The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

The old lady and Song Hongwen and a group of people surrounded Yang Lan and returned to Qinfang Courtyard.

In the courtyard, Nanny Li and others had already made preparations. Some were responsible for checking, some were responsible for changing clothes. For a moment, everyone in Qinfang Courtyard became busy.

As such an incident had happened to the master, everyone in Qinfang Courtyard had an extremely grim look on their faces.

He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, he would offend his master and make him unhappy.

After Doctor Bai finished his consultation and Nanny Li helped Yang Lan back to her room to rest, the old lady and Song Hongwen, who had been feeling uneasy since morning, finally calmed down.

The old lady quickly turned the Buddhist beads in her hand and said in a cold voice: "Duke, we should let the Bai family give us an explanation for what happened today!

Otherwise, people outside would probably think that the Duke of Song’s Mansion is a vegetarian!”

The two legitimate daughters of the Duke's Mansion were injured at once. If the Duke's Mansion swallows this anger, I'm afraid that everyone will be able to step on the Duke's Mansion in the future.

The old lady was unhappy, and Song Hongwen was not in a much better condition now.

What the Bai Mansion did today clearly showed that it did not take the Song Mansion seriously, but the Fifth Prince had previously instructed him to avoid conflict with the Bai Mansion.

If I were to make trouble at this moment, no matter how I defend myself, the seeds of my disobedience would be planted in the Fifth Prince's heart.

Today, the capital is fraught with crises and the battle for the throne may begin at any time. If the Duke's Mansion loses the trust of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince at this time, it will be a loss!

The old lady was unaware of the Fifth Prince's instructions, so she could not put herself in Song Hongwen's shoes and understand the confusion and hesitation in his heart at the moment. She just thought that Song Hongwen was afraid of Bai Xiang's power.

"My Lord, you are so slow to speak, are you worried that the Bai family will become too powerful and endanger the mansion?

But Lord, there is a truth you should know: wealth and honor do not lead to debauchery, poverty and humbleness do not lead to change, and might and power do not lead to submission."

Today's Song Hongwen is no longer a young man who has just come out of the officialdom, but a veteran who has been immersed in the officialdom for many years. The old lady's words not only have no effect on him, but also sound particularly harsh.

"Mom, I have my own opinion on this matter.

Since Miss Lan is no longer in danger, my son has important matters to attend to, so he will leave first.

Mother has been busy all morning and has worked hard, Mother Rong, you should take the old lady upstairs to rest early."

After saying this, Song Hongwen, regardless of the old lady's ugly expression at the moment, simply rolled up his sleeves and left the room, leaving behind only the angry and distressed old lady and a room full of servants looking at each other in bewilderment.

Although Mother Rong is the managing nanny in the old lady's courtyard and the person the old lady trusts the most on weekdays, Mother Rong knows clearly in her heart that the Duke is still the one who has the final say in the Duke's Mansion.

After Song Hongwen left the house, Mother Rong came forward to support the old lady.

How could the old lady remain calm at this moment? She felt as if her mind was being pricked by needles, which was extremely unbearable.

"Mother Rong, what do you think the Duke is thinking? The Bai Mansion is already riding on the head of the Song Mansion!"

Hearing what the old lady said at this moment, Mother Rong was startled, and then looked around at the servants in the room.

Fortunately, most of the personal servants in Yang Lan's courtyard were serving under the orders of the old lady, and they were able to keep their mouths shut.

"If you let any of the content of the conversation between the Duke and the old lady leak out today, you should all be careful with your tongue!

Well, we don't need these people to serve in the room now, so you all leave."

After everyone left, Rong's mother supported the old lady and said, "Old lady, the Duke faces so much pressure every day. The forces and aspects he has to consider and weigh must be beyond our understanding."

With slightly red eyes, the old lady murmured, "There is something unspeakable that cannot be said."

Mother Rong sighed slightly in her heart. What the Duke did today was really over the line. He did not give the old lady any face at all. It was no wonder that the old lady was angry.

As the nanny closest to the old lady, Mother Rong knows the relationship between the old lady and the Duke best.

When the Duke first returned to the mansion, he would take some time every day to talk to the old lady, and the relationship between mother and son was naturally close.

But gradually, after the Duke was dismissed from office, he came to the upper room less and less often, and the mother and son talked less and less, so the old lady's understanding of the Duke naturally faded.

It really proves the saying that things smell good from a distance but smell bad up close.

"Madam, the Duke is your own son, whom you raised since childhood.

You know the Duke's temper best.

If the Duke doesn't want to speak, he must have his reasons."

Unlike the "lively" Qinfang Courtyard, Linhu Courtyard has relatively fewer quarrels.

Lying on the couch, Yang Qi rubbed his eyebrows helplessly: "This auntie is so nagging, it's really unbearable."

Looking at the young lady's appearance, Madam Zhu and Mama He smiled at each other.

Mother He wet the handkerchief with warm water and handed it to the young lady: "Besides, what happened today was too dangerous. Young lady should be more careful in the future."

Yang Qi reluctantly took the handkerchief handed over by He's mother and wiped his cheek carefully: "There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days if you are a thief.

Besides, do the Bai family really dare to use poisonous snakes to scare us?"

Hearing the young lady's indifferent tone, Nanny Zhu spoke first: "Young lady, today's matter is not a trivial matter.

Miss, you need to be more vigilant and never relax.

Having just gone through a series of questions from Madam Xu, Yang Qi didn't want to go through the questioning from Madam Zhu and Mama He again, so she had to raise her hand and beg for mercy: "Okay, I get it. I will be more careful in the future."

When Madam Zhu and Mama He saw Yang Qi's expression at the moment, they knew that the young lady did not take the matter to heart. Just as they were about to speak, a man appeared in front of them.

His eyebrows were as natural as if they were cut by a knife, his nose was as high as a mountain ridge, his eyes were deep, and the fitted yellow brocade robe made the man's tall and upright figure look very noble.

Nanny Zhu took a look at the person who came in, immediately lowered her head, and pulled the dazed He Mama out, completely ignoring He Mama's inner confusion at the moment. How did this person get into the house and when did he come in?
