Su Yi took a breath.

"Aunt! Please think of a solution quickly! Gu Lang, I'm afraid something has happened to Gu Lang!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Sun scolded unhappily.

Gu Lingyi guessed something. She stared at Song Mingli coldly, "Could it be you..."

Song Mingli snorted and laughed, "If I did anything, Aunt Su would probably not have the chance to kneel here and throw dirty water on my head."

"But since you're worried about a grown man like Prince Gu getting lost, I'll ask my eldest brother to go look for him."

Song Mingli called a servant and asked him to go to the Song family to deliver a letter and ask his elder brother to find someone.

"Ask your elder brother to find someone?" Gu Lingyi asked sharply, "If this isn't just a perfunctory response, what is it?"

"What status do you have in the capital today, the Song family? You have been pushed to the margins! What ability does your eldest brother have? Can he still find someone?"

Song Mingli smiled and said, "I think Aunt Su knows whether my eldest brother is capable or not, right?"

"After all, last time someone deliberately bought a poisonous snake and harmed the descendants of the Gu family, my eldest brother investigated the matter and found the witness within a day."

"Does Aunt Su still remember?"

Su Yi's face tightened and she remained silent.

"Is there such a thing?" Gu Lingyi asked Sun.

Sun winked at her and told her not to talk too much.

How could Gu Lingyi not say a word? She didn't come back today for nothing.

She also brought back two pieces of cloth. If she got nothing, wouldn't she be losing money?

"You hold a grudge against my elder brother! How can he be so dedicated if I ask him to find someone?"

Gu Lingyi said, "Now that I'm back, I won't sit idly by and watch the Gu family's affairs!"

"Take my husband's name card and go to Jinwuwei and find the left lieutenant! Tell him that my eldest brother disappeared mysteriously and I suspect it has something to do with my sister-in-law! Ask him to bring someone here as soon as possible!"

Sun grabbed Gu Lingyi's hand and said, "No, don't alert the authorities, okay?"

"Mother! What are you afraid of? My brother is gone! Are you still afraid of alerting the authorities?"

"You are afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, that's why you are calling..."

Gu Lingyi glanced at Song Mingli and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

But her meaning was very clear - this was why Song Mingli was the only one in power in the Marquis' Mansion!

Today, the daughter of the Gu family is back! She must severely suppress Song Mingli!

No one in her parents' family helps her, and she even loses face in her husband's family!

Her husband has recently taken two concubines! If this continues, when will she be able to give birth to a legitimate son and secure a place in the inner house?

Song Mingli looked at Gu Lingyi, who looked more and more like Sun in appearance, demeanor, and even accent, and couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.

At the beginning, when she sent Gu Lingyi to get married, she gave her a lot of dowry!

At that time, her sister-in-law held her hand and said with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, sister-in-law. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do!"

"My brother is unreliable, and the Gu family relies entirely on my sister-in-law to support it! No matter whether my brother comes back in the future, you will always be my most respected sister-in-law!"

"If my brother comes back, not only will he not be grateful to you, but he will also bully you! Tell me and I will vent your anger for you!"

The heartfelt words spoken back then are still ringing in my ears.

The little girl back then has completely changed.

Gu Lingyi didn't know yet that something bad would soon happen in her husband's family.

If she knew, I wonder if she would still run back to her parents' home and show off?

Song Mingli looked indifferent, and Zi Su asked her in a low voice, "In this case, do you still want to tell the young master?"

"Since the Gu family doesn't trust you, there's no need to trouble you to go find someone." Song Mingli said calmly.

Sun was anxious. She tugged at Gu Lingyi's sleeve and whispered, "Can the left lieutenant you are looking for find your brother?"

Gu Lingyi frowned and said, "Mom, why are you so confused? As long as we catch Song Mingli, we can find my brother! My brother must be in her hands!"

“I told you I wasn’t there, but you didn’t believe me. As a result, I delayed saving Gu Qingshan, and it’s your responsibility as my sister.” Song Mingli said.

Sun was anxious.

Gu Lingyi glared at Sun fiercely, "Do you still want me to help you? If you want me to help you, you have to listen to me."

Su Yi quickly expressed her position, “I believe the Second Miss!”

Gu Lingyi curled her lips at Su Yi and said, "When I find my brother, don't worry, I will definitely persuade him to divorce Song and make you his wife."

"Thank you, Second Miss!" Su Yi said in surprise.

Song Mingli was standing by and found it funny. She stood up and said, "Since you have an idea, let's do it according to your idea."

"Stop! Today is my mother's birthday! Are you here empty-handed?" Gu Lingyi said.

Song Mingli had already stepped over the threshold and stood under the porch.

The sunlight outside the porch shone on her, and her moon-white dress reflected a soft light.

Every move she made was full of brilliance, dazzling people.

"This is... the new Shu brocade material!" Gu Lingyi then noticed her clothes.

Such a luster is really impossible to ignore.

"Princess Taihua has indeed rewarded you with the material! Since you have obtained this good thing, you should present it to your mother!" Gu Lingyi said sternly.

Sun nodded, "Yes! Your son is a marquis, and I am your mother-in-law! My dynasty values ​​filial piety, and you are so unfilial, aren't you afraid that I will sue you?"

"Are beggars so confident nowadays?" Song Mingli asked the people around him.

The servants inside and outside the house all lowered their heads and sneered when they heard this.

Gu Lingyi's face turned red, "Who are you scolding?"

"It's rare to see a married girl coming to her parents' home to beg for money, and to do so in such an arrogant manner." Song Mingli looked at Gu Lingyi.

Gu Lingyi was a very proud person, so when she heard the words "extortionate", she immediately pounced on Song Mingli and wanted to fight with him.

The maids behind Song Mingli jumped up, and two of them grabbed her, making her unable to move.

"My young lady is the dowager lady of the Marquis's Mansion. Miss Gu, please respect yourself!" Zi Su said with a cold face.

"Okay! Song Mingli, just wait for me." Gu Lingyi gritted her teeth.

Song Mingli glanced at her and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come and kowtow to my eldest sister-in-law and admit your mistakes."

"Oh, you won't cry until you see the coffin!" Gu Lingyi stared at Song Mingli's clothes with red eyes full of jealousy.

Not long after Song Mingli returned to Qichiyuan.

As expected, the servant came to report, "The left lieutenant of the imperial guards has brought people here, saying that they want to ask you for questioning."

Zi Su's expression tightened when she heard this, "They are the people invited by Miss Gu. I'm afraid they will embarrass Miss."

Song Mingli took out the badge that Chu Yanchen had given him last time.

Chu Yanchen said at the time that this waist badge could be used to enter the palace directly and seek an audience with the emperor and empress. She hadn't used it yet, so she didn't know how powerful this waist badge was.

Just try it today.

Song Mingli put on his badge and came to the Gu family's flower hall.

Gu Lingyi was talking to the left lieutenant with a big smile on her face, "Father always mentions you at home, saying that you are young and promising. You are so young, but you are highly valued by the emperor."

"Holding an important position in the Imperial Guard, your future is limitless!"

The left lieutenant had an indifferent expression. Even though Gu Lingyi said a lot of compliments, he just smiled and nodded.

Song Mingli entered the flower hall and asked, "What happened to alarm the Left Colonel of the Imperial Guard?"
