally, the Third Young Master is already incredibly handsome in a green bamboo brocade robe, but I didn't expect him to look so handsome in a bright red champion's robe. He's like a fairy!"

Ye Qingya also saw the person riding in front, and happily pulled Ye Qingyu's sleeve, jumping and pointing with a smile, "Big sister, it really is the Third Young Master. Wow, he is so powerful."

Ye Qingyu looked at the man sitting upright on a tall horse, dressed in a bright red champion's uniform, with a dignified and self-possessed look on his handsome and elegant face, and a decent smile on his lips. Countless handkerchiefs of young ladies fluttered towards him like fallen leaves, but he dodged them lightly, without being touched by a single leaf. Suddenly, he looked up at her, and nodded at her with a doting look in his elegant smile.
