Rebirth with my ex-husband

Chapter 110

After copying the letter again, Su Yun's letter that was going to be sent to the Grand Empress was also delivered to Gu Shixing.

After Gu Shixing took the letter, he left the room to give instructions to Mo Tai.

Let him find an opportunity to deliver the letter to the Grand Concubine's personal maid, and before taking any action he must be on guard against any spies.

When the Grand Princess's personal maid received the letter, she was stunned for a moment after hearing the reminder from the person who sent it to her, "There are spies, don't get caught." When she came to her senses, the person had disappeared.

Although the maid doubted the identity of the visitor, she would rather believe it than not. After receiving the letter, she hid it and only opened it when she returned to her room.

Seeing the letter saying that Concubine Chen was plotting to murder her master in the palace, the maid felt uneasy. Because the matter was too serious, she finally handed it over to her master.

It was not until several days later that Su Yun heard that the Grand Concubine had met her own mother. On the second day, the Grand Concubine's mother hurried into the palace and begged the Queen to let Doctor Fu go to the Grand Palace to treat her daughter.

Each concubine in the palace had her own trusted imperial physician, and would not easily use the imperial physician that other concubines often used. Therefore, in the past few years, it was almost always the two imperial physicians who were fixed by Concubine De who treated the Grand Concubine.

The queen seemed to sense something unusual, so she agreed.

Just as Imperial Physician Fu arrived at the eldest prince's palace, Imperial Physician Liu from Concubine De's side followed shortly after, and the two imperial physicians were in the same place.

Concubine De secretly asked her own people in the eldest prince's mansion to replace the remaining medicine packets of her daughter-in-law, and also check whether the number of remaining medicine packets still matched, so as to avoid the imperial physician Fu noticing anything wrong.

But she didn't know that her daughter-in-law had already instructed the maid to hide two portions of the remaining dregs from the previous decoction, and then find an opportunity to stop Doctor Fu's sedan chair when he left and secretly deliver the dregs.

Later, it was when Mrs. Gu told Su Yun some news she heard from the Queen that she learned that Doctor Fu had found a strange medicine among the medicinal residues.

This medicine is a health-preserving medicine for ordinary women, but for women who have recently miscarried, long-term use will slowly erode the body like a chronic poison, and finally hollow out the woman's body until no other medicine can cure her.

The eldest imperial concubine's health is almost at the end of its life. Even if she rests well, she won't have many years left. But if she doesn't stop taking medicine and doesn't take care of herself, she may not survive this year.

The Queen began to investigate Imperial Physician Liu, but he committed suicide in prison and accused Concubine Chen before doing so.

And Concubine De was also placed under house arrest like she was in that lifetime, and was later demoted to Concubine De.

Li Ji first plotted against the Marquis Zhongyi Mansion, and then there was the matter of the concubine murdering the wife due to the poor discipline in the harem. Even though he had stopped favoring his concubines in the past two years, he still angered the emperor, who casually named him the Prince of Jing and gave him the fiefdom of Lingnan.

The process is different, but the ending is the same.

The matter between the eldest prince and the eldest princess has been settled for Su Yun.

At the end of October, Su Yun returned to the Su Mansion with Gu Shixing.

The Su family held a farewell banquet for the mother to tell others that little Liu was not an abandoned woman, but a concubine who was released from the Su family with honors and was changed from a concubine to a good wife.

Before the banquet started, Su Yun returned to the courtyard, changed her mother into new clothes, and combed her hair into a bun.

Although Xiao Liu looked good, her eyes were a little confused. She seemed to not know where she was, nor did she know who the young woman behind her who was combing her hair was.

Su Yun told her mother that the injustice she had suffered in the past had been investigated thoroughly and her reputation was restored.

"Mother, I didn't use those means to marry into the Marquis' Mansion. Now my father-in-law, mother-in-law, husband, and stepmother and father all know the truth of the matter, and they have all given me justice."

Little Liu blinked, as if she understood, but also as if she didn't.

At this time, Chu Yi knocked on the door, stood at the door, and said, "Madam, the mistress and Miss Liu are already outside the yard."

Su Yun helped her mother up, and little Liu asked hesitantly, "Where are we going?"

Su Yun said gently: "Go to the small hall. Your daughter is by your side, mother, don't be afraid."

Xiao Liu looked at the woman who seemed strange to her. Although she was a stranger, she trusted her from the bottom of her heart.

When they arrived at the small hall and were about to step over the threshold, Little Liu saw Liu Xiaoniang and Liu Da Niangzi. Her face changed and she immediately hid behind Su Yun, trembling.

Madam Liu looked at little Liu like this, and felt guilty and remorseful in her heart.

Su Yun felt sad when she called her mother like this, but in order to help her mother get out of the shadow of many years, she patiently said to her mother: "My dear, no one will scold you. If someone scolds you, I will scold you back. I will protect you, and no one can bully you."

Little Liu was still a little timid and stuck her head out to take a look into the hall.

Liu Xiaoniang had a pale face, but Mrs. Liu smiled at her, showing her kindness.

