Twenty-eight years.
The Second Young Master of the Ruan Kingdom and the Qu Family's Second Miss were getting married. The two families were on par with each other, with ten miles of red makeup on their faces.
Qu Qingge Wangfu, the eldest son of the original Ruan Duke's family, Ruan Xiuyuan had been severely injured in an expedition to the Southern Wilderness, causing him to be unable to produce a child. At the same time, the Ruan Duke was suddenly ambushed and died, leaving behind the last words, giving the position of the Prince Fu to the successor, Second Young Master Ruan Xiushu, to inherit.
"Elder sister, is this for real?" Qu Qingyu looked around, and then covered her mouth in shock, a look that Qu Qingge did not understand appearing in her eyes.
"I... I don't know, I was listening to me. Grandfather said so in the study. " Qu Qingge frowned, her hands covering her stomach.
Originally, she did not know anything, but after returning to the Duke Yu's Mansion and hearing of this matter, she hoped more than anyone else that it was not true.
She couldn't believe that her beloved husband was such a vile person. To wipe out her father and brothers, how could they talk about ethics?
Second sister, don't be afraid, you are currently in Wife of the Crown, you two are husband and wife, both of you are prosperous, and both of you have suffered a great loss, you have to help brother-in-law!
Qu Qingge could not understand, her eyes wandered around, seeing Ruan Xiushu who suddenly appeared, she remembered that no one told him that she was in the backyard.
When Ruan Xiushu saw Qu Qingge standing there, he was shocked. secretly looked at him and reminded him: "Big sister, brother-in-law is here to bring you back to your room!"
Ruan Xiushu immediately raised his smile and coaxed Qu Qingge gently, but when his back faced her, he secretly touched his sister-in-law's twin peaks, causing a bewitching smile to appear on Qu Qingyu's face.
Qu Qingge was only able to enjoy Ruan Xiushu's gentle words and was carried back to his room.
The next day, Ruan Xiushu suggested to accompany her back to the Duke Yu's Mansion to see her grandfather. He said that he had something that he wanted to ask of her.
With Ruan Xiushu's gentle coaxing, Qu Qingge immediately dismissed her doubts. She thought that it would be good if he went to the Duke Yu's Mansion and asked about this matter in person. Everyone was peaceful, yet didn't notice the trace of gloominess that flashed in Ruan Xiushu's eyes.
Never would they have thought that after the husband and wife pair returned from Duke Yu's Mansion, the Duke Yu's Mansion would be raided by the Embroidered Uniform Guard sent by the Emperor.
"No, no, my grandfather would not do that!" Who didn't know of the Duke Yu's Mansion's family that was filled with loyalty and devotion to the Emperor? How could they rebel?
"The dragon robe was indeed found from the Duke Yu's Mansion!" Ruan Xiushu didn't have any emotional statements, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
"No, I don't believe it, I don't believe it!" Qu Qingge wantonly cried out and threw himself onto the ground. The loyal plate on the door was still hung high up, shining with a dazzling golden light.
"Not only did the Emperor find the Dragon Robe in the Duke Yu's Mansion, he also found their private business dealings with each other. He found out that the Residence of the Duke of Guo had several businesses that were as rich as countries, and needed a special seal that was unique to the residence of the Duke of Guo to be summoned. I wonder where that seal is hidden, if it can be found, there might be some leeway."
"Really, if I can find that one, I can... You can spare them? That, that... I... I can find it! " Qu Qingge raised her head, her clean face covered like a cat.
Ruan Xiushu looked at her with disgust, and coaxed her patiently.
"Of course, if you really can find one, I'll definitely plead for them!" Hearing this, Qu Qingge staggered back to his home.
She knew that it was a jade seal with orchids engraved on it. Her grandfather had once hinted to her that if she could save their family, she would definitely take it out. After her mother's death, her grandfather's family was her most important family member.
When she returned with the jade seal, Ruan Xiushu's eyes were filled with greed. He extended his hand out to grab it, but Qu Qingge dodged it.
"I want to hold it and personally hand it to the Emperor. I personally heard him say that he would let go of the people from the Duke Yu's Mansion."
"That's impossible..." Ruan Xiushu rejected it flatly. The emperor did not know about the seal, it was just that Qu Qingyu had overheard it and conspired with him to take it for herself.
Qu Qingge, who had always been weak and kind, was extremely determined this time.
Ruan Xiushu was unable to get a hold of it, he grinded his teeth hard, making a "ge ge" sound. However, the jade seal was easy to break, as he was afraid of accidentally breaking it when he tried to snatch it, it was dragged down.
Something big was about to happen...
