Xuanyi said, "Biyu gave me a letter. She said she was pregnant and couldn't go out, and it was not convenient for her to come see the princess. She asked us to give the letter to the princess. The princess will understand after reading it."
As he spoke, he took out the letter. Duan Qingxi took it and looked at it carefully, his expression becoming more and more ugly.
Biyu said it very clearly in the letter. She had only recently discovered this matter. Duan Shishi probably held a grudge against Duan Qingxi because Biyu and Yun Xinling married Helian Yun. She was put in solitary confinement, and now even Helian Yun didn't pay much attention to her. She felt even more unwilling in her heart, thinking that it was Duan Hong and Duan Sijin's unwillingness to speak for her that led her to this point.
She felt bad herself, and naturally didn't want others to feel good, so she came up with an idea. After learning that Duan Sijin had made an appointment with Duan Qingxi to go out and watch the lanterns, she wanted to knock them out after they met, then drug them, and then while they were still asleep, pretend that Duan Qingxi had committed suicide due to humiliation.
If Duan Qingxi hadn't died, this matter would have definitely gotten out. By then, everyone would know that the two siblings were having an affair, and they wouldn't be able to explain it even if they opened their mouths a thousand times. If Duan Qingxi had died, that wouldn't have mattered. Death would have been perfect, putting an end to it all. Duan Sijin would definitely not have the energy to defend himself, and he might even have died to atone for his sins...
But unexpectedly, Duan Qingxi didn't go, and was replaced by Chan Xue.
And Chan Xue did not die, but was still alive and well. Duan Shishi was unwilling to accept this, so she made up a rumor to slander Duan Qingxi. However, no one was willing to believe the rumor, so she simply caused a death and made the matter bigger!
Duan Qingxi was so angry that he tore up the letter, but he still didn't feel satisfied. He wished that the letter was from Duan Shishi!
This woman is so vicious and cruel. It’s bad enough that she has a mental disorder, but she also does such a dirty thing!
When Duan Hong heard those rumors, especially when he knew that it was Duan Shishi who spread the rumors, he was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted. Duan Sijin was also very angry and almost rushed to the Fifth Prince's Mansion with a knife to kill.
But now is not the time to pursue Duan Shishi. They will definitely not let this woman go, but the most important thing now is to resolve the current rumors.
Now many people are spreading the news very widely. Most people don’t believe it, but there are also some people who like to watch the fun. They know that other people have their mouths on their backs, and it is useless to suppress such things with force.
Helian Sheng also hurried to the General's Mansion. He said to Duan Qingxi, "The only way to resolve this matter now is to get your brother married as soon as possible. Originally, there was nothing suspicious about this matter, but your brother is still unmarried at this age. In the past, people would at most say that he was impotent or that he had a homosexual relationship, but after this incident, everyone suspects that he is keeping it for you."
Duan Qingxi said helplessly, "But even if I betrothed my brother to someone, and we got married right away, I'm sure people wouldn't gossip. They might say he got married on purpose to hide this. Otherwise, why didn't he get married before but now?"
Helian Shengdao said, "So... you have to be careful about who you betroth to your brother. I've thought about it and think Chanxue is the most suitable."
"Zenxue?"
"Yes, firstly, your brother has always liked her. Secondly, she and your brother have already...she should be betrothed to your brother. It's only natural. Thirdly..."
Seeing that he suddenly stopped talking, Duan Qingxi said, "What's the third time? Go ahead and tell me..."
Helian Shengdao said, "This may sound unpleasant, but it is the only solution at this moment."
"What?"
"I also know about Chanxue. She was Miss Snow from Baihua Tower. She was a famous courtesan in the capital at the time. Her beauty was so stunning that she captivated the whole country. There was not a single young man in the capital who was not fascinated by her. You redeemed her on the night she was bidding for her bud, and later helped her change her appearance and named her Chanxue..."
After a pause, Helian Sheng continued, "So, it's normal for your brother to like Chanxue, and since you don't know whether your father is willing for your brother to marry Chanxue, you secretly help them, which is also reasonable..."
Duan Qingxi understood what Helian Sheng meant, but she was silent for a long time before she said, "Chanxue wants to marry my brother, but I don't want it to be this way."
Helian Sheng was not surprised. He sighed and said with a smile, "I knew you wouldn't agree."
