Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband

Before he could finish his words, Zheng Fengyun had rushed over, hugged Gu Qinlan's thighs, looked up and asked innocently:

"What is the wetness that mother is talking about? Where is the wetness?"

Seeing this, Zheng Huiyi pursed her lips, looked at Gu Qinlan with a pitiful look in her eyes.

In the moment when Gu Qinlan was stunned, I swiftly hugged her other leg and made a naughty face to Zheng Fengyun, feeling very proud.

Zheng Fenghui glanced at the siblings and sneered contemptuously. Then he held a dark black cloak in his hands and handed it to Gu Qinlan. At the same time, he sternly rebuked Zheng Huiyi and Zheng Fengyun:

"Stop disturbing my mother."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Fenghui immediately turned his attention to Gu Qinlan, his tone full of concern:

"Mother, put on your cloak quickly and be careful not to catch a cold. I will ask the servants to prepare hot water. Mother, please change your wet clothes as soon as possible."

Gu Qinlan was still a little dazed. At this time, Wocan had already taken the cloak from Zheng Fenghui's hand and gently put it on her shoulders.

Looking at the worried faces of these children who were still waiting for his return in front of the mansion, Gu Qinlan's cold body and heart were gradually surrounded by warmth.

After all, there is a light in this world that is waiting for her...

Thinking of this, Gu Qinlan's eyes welled up with tears, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Feng Hui, thank you."

When Zheng Huiyi and Zheng Fengyun heard this, they immediately cast angry looks at Zheng Fenghui and cursed in their hearts, thinking that their eldest brother was indeed a deep-minded person, using his father's cloak to show his filial piety!

Zheng Dinglian's eyes fell softly on the wet Gu Qinlan. Even with the cloak on, she looked extremely fragile, as if a gust of wind could blow her away. Her red eyes were obviously traces of crying.

Although Zheng Dinglian didn't know why Gu Qinlan was crying, his heart tightened and he asked gently:

"Are you OK?"

Gu Qinlan looked up at Zheng Dinglian and forced a smile: "It's okay, you..."

"Feng Hui and the others are worried about you since you haven't come back yet. Now that you're back, go wash up and rest."

"Ok."

Gu Qinlan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Zheng Dinglian did not continue to ask questions, which made her feel relieved. She did not plan to tell anyone about her mother's affairs.

Seeing Gu Qinlan like this, the three children stopped acting naughty and immediately surrounded her and returned to the mansion.

Zheng Dinglian looked at the backs of Gu Qinlan and the children, pursed his lips slightly, turned around and asked Lou Wei:

"Where did the princess go?"

Lou Wei did not dare to hide anything and immediately informed Zheng Dinglian of the news sent back by the secret guard:

"The secret guards reported that the eye bags around the princess were extremely alert, and they did not dare to get too close. They only knew that the princess went to the Gu family's ancestral tomb and took a remote path."

After hearing this, Zheng Dinglian's eyes flashed with sharpness. Gu family's ancestral tomb?

Gu Qinyao had just visited in the morning, and Gu Qinlan immediately went to the Gu family’s ancestral tomb. Why?

Perhaps Gu Qinyao revealed some information to Gu Qinlan, which led Gu Qinlan to go to the ancestral tomb late at night and not even choose to walk on the main road. Is she avoiding someone?

Lou Wei noticed that Zheng Dinglian looked serious. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Master, there is one more thing I just learned..."

"Oh?"

"The second branch of the Gu family seems to be planning to marry the illegitimate third daughter to the brother of the second branch Gao's family... Therefore, the third daughter may have come to ask the princess for help today."

After hearing this, Zheng Dinglian frowned and snorted coldly:

"The Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion is really a place where filth and dirt are hidden."

It is amazing that such a filthy place could produce someone like Gu Qinlan who is untainted by the mud.

Zheng Dinglian pondered for a moment and ordered Lou Wei:

"Find Gu Qinyao and ask her to tell the princess everything she told her today..."

At this point, Zheng Dinglian's words suddenly stopped, and with a helpless sigh, his voice was filled with solemnity:

"Forget it...let's just leave it at that."

His reaction was unexpected, but in an instant, Gu Qinlan's personality traits flashed clearly through Zheng Dinglian's mind.

She looks gentle and weak, but she is extremely tough and determined.

Especially when she chooses to remain silent, any attempt to pry into her affairs may trigger her disgust.

Although Zheng Dinglian was eager to provide assistance, he did not want to anger Gu Qinlan.

After pondering for a moment, he tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the wheelchair, as if he was repeatedly deducing a certain possibility in his mind.

The reason why Gu Qinlan visited the family cemetery late at night must be related to her mother.

And the obvious signs of her crying further suggested that the information revealed by Gu Qinyao was closely related to the past of Gu Qinlan's mother.

So, what exactly happened that could make such a strong person like Gu Qinlan feel so sad?

Unless... there is a dark secret behind her mother's death?

Everything seemed to have a reasonable explanation.

Gu Qinyao obviously knew this secret, so she used it to make a deal.

In order to verify the truth, Gu Qinlan went to the ancestral tomb in person...

Her tears proved that what Gu Qinyao said was true!

In this case, Gu Qinlan will definitely look for evidence next.

Thinking of this, Zheng Dinglian's eyes flashed with determination, and then he ordered his servants:

"Investigate the doctor who treated the princess' mother, and pay special attention to Yao."

Although Lou Wei was confused about the reason behind the order, he did not hesitate and immediately accepted the order. Just as he was about to leave, Zheng Dinglian stopped him again:

"Remember, if you encounter the princess's people, you must act covertly and reveal the evidence to the princess subtly."

Lou Wei looked up at Zheng Dinglian, raised his eyebrows, and responded obediently:

"As ordered!"

On the second day, Gu Qinlan unfortunately caught a cold. Her body could not bear the strain and she fell ill in bed.

When she woke up, she felt a splitting headache and rubbed her temples hard.

When I opened my eyes, I saw four little heads gathered beside the bed.

The three children and Dou Qianqian looked at her with concern, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her wake up.

"Mom, are you feeling better now?"

"Mom, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere else?"

"Mom, would you like to drink some hot porridge first?"

"Auntie Lan, can I take your pulse again?"

Gu Qinlan looked at the concerned expressions of the children, feeling both moved and a little amused, and slowly sat up.

Zheng Fenghui acted quickly and stuffed a pillow behind Gu Qinlan's back when she stood up so that she could lean on it more comfortably.

Gu Qinlan patted Zheng Fenghui's head gratefully and thanked him softly.

A shy blush passed across Zheng Fenghui's handsome face. He nodded, still maintaining his seriousness.

Gu Qinlan smiled at this: "I'm fine. Did Duoduo want to check my pulse just now? Have you learned how to check a pulse?"

Duoduo scratched his head a little embarrassedly and replied:

"Auntie Lan, have you forgotten? Last time, you asked us to recite the soup recipe song. After I finished reciting it, I became interested in medicine, so I found some medical books to study."
