Xiaoli quickly agreed, without any doubt about Hexi's decision.
Without waiting for Nanny Chen's reaction, He Xi had already taken her and quickly jumped into the carriage. Since Nanny Chen still had illusions about the Nalan Mansion and her cheap father, this time, let Nanny's naive desires be shattered.

In Yanjing City, the Nalan Mansion, one of the four major families, is very famous.
In addition, Nalan Zhengze is the highest-ranking doctor in Jinling and a junior member of the Medical Association. Many people ask Nalan Zhengze to treat their illnesses.
Therefore, ever since Mrs. Nalan Murong Yaru married into the Nalan family, she has been enjoying the noble status of being admired and envied by others. No matter where she goes, others have to please her and respect her.
But recently, Madam Nalan's hair was almost turning white with worry. She stayed in the Nalan Mansion all day long and dared not go out to attend any parties.
It’s because now the whole Yanjing City is spreading rumors about Nalan Feixue, and waiting to see the Nalan family make a fool of themselves.
Rumors like "Nalan Feixue fell in love with the young master of the Zhu family, and when seduction failed, she resorted to force", "Nalan Feixue was taken away by the young master of the Zhu family, and out of anger and shame, she whipped the young master to vent her anger", etc., have now become well-known to everyone.
Nalan Feixue was raised by her. If Nalan Feixue's reputation was ruined, wouldn't it mean that Murong Yaru did not teach her daughter well? This would affect the future of her eldest daughter and son. This was something Madam Nalan could not tolerate.
However, the Zhu family insisted that the person who stripped Zhu Yuanzhang's clothes was Nalan Feixue, and even took out Nalan Feixue's personal token. Even the shape of the personal token was widely circulated in Yanjing City, making it impossible for the Nalan family to deny it.
Unfortunately, her daughter Nalan Feixue was out training and not at home, so even if she wanted to come out and explain herself, she couldn't. Moreover, based on Madam Nalan's understanding of her daughter, she might really do such a thing.
Finally, it was the reminder from Madam Hu beside her that made Madam Nalan think of using Nalan Hexi, the concubine's daughter who had been abandoned in the other courtyard for more than ten years.
Thinking of Nalan Hexi, Mrs. Nalan inevitably thought of the woman from the past.
She has a stunning beauty, a noble and cold temperament, and an arrogance that makes her look down on everyone. She is obviously just a concubine, but she acts like an inviolable flower on the mountain, and even looks down on the master.
To this day, when Madam Nalan thinks of the indifferent expression of that woman looking at her, she trembles with anger. But the master loves her terribly, treats her with great respect, and does not allow anyone to approach or hurt her.
Isn't she just a shameless bitch who seduces men? Why, why should she, the real Madam Nalan, be so humble and kind to her? It's just a dream!
Fortunately, the woman died after giving birth to a daughter. What’s more, the daughter was an ugly creature who was incapable of cultivation and did not inherit any of her character and beauty.
However, it would be annoying to have such a lowly creature left there, so this time we might as well get rid of her as well.
Thinking of her pride, Madam Nalan showed a happy and vicious smile on her face. Just at this moment, a servant came in and reported: "Madam, the third young lady is here."
Soon, a young girl wearing men's coarse cloth and without any gold hairpins on her head, accompanied by an old maid, slowly walked into the room. (To be continued)
