The Marquis' Mansion was in commotion for most of the night, and no one followed the relatively strict rules that were originally set by the Third Madam. By early morning, everyone knew that the Fifth Madam had fallen ill the night before and had asked the imperial physician for help.
Nanny Ni from the fifth room was so shocked that she didn't know what to do. Princess Changning had just entered He'an Courtyard last night, and she was pulled aside by Nanny Hua to talk for a while, and then sent back to the main courtyard.
Who would have thought that Princess Changning would not come back that night
Not only that, it would have been fine if Princess Changning didn't come back, but after she waited all night, she actually got the old lady's maid Qingyu to come back.
She was younger than Madam Ge, but that was all. Madam Ge had not been in good health for many years, and her health was not much better. When she saw Qingyu, a rare guest, coming, and thought about what had happened in the past few days, she was so nervous that she even forgot to speak.
It was Linglong who secretly tugged at her sleeve from behind and called her "Sister Qingyu" with a smile that finally made Nanny Ni react. She quickly ordered the little maids to pour tea.
He followed Qingyu's steps attentively and said, "Miss Qingyu, how come you have time to come here today? I wonder if our wife..."
Qingyu stopped in the hall, with a sad look on her face: "Please don't say anything... The old lady was really mad at the fifth master last night..."
Fifth Master? Madam Ni thought about it for a moment and wanted to stamp her feet. How come this couple is going backwards? Don’t they know how to choose the right occasion when they quarrel
I used to know that family disgrace should not be made public, so no matter how serious the quarrel between the two of them was, it was always within control and I never told the adults.
Now I don’t know what’s going on. Not to mention the quarrels every few days, they even quarreled with the old lady. Do they think the matter is not big enough
Originally, Princess Changning went to call for justice yesterday...
Nanny Ni finally realized what was going on and shuddered. She looked at Qingyu in disbelief, then quickly took off a white jade bracelet with floating flowers from her wrist and pushed it into Qingyu's hand without making a sound.
She knew that the people in the old lady's room were difficult to bribe, but Qingyu was famous for his good conduct, so she still hoped to get some information.
Qingyu smiled and put the bracelet back into Ni Ma's hand. He patted her gently and sighed, "The Fifth Madam and the Fifth Master had a fierce quarrel. They said all kinds of unpleasant things. The old lady was so angry that she felt dizzy. She said a few harsh words..."
Madam Ni was terrified and tried to interrupt several times, but was interrupted by Qingyu. She had no choice but to wait until Qingyu finished speaking before asking, "Is the old lady okay?"
"The old lady is fine." Qingyu took the tea handed to her by Linglong, but did not drink it. He gently put it aside and said to Madam Ni: "It was the Fifth Master. He was anxious to go to see the old lady, but the Fifth Madam grabbed him, so he lost his grip and caused the Fifth Madam to fall..."
I fell down...
Nanny Ni exclaimed, and finally understood.
How could it be so easy to let go of the failure of planning against Wei An yesterday
This is probably because Mrs. Wei was angry.
Linglong was so frightened that her hands were shaking, and she stood aside not daring to even breathe.
When gods fight, the ones who suffer are these little ghosts.
I don't know what happened to Princess Changning... If something goes wrong, they won't have a good time...
Qingyu glanced at them and asked softly, "Did anyone go out?"
Nanny Ni was startled and quickly stood with her hands down and answered no.
They can't go out. This morning, when Nanny Ni wanted to go to He'an Courtyard, she was stopped by the gatekeeper. She thought it was Princess Changning's order, but now it seems that it was probably Old Madam Wei who didn't want them to go out.
Qingyu nodded, and smiled as she instructed Madam Ni: "Madam, please pack some clothes. Madam Wu fell hard, rolling down the stairs and hitting her head. We asked Consecrator Kong to come and see her overnight. Consecrator Kong said that the injury was not serious, but she could not move. We need to see the situation first. Madam Wu will stay at the old lady's place for the next few days..."
Nanny Ni was so frightened that she could hardly hold the things. When Qingyu coughed again, she was struck by lightning and agreed in a heavy voice.
Qingyu then smiled and said, "But the maids don't have to go over to serve. The old lady likes quietness in He'an Courtyard. If there are too many of you over there, she will feel uncomfortable."
Nanny Ni agreed, but she was thinking in her heart whether she should invite the old princess and the prince and princess.
In this situation, she has no idea what happened to Princess Changning. Her life and death all depend on Old Madam Wei. If something really happened to Princess Changning, only the old princess and the others could help.
But Qingyu seemed to have predicted their thoughts. While urging Linglong to find clothes, she told her, "Oh, I've sent someone to notify the old princess. She'll be here soon after receiving the news. Ask her opinion later and then make a decision. You people should keep calm. Ma'am, you are the one in charge. These five rooms are depending on you."
She was hinting at something, and looking at the place where Wei Yulong lived in the east wing, Nanny Ni immediately understood.
Now it was useless for her to say anything, so she agreed with a confused heart and sent the herring out personally.
Qingyu didn't come here to pack up things, but to warn them not to be nosy, not to move around too much, and to stay in the house.
After thinking it over, she didn't dare to let anyone out - the Third Madam was a low-key person, but she was not someone who was easy to deal with. Since the old lady had given the order, the Third Madam must have guarded the mansion like a solid wall...
Guardian...
Nanny Ni sighed heavily.
Wei An did not sigh. She was watching Mr. Kong prescribing a prescription for Princess Changning.
Mr. Kong was a smart man. He understood what the Third Lady said as soon as she said it. He wrote two prescriptions. One was for calming the mind and treating insomnia, and the other was for treating headaches. He also specifically instructed the patient to buy medicine for external application on the head.
Mrs. Wei smiled and sighed, and asked someone to get the medicine. When she heard the banging noise inside, she still calmly asked Kong Gongfeng to go outside: "I am really sorry to bother you, father-in-law. I came to invite you so late last night. I really feel sorry for tiring you all night... Why don't you stay at home and have a simple meal..."
He then repeatedly instructed the third wife to go down and prepare.
Mr. Kong sighed inwardly.
How could he not notice the secrets of the family? But his daughter was in this vortex, and she didn't want to fall into it, so she had to fall into it.
Wei An stayed in Princess Changning's room, meeting Princess Changning's vicious gaze with a cold look.
Princess Changning looked at her for a long while, then spat on the ground first, and said coldly, "If I had known earlier, I should have thrown you to death first! You bastard!"
Wei An handed the prescription to Lan He and laughed, "It's a pity that I didn't know it earlier. Madam, do you still expect me to thank you for not knowing it earlier?"
