The reborn son cursed his mother, bah, she heard it all

When the Prince Qin's Palace took action, the Duke Jiang's Palace was not left behind.

"Madam, regarding the matter between the two young ladies, I think the best way is to arrest Madam Jiang and interrogate her!"

Nanny Tang stood in front of the couch and told him what she had just learned. "Her son Cao Yong died tragically because of Luo Shi. It was like exchanging one life for another."

"That year, the war was intense, and the Duke was bloodthirsty and invincible. In order to restrain the Duke, the enemy sent people to capture Luo as a hostage."

"It was Cao Yong who single-handedly stopped the pursuers and prevented Luo from being captured. This prevented the Duke from being attacked from all sides."

"This should have been a righteous act that should have been praised and appeased, but Luo was afraid that the Duke would blame her for sneaking out during her pregnancy, so she kept the matter a secret!"

"After more than a month, they found a reason to give Nanny Cao a family name, and then brought Guo to the mansion to help with the pregnancy."

"I am afraid that after the incident with Madam Cao, she actually had resentment towards Luo for a long time, but she just didn't show it. Later, when Madam Guo had a difficult childbirth and lost the baby, her family was broken up, so it is not impossible that she had evil intentions to replace the baby!"

The more the old lady listened, the more her brows furrowed.

Her narrowed cold eyes seemed to reflect the scene of her first meeting with Luo Shi.

The girl was wearing frosty clothes, with clear makeup on, and she lowered her head timidly.

At an age when she should be bright and shy, her eyes are jumping and lack purity, and upon closer inspection, they seem timid and materialistic.

She saw through it at a glance that this girl would not be able to be the mistress of the Duke's Mansion.

But his son loved her so much that he was obsessed with marrying her.

Now, who can be blamed for such consequences?

"It's not that I can't tolerate people. Look at what she did. Not to mention the Duke's Mansion, even a family of lower status would never be so foolish!"

The old lady was filled with hatred and regret, and she began to cough angrily, covering her face with a handkerchief.

Nanny Tang hurriedly stroked her back, "Who said it wasn't true? Madam is usually fine, why is it that when faced with a big event, her mind becomes even more unclear?"

After a while, the old lady finally controlled herself and panted, "Forget it. A person's character is innate. What's the point of us talking about it here? Things have come to this, Madam Tang, I'll do as you say!"

Nanny Tang was embarrassed, "But Nanny Jiang is usually either in front of Mrs. Luo or Miss Di. It's not easy to kidnap someone quietly."

The old lady propped herself up after hearing this and said, "Then send them away."

"Where are Yinshuang and Yinping? Call them in to help me change my clothes. Madam Qi asked me to go flower viewing a while ago, so today is a good day to go."

"This old lady Qi is the grandmother of Sister Lin's sweetheart. Guess if she heard that I am going to the Qi family, would she be restless and fascinated?"

"Of course." Nanny Tang smiled, with a calculating gleam in her eyes.

As expected, when Kangjitang announced that they were going to visit the Qi family, Jiang Yilin couldn't go directly to the old lady for fear of being scolded, so she simply ran to Luo and held her clothes tightly, "Mom, I want to go to the Qi family too."

"I heard that Prince Yan is the most filial to this grandmother. If I can please Old Madam Qi before I get married, Prince Yan will definitely look up to me in the future."

Luo was doing needlework at the moment and had to put it down first.

Holding Jiang Yilin's hand affectionately, "You can't tolerate anyone else in your eyes now. You only have your future son-in-law in your heart."

Jiang Yilin blushed, "Mother! I didn't! If you say that again, I won't talk to you anymore!"

"Haha." Luo laughed and looked at her daughter's shy face, her eyes full of doting.

"Okay, okay, for your sake, I will shamelessly go to the old lady."

Hearing this, Jiang Yilin instantly smiled like a flower, "I knew that mother loves me the most."

Since it was a setup, the old lady knew when to go after the mother and daughter arrived, and in the end, she managed to keep both Nanny Tang and Nanny Jiang.

"The Qi Mansion is not close, so you two older ones don't need to go. Take the younger ones with you."

Luo had no objection, and Jiang Yilin's heart had already flown to Qi Mansion, and she didn't even blink an eye.

The old lady stood up and gave Nanny Tang a look that told her to seize the opportunity, then she led four or five servants out in a grand procession.

Jiang Yilin and Luo Shi each brought only one personal servant with them, and a special errand boy who rode on horseback to deliver the visiting card first, so as not to confuse the host.

After they left, Nanny Tang quickly brought a few strong and steady old women and tied up Nanny Jiang when she passed by the garden!

In a very secluded back room, Nanny Tang asked someone to splash water on Nanny Jiang to wake her up.

She struggled so hard when she was caught just now, so in order not to alert too many people, Nanny Tang could only knock her out first.

When she opened her eyes dazedly, Nanny Jiang found herself tied to a chair, her hands and feet were rubbed red, and her face was filled with disbelief and horror.

Then, she looked up and saw Nanny Tang sitting not far away drinking tea.

Nanny Jiang's heart skipped a beat, and she said in a timid tone, "Nanny Tang, did you take the wrong medicine? Why are you arresting me?"

Nanny Tang drank her tea leisurely and chuckled, "Don't be angry, this is all the old lady's order. Otherwise, I am just a housekeeper like you, what right do I have to arrest you?"

Although she had expected this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous after hearing what Nanny Tang said. "Why...why? I have worked diligently in the Duke's Mansion for so many years, and rarely made mistakes. Why did the old lady arrest me?"

"Really?" Nanny Tang raised her voice, "You should think carefully about whether you have done anything detrimental to the Duke's Mansion in these years. It is better for you to confess yourself than for me to torture you."

"We are all old and in poor health. If we can endure less physical pain, then let's endure it as little as possible."

Nanny Jiang was horrified. Nanny Tang was too calm. Did she really have something on her?

Over the years, as the housekeeper, she occasionally accepted some donations from her subordinates and used her position to secretly embezzle some money. Such things did happen.

But this kind of petty corruption is almost common in the inner house.

As long as it is not too excessive, the owners will mostly turn a blind eye.

Could it be that the old lady finally couldn't tolerate her anymore and that's why she wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble?

But if it was just a minor crime like this, it wouldn't be easy to completely defeat her.

Nanny Jiang pouted and made up her mind not to say anything. She didn't believe that Nanny Tang would dare to torture her to extract a confession.

In the end, Nanny Tang didn't rush to take action, but just looked at her with a smile, "Nanny Jiang, don't blame me for not reminding you. Since you have fallen into such a situation today, it means that the old lady has completely grasped your guilt.

"I'm asking you this question simply to give you a chance to reflect on yourself.

"I don't like beating around the bush, so I'll remind you that what you need to explain is what happened in Border Yao City sixteen years ago!"

Nanny Jiang's pupils suddenly shrank. The words "sixteen years ago" and "Yaocheng" were like a heavy hammer hitting her heart!
