The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Mother Rong's prediction was correct. Yang Lan was taught how to be a qualified mistress since she was a child. Therefore, Yang Lan had the awareness of keeping track of information since she was a child, and she had already planted her own spies in various places in the Duke of Song's mansion.

Yang Lan knew that although he was loved by the old lady in the mansion, the old lady was old after all and could not be a long-term support. If he wanted to become a superior person, the support of his father, the Duke of Song's Mansion, was indispensable.

This morning, Yang Lan took advantage of the holiday and went to her grandfather's house, the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, after asking the old lady for permission. Yang Lan's grandfather had recently found an excellent zither and sent someone to tell Yang Lan to go over and appreciate it. It was called appreciation, but in fact it was just a reason for Yang Lan to stay at the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion for a while. This zither was naturally to be given to Yang Lan.

The old lady was naturally happy to see that Marquis Yongyi and his wife loved Yang Lan, and she always readily agreed to Yang Lan's request to visit her.

What the Marquis Yongyi found was indeed an excellent zither, named Chenyue. As soon as Yang Lan got his hands on it, he couldn't let it go. In the following years, this zither also became famous in the Tianyuan Dynasty along with Yang Lan.

As Yang Lan's maternal grandfather and grandmother, Marquis Yongyi and his wife loved Yang Lan very much since she was a child. Every few days, they would let Yang Lan return to the Marquis Yongyi Mansion to stay for a few days. If it weren't for seeing how much Madam Song loved Yang Lan, Marquis Yongyi would have thought of raising Yang Lan in the Marquis Yongyi Mansion.

However, since Yang Lan started studying with Mr. Yang, her schedule has been very tight, and she hasn't been to the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion for a while. It must be said that Yang Lan is truly a masterpiece of God, and the elders all dislike her.

After lunch, the wife of the Marquis of Yongyi held Yang Lan in her arms and said, "I have been looking forward to it for a long time, but now I have to go back again."

Marquis Yongyi was somewhat helpless: "Mr. Yang is the most famous gentleman in the entire dynasty. In order to invite her, not to mention the Duke of Song's Mansion, we spent a lot of effort."

The wife of Marquis Yongyi understood all this, she just felt sorry for Yang Lan.

Yang Lan looked up at her grandmother and said with a smile, "Grandma, Mr. Yang will give me one day off every ten days. I will have time to visit you every day in the future."

Yang Lan's smile melted the heart of Marquis Yongyi's wife, and she held Yang Lan's hands even tighter.

After leaving the Yongyi Marquis's residence and getting on the carriage, Yu Lu, the maidservant beside Yang Lan, said, "Miss, the old lady got very angry this morning."

Yang Lan frowned and said, "Do you know why grandma is angry?"

Yu Lu hesitated for a while and replied, "The old lady's room was very tight-lipped this time. I only know that the Duke sent a letter this morning, and then the old lady got angry and called a doctor."

Yang Lan thought to herself that something was wrong. Could it be that something happened to Dad? "Did Grandmother summon anyone later?"

Yu Lu hesitated for a while and said, "The news that came in said that after the old lady got angry, she only saw the doctor and then she has been resting in her room."

No one was summoned, so it must not be an official matter. Could it be that An Shi had done something strange? Yang Lan knew something about her father's big move, but because of her young age and distance, Yang Lan did not place her own people around Duke Song like the old lady did.

After returning to the Duke Song's Mansion, Yang Lan went straight back to the upper room, reported to Mother Rong, and then looked at the old lady.

The medicine the old lady drank had a calming effect. When Yang Lan arrived, the old lady had already fallen asleep. Yang Lan looked at the sullen look on the old lady's face and had a vague guess in his mind: could it be that Daddy wanted to make An the legal wife?

After seeing the old lady, Yang Lan left the house, called Mother Rong to her room, and said, "Mother Rong, I have always respected you very much. Tell me the truth, why did Grandmother get angry?"

Mother Rong has been with the old lady since she was a child. She knows that Yang Lan is just a paper tiger now. She replied, "Second Miss, it's just a small matter. The old lady doesn't want to make Second Miss worry about it."

Yang Lan knew that she would not be able to get any information from Rong Mama, so she could only say, "Since grandma didn't want me to know, I won't ask any more questions. Rong Mama, you must inform me as soon as grandma wakes up."

After Rong's mother left the house, Yang Lan thought about it carefully. Since the old lady wanted to conceal it, other people must not know the origin of the matter. He could only start from the people around his father.

Having made up his mind, Yang Lan said, "Yu Lu, go ask the people who came back from the northwest this time to see if anything big has happened to my father recently. Yu Yin, go ask around in the courtyard to see what people outside have heard."

"Yes, miss." After receiving Yang Lan's order, Yu Lu and Yu Yin withdrew.

After finding the right direction, he quickly grasped the key to the matter. However, the news he got out of the investigation made Yang Lan, who was always shocked, unable to sit still.

Yang Lan lowered her voice and repeated word by word: "What? My father wants to make An his wife, and now An is pregnant!"

Yu Lu was also extremely shocked when she got the news from the servant. What on earth was the Duke thinking? He actually married a merchant woman as the head lady of the Duke of Song's mansion. Facing Yang Lan's angry gaze, Yu Lu gritted her teeth and replied, "Miss, this is what the servant said. It is said that the Duke of Northwest's mansion has already started preparing for the wedding."

Yang Lan's heart sank suddenly, and the cup in her hand fell to the side unconsciously. The hot water poured on Yang Lan's hands. Yang Lan's small hands, like peeled eggs, were immediately scalded red, but Yang Lan seemed not to notice.

Yu Lu and Yu Yin were extremely anxious. One of them hurried to wipe Yang Lan's hands, while the other went to the medicine box to get some burn ointment.

Looking at Yang Lan with a gloomy face, Yu Lu thought again and again, and then said: "Miss, no matter what the Duke says, you have to think about yourself."

As the saying goes, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. This Anshi is not like the previous Gushi. Now Anshi is very much loved by the Duke. If Anshi has a boy, the Duke will put all his attention on Anshi's yard.

Listening to Yu Lu's voice, Yang Lan did not speak, but closed his eyes and thought carefully about the current situation. Yang Lan now regretted very much that he had been too cautious before and did not place someone next to his father. Now he was caught off guard.

However, Yang Lan had always known that the old lady had sent people to follow Daddy, and that An had done so many things quietly and was able to avoid the eyes of her grandmother. In other words, An had already figured out who the old lady's people were and used them for her own purposes. This showed that An was definitely not a good person!
