After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

“Cousin, you have to believe me, I don’t know anyone in Kyoto!” Su Yi noticed that Gu Qingshan looked strange, so she quickly said pitifully.

Gu Qingshan hummed, "Maybe he wants to extort some money... I hope he's alright."

"It's getting late, let's all go to bed early."

Gu Qingshan stood up, seemingly unwilling to talk more with Su Yi. He held Gu Huai’s hand and left Chongming Hall.

Su Yi felt uneasy. She felt that...her cousin's attitude towards her was different from before.

If it were in the past, he would have spoken softly and gently to comfort her, and would never have been so cold.

Song Mingli returned to Qichiyuan and quickly comforted Jingyou, then told him to take a shower and go to bed.

She didn’t know that Prince Jing came to the Marquis’ Mansion and mocked Gu Qingshan… Was there something about Big Brother involved in this?

If it weren't for my eldest brother asking Prince Jing to take action, Prince Jing's appearance would have been too coincidental.

The so-called brothers and sisters are connected by heart, probably, Song Mingli just wanted to go back to the Song family to ask his eldest brother.

The letter from my eldest brother was delivered quietly.

Song Mingli read what his elder brother said in the letter and found it even more mysterious.

Su Yi was really kidnapped by Tian Yong and some thugs.

The eldest brother's people had no intention of interfering in other people's business.

But Su Yi kept saying that she was the wife of the Prince of Changning.

When Song Yanzhou heard this... This was ruining his sister's reputation! If Su Yi was rescued, Song Mingli's reputation would be ruined.

So, he gave an order to his men: kill the hostages for the kidnappers.

Su Yi died, the kidnapped woman died, but Song Mingli was still alive.

The rumor that the "Crown Prince's Wife" was kidnapped was self-defeating.

Unexpectedly, just as his men were about to take action, they encountered "Prince Jing returning to Beijing to recuperate". Prince Jing's men thought they were assassins and chased them to the ruined temple.

It just happened to be a kidnapping incident.

Song Yanzhou explained the matter to Prince Jing, who took the initiative to take charge of the matter and asked him to take his men and retreat first.

Song Yanzhou said in the letter that he only found out later that Prince Jing had actually gone to the Marquis of Changning's Mansion in person.

Song Mingli dealt with his elder brother's letter.

She watched the flames leap and engulf the letter, and couldn't help but think... If Prince Jing hadn't seen it, Su Yi might have died by now.

But letting her die like this, wouldn't that be too easy for her?

Su Yi should thank Prince Jing for saving her life.

Song Mingli smiled. She was also grateful to Prince Jing for saving her enemy's life!

……

The news that Prince Jing returned to the capital and visited the Marquis of Changning's residence somehow spread in Kyoto.

Gu Qingshan’s friend heard about this and immediately came to visit the Changning Marquis’ Mansion.

"Last time you asked me to find out for you whether there were any vacancies in the Jinwu Guard. I found out about your plan to fill a vacancy in the Jinwu Guard!" said the friend enthusiastically.

Last time at the dinner table, Gu Qingshan was bullied by the young master of the Cui family, and his friends all avoided him.

Not to mention that the things I asked them to find out have no results, it’s even difficult to see them!

Now that his friend had come to him personally and offered to fill the vacancy, Gu Qingshan was excited.

“Thank you very much!” Gu Qingshan asked enthusiastically, “Are there any vacancies? How much money do you need?”

"Well, you've already boarded Prince Jing's boat, why are you still talking about money?" The friend laughed, "Even if there's no vacancy, we'll have to make room for you!"

Gu Qingshan’s breath hitched… Prince Jing! Prince Jing again!

He doesn't want to get involved with Prince Jing at all!

Although he thought so in his heart, he kept a smile on his face, "Well, I can't say that... I still have to wait for a vacancy."

"Yes! There are exactly two vacancies, you can fill them." The friend patted his shoulder and said, "When did you make friends with His Royal Highness Prince Jing? How is your relationship? Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had such a relationship?

"If I had known that you had this connection, the matter of the Jinwu Guards would have been completed long ago! Why would it have been delayed until now?"

Gu Qingshan’s face twitched, and he felt depressed.

The friend laughed and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I've told my dad..."

Gu Qingshan felt excited, and his anticipation for the vacancy in the Jinwu Guard finally suppressed the sour and bitter feeling in his heart.

Before the friend could finish his words, his servant suddenly came and waved at him anxiously at the door.

"Wait a minute! Those are the people around my father." The friend went out.

The servant in the house was whispering something in his ear, but no one knew what he was saying.

His face changed drastically, he turned to Gu Qingshan and said, "Something happened at home, I have to leave first!"

He didn't even come into the house and just ran away.

“Hey…I haven’t finished talking about the Jinwu Guards yet!” Gu Qingshan chased after him anxiously.

His friend, however, had a sullen face and walked quickly, as if he was afraid that if he walked too slowly, he would be contaminated by some bad luck from the Gu family.

Gu Qingshan frowned, having a bad feeling.

He quickly called a servant and told him, "Go, go and see the guest off!"

The servant walked quickly and hurriedly followed behind.

Gu Qingshan was pacing outside the reception room, waiting anxiously.

After waiting for a while, he saw the servant he sent out coming back with a sad face.

“What did you say?” Gu Qingshan asked hurriedly.

"Young Master, what kind of friend is that? He started scolding as soon as he got on the carriage! His words were so rude!" the servant muttered with an unpleasant expression.

Gu Qingshan became even more anxious, "What did you say? Tell me now!"

The servant looked at him, lowered his head quickly, and whispered, "They said...the Gu family is finished, that you are outrageous, that Prince Jing couldn't stand it anymore, so he cared about such petty thieves...and also said that your cousin lives in your house, it's really..."

The servant took a deep breath, closed his mouth, and didn't want to say another word.

Gu Qingshan's face turned pale.

He took two steps back and fell into a chair. "It's over... The vacancy for the Jinwu Guard is gone again."

The servant shook his head and sighed.

“How did he know?” Gu Qingshan scratched his head and asked, “At first he was very polite and enthusiastic towards me! How did he know?”

The servant said quickly, "Oh, this little guy found out! His servant said that his master sent people to the Jingzhao government office to inquire, and those thieves were sent to Jingzhao by Prince Jing.

"Before the torture instruments were put on, those people confessed everything. They said they knew that the woman was not the young lady of the Marquis's mansion.

"But the woman insisted that she was the real one and even gave a token to prove that she was the real one! So the thieves just went along with her and made the best of it."

Gu Qingshan's face turned pale and he almost couldn't catch his breath.

Su Yi hurt him!

If Su Yi hadn't interfered here, perhaps he would have been able to fill the vacancy in Jingzhao Prefecture!

But if he were asked to hate Su Yi as much as he hated Song Mingli... he immediately remembered how gentle and considerate Su Yi was to him on a daily basis, and also remembered how Su Yi was in excruciating pain in the house when she gave birth to her two children.

Gu Qingshan closed his eyes... After all, she was the mother of his two children.

For the sake of the two children, he couldn't hate her.

She is just a weak woman, what does she know?

Although it ruined his business, Su Yi didn't do it on purpose...
