The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Nanny Zhu was outside the courtyard and didn't need to go in. Just by listening to the noise, she knew what was going on in the courtyard.

When Nanny Zhu returned to the banquet table, everyone had just started eating.

Walking up to the young lady, Nanny Zhu whispered in her ear, "Young lady, the Madam has passed away."

Yang Qi shuddered all over, and her hand holding the teacup shook, and the whole cup of tea spilled on Yang Qi's dress.

Han Chu, who was standing by, heard the noise and couldn't help but look towards Yang Qi: "Yang Qi, what's wrong with you?"

Yang Qi shook his head: "Nothing, I didn't hold it firmly just now, I'll go back to the room and change clothes."

Han Chu nodded: "Go quickly, your second sister is here."

After Yang Lan completed her coming-of-age ceremony, she took her seat. The task of entertaining the guests naturally fell on Yang Lan's shoulders.

After they were out of everyone's sight, Nanny Zhu stepped forward and supported the young lady.

Yang Qi waved his hand. He was well aware of An's physical condition.

Song Hongwen had acted ruthlessly that day. If the wound on the buttocks had not been carefully treated by a doctor, it would have been life-threatening.

These days, An's condition has been getting worse and worse, and even the scab has not formed.

Seeing that the young lady's steps were a little unsteady, Nanny Zhu said worriedly, "Young lady."

The young lady had already prepared herself for the matter concerning Mrs. An, so she would not lose her composure at this moment. I think what made the young lady upset was still the matter concerning Miss Bai.

Yang Qi waved her hand: "Mammy, there are many guests at the banquet today. Please help me change clothes. We have to go back early."

Yang Jing was crying in the main room. Naturally, the news of An's death spread very quickly.

Today is a good day for Song Yanglan. The Fifth Prince is willing to give the Duke's Mansion this respectability, and Song Hongwen is also trying to curry favor with him, so the atmosphere of the chat between the two is quite good.

However, the good mood of Song Hongwen, the old lady and Song Yanglan all came to an abrupt end after they learned that An had passed away.

Especially Yang Lan, who was younger than Song Hongwen and the old lady. Although she was calm, she had little experience. In such an occasion today, such an unlucky thing happened. Although Yang Lan's face did not change, she was already extremely anxious in her heart.

With the corner of his eye, he silently glanced at the Fifth Prince in the room. Yang Lan wanted to deal with the matters in the main room, but he had no time to get away.

After An left, I was afraid that my sixth sister would cry so hard that she would be at a loss.

But his sixth sister had made a scene in an occasion like today, and he was afraid that the rumors that the Duke's Mansion had suppressed with great difficulty would spread around the capital again.

Yang Lan looked at the place where Yang Qi was sitting, which was now empty: "Where is the third sister?"

Han Chu put down his chopsticks and explained with a smile: "Sister Yang Lan, we were joking just now and accidentally spilled tea on Yang Qi.

Yang Qi had no choice but to go back first and change clothes before coming back."

"I see."

Then, Yang Lan turned to Madam Li and said, "Madam, go to the main room and watch it yourself. Don't make a big fuss.

Also, have someone go to Linhu Courtyard to inform Third Sister that she will go directly to the main house later."

Over the years, the sixth sister has been growing up under An's pampering, so naturally she acts a little radically.

Now, my grandmother, father, and second aunt are all at the banquet, and the only one who is reliable and able to stabilize the situation is my third sister.

As for Aunt Yin and Yang He, these two people are too cunning and Yang Lan cannot trust them.

An's death was too sudden. Nanny Li knew that Yang Lan had made good arrangements and said, "Don't worry, young lady. I will arrange it right away."

Inside the house, the Fifth Prince was a very perceptive person. Noticing that everyone in the Duke Song's Mansion had a strange look on their faces, he guessed that something urgent had happened in the mansion.

"My Lord, is there something urgent that needs to be dealt with?"

Song Hongwen wiped his sweat with a handkerchief. After hearing what the fifth prince said, he pretended to be calm and said, "It's all because of the ignorance of the servants. Even these small matters have to be reported."

Seeing that Song Hongwen was a little impatient, Marquis Yongyi quickly filled his glass and tried to smooth things over: "Your Highness, the wine today is good. I would like to offer you a glass. I hope Your Highness will do me the honor."

Marquis Yongyi has always been an absolute helper to the Fifth Prince. When he spoke, the Fifth Prince had no reason to refute and drank the wine in the glass without hesitation.

Linhu Courtyard is located in a remote area. Even if there is a banquet in the mansion today and the noise is loud, by the time we arrive at Linhu Courtyard, no sound can be heard.

When Yang Qi brought Nanny Zhu into the yard, they saw Xin Che waiting outside the house.

When Yang Qi entered the room, Xin Che grabbed Nanny Zhu and whispered in the young lady's ear: "Young lady, His Highness is here."

I see. But how come Your Highness has time to come here today?

Yang Qi was a little confused. She did not see His Highness when she pushed the door open. She arrived at the Back Lake with ease and saw His Highness the Crown Prince in a dark suit, enjoying the sunlight with his eyes closed.

"Your Highness."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had heard the footsteps of the maid a long time ago. He did not open his eyes when he heard the maid's voice: "No wonder you like to sit here when you have nothing to do. It feels really good."

As soon as the prince opened his mouth, Yang Qi could hear the deep fatigue in his voice.

Looking at the dark circles under the Crown Prince's eyes, Yang Qi knew that His Royal Highness must have had a very hard time these days.

Slowly walking forward, Yang Qi stood behind His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Then, he hugged His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tightly in front of him and took a deep breath.

Sensing the softness behind him, His Royal Highness paused, then asked softly, "What happened?"

If Huo Xuan was here and heard the Crown Prince's voice at this moment, he would be shocked. Is this, is this still the Crown Prince whom he has known since childhood and who has been aloof and cold since childhood?

Yang Qi buried his head in the clothes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and whispered, "I met Miss Bai today."

Although he said this, there was no trace of resentment in Yang Qi's words.

Originally, Yang Qi wanted to ask His Highness why he came here today?

But seeing His Highness's tired look, Yang Qi suddenly didn't want to know the answer to this question anymore.

Listening to the girl's angry words, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince found it really interesting: "So, you are jealous now?"

Yang Qi nodded: "Your Highness has not seen what happened today. With the status of Crown Princess, Miss Bai is much more valuable than all the other ladies present."

It was rare to see the girl in such a sullen state, so the Crown Prince turned around and hugged the girl: "What happened?"

The girl was decisive. Maybe she had some grudges about Bai Yuxin before, but she had already made things clear. Since the girl said she had let it go, then she must have let it go.

He said this today, he must have done it on purpose to make himself feel better and happier.
