Nanny Qi stared at her coldly. Only then did Zishu feel vaguely that her impulsiveness just now was really stupid.

She lowered her head guiltily.

Madam Qi then spoke coldly: "My son-in-law is the prince's father-in-law, so we should not give him face, but the Buddha's. Besides, this is a marriage granted by His Majesty. Even if he is not happy, he is just making a fuss to vent his anger.

Is it such a small matter that you have to trespass into the old lady's yard without caring about anything?"

Zishu frowned, feeling like something was wrong.

She explained hurriedly, "Mammy, this time is different. Prince Yan will not let it go. He, he has the leverage over the son-in-law and the young lady this time, and he keeps saying that he wants to kick the young lady out of the family tree and abolish her status as a legitimate daughter. I, I am too impatient..."

"Prince Yan has just woken up. What can he hold against me? He just doesn't like Miss Qingran and listened to the instigation of others. He doesn't like the princess who is celebrating the wedding, so he just found a random reason and planned to make a scene."

That day, Miss Qingran got married in a grand ceremony with a red wedding dress that was ten miles long.

With the addition of the ladies in the palace and His Majesty, the style of her wedding was almost as good as that of a daughter from a Duke's mansion getting married.

Prince Yan was badly injured.

He can marry a princess and wake up again. What else could he be dissatisfied with?

Aunt Qi thought indifferently.

She had been ill for the past few days and had not paid much attention to outside affairs. In addition, Qi Heng had long been intentional not to let outside affairs disturb the old lady, so many of the previous news would not be passed here most of the time.

Therefore, she didn't know about a series of events, such as Lin Qingran's escape from marriage, Qi Heng's house arrest for reflection, Lin Huaian's demotion, and Qi's deprivation of imperial edict.

I just feel that Zishu is shouting here now because he has little experience.

What a fuss!

Zishu was stunned when he heard what Nanny Qi said.

She finally knew what the problem was.

"Mammy, that's not the case. Prince Yan is here because..."

"Well, what else could it be?

Miss Qingran is a little spoiled, but she has good intentions.

Your Majesty may not like it now, but he will slowly like it over time.

As a young couple, you need to slowly adjust and adapt to each other.

Besides, even if my son-in-law's family did something wrong, there is still the Marquis and our Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. The Prince of Yan is not favored. He is a general in the south and his influence is all in the south.

He didn't even have a place to stand in the court.

His son-in-law is his father-in-law, a powerful man, and the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites. Even if Prince Yan wants to do something to the Lin family and the young ladies, he has to see whether the Marquis and his son-in-law agree.

Besides, there are the Queen and His Highness in the palace."

Nanny Qi had a confident look on her face, and she didn't think that Prince Yan's Mansion could do anything else to the Lin family.

The aristocratic mansions in the capital of Song are intricately connected.

Prince Yan, who is disliked by his biological mother, unloved by his biological father, and whose maternal grandfather's family all focuses on his eldest brother, is just a foil.

Apart from being able to play some role on the battlefield in the south, it has some capabilities.

Who in this whole capital city dares to offend?

Zi Shu was choked and his face looked extremely ugly.

Looking at the sky outside, she didn't care about anything else. She thought that no matter how much she said, the nanny wouldn't listen. She gritted her teeth and said in one sentence, pointing out the key to the whole matter: "The one that Prince Yan married into the palace was not the second young lady."

Aunt Qi was choked.

She lowered her eyes suddenly and looked at Zishu in astonishment. The other servants were also a little stunned. But behind them, an old but oppressive voice suddenly sounded: "What did you say just now?"

Everyone turned around quickly to look.

If the person who spoke was not Old Madam Qi, who else could it be?

Her pair of eyes, which had been covered with dust, now flashed with a sharp coldness, shooting straight at Zishu.

Everyone subconsciously made way for a small path.

The servant who was holding Zishu loosened his grip and became a little nervous, not knowing whether to continue holding Zishu.

Zishu suddenly broke free, staggered to Old Madam Qi, knelt on the ground with a thud, and cried, "Old Madam, please go to the Lin family quickly. The son-in-law wants to kick the young lady out of the family tree and abolish her status as a legitimate daughter."

Madam Qi's face changed.

"What exactly happened? Please tell me in detail." At this moment, Madam Qi looked relatively calm, but the movement of fiddling with the beads on her wrist became faster and faster.

"Madam, the young lady ran away from her marriage the day before the wedding. The son-in-law and the young lady searched for her all night but couldn't find her. Seeing that the bridal sedan was about to arrive, they decided to find someone to take the young lady's place. But you know the Lin family. There is no girl of the same age in the Lin family. There is only one in the courtyard, who was born to Shen and raised in the countryside... The young lady saw that the situation was not right, so she called me back in advance and asked you to go there in person. Perhaps, only you can stop this."

Zishu explained everything that had happened in the past few days in just a few words.

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi felt dizzy before her eyes.

She never thought that things would turn out like this. Wouldn't it become a joke that she happily married her "own granddaughter" that day?

Nanny Qi had never expected that things would become so serious.

If she had known this, she would not have stopped him.

At this moment, there is no point in saying anything.

Madam Qi could no longer care about anything else and immediately asked people to prepare: "Get ready, go to the Lin family immediately. I want to see how capable this Prince Yan is."

She snorted coldly, not taking He Qingchen seriously at all.

After hearing her words, Zishu felt relieved and she could no longer kneel. She forced herself not to move, and her forehead was covered in cold sweat.

The old lady glanced at her and said nothing: "Madame Qi, come back to my room with me to change clothes."

Nanny Qi lowered her head, hurriedly followed, and helped her into the house.

As soon as the two turned around, Zishu let out a sigh of relief. She knelt on the ground, with a look of temporary relief and joy on her face.

Old Madam Qi took two steps, remembered something, turned around, and Zishu quickly stood up.

The old lady looked at her coldly, but didn't care about her loss of composure. She just said, "Don't kneel anymore. Get up. Later, on the way, you can tell me in detail all the things that happened in the past few days. Remember, no matter how big or small, you must not miss a single thing. If you can't remember, start thinking about it now."

The old lady's voice was extremely cold, and she went back to the house after she finished speaking.

When Zishu saw that she didn't look back, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the servants outside the yard.

About two quarters of an hour later.

The two carriages of the Qi Mansion hurried out of the mansion. Old Madam Qi, Madam Qi, and Zishu, who was specifically named, were serving in the front carriage. Following behind were the other servants who usually served the old madam.

It was the first time that Zishu served Madam Qi closely.

At this moment, she didn't care about what to think. At the old lady's instruction, she explained to the old lady everything she knew about the past few days in detail.

The steward of Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion saw them off at the door.

As the carriage drove away, the smile on his face immediately disappeared. Without waiting for the servants to ask him anything, he turned around and hurried to Qi Heng's yard.

In the study room in the main courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion.

Qi Heng is practicing calligraphy.

The butler came hurriedly and said as soon as he entered the door: "My Lord, something has happened."

Qi Heng had not yet put down his next stroke when he heard the sound. His hand suddenly stopped and a drop of black ink suddenly fell on the paper, leaving a small black mark.

Such a good piece of calligraphy was ruined just like that.

He looked at the housekeeper suddenly, his eyes were unhappy, but he still asked calmly: "What's the matter?"

"A maidservant named Zishu from the second young lady's side broke into the old lady's yard today. I don't know what she said. After that, the old lady took Madam Qi and a group of servants, changed into formal clothes, and hurried out of the house."
