In order to make Gu Shaoyu treat her better, she even gave him full military support when he was trying to seize the throne.
However, when Gu Shaoyu ascended the throne, it was not her daughter who was named queen, but Qiao Yunbai who had been lurking by their side.
At that time, General Xu no longer had military power, and the first thing Gu Shaoyu did upon ascending the throne was to demote him to a commoner.
When the original owner's brother learned about this at the border, he rushed back to support them.
But he was intercepted and killed on the road.
The reason was that if a military general was not recruited to come to the capital, it would be a capital crime.
When her father found out, he became furious and fell seriously ill.
He still did not blame his daughter for ending up like this.
Even though his body was already at the end of its strength, he was still thinking about her who was in the palace.
Before he died, he used his last bit of connections to bring the original owner out of the palace.
The original owner had no idea about the changes that had happened in her family. Ever since Gu Shaoyu ascended the throne, she had been locked up in a small courtyard in the corner of the palace.
She was not allowed to contact the outside world, so when the original owner came out and learned about the changes in her family, she went crazy.
When she ran back to the palace, she saw the man who claimed that he would love her forever, hugging and kissing her cousin Qiao Yunbai.
After hearing all their plans, the original owner finally realized what he had done.
She was the one who destroyed their family.
The original owner was crazy.
When Qiao Yunbai found out, she just felt guilty and cried while hugging Gu Shaoyu.
Tell her what she doesn't want to know, don't want her to find out all this, just let her live in a deception.
Looking at the kind-hearted Qiao Yunbai, Gu Shaoyu felt that he loved her even more, and then promised Qiao Yunbai that he would spare the original owner's life.
Then the crazy original owner was thrown into a small courtyard in the imperial palace, and lived in a daze in that small world for more than 30 years.
He never regained consciousness until his death.
Seeing this, Xu Jinyi couldn't help but admire the acting skills of the person in front of him.
She had clearly been with Gu Shaoyu for a long time, but she pretended not to know him and watched them elope.
"Thank you, sister. It is because of your blessing that I am more determined. I must get my father's consent for my relationship with Brother Shaoyu."
"This way, when Brother Shaoyu and I get married, we can also get the blessings of Daddy and Brother, and all of you."
Qiao Yunbai was extremely nervous, watching the carriage drive into the busy street and was about to return to the general's mansion.
Qiao Yunbai always felt that things had gone off the track.
And for some reason, her cousin's eyes gave her the illusion that she had discovered something.
Qiao Yunbai smiled, as if she was not the one who suddenly lost her composure because of Xu Jinyi.
"Sister, you are right to think so. Uncle loves you so much, he will definitely agree with you and Brother Shaoyu."
"Yes, when Brother Shaoyu and I get married, you must come, sister."
Qiao Yunbai could only nod with a forced smile.
But I felt very uncomfortable.
It was already uncomfortable for her to let the person in front of her be her lover's concubine, and now Xu Jinyi wanted to be the wife. How could she tolerate this?
The position of Shao Yu's brother's wife was reserved for her.
Only she is worthy of being Shao Yu's brother's wife.
If it weren't for the fact that Brother Shao Yu needed the power of the Xu family, she would not have given up her beloved.
Qiao Yunbai felt uncomfortable when he thought that the person he loved would have to act out a love scene with Xu Jinyi in front of him in the future.
He didn't dare let Xu Jinyi notice anything unusual, so he could only endure it.
But he secretly hated Xu Jinyi. If she didn't have a good family background, they wouldn't have to do this.
If their identities were switched, she and Brother Shao Yu would be a perfect match now.
They soon arrived at the general's mansion. Before Xu Jinyi got off the carriage, General Xu ran out anxiously with a letter left by Xu Jinyi.
When he saw Xu Jinyi, General Xu's anxious and panicked expression eased.
"Daddy." Xu Jinyi bowed guiltily.
"Yier, you--" General Xu held the letter and wanted to ask, but he looked at the people coming and going and didn't say anything.
Xu Jinyi knew what her father wanted to ask: "I'm sorry to have worried you, but I just went out for a walk."
Girls should avoid suspicion when they grow up. General Xu just stood not far away and nodded when he wanted to get close to his daughter.
Xu Jinyi glanced at Qiao Yunbai who hadn't left yet and said, "Sister, you're homesick right now, and your luggage is packed, so I won't see you off."
The Xu family is more than just a little bit superior to the Qiao family, otherwise Gu Shaoyu would not have wronged his beloved like this.
So over the years, Qiao Yunbai actually lived more at the Xu family than at the Qiao family.
When Qiao Yunbai first stayed with her, her father felt it was inappropriate because she was not his own child after all.
But Xu Jinyi couldn't stop acting coquettishly, so she agreed to let Qiao Yunbai come over and stay for a while from time to time.
So much so that many people in the capital city still thought that the Xu family had two daughters.
Because Xu's mother passed away early and her father never remarried, there was no way a man would explain these things.
This is why people misunderstood that Xu Jinyi and Qiao Yunbai often went in and out together, and he never explained when asked about it.
But she didn't know that these were the results Qiao Yunbai wanted.
Qiao Yun's face turned pale and stiff. She wanted to go home because she was afraid that her uncle would blame her if she eloped, so she wanted to go home and hide.
Now that she doesn't even want to elope, why should she leave?
However, Xu Jinyi's intention to send her away was very clear, and Qiao Yunbai could only smile unwillingly: "Then sister, I will go home for a few days and come back in two days."
After entering the house, Xu Jinyi suddenly knelt down in front of her father.
"Yier, what's wrong? Hurry up and get up. Why are you kneeling down?"
Seeing that he couldn't pull her up, General Xu sighed heavily, thinking that she did this for that man Gu Shaoyu.
He closed his eyes and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "If you really like Gu Shaoyu, Dad will try to accept him, but marrying you will have to wait for another two years."
General Xu looked down on Gu Shaoyu not because he thought he was of low standard and not worthy of his daughter.
Moreover, he always felt that something was wrong under Gu Shaoyu's gentle expression.
I always feel that this person is not as simple as he seems, but I don’t understand him.
We sent people out to inquire about Gu Shaoyu's news, and all we got were positive words, not a single negative one.
This made him even more suspicious, which was why he objected so much.
But if his daughter really likes it, he is willing to try to accept it.
Xu Jinyi shook his head, held his father's hand, and had tears in his eyes.
"Dad, I am an unfilial daughter. I have caused you so much worry that you even eloped."
"I'm sorry, Daddy. I will listen to you in the future. You are right. If Gu Shaoyu really liked me, he would come to propose marriage openly instead of coaxing me to force you."
"I'm sorry, Daddy. It's my fault."
General Xu was surprised that his daughter suddenly came to her senses, and he felt distressed.
