"I don't hide the matter from the Prime Minister until now. The child is now with Prince Luye's mother. In fact, he was brought up under the care of a certain lady. The Prime Minister should be happy."

Sima Lian's original doubts and concerns were reduced by the excitement when he saw this jade pendant.

Now after hearing Princess Chaoyang's words, those doubts have completely disappeared.

"Can the princess please speak to the lady and thank her for taking care of the child for so many years. Sima Lian dare not forget her great kindness and will definitely repay Madam's kindness in the future."

Seeing Sima Lian's attitude, Princess Chaoyang nodded with satisfaction.

"Any lady would be very pleased to see Prime Minister Sima like this."

Sima Lian stood up and bowed to Princess Chaoyang, "Not only the lady, but without the princess and the prince, I might not be able to find my son in this life. I don't dare to forget the kindness of the prince and the princess."

……

Seeing Sima Lian sitting in front of the desk since Princess Chaoyang left, the entourage was a little worried.

"Sir, it's daybreak. You'll have a rest today. If you're not weak, take some rest first."

Sima Lian came back to his senses. After two days of tense nerves, he completely relaxed and felt a little tired.

"Well, go get ready."

The attendants felt relieved when they saw that Sima Lian had no objection.

Their master is quite old. If he endures it any longer, his body and bones may not be able to bear it.

What Sima Lian didn't know was that when he went to rest, Mrs. Sima in the backyard was furious.

"Is what you said true?"

Madam Sima looked gloomily at the maid kneeling on the ground. The broken porcelain on the floor showed her anger over this matter.

"My slave is telling the truth, and I will never deceive the madam. Last night, I was keeping vigil. When I entered the house for the second time, I saw Princess Chaoyang. However, it was the concierge Li who led Princess Chaoyang into the house, so I didn't dare to do so. He rashly stepped forward to stop it."

Madam Sima looked at the servant who was kneeling on the floor with gloomy eyes, "Go and find Concierge Li and tell her that I have something to ask her."

How dare the servants hesitate?He responded and hurried to find someone.

As soon as concierge Li entered the yard, his heart skipped a beat when he saw the situation inside the house.

However, he didn't dare to ask any more questions and stepped forward respectfully to salute after entering the courtyard.

"Old slave, I would like to pay my respects to Madam. I wonder why Madam asked me to come to you?"

Mrs. Sima snorted coldly. Knowing that this person was someone close to Sima Lian, she naturally didn't have a good face.

"Concierge Li, how long have you been here at Sima Mansion?"

Concierge Li didn't know what Mrs. Sima wanted, but he still answered honestly.

"The old slave came into the house in the same year that the woman entered the house. In order to let the woman manage the back house easily, the master asked the old slave to help the wife."

Mrs. Sima watched the servants clean up the broken porcelain in the house and put on a new tea set, and then she picked up the tea cup.

"Really? Why don't I think you helped me?"

"lady……"

Mrs. Sima's words made Concierge Li feel a little panicked, but for a moment he couldn't think of anything that offended Mrs. Sima, so he could only lower his head and wait for the reprimand.

"Since the master asked you to come into the house to help me, then you must not be able to hide things in the house from me."

Mrs. Sima did not want to waste time on Concierge Li, and her purpose was not on Concierge Li.

After all, Concierge Li is a servant of the Sima Mansion, and what she wants to do is take up time.

But not Princess Chaoyang. She is not only the princess, but now also the concubine of the Eighth Prince's Palace.

I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with that person.

She had heard about Princess Chaoyang's previous reputation and deeds in the capital, but she never expected that bitch to hook up with her master.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Sima's face became a little gloomier.

"Yes, this old slave will definitely tell Madam everything she knows."

Mrs. Sima raised her eyelids and then put down the tea cup.

"Let me ask you, did Princess Chaoyang come to the mansion last night?"

When concierge Li heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He wanted to deny it, but if Mrs. Sima asked such a question, she must have already known about it. He was afraid that denying it at this time would be in vain.

"Back to Madam, Princess Chaoyang did come to the house last night."

"Really? Why did she come and why did she leave?"

"Come at the third watch and leave at the fourth watch."

Mrs. Sima couldn't help but narrowed her eyes. There were so many things that could be done during this time.

"Why did Princess Chaoyang come to see you?"

"I don't know, I didn't ask anyone to guard her outside. I took Princess Chaoyang to the study and then went back."

After hearing that concierge Li did not hide anything, Mrs. Sima's face looked a little better.

"In that case, you can go back first."

After Concierge Li exited Mrs. Sima's yard, he realized that his back was soaked with sweat.

However, he did not dare to stay any longer and turned around and headed towards Sima Lian's bedroom.

"Sir, it's not good."

The boy guarding outside Sima Lian's room couldn't help but frowned when he saw Porter Li in a hurry.

"Why are you in such a panic? The master has just fallen asleep, so don't disturb him."

Hearing this, concierge Li felt so miserable that he couldn't express his feelings.

"Oh, little brother Zhao, something happened, something big happened."

Concierge Li is not that ignorant. It is obvious that he has something important to do.

But thinking that Sima Lian was still resting in the room, the boy hesitated a little, wondering whether he should go to Tongbing.

Seeing the boy's hesitation, concierge Li didn't care about anything else, so he stepped forward and whispered a few words in the boy's ear.

The boy's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly became silent.

"Just wait here for a moment. I'll call you Master."

……

At this time, in the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Princess Chaoyang's face was ashen.

"They haven't left yet?"

"Back to the princess, those people are Mrs. Sima's people, we can't do anything to them at all."

The boy who replied looked bitter. No one expected that Mrs. Sima would actually let people make a fuss at the gate of the Eighth Prince's Mansion this morning.

He asked loudly at the door, Princess Chaoyang is already married, why does she still go out to hook up with someone in the middle of the night?

If it had been anyone else, they would have beaten him out long ago.

But this Sima Lian's stepwife was the legitimate daughter of the current imperial master.

Even if they were from Princess Chaoyang, they would not dare to attack their subordinates.

"Princess, there are more and more people surrounding the door, what should we do?"

They wanted to close the door, but once the door was closed, they would admit that Princess Chaoyang went out to seduce people in the middle of the night.

But if you don't care, those people will make trouble to no end, and they won't be able to resist it.

Princess Chaoyang tightened her hand on the handkerchief and stared at the branches outside the courtyard with some hatred.