After all, she felt guilty. Moreover, the Sixth Girl's crime that year had been cleared, so the entire Marquisate felt that they owed her. She was the apple of their eye.

Not out of any debt, but also for the sake of the relationship between the two families, Madam Liu naturally had to humble herself and look at Xiaoniang Liu and Xiaoniang Liu Er to apologize.

Liu Xiaoniang could no longer hold her head up in the Su Mansion because of the incident in which Su Yuan instigated Su Yuyan to push Su Yun into the water. She lived a cautious life and tried her best to please her husband.

But a few days ago, she was suddenly called to the main courtyard. Only the mistress and her husband were in the hall, and on the table was the letter she had hidden twenty years ago.

When she saw the stolen letter, her face turned pale.

Her husband said nothing, but asked her coldly to apologize to Xiao Liu in front of the mistress and Yun.

If she behaved herself, the Su Mansion would still give her a place to stay. If she refused, she would be sold out.

The former still has a chance to survive, but the latter is doomed to die. How can she have any choice?

She could only choose the former.

Mrs. Liu hesitated for a long time and whispered to her daughter, "Is it true that no one will bully me?"

Su Yun felt bitter in her heart, but she nodded gently: "No one will bully me. Come in with me, okay?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu hesitated for a long time before pulling her daughter's sleeve and nodding.

Su Yun smiled, then took the girl's wrist and walked into the small hall together.

After entering the small hall, Su Yun asked his mother to sit down, and then glanced at Chu Yi.

Chu understood what he meant and brought up a cup of tea.

The tea was brought to Liu Xiaoniang.

Liu Xiaoniang's face became even uglier.

It would have been fine if her status as a concubine was lower than that of Xiao Liu, but Xiao Liu was still her own sister. She actually had to kneel down before her own sister. This kneeling was a huge loss of face.

But if I don’t kneel, I’m afraid my daughter and son will have a hard time in the future…

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoniang picked up the tea and knelt down in front of her sister.

Xiao Liu was startled by her sudden kneeling action and her eyes widened.

Liu Xiaoniang took a deep breath and said with a stiff face: "Twenty years ago, your reputation was damaged and you were forced to enter the mansion as a concubine. It was all my fault. I am sorry for you. Please drink this cup of apology tea and forgive me."

When Xiao Liu heard this, her expression suddenly became dazed. Somehow, her eyes gradually filled with tears, which rolled down her cheeks.

Su Yun exhaled and said to her mother, "You don't have to drink this cup of tea, and you don't have to forgive me."

When Liu Xiaoniang heard this, her face turned even darker.

Little Liu didn't speak for a long time, and her cloudy eyes gradually became clear.

She stiffened her neck, took a deep breath, and when her eyes were completely clear, she said in a choked voice: "I don't forgive you."

It would be best if the mother could soberly listen to Liu Xiaoniang's confession at this time. Then the pressure on her would gradually be reduced, and her condition would slowly improve.

Liu Xiaoniang gritted her teeth but dared not say a word.

Who could have thought that Xiao Liu's daughter would become the wife of a marquis? Who could have thought that the old accounts from twenty years ago would be brought up again?

One step wrong, step by step wrong.

Madam Liu glanced coldly at Xiaoniang Liu, who looked extremely unhappy, then retracted her gaze and said to Su Yun, "The banquet has been set up in front, it's time to serve."

Su Yun helped her mother up and left the hall with her stepmother, leaving only Liu Xiaoniang who was still kneeling on the ground.

After leaving the courtyard, in the alley, Madam Liu also walked beside Little Liu and sighed softly: "I have resented you for four years. I always thought that it was you who instigated the sixth girl to do such a thing, ruined the reputation of the Su family, and robbed Yan'er of her marriage, so I was confused. But now the truth is out, I was wrong."

Xiao Liu remembered what her daughter had said to her in the room just now. She looked at her daughter beside her and burst into tears.

——Her daughter suffered.

Perhaps it was a telepathic connection, Su Yun smiled gently at the young lady: "Young lady, my life is not hard. I have a husband who respects and loves me, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law are both reasonable people, so I live a good life in the Marquis' Mansion."

Little Liu wiped away her tears, paused, and bowed to Madam Liu: "Thank you, Madam."

Madam Liu said hurriedly, "Don't thank me. I am just compensating you and the sixth girl. When you leave the Su Mansion, the mansion will give you a shop and a farm, as well as 500 taels of silver. If you have any difficulties in the future, the Su Mansion will not sit idly by."

Xiao Liu still said: "Thank you."

Her body and mind had never felt so relaxed.

*

After the small banquet, Su Yun and Gu Shixing took their mother back to the Marquis' Mansion.

After all, my identity is somewhat inappropriate, so I won’t be living here permanently, just for half a year to recuperate during this time.

Afterwards, a small courtyard was built in a secluded area close to the Marquis' Mansion for Xiao Liu to live in, so that Su Yun could visit her often.

Just two days after bringing her mother to the Marquis' Mansion, Su Yun heard that Liu Xiaoniang was ill. The illness came so suddenly and severely that she fell directly into bed.

