Chapter 337 The Loyal Servant Requested Qin Wanru to Return to Mansion

Of course, the one who brought Qu Le’s father to the capital city was not her subordinate but Chu Liuchen’s!

“Tell me what happened before!” Qin Wanru meditated for a long time and then began to speak.

“Miss, when Infanta married to our Mansion, Old Madam did not like her. Old Madam liked the cousin Miss, who had been brought to Duke Xing’s Mansion from childhood and she was a niece in Old Madam’s parents’ home. She had been prepared to marry Childe at a little age, but Childe did not like the cousin Miss. However, he liked Infanta Qinghua after meeting her. Knowing that Old Madam would hinder this, he specifically begged the Emperor to decree their marriage!”

“Later on, the cousin Miss married Second Young Master. Infanta Qinghua was a gentle person. Even though she was an Infanta, she still behaved as a daughter-in-law of Duke Xing’s Mansion. However, Old Madam always created difficulties for Infanta Qinghua, and deliberately punished Infanta Qinghua to kneel down. Thus, this was how Infanta and Childe lost their first child… ”

Qu Le’s father told all the details of the matter at that time.

That was the part that Madam Dowager did not know.

The first child of Infanta Qinghua and former Heir of Duke Xing had died under the difficulties created by Old Madam. After that, Old Madam had said some false words. She had said that she had not known either and criticized Infanta for being unfilial, because Infanta had already known her pregnancy but not said, which had deliberately trapped her in unkindness.

Being furious, Heir of Duke Xing had been about to take Infanta Qinghua to leave after arguing with Old Madam. He had said that he would stay away from Old Madam and become a general on the border. At that time, the old Duke Xing had not allowed him to leave, thus they also had had a controversy. The old Duke Xing had angrily thrown former Heir of Duke Xing out of the mansion, and said that Heir of Duke Xing would not be allowed to tell his identity in front of others.

Originally Heir of Duke Xing would have been thought to surrender and return to the mansion again. It had been unexpected that Heir of Duke Xing had had a fiery disposition. He had taken Infanta Qinghua directly to the border without saying goodbye, and only left a letter saying that he would go to the border and hide his name to join the army. He could also gain his honor and protect his wife without relying on Duke Xing’s Mansion.

Heir of Duke Xing had left too abruptly. When the old Duke Xing and Rui’an Great Elder Princess had realized, Heir of Duke Xing and Infanta Qinghua had already disappeared without a trace. Afterwards, no matter how the two mansions had found them, the two people could not have been found. However, these two mansions had not given up, and they had still sent many people to the border, trying to find Heir of Duke Xing and Infanta Qinghua.

After a few years, those who had been sent to find had already returned, but their whereabouts had still been unknown.

At this time, the rebellion had broken out. The border had been in an emergency and many cities had been invaded, which had made people in capital city panic. At this time, a letter from Infanta Qinghua had been received at Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ Mansion, saying that Heir of Duke Xing and Infanta Qinghua had already had a daughter, and now she had been pregnant again. During the wartime, it had been unsafe for Infanta Qinghua to stay on the border, thus Childe had wanted her to return to the capital city first, and let people from Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ Mansion pick her up.

Upon receiving this news, Rui’an Great Elder Princess had cried with joy. Although she had not been willing to notice Duke Xing’s Mansion, seeing that Duke Xing’s Mansion had never forgotten to find them, she had also revealed the information to Duke Xing’s Mansion.

The two mansions had sent people together to pick up Infanta Qinghua. Among the people sent by Duke Xing’s Mansion at the time had been Qu Le’s father. Before he would leave the capital city, the old Duke Xing had specially asked him to come over and warned repeatedly that after finding Childe, he would protect Childe by his side and let Infanta Qinghua return to the capital city first, since others from Rui’an Great Elder Princess’ Mansion and Duke Xing’s Mansion would protect her.

But this group of people had only ended in finding Infanta Qinghua. At that time, Infanta Qinghua had hidden behind a small rotten Buddha statue. Several servant girls around her had all been killed by disordered army. Only she had sat behind the Buddha statue in bloody clothes. She had become demented and not answered to others. She had only murmured Childe’s name and another two vague characters.

Everyone had looked around to find Childe but failed. Seeing that Infanta Qinghua had not been in a good condition, most people had escorted her to returned to the capital city. Only Qu Le’s father and several people had stayed to keep finding Childe, as well as the elder daughter of Infanta Qinghua and Childe.

But afterwards they had been nowhere to find and people who had been sent out had returned to the capital city one after another. Only Qu Le’s father had not given up, and continued finding, which had taken him so many years.

The old Duke Xing had been dead, and the new Duke Xing was the Second Young Master in the mansion.

Now seeing Qin Wanru, how could Qu Le’s father not become excited? The belief that he had supported him for so many years was to find the daughter of Childe and Infanta.

“Miss, you, you are Miss of our Duke Xing’s Mansion. You are the most honorable Miss in Duke Xing’s Mansion!” Even a man could not help but tear. Thinking that his long-term wish finally realized, Qu Le’s father couldn’t hold back his tears. He walked to the door, and knelt down towards the west.

With his head down, he murmured in his mouth and piously consoled his master!

Qin Wanru bit her lips and clenched her hands tightly, with an endless cruelty hidden in her eyes!

“In my last life, I did not finally offer any incense to my natural parents. I am afraid that Qin Yuru had shown her filial piety for many times in front of my parents’ memorial tablets,” thought Qin Wanru.

