Rong Qingqing raised her eyebrows, slapped the armrest of the chair and snorted, "What does this mean? Is my sister-in-law going to come to my Songfeng Tower to make the decision?"

Shen Yiran ignored her and turned his head to Bai Zhi and said, "Go and invite the old lady."

Tuantuan looked at the scene and felt a little guilty. He stood beside Rong Qingqing, holding her hand and crying, "Mother, it must be because the princess is sick, and she wants to punish us!"

Rong Qingqing held Tuantuan's hand and rolled her eyes at Ji Siyue: "What are you afraid of? It's not just your fault!"

Bai Zhi arrived at Jingxin Hall and immediately knelt down and said, "Something big happened yesterday. Madam, please ask the old lady to come over."

After hearing this, the old lady believed that if it wasn't a really serious matter, Shen Yiran wouldn't make such a fuss, so she supported Qiuju and left.

On the way, I asked, “What happened?”

Bai Zhi lowered her head and said, "Yesterday, the two young ladies went to the princess's mansion for a banquet and knocked the princess off the boat into the lake. Today, they went to apologize and found out that the princess was sick and had been sent to the palace."

When the old lady heard this and saw that this road was heading towards Songfeng Tower, she had a guess in her mind and stopped asking questions and just walked on.

When Shen Yiran saw the old lady coming, he was about to greet her, but Rong Qingqing got there first and helped the old lady sit at the top.

"Ran Ran, what's going on?"

Shen Yiran looked at Tuantuan who was biting his lips timidly and said, "That depends on what Tuantuan did yesterday."

When Tuantuan heard this, he immediately covered his face and cried, "I didn't do anything yesterday. If Madam wants to put everything on me, Tuantuan can't do anything."

Ji Siyue stood up and said, "Mother, yesterday Tuan Tuan and I were walking in the boat and accidentally knocked the princess over."

Shen Yiran sneered: "Although I am willing to believe it, others don't believe it!"

Tuantuan took his hand down after hearing this and said, "I guess Li Chengxing deliberately said something wrong in order to protect Sister Yue, and he wants to put the blame on me, right?"

Ji Siyue immediately said anxiously after hearing this: "Sister Xing didn't say anything, Tuantuan, don't misunderstand her!"

Tuantuan snorted coldly and said, "She didn't say anything? I clearly saw her and Yu Jiufang talking to each other in the room for a long time!"

Rong Qingqing realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately protected Tuantuan and cried, "Shen Yiran, you wanted to frame my Tuantuan just to protect Ji Siyue. You are so abominable!"

The old lady knocked the dragon's head crutch and shouted: "Be quiet and talk about the matter!"

Rong Qingqing was unable to perform and could only glare at Shen Yiran and Ji Siyue fiercely.

Shen Yiran had expected this to happen, so he said, "Old Madam, regardless of what the matter is, we must first handle the relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion."

The old lady nodded and said, "That's right. Come here, prepare my invitation. I want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person!"

The prime minister's wife welcomed the old lady into the house, very politely.

After the guests were seated, the old lady did not beat around the bush and said directly: "I am also here because of what happened yesterday. There is a huge quarrel in the mansion now, and I want to ask the young lady."

The prime minister's wife heard what Yu Jiufang had said, and after hearing this, she said tactfully: "My Jiufang was frightened yesterday and is resting. When she is better, I will ask her to visit you in person."

The old lady knew that the prime minister's wife was unwilling to help and would not give her face, so she could only smile and say, "This matter was caused by my two children. I apologize for scaring the young lady."

When the prime minister's wife heard this, she immediately stood up and said with a smile, "You can't do this, old lady. It's hard for us to say anything if you do this."

Yu Jiufang had been listening behind the screen for a long time, and now he came out and said, "Old Lady, you are too serious. What happened yesterday was not only seen by me, but also by many girls."

"The truth will come out sooner or later, mother, just let me tell it."

After hearing this, the prime minister's wife felt it was not right to disrespect the old lady, so she had to nod.

Yu Jiufang said: "I saw with my own eyes that Ji Siyue and Bo Shuyi were not close to each other at that time, but Bo Shuyi shouted at Ji Siyue not to squeeze her, and then she fell down and stretched out her hands to push Princess Xiping down from behind."

The old lady's face turned pale when she heard this, but she couldn't get angry here. She felt very guilty and apologized again: "My mansion is poorly taught, and it has caused trouble for everyone in the mansion. I will take care of it, don't worry!"

Feeling embarrassed to sit any longer, he stood up and left.

Yu Jiufang immediately said, "I think this matter is about to spread, please deal with it as soon as possible."

The old lady nodded and thanked him, "You are a good girl, worthy of being the princess's companion."

The prime minister's wife's face lit up, and she softened her tone and said, "If you need help, just let me know."

The old lady returned to the mansion and went straight to the Songfeng Tower.

Shen Yiran and Ji Siyue did not leave, they were still waiting.

He watched the old lady come in, without saying a word, just sitting there.

Rong Qingqing went out to greet him and said, "Tuantuan is right. Everything Yu Jiufang knows is said by Li Chengxing. It may not be true!"

The old lady sat down, her face flushed with anger, and she pointed at Tuantuan, panting: "Bo Shuyi, kneel down!"

Tuantuan didn't dare to do so and hid behind Rong Qingqing, crying, "Mother, this is none of my business!"

Shen Yiran stood up and advised: "Old lady, don't be angry, take care of yourself."

The old lady said in a muffled voice: "Today I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion and lost my face! I begged him. If it weren't for Yu Jiufang's reminder, the Marquis' Mansion would be doomed! Bo Shuyi, don't you admit what you did?"

Tuantuan realized the seriousness of the matter and refused to say anything, only attacking Ji Siyue.

Shen Yiran asked, "What did the old lady find out this time?"

The old lady took a deep breath and said in great disappointment, "Yu Jiufang told me that most of the people on the boat saw Tuan Tuan deliberately pushing Princess Xiping off the boat, and he reminded me that if I didn't deal with it, the news would spread!"

Rong Qingqing was so frightened that her face turned pale. She pulled Tuan Tuan out from behind her and asked, "Did you really do this?"

Tuantuan turned his face away and cried, "It's not me, I didn't do anything!"

Shen Yiran had expected things to develop like this, and he also knew that Tuantuan would never admit it. Since the matter was destined to become a big deal, he could only let it get bigger.

She did not explain, nor did she stop Ji Siyue from speaking, just waiting for the old lady's decision.

The old lady snorted angrily and slammed her hand on the table: "You still don't admit it, don't you know how to repent?"

Tuan Tuan pulled Rong Qingqing to her knees while crying and said, "Yu Jiufang must have wanted to get rid of his relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion after hearing Li Chengxing's lies, so he deliberately spread lies to other girls. I can't explain myself even if I jump into the Yellow River! Just use me to take the blame!"

Shen Yiran just smiled faintly when he heard this: "Yuer, you are in the Forbidden Army camp every day. I didn't expect that these girls, although they are not familiar with you, would favor you. You are really likable!"

This remark touched Tuan Tuan's lungs and he immediately said, "Although my sister has never been out and about, she knows how to give gifts. Since she is grateful to someone, she will naturally be favored. Unlike me, I didn't prepare anything, and now I can only suffer this great loss."
