Perhaps when Gu Qinlian learned the good news, her heart would instantly explode into irreparable pieces.

Gu Qinlan smiled slyly and instructed Fu Yu, "Go and deliver this news to Gu Qinlian in its entirety."

She couldn't wait to witness whether Gu Qinlian's determination would remain unwavering after she learned what kind of person she was about to marry.

Fu Yu was so excited that she almost jumped into the clouds and left in a hurry.

Gu Qinlan looked at her cheerful back, and a smile rippled in the corners of her eyes.

Fu Yu acted quickly, and when night fell, Gu Qinlian learned the shocking news.

At that moment, Gu Qinlian was extremely angry. She smashed the objects in the room to pieces and even hit the maid beside her.

Song rushed over when she heard the noise, only to see Gu Qinlian throwing herself into her arms with tears streaming down her face, telling her everything that was in her heart.

"What? Ji Yinli's personal maid is pregnant, and the Ji family is holding a celebration banquet for her?!"

Song was so angry that her eyes went dark. "This Ji family! They are going too far! Qin Lian, listen to your mother and cancel this marriage. We must not get involved in this kind of marriage!"

However, Gu Qinlian jumped up like a spring: "Cancel the engagement? No, I will never agree to it!"

Mrs. Song was stunned by her daughter's reaction: "Qin Lian, have you been possessed by a demon? First, the Ji family treated you badly with the betrothal gifts, and now there is such a scandal. This is to bring shame to our Gu family!"

If this marriage goes ahead, their Gu family will become a laughing stock!

Even if Song doted on her daughter, she could not compromise on this matter. Besides, a family that was about to get married actually did such a thing. Would her daughter really be treated well after marrying?

Under the dual pressure of emotion and reason, Song could not accept it.

But Gu Qinlian seemed to not understand her mother's painstaking efforts at all. "Mom, you don't know at all that Yinli will become a great man in the future! In three years, just three years, he will definitely pass the imperial examination and will be personally selected by the emperor as the third place winner. Believe me!"

Song was so shocked that she almost blurted out: "Are you crazy? Who can predict the future? Even if it is three days later, who can say for sure? Qin Lian, have you been bewitched by Ji Yinli? Otherwise, how could you say such a ridiculous thing?"

She might be able to believe that Ji Yinli could pass the imperial examination, but she didn't even believe that he could be personally selected by the emperor as the third place, let alone other people in the world.

Gu Qinlian was very firm: "Mom, what I said is true. Yinli will definitely become the third place in the imperial examination."

Song's headache almost exploded: "Okay, stop talking nonsense! This marriage can't go on no matter what, otherwise our Gu family will not be able to raise our heads. Don't go out during this period of time, stay at home, and I will let your father handle the cancellation of the marriage."

After saying that, Song turned around and was about to leave.

Gu Qinlian was extremely anxious. How could she bear to see the marriage she had worked so hard for go to waste?

She grabbed Song and dragged her into the inner room.

Song was panicked: "My baby, what are you doing? Let me go!"

Gu Qinlian pulled her into the inner room, drove out all the maids, and ordered them to close the door tightly.

"Mother, don't you want to know why I am so sure that Ji Yinli will pass the imperial examination? Because I was reborn."

Song stared at her daughter blankly for a moment, then reached out and touched her forehead: "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?"

Gu Qinlian held her mother's hand tightly, her eyes firmly lowered, her tone sincere and serious: "Mother, every word I said is true, I have indeed returned to the human world. In the previous life, I was married to Gu Qinlan, she followed Ji Yinli into the bridal sedan, and later Ji Yinli won the third place in the imperial examination, and she was promoted to the wife of the third place. As time passed, ten years later, Ji Yinli became a third-rank official, and Gu Qinlan was also named a third-rank imperial wife accordingly."

Song stood there in a daze like a clay sculpture or a wooden sculpture. She could hardly accept what she heard, but the undisguised resentment in Gu Qinlian's eyes made her believe that her daughter's words were true. After all, she knew her daughter's temperament very well.

"Then, why are you so eager to marry Ji Yinli, and even go so far as to pin the marriage of Prince Duan's Mansion on Gu Qinlan? What is your purpose?"

Gu Qinlian raised a sneer at the corner of her lips and nodded: "Yes, not only that, I also specially selected the auspicious day when I got married in my previous life, and let Gu Qinlan marry into Prince Duan's Mansion on that day. In this way, she will be like me in my previous life, staying in the boudoir and enduring loneliness for more than ten years."

Song was completely convinced at this moment.

Because Gu Qinlan's wedding date was set at the insistence of Gu Qinlian.

At that time, she was confused as to why her daughter interfered in her sister's marriage. Now, thinking about it, it turned out that her daughter had already known that Zheng Dinglian would receive an imperial edict to go to war immediately on that day!

If you haven't actually experienced it once, how can you know it in such detail?

The daughter in front of me actually came back to life.

Song suddenly felt a little scared, her legs went weak, and she almost fell to the ground. Gu Qinlian quickly supported her, "Mother, don't be afraid. Although I have experienced two lives, I am still your daughter, not some evil demon."

She put her mother's hand on her cheek, letting her mother feel the warmth of her body temperature.

It took Song a long time to calm down, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Qin Lian, are you really reborn? What was your life like in your previous life? Why were you able to return to the human world?"

When Gu Qinlian mentioned her previous life, her eyes turned red. She hugged Song tightly and cried, "Mother, no one knows the pain in my daughter's heart."

She described her past life in detail, with every word full of blood and tears. In her narration, she became a victim of abuse in Prince Duan's mansion and was eventually abandoned by Zheng Dinglian. Because of Gu Qinlan's obstruction, she could only become a concubine who could not see the light of day, and even her own son had to call Gu Qinlan mother. In the end, she was killed by the jealous Gu Qinlan.

Song herself had bad behavior, but because she favored her daughter, she felt pity for her. She hugged Gu Qinlian and burst into tears: "My poor child, your life is too hard."

Gu Qinlian burst into tears and choked up, "Mother, I must live a glorious life in this life. I will trample Gu Qinlan under my feet and make sure she will never be able to stand up again!"

Song nodded firmly: "Okay, mother will do whatever you say. But the Ji family..."

She still felt that the constant strife in the Ji family was worrying.

Gu Qinlian held her mother's hand tightly and comforted her softly, "Mother, she is just a concubine who was promoted from a maid. It is easy to punish her. Ji Yinli will surely be a marquis and a prime minister in the future. What does this little setback matter? Besides, the Ji family is now asking our Gu family for something. If we ask them to get rid of that bitch, how can they not obey us?"

Song thought for a moment and felt that what her daughter said was absolutely right.
