After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife always wanted to leave her father behind and keep her

"Girl." Yulan knelt on the ground, her voice trembling.

Cheng Songan looked at her speechlessly. Although Yulan came into the mansion later than Haitang, she had been serving by her side since she was in her teens. She was also a steady person, and she had never doubted her until her death in her previous life.

After a long while, she asked aloud, "Yulan, why don't you believe me?"

Yulan looked up in astonishment. She had not expected that she would ask such a question instead of scolding him. She was stunned for a moment and then lowered her head again: "I don't understand what you are saying, young lady."

When Haitang secretly ordered Yulan to be detained at night, Qiangwei knew the whole story. She had barely managed to hold back until now, but seeing Yulan like this, she couldn't help but angrily said, "Yulan, we have lived together since we were young, and the young lady has treated us well. Have you lost your conscience?"

Yulan's face was pale. She didn't dare to look at her. She asked in a low voice, "I couldn't sleep at night. I just went out. Although it was against the rules, I didn't cause any big trouble. Why did you lock me up?"

Qiangwei choked and didn't know how to refute her.

Haitang sighed faintly: "Yulan, it's already this time, why don't you admit it? Smell your clothes."

Yulan was startled, and carefully pulled her sleeves, and put it to her nose to smell. A faint fragrance of Sanskrit was smelled, and she felt relieved and said calmly: "Yesterday, the girl asked me to go to Cixian Hall to clean up the guest room. She took the Sanskrit incense from us and lit it for the second girl. This smell must be left at that time."

Haitang sneered, "We don't have any Fanyin incense here. We just used a bottle with cold maple incense in it. This fragrance is very easy to evaporate. Even if you stayed there all night, the smell would be gone in less than an hour. What's more, you were only there for a while to clean the room. How could it still be on your clothes after yesterday afternoon and a whole night?"

After hearing this, Yulan sat down on the ground dejectedly and said no more.

Cheng Songan said, "Second sister doesn't like these scents. She must have had the ones you lit yesterday replaced."

After a pause, he continued, "Actually, after you came back, I asked Taxue to tell Xiuhe at my mother-in-law's place about my second sister's preferences, and Xiuhe placed several kinds of incense she liked next to the incense burner. I think you must have picked up these smells from going to her room last night."

Yulan was Cheng Songan's maidservant who came with her as a dowry. She had a gentle temperament and acted steadily. She got along very well with the maids and servants in the mansion. When she came out in the middle of the night, the old women would definitely think that she was doing something under Cheng Songan's orders and would not stop her.

Cheng Wanxin was staying in the Cui Mansion, a large mansion, in the Cixian Hall of the mistress of the house. If she came out to wander around in the middle of the night, she would definitely be talked about, so she could only see Yulan in the room.

Yulan's tears fell down, she just lowered her head and cried silently without refutation.

Haitang became even more annoyed. She squatted down and pushed her, scolding: "Are you dumb? Speak!"

Cheng Songan stopped her and sighed, "In the end, it's just for love. Yulan, is your fiancé good to you?"

After Yulan married that man and left Beijing in her previous life, she never heard from them again and had no idea what happened to them in the rest of their lives.

Yulan could no longer bear it, and fell to the ground, crying bitterly: "Girl, I'm sorry, I am willing to accept your punishment."

Cheng Songan looked down at her, crying with the same guilt and helplessness as when she got married in her previous life. However, no matter how guilty and helpless she felt, she still betrayed her.

"Yulan, I think I treat servants as badly as others do, and I have never regarded you as inferiors. I also ask for sincerity in return for sincerity, but you, why don't you come to me to help you?"

Yulan cried for a while, her face was covered with tears, and her lips trembled a little: "Girl, you are the best girl in the world, I believe you will help me, but the second young lady, she, she is not simple, girl, you are not as scheming as her, I can't gamble with his life..."

Cheng Songan took a deep breath. The sweet aroma from the incense burner eased a lot of her anger and pain. She sank her eyes and asked, "What did you say to Cheng Wanxin?"

At this point, Yulan had no way to deny it, so she admitted that she had been in private contact with Cheng Wanxin since the beginning of the year at the Cheng Mansion, and reported Cheng Songan's movements to her from time to time. After arriving at the Cui Mansion, Cheng Wanxin was under house arrest, which reduced her contact with her.

After Cheng Wanxin got engaged, Cheng Zhongwen no longer kept her under control, but she was always followed by a group of people whenever she went out. So he contacted Yulan again, and as soon as he arrived at Cui's house, he told her to meet her when no one was around, and to tell her about Cheng Songan and Cui Yuanqing's recent relationship, how they got along, etc.

Cheng Songan listened and was lost in thought. She had never known that Cheng Wanxin was also so worried about gains and losses in this relationship. Could it be that Cui Yuanqing was also so hot and cold towards her that she was so unstable that she even needed to monitor his original wife to feel at ease?

Qiangwei was so angry that she was shaking. She glanced at Yulan and asked, "She was just asking? Nothing else?"

Yulan bit her lip, her eyes full of pain.

Haitang said coldly: "If it was just for this, I wouldn't lock you up. Tell me, how did you poison the girl?"

Qiangwei was startled, her voice trembling, and she grabbed her collar and said, "How dare you poison the girl?"

Yulan looked at Cheng Songan in horror. This matter was done very secretly, leaving almost no trace. How did she know?

"Miss, I dare not admit the crime of poisoning..."

Cheng Songan also put away his last bit of reluctance. He thought that she had served him and he had no choice. Fortunately, he found out early in this life and could save her life. But at this time, she still refused to admit it.

"Yulan, is that man better to you than I am?" Cheng Songan asked quietly.

The first-class maidservants around her receive two taels of silver every month. Although they don't live a life of luxury here, at least they live a stable life without worrying about food and clothing, and they don't have to suffer bullying. That man is just a commoner, and he has never achieved anything in his previous life. Is he really better off than her?

Yulan's tears fell again: "Miss, even if it's you, will the master let you stay in the Cheng family for the rest of your life? Don't you still have to get married? No matter who you marry, don't you still have to obey your husband? This is the fate of us women."

Cheng Songan took a long breath and was about to let Haitang take her away first, but Yulan began to tremble all over. She went from kneeling on the ground to lying on her back, with a very painful expression on her face, and she seemed to be unable to breathe.

Cheng Songan was startled and didn't know what was wrong with her, but he saw Taxue appear at the door with a contemptuous smile.

"There are people who are not afraid of death, but no one is not afraid of a life worse than death!" Taxue squatted down and said with a smile.

Yulan's throat gurgled and she tried to reach out to grab her, but her hands were gently brushed away by Taxue.
