It turns out that in his previous life, Ye Tinghua relied on Lin Qingye to maneuver and plan for him step by step, and that was how he climbed to the position of crown prince.

It turned out that Lin Qingye's life in the previous life was so miserable. He thought that Lin Qingye would be happy to marry Ye Tinghua, but he didn't expect it to be so miserable.

In his previous life, Ye Tingxuan died of depression after learning that Lin Qingye had passed away due to illness. In his previous life, Ye Tingxuan also passed away with regrets.

At this moment, Ye Tingxuan looked at Lin Qingye who had already passed out, smiled gently, reached out and carried her to the bed, gently took off her shoes and socks, carefully covered her with a quilt, and quietly kissed her on the forehead.

Looking at Lin Qingye who was sleeping soundly at this moment, Ye Tingxuan's heart seemed to be filled with ripples. Perhaps it was God's mercy that allowed them to start over again in this life.

At this moment, the call of a lark was suddenly heard outside the window. Ye Tingxuan immediately stood up and walked to the window. A low male voice was heard outside the window.

"Master, I have found out that Shen did have a brief affair with the Duke of Zhenguo before she got married. Because the old Duke of Zhenguo and his wife disliked it, the two had to separate. After the Duke of Zhenguo got married, Shen married into the Marquis of Pingnan's mansion."

After hearing this, Ye Tingxuan nodded and then asked in a low voice.

"Does the current wife of the Duke of Zhenguo know about this?"

The deep male voice outside the window answered after hearing this.

"The news has already spread in the Zhenguogong Mansion. I believe the Zhenguogong's wife should know it by the time she wakes up."

Ye Tingxuan closed his eyes, nodded slightly, and then continued speaking.

"There is one more thing you need to investigate."

The figure outside the window nodded slightly and spoke respectfully.

"I have completed my investigation. It turns out that the emperor has always had a woman in his heart. That woman is no one else but Miss Lin's grandmother, Gulan. Miss Lin looks 80% like her grandmother."

After listening to this, Ye Tingxuan suddenly understood, and everything seemed to be explained clearly.

Ye Tingxuan waved his hand immediately, and the figure outside the window disappeared immediately.

Ye Tingxuan walked gently to Lin Qingye's bed, looked at Lin Qingye who was sleeping soundly on the bed, smiled and pulled the corner of the quilt for her, then got up and left.

When Lin Qing woke up from her hangover in a daze, she felt her head swollen. She reached out and rubbed her forehead. Cui Xi then walked in from outside with a cup of ginseng tea in her hand.

"Miss, you are finally awake. Have a cup of ginseng tea to wake up."

Lin Qing also took the ginseng tea handed to him by Cui Xi and drank it all. Then he was about to lie down and continue sleeping when he saw Cui Xi say.

"Miss, you are still sleeping, and the mansion is in chaos."

Lin Qingye frowned slightly and asked in a hoarse voice.

"I've only slept for a few hours, what could have happened?"

Cui Xi said excitedly.

"Miss, early this morning, the gate of our mansion was surrounded by a group of debt collectors! It turned out that this concubine Liu owed a large sum of money to an underground money house, and it was all usurious. The debt collectors came to the gate of the mansion to throw feces.

Our old lady is so angry that her nose is crooked. The master took Nan Xiaoniang out early in the morning. Now they are running around in a panic. Madam said she wanted to sell Concubine Liu out. Concubine Liu's family members have come and are making a fuss outside. "

After hearing this, Lin Qing became even more confused. Logically speaking, with such a big commotion outside, she shouldn't be so idle here. Shouldn't they have come to her yard long ago to ask for money?

Cui Xi on the side seemed to see through Lin Qingye's thoughts. She rubbed the handkerchief in her hand and prepared to wipe Lin Qingye's face while answering with a smile.

"Early this morning, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince sent over a dozen maids, saying they were sent to serve the young lady. In fact, they were all very skilled. All the people sent by the old lady and the lady were beaten back by them.

The Sixth Prince sent someone to tell her that Miss should take a good rest and that he would bring some pork elbows from Zuixianlou to see her later."

Speaking of the braised pork elbow from Zuixianlou, Cui Xi couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and handed the handkerchief she had just rolled to Lin Qingye with an expectant look on her face.

After hearing this, Lin Qing also smiled and took the handkerchief handed to him by Cui Xi, gently wiped his face, and then asked as if he remembered something.

"Is Lin Qingyao at home now?"

Cui Xi shook her head, took the handkerchief, rubbed it neatly, placed it neatly on the edge of the basin, and then answered.

"No, I heard that the eldest lady left the house early in the morning and has not returned yet. I heard from her maid that she went to Lingshan Temple to burn incense."

Lin Qingye and Cui Xi were chatting in the room when they heard a burst of crying and shouting at the gate of the courtyard, but the crying and shouting soon disappeared in an instant.

Lin Qing simply stood up and stretched, then with Cui Xi's help, he dressed simply and neatly, and then walked towards the courtyard gate with Cui Xi.

"Xi'er, we are free here, let's go and take a look together."

Lin Qingye had just stepped out of the courtyard when he happened to see a maid with a sharp eyes picking up Aunt Liu with one hand and preparing to throw her out. Shen, who was standing by, was obviously frightened by this scene. After all, she had been locked up by Lin Qingye before, and had experienced the power of the maids around Lin Qingye.

Because Shen was standing aside at a loss at the moment, Lin Qingye happened to come out with Cui Xi at this moment. Shen noticed it immediately, and hurriedly stepped forward to Lin Qingye, and spoke to him in a friendly manner, which was different from her usual style.

"Oh! The second girl is up. Hurry up and ask the maids in your courtyard to let Madam Liu go. We are all family. Why do we have to do this?"

Lin Qing also became interested at this moment. She looked up at the maid who was carrying Aunt Liu. The maid immediately understood what she meant and threw Aunt Liu to the ground. Aunt Liu fell heavily to the ground, shouting.

"Lin Qingye! You will not live a good life! You are just a concubine's daughter, how dare you manage the household expenses! How dare you take over the shop under my name! How dare you reduce my monthly salary! It's all your fault! You made me desperate! It's you who forced me to borrow high-interest loans! It's you who brought shame to our mansion! It's you who let these people come to our door! It's you! It's all your fault!"

After hearing this, Shen, who was standing by, seemed to be very pleased with what Aunt Liu said. She took out a handkerchief from her bosom and shook it, then stood in the middle and acted like a good person.

"Oh! Yes! Second girl, what Aunt Liu said makes sense. It's not that I don't agree with you being the housekeeper, but after all, you are just an unmarried girl. It's inevitable that it will be a bit difficult for a little girl like you to manage such a huge Pingnan Marquis Mansion.

Look, isn't there something wrong now? You got up late and didn't see how vicious the debt collectors were. They scared the old lady! I say you should quickly take out the money and settle the debt for Aunt Liu! Otherwise, when the matter gets worse, people outside will talk about our mansion!"