Kneeling down to admit his mistake in front of his own sister was so humiliating. He could no longer hold his head up in the mansion. How could he not get sick?

If there were no illness, how strong would the mind be?

Liu Xiaoniang reaped the consequences of her own actions, and Su Yun no longer cared.

She would go to accompany her mother every day, and her mother's condition improved. Gradually, she was more lucid than confused during the day, and her complexion was much better.

At night, the young couple lay on the bed and snuggled with each other.

Gu Shixing's memory gradually returned, but it seemed to be covered by a layer of fog. Some of it he remembered clearly, but some was very vague. No matter what he did, he could not remember it all.

But for Su Yun, whether he remembers or not, he doesn't force it. All the memories will be slowly recovered one day.

On the bed, he asked, "Do you have any regrets in this life?"

Su Yun lay in his arms, closed her eyes, and shook her head slightly: "Whether it's my reputation or my mother's innocence, all the regrets have been made up."

He pondered for a moment, then asked, "What about the next life? Are there any regrets or concerns that you can't let go of?"

Su Yun was silent for two breaths, and shook his head again: "I spent two wonderful years in that life, and there is nothing to regret or worry about."

His eyes narrowed slightly, showing a little more helplessness, and asked, "Really?"

Su Yun hummed softly.

The couple hugged each other and said nothing more.

After a while, Su Yun turned around, facing the inside of the bed, slowly opened his eyes, and his palms involuntarily covered his lower abdomen.

Regrets and concerns?

Maybe there was, but she should just bury the regret and concern, and he didn't need to blame herself with her.

But at this time, Gu Shixing turned around and pressed against her back, stretched his arm over her waist, and covered the back of her hand with his broad palm.

He whispered in her ear: "I know."

Su Yun was stunned for a moment: "You... know?"

"Well, I know. I guessed it from what you said after you woke up from your dream."

Su Yun was silent for a few breaths before she said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Gu Shixing gently rubbed her neck and said, "It's okay." After a pause, he said, "Tell me about it. How many months has it been?"

Su Yun exhaled and slowly said, "It has been more than two months, including this period of time. I only found out after returning to Jindu. It should have been during the daytime in Lingchuan."

Hearing this, Gu Shixing felt a slight sense of loss in his heart, but he did not show it. He just said, "In the future, we will have children."

Su Yun nodded slightly.

Gu Shixing hugged her tighter and spoke his thoughts slowly and softly, "No matter which life or reincarnation, I will always be by your side."

Su Yun turned around, hugged him from the front, and smiled gently: "Me too, no matter which life or reincarnation, I will never leave you."

As the night deepened, the moonlight became clear and the slightly open moonlight poured into the house. In the silence, it seemed as if a layer of mist was covering the entire house.

The couple slept in each other's arms on the bed, and the fog around them gradually thickened. Slowly, the surroundings turned white.

In the vast expanse of white, it seemed as if only the couple were left.

When the first ray of sunlight shone into the room through the gauze window, the light was a little dazzling on the big bed with the curtains not drawn.

Su Yun's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes slightly because of the bright light.

He raised his hand slightly and blocked the light with the back of his hand.

When he was about to raise his other hand, he found that the hand of the person next to him seemed to be entangled by the Buddhist beads.

I just woke up and was confused for a moment. I loosened my hand and wanted to take it out from the Buddhist beads. Then, with a "snap" sound, the beads seemed to break.

After taking two breaths, Su Yun came back to his senses. He raised his upper body slightly and looked down.

Her hands and Gu Shixing's hands were loosely entangled with the broken Buddhist beads.

Su Yun frowned, feeling a little uneasy for some reason.

She sat up slowly with her body stiff, took a few deep breaths, and then turned to look at the person lying inside.

Although his face was still handsome, he was pale and thin.

At that moment, the pupils shrank, and the eyes slowly widened.

Could it be that... those were all dreams and she never returned to her previous life?

Su Yun's lips were trembling slightly, and even the hand that was reaching out to his shoulder was trembling slightly.

The moment his hand fell, his eyeballs rolled slightly under his eyelids.

Seeing this, Su Yun's dull eyes gradually regained their luster, and she looked at his eyes with expectation.

It was just a moment, but it seemed like he had been waiting for a very long time. His eyelashes trembled and then his eyelids slowly opened.

Gu Shixing half opened his eyes, and when he saw the surprised and happy expression on his wife's face, he was about to speak, but he found that his throat was very dry and he had no strength in his body.

After a moment, he understood.

——They are back again.

——Back and forth, twists and turns.

He smiled weakly at Su Yun and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm awake."

Su Yun's defense was instantly broken, and she threw herself on him crying with joy, crying and laughing.

Maybe they had briefly returned to their previous life and came back again. Or maybe returning to their previous life was just a dream.

But no matter which life they are in, they have their relatives, and their relatives are all living very well.

No matter which lifetime it is, as long as it is just each other, that is enough.

Su Yun held his hand tightly, interlocking their fingers. Although there were still tears on her face, her face was filled with smiles.

She raised herself slightly from his chest and met his eyes, with a faint smile in each other's eyes.

The day has dawned, the dream has ended, and the life is still long.
