Looking at Cui Yun'er's sorrowful expression, Su Xuerong suddenly thought of the situation in her previous life and immediately comforted her: "But now your cousin is in power. If he clears the Qiu family's name, maybe you can still be together."
Could that mysterious Marquis of Wuwei be this robust Qiu Cheng?
Cui Yun'er looked at Su Xuerong, and suddenly grabbed her hand excitedly, saying, "Arong, I knew you would help me!"
Su Xuerong was both amused and exasperated: "I'll ask about the Qiu family when I get back tonight..."
She suddenly paused, tilting her head to stare at Cui Yun'er: "Was it you who arranged for Qiu Cheng to wash the horses at the hunting grounds today?"
Cui Yun'er felt embarrassed that her thoughts had been seen through and said, "I just wanted to find an opportunity for you to meet him so that I could speak on your behalf."
Su Xuerong raised her chin in that direction.
After Qiu Cheng spotted Cui Yun'er, he turned away completely and didn't even glance at her.
He seemed very reluctant to see her.
"But does he know what you've done for him?"
Cui Yun'er shook her head: "He doesn't know, I specially asked someone to bring him here."
He could earn a string of cash a day, and he wouldn't miss this great opportunity to make money.
Su Xuerong looked at Cui Yun'er, feeling a little uneasy.
I just don't know if Qiu Cheng will accept this silly girl after doing so much for him.
Just then, Xiao Yuan walked over surrounded by a group of people.
Upon seeing Su Xuerong, everyone immediately bowed and greeted her: "Greetings, Your Highness!"
"Rise!"
Xiao Yuan turned around and said, "After lunch, everyone prepare yourselves. Today, you will all give it your all, and I will reward you handsomely!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Yuan's former followers dispersed in high spirits.
As soon as Cui Yun'er saw Xiao Yuan coming, it was as if a nail had been driven into her butt. She couldn't sit still any longer and made an excuse to slip away.
Su Xuerong also looked into the distance and saw that the grooms had finished washing the horses and led them back to the stables.
"What are you looking at?" Xiao Yuan followed her gaze and caught sight of the backs of several grooms, his eyes turning cold.
Seeing his expression, Su Xuerong couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why are you jealous? I'm looking at Yun'er's sweetheart!"
Xiao Yuan was stunned, his cheek twitching violently: "What? She's taken a fancy to a coachman?"
Su Xuerong said irritably, "Sit down, I have something to ask you."
Xiao Yuan sat down beside her, took a handkerchief from Xiu Chun and wiped his hands, then picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip: "What is it?"
Do you know Grand Tutor Qiu?
Xiao Yuan slowly put down his teacup and looked at her in surprise: "How did you know about this person?"
"The groom Qiu Cheng that Yun'er has taken a liking to is the youngest grandson of Grand Tutor Qiu."
Xiao Yuan was completely stunned, and then frowned deeply.
That was a wrongful conviction during the reign of my grandfather.
“Yun’er said that Qiu Cheng has been avoiding her ever since he found out her identity,” Su Xuerong said. “But I can also tell that Yun’er has taken a liking to him.”
Xiao Yuan shook his head: "No, my uncle won't agree."
"Is it because his current status is too low?"
"No!" Xiao Yuan looked at her with a complicated expression, "Back when Grand Tutor Qiu was murdered, the Cui family was also involved..."
At that time, the Cui family stood against the Qiu family, so the Cui family's grandfather was also considered one of the culprits who caused the Qiu family's downfall.
Su Xuerong was stunned.
How do we solve this?
Just now she thought the Cui family and the Xiao family were two separate families. If Qiu Cheng could be more rational, he might accept Yun'er.
But now that they know the Cui family was also part of the family that framed the Qiu family back then, it's no wonder Qiu Cheng can't accept Cui Yun'er.
She was immediately at a loss, but also somewhat puzzled.
If that's the case, then who did Cui Yun'er marry in her previous life?
But judging from the way Cui Yun'er looked at Qiu Cheng just now, this must be the person she loves.
So, how did the two resolve their grudges in their previous life?
Su Xuerong was somewhat uncertain about the ending of their previous life.
After all, many things have changed dramatically since I was reborn.
Perhaps in the future, the person who will help Xiao Yuan expand overseas will no longer be Cui Yun'er's husband...
Expand overseas!
Isn't the current candidate his own elder brother, Su Shirong?
Su Xuerong was shocked by herself!
Seeing her expression change repeatedly, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but smile and pinch her smooth, delicate cheek: "What are you thinking about?"
They seem quite concerned about other people's affairs!
Su Xuerong suddenly asked, "Has my older brother arrived?"
“He’s here, but he said he’s not good at hunting, so he’s staying on the outskirts with your father.”
"Where is Zhao You's sister?"
Xiao Yuan said irritably, "Being with the Zhao family."
Su Xuerong hurriedly asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to test her? When?"
Xiao Yuan looked speechless and pinched the bridge of his nose: "Let's do it tonight, after the first hunt of the day."
Since this place is not far from the imperial palace, all the people who came to hunt were arranged to stay at the imperial palace.
Su Xuerong was really curious to know who Cui Yun'er would ultimately marry!
A short while later, Xiao Hong returned with her two children.
The two children were overjoyed and were carried off the horse, still wanting more.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan stood up and said, "Jian-ge, come here!"
A little man should ride a horse by himself. What kind of behavior is it to be carried by a woman?
Su Jian immediately ran over: "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Although he was his uncle-in-law, his grandfather always reminded him to be respectful to the emperor.
Xiao Yuan was very happy with his nephew's thoughtfulness and immediately beckoned to a guard named Haifeng beside him: "Take the young master to ride a horse and give him the pony that I chose earlier."