If her parents had known it, they would definitely have also felt sad to see her being pushed into death step by step.

Madam Di, Qin Yuru, Madam of Duke Xing, and even the Old Madam of Duke Xing’s Mansion, should all know something. She bit the corners of her lips hard with her teeth, and the sharp prick made her clearly realize what she should do now.

Duke Xing’s Mansion, Madam of Duke Xing, Old Madam of Duke Xing, she would get everything back.

“Miss, you have already known everything now. Please follow me to go back to Duke Xing’s Mansion, Old Madam will be very happy!” After saying this, Qu Le’s father got up and walked to Qin Wanru’s side with red eyes.

In his opinion, if he could find Qin Wanru, it was a great good thing to Duke Xing’s Mansion. Now that the causes and effects were clear, Qin Wanru only needed to acknowledge her ancestors and return to her family. This was also the wish of his old master.

“She won’t be happy! She has found another granddaughter!” Qin Wanru said slightly.

These words made Qu Le’s father very surprised. He looked at Qin Wanru in great shock. “How, how could it be possible. Miss is the daughter of our master. How could there be another one…”

Because this piece of news was so surprising to him, he stuttered and couldn’t say any words.

“Yes, my elder sister. Old Madam and Madam of Duke Xing both thought that my elder sister was the daughter of your master,” Qin Wanru said calmly without any emotion in her eyes as if she was talking about other people’s affairs.

“First Miss Qin, how could it be possible! First Miss Qin is the daughter of Madam Di and Ningyuan Army General. How could she be the Miss of Duke Xing’s Mansion?” Qu Le’s father said in shock.

He had been in Jiangzhou for a long time, and of course he knew Qin Yuru. And when he knew that Qin Wanru’s identity was doubtful, he also investigated Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion specially so he knew clearly about the background of Qin Yuru.

“She pretended to be two years old younger than she was and also took out the old orchid seal of Infanta Qinghua. Added that Madam Di doesn’t like her and even beats her to bruises on her body, and there are so many people seeing the bruises, so Old Madam thinks that the time is reasonable and the evidences are enough, and she will recognize her!”

Qin Wanru raised up her arch eyebrows with gloomy eyes.

“This… how could it be like this. It is wrong and impossible!” When Qu Le’s father heard that Old Madam would recognize Qin Yuru, he was so agitated that he was like an ant on a hot pan. After turning around two circles, he suddenly stood still and said to Qin Wanru firmly, “Miss, please don’t worry. I will go to Duke Xing’s Mansion at once and tell Old Madam about your things. I will certainly let Old Madam recognize you publicly!”

Publicly? Qin Wanru’s long eyelashes flickered twice. There was a glimmer of cold light in her eyes, and she sneered in her heart. In the previous life, even if Old Madam of Duke Xing’s Mansion recognized Qin Yuru as her own granddaughter, she didn’t announce it publicly. She only expressed her affection and love for Qin Yuru.

Duke Xing’s Mansion would not let the later generations of the dead heir of a duke powerful and prosperous. It was quite good to give her the identity as an unknown foster daughter. And then they would give her affection and love. That would be all the compensation that Duke Xing’s Mansion could give. Of course, this compensation would be given to Qin Yuru rather than herself. Otherwise, Madam of Duke Xing would not agree with it.

She was now one hundred percent for sure that Madam Di and Qin Yuru wanted to pretend to be her. Even if Madam Di and Qin Yuru came up with this idea themselves, it was inevitable that Madam of Duke Xing had planned it.

Fortunately, she totally had no expectation about Duke Xing’s Mansion!

“Old Madam and Madam of Duke Xing all believe in Qin Yuru and Madam Di now. It is useless for you to say anything. What’s more, do you really think that they will like me?” Qin Wanru said slowly.

When asked this question, Qu Le’s father couldn’t say anything at that time. Old Madam didn’t like Infanta Qinghua. If she didn’t take the identity of Infanta Qinghua into consideration, she would have tried her best to make Infanta Qinghua and Childe divorce and let the Cousin Miss marry him. Later when the Cousin Miss married with Second Young Master, she seemed to respect Infanta Qinghua.

But in fact, he had seen that after Cousin Miss said something to Old Madam, and Old Madam spared no effort to torture Infanta Qinghua to death many times. At that time, Infanta Qinghua lost a child because Old Madam forced Infanta Qinghua to kneel down. There would be some connection with Cousin Miss.

After this incident, Cousin Miss knelt down in front of the gate of Childe’s courtyard to show her apology to Infanta Qinghua. She said that she showed this apology for Old Madam. As the identity of Old Madam, even if she was wrong, she wouldn’t ask her, the other daughter-in-law to kneel down in front of the door of courtyard.

Qu Le’s father was the servant of Heir of Duke Xing then. He always followed Heir of Duke Xing. Just at that time, he saw that Childe, who was always a gentleman, kicked Cousin Miss hardly and asked her to go away coldly. And he also said that he didn’t want to see her anymore.

At that time, Cousin Miss cried hardly and couldn’t help but show her love to Childe. Until then Qu Le’s father knew that Cousin Miss hadn’t forgotten his Childe.

Now, Cousin Miss had been Madam of Duke Xing. Would she recognize the child of Infanta Qinghua? He wouldn’t forget the vicious curse of Cousin Miss at that time. Her beautiful face was so ferocious that she was like a ghost…

“Go, follow me to see Rui’an Great Elder Princess!” Seeing that he was still hesitating, Qin Wanru took a deep breath and said decisively. Before she went out of the door, she had prepared everything…
