Rebirth and Reversal of Fortune

Chapter 385 The Truth Gradually Emerges, Misunderstandings Cleared Up

After a difficult investigation and meticulous peeling back of the layers, the investigation gradually yielded results, and the truth is about to come to light.

Despite the severe test of trust between Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling, their deep affection for each other and their unwavering pursuit of the truth kept them from giving up the investigation despite the difficulties.

Su Jinxiu spent her days and nights poring over various old palace archives, not letting go of any detail that might be related to the secret history of the Marquis's ancestors.

"This record seems to be inextricably linked to the truth we are looking for."

Xiao Ling then traveled around, secretly visiting elderly people who knew about the old stories.

"Father-in-law, please think about it again. What exactly happened back then?"

Hard work pays off, and their efforts finally began to bear fruit.

They discovered that the glory and disgrace of the Marquis's ancestors were not simply due to court power struggles, but also involved a huge treasure.

"So that's the key point."

The forces that plotted against the ancestors of the Marquis's family in their quest for the treasure still remain hidden deep within the palace.

As the investigation deepened, they gradually identified several key figures.

However, their actions also alerted those people.

"We must not let them find out the truth; we must eliminate them as soon as possible."

Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling begin to encounter various assassinations and traps.

On one occasion, Su Jinxiu was attacked by a group of assassins on her way back to the palace.

"Madam, be careful!"

Fortunately, Xiao Ling arrived in time and fought a desperate battle with the assassin, thus protecting Su Jinxiu's safety.

On another occasion, someone poisoned Xiao Ling's tea, but he managed to escape unharmed thanks to his timely discovery.

"These people are truly ruthless."

But they were not deterred by these dangers; instead, they became even more determined to uncover the truth.

During the investigation, they also unexpectedly discovered the conspiracy that was trying to sow discord between them.

"It turns out that all of this was their scheme to throw us into disarray."

Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling finally realized that they could no longer be swayed by the enemy's plot and had to reunite.

"We can no longer distrust each other; only by working together can we find the truth."

So they put aside their past grievances, and their trust in each other gradually returned.

Just as they were about to uncover the truth, an unexpected figure appeared.

"I didn't expect it to be you..."

This person's appearance has made the whole situation more complicated.

At a crucial moment, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling were honest with each other, cleared up their previous misunderstandings, and stood firmly together again.

As the truth drew ever closer, the danger grew ever more imminent. Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling both clearly realized that at this moment, there could be no more discord between them.

On a quiet night, the two met in a secluded courtyard of the Marquis's residence. The moonlight, like water, shone on their slightly tired faces.

"Xiao Ling, I misunderstood you before." Su Jinxiu broke the silence first, her eyes full of guilt.

Xiao Ling gently held Su Jinxiu's hand and said, "Jinxiu, I also have my shortcomings, and I have made you suffer."

They began to open their hearts, reminiscing about the past, those days of supporting each other and sharing hardships.

"Since we met and got to know each other, we've been through so much together. How can we become estranged because of a few words of provocation from others?" Xiao Ling said with emotion.

Su Jinxiu nodded, tears welling up in her eyes: "It was a moment of confusion on my part that almost caused me to lose you."

Xiao Ling wiped away Su Jinxiu's tears and said gently, "It's all in the past. We will never let such a thing happen again."

After being honest with each other, their relationship seemed to return to its initial state, and even became stronger and deeper.

However, before they could even savor the joy of their reconciliation, a new crisis loomed ahead.

Once the misunderstanding between them was cleared up, the opposing forces in the palace united and launched an even fiercer attack on them.

"This time, we must ensure they never have a chance to recover!"

The Marquis's estate was suppressed, and his business plummeted.

"Many partners have suddenly withdrawn their investment. What should we do?"

Xiao Ling's position in the court was also threatened, and some people impeached him for committing serious crimes.

"This is clearly a frame-up, but the Emperor seems to be enraged."

Su Jinxiu faced even greater difficulties in the palace, constantly being ostracized and harassed.

"This is unbearable."

But at this moment they were no longer afraid, because their hearts were closely connected.

Xiao Ling actively responded to the impeachments in the imperial court and collected evidence to prove his innocence.

"I will make those who framed me pay the price."

Su Jinxiu skillfully maneuvered within the palace, attempting to find powerful allies.

"Even if the hope is slim, I cannot give up."

Their children were also threatened in this turmoil.

"Protect the children and don't let them get hurt."

Just as they were doing their best to deal with the crisis, a mysterious person appeared and brought them an unexpected turning point.

"I can help you, but you must agree to one condition."

Who exactly is this person? And what conditions did he propose?
