Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

"So, Si'er doesn't understand either. Who did Hu Er offend to end up in such a situation?" Xie Cheng'an still didn't give up and continued to ask.

Gu Qiongsi nodded, and seeing Xie Chengan's expression relax a little, she dared to continue to express her request, "Sanlang, can you let Si'er leave the house? Although the booklet that Wu Yi and the others took out at the poetry meeting seems to have our previous poems, Si'er still feels it is very strange. Let Si'er go out to investigate, okay?"

Xie Cheng'an did not speak immediately, and Gu Qiongsi continued, "If we can find out that the booklet is a forgery, then our stigma will be completely cleared."

"Those poems are really not plagiarized? Were they written by you?" Xie Cheng'an finally asked this question. After being reminded by everyone at the poetry meeting, he later thought it through himself and realized that those poems did not seem to be written by one person.

To put it bluntly, Gu Qiongsi was just a lady in the boudoir. In her more than ten years of life, she had not even left Liuzhou a few times. However, the things she wrote about in her poems were not something a lady could write.

Maybe she really just accidentally got a copy of an almost lost collection of poems, which is why those beautiful verses appeared.

Gu Qiongsi calmed down at this time. After she lowered her head and pondered for a while, she said calmly, "In fact, Si'er concealed it from Sanlang. Those poems were indeed not written by Si'er herself, but they were Si'er's."

Xie Chengan looked at her in confusion, trying to figure out something from her expression, but unfortunately he found nothing, so he could only ask impatiently, "What do you mean by that?"

"Si'er discovered these verses in a dream. After waking up, those verses seemed to be engraved in her mind. She couldn't forget them even if she wanted to," Gu Qiongsi still didn't tell Xie Cheng'an about her soul traveling across time. It would be easier for Xie Cheng'an to accept it if she said it was a dream.

Sure enough, when Xie Cheng'an heard what she said about the dream, he became interested and wanted to ask more questions, but Shuangrui had already brought the doctor over outside the door.

They had just examined Xie Rui in the east wing, so they came here specifically to tell him the diagnosis results.

Xie Cheng'an had no choice but to suppress his interest and go back to ask the doctor what his son's condition was.

The doctor twirled his beard, thought for a moment, and then said,

"This is due to the internal dampness and heat in the young master's body, coupled with the rainy weather outside, the dampness invaded the skin, causing the rash to break out. Judging from the distribution of the red spots on the rash, it can be seen that the heat toxin is quite severe. It is necessary to clear away heat and detoxify, dispel wind and dampness, in order to relieve the symptoms. Mr. Xie, don't worry. I will prescribe a few medicines for the young master to take and the symptoms will be relieved quickly."

After hearing this, Xie Cheng'an finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was nothing else, he quickly thanked the doctor and asked Shuangrui to take the doctor to write a prescription and get the medicine.

After everyone left, Xie Chengan looked at Gu Qiongsi again, "What else did you see in your dream?"

Gu Qiongsi shook her head. "That was three years ago. Now, these are the only verses that Si'er can remember. If they hadn't been written down in advance, they might have become very vague now."

"Fortunately, they did play a big role. Moreover, Si'er can guarantee that these poems have never appeared around us. Just as Wu Yi and the others mentioned, the rules of the prosody of these poems do not conform to the rules you mentioned at all. That's why Si'er dared to take them out for Sanlang to use with confidence."

After hearing this, Xie Cheng'an understood a little. He thought that Gu Qiongsi must have conducted a thorough investigation at the time, but the booklet that Wu Yi took out seemed to have existed for a long time.

So he stopped worrying about it, and his complaints about Gu Qiongsi also decreased a lot. He sighed and said, "What should I do now? Even if I know that the booklet is fake, my reputation has been completely ruined. How can I turn things around in the future?"

Gu Qiongsi saw that Xie Cheng'an had gradually relaxed and sat down on the chair, then he walked behind him, massaged his shoulders, and told him his plan.

"Si'er, try to find a way to bypass Hu Er and contact His Royal Highness Prince An directly. If you can, Si'er will be confident that he can convince His Royal Highness Prince An that those poems were indeed written by you, Sanlang."

Xie Cheng'an turned his head and looked at Gu Qiongsi's calm face. He was more moved in his heart, but he had to admit that this woman's thoughts were indeed not like those of an ordinary girl. She really dared to think.

"I am now notorious. How can you get His Royal Highness Prince An to see you?" Xie Cheng'an reached out and grabbed Gu Qiongsi's hands on his shoulders, and became a little agitated.

"Of course it's about Hu Er. Hu Er is in trouble now. Si'er thinks that His Royal Highness Prince An should be very uneasy, after all, Hu Er knows too much."

After hearing what Gu Qiongsi said, Xie Chengan stood up from his chair and hugged Gu Qiongsi into his arms. "Si'er, I misunderstood you. Sanlang apologizes to you here."

Gu Qiongsi, Si'er, is indeed still the Si'er who is wholeheartedly caring about me. Even though I am in this situation now, she is still helping me with my plans.

Gu Qiongsi also gained Xie Cheng'an's trust once again with his eloquence.

"Si'er, I will never doubt you again, you must believe me." Xie Cheng'an wanted to swear.

Gu Qiongsi was held tightly in Xie Cheng'an's arms. Listening to Xie Cheng'an expressing his loyalty to her, she nodded gently, but the tenderness in her eyes was no longer the same as before when she looked at Xie Cheng'an.

During the two days when Xie Cheng'an had confined her to Acacia Courtyard, she had understood a lot of things. In this male-dominated world, it was too difficult for a woman to rely on herself. And Xie Cheng'an was not as devoted to her as she had thought before. He could confine her today because of a booklet, but he would turn against her in the future because of something else.

It seems that I still need to make more plans.

"Sanlang, how much silver do you have now? If Si'er goes out to make this happen, she will definitely need money." When Gu Qiongsi was almost unable to breathe due to being hugged by the other party, she finally broke free from Xie Cheng'an's arms and asked hesitantly.

"This..." Xie Cheng'an suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Didn't I give you all the money I borrowed last time? Isn't it enough?"

The money had been used up long ago. The last time I found that fake "famous doctor" for Gu Xunwei, I used my own money to find her.
