After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

The maids guarding the door on both sides opened the curtains. Xiang Ming bent down slightly and just as she entered, she saw Xiu Yu standing in front of the couch with her index finger on her lips, making a "shut up" gesture to her.

She followed Xiu Yu's line of sight and looked at the couch, only to see Old Madam Zhu half-leaning on the couch with an extremely delicate huanghuali stone-inlaid lotus leaf-foot screen in front of her. She was sleeping with her eyes closed.

Xiu Yu walked forward quickly, held her hand, walked around the door, and whispered, "Since we changed rooms, the old lady didn't take a nap, and she just closed her eyes. Is there any news?"

Xiang Ming whispered, "That's right. I was just thinking of asking the old lady for instructions." She looked around the room and asked, "Where are the Madam and the old lady of the Luo family? Why are they not here now?"

Xiu Yu turned her head to look at Madam Zhu, and seeing that she was still sleeping soundly, she leaned over to Xiang Ming's ear and said, "The eldest lady was feeling sleepy, so the old lady asked us to prepare another room for her in the courtyard. Madam is resting in there with Miss Yao. Madam Luo also went to bed, but Ying went out first, and we haven't seen her yet."

She asked with concern: "What's going on in Jinhua Lane? Have the Liu family members arrived?"

Xiang Ming said, "We've brought the people here. It's Madam Liu's eldest son. He insisted that he hadn't seen his mother since Madam Liu left the house that day. When he saw our people, he even shouted that he wanted to go to the Marquis' Mansion to look for her."

Xiu Yu hurriedly said, "So cunning? It shows that these small families are the hardest to mess with."

The two maids walked to the corridor together. Xiang Ming said, "It's getting late. Does the old lady want to keep the old lady of the Luo family in the mansion?"

Xiu Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Who can say for sure? Miss Yao is clamoring to stay and accompany the Marquis, but the Madam's face is not looking good. The old lady is caught in the middle, and it is neither yes nor no. Let's just wait and see."

Xiang Ming pulled her to sit in the corridor and said with a smile: "We are all family members. Even if there are some disputes, can we really care about it? We are servants, and we only have two ears to serve."

Xiu Yu said, "That's true, but if the masters really quarrel, won't we be the ones who suffer in the end? No one will be in trouble if they are involved in today's incident, unless... the Marquis can come forward to mediate."

It would be fine if she didn't mention the Marquis. As soon as she mentioned the Marquis, Xiang Ming's eyes flashed with the carpet soaked with medicine stains. She sighed and said, "Don't mention it. The Marquis was very angry today. He pointed at my nose and scolded me, telling me to 'get out'. I didn't know what to do. Now, I think no one should offend him."

Xiu Yu was surprised: "Is there such a thing?" She didn't quite believe it. Everyone in the Marquis's mansion knew that Xiang Ming was favored. In all these years, she had never been scolded. If the Marquis scolded her, he must be really angry.

Xiang Ming smiled helplessly: "How can I lie to you about this? So don't count on the Marquis, just wait and see what the old lady says."

Now it was Xiuyu's turn to worry: "The son of the Liu family doesn't sound honest. What if he talks nonsense in front of the two old ladies and says something unmanageable? What should we do?" She pushed Xiangming: "How about asking a man to come over?"

Xiang Ming was also a little moved: "Sister, do you mean to ask the second master to come over?"

Xiu Yu nodded and said, "That's right. The Second Master is in charge of the affairs of the outer courtyard. The Marquis is ill, and he is the only master left in the mansion. Who else can we rely on? In front of the Second Master, I think the old lady of the Luo family would have some concerns."

Xiang Ming said, "In that case, I will go look for the Second Master myself while the old lady is still asleep. I'll leave the old lady's side to you, sister."

----

Xiang Ming had worked under Shen Chongyan for many years and had developed a decisive personality. She and Xiu Yu agreed to first comfort Liu Kui's eldest son and then go straight to find Shen Chongyao.

"Feixing?" More than ten steps away, she saw Shen Chongyao's trusted servant standing guard at the gate: "Why are you here? Where is your second master?"

When Fei Xing turned around, he saw Sister Xiang Ming coming towards him. He hurried forward and said respectfully, "Sister Xiang Ming is here. Are you looking for our master?"

Xiang Ming said, "That's right." She said vaguely, "Regarding the matter with the old lady, we need to ask the second master to make a decision together."

Unexpectedly, Feixing showed an embarrassment. He turned his head and looked into the courtyard, and whispered, "But right now, the master is receiving distinguished guests, and he specifically told me not to disturb them."

Xiang Ming heard this and hesitated for a moment, then said, "I am sorry for being rude. But I wonder if Feixing could help me and ask the Second Master when he is free."

Fei Xing looked at Xiang Ming and said, "You are too polite, sister. Please wait a moment. I will go in and ask. But I cannot guarantee the result."

Xiang Ming hurriedly thanked him, "Of course."

Fei Xing walked towards the small flower hall where Shen Chongyao and Lu Kui were meeting, only to see the doors were closed and no one in the corridor, which made people hold their breath and keep quiet unconsciously.

He did not dare to push the door open rashly. He only coughed twice at the door and raised his voice slightly: "Master, I, Feixing, want to see you."

The original whispers in the hall quieted down the moment he opened his mouth. After a few breaths, he heard Shen Chongyao's voice: "Come in alone."

Feixing hurriedly walked in, kneeling down and kowtowed: "Greetings to the master, sir."

Shen Chongyao said, "Get up, tell me, what's the urgent matter?"

Feixing stood up and answered, but he was surprised when he looked up.

The man in the red robe with an exceptionally outstanding appearance was sitting on the left hand side of the second master. On his left hand side, there was a very young, slender and graceful girl, who turned out to be Miss Ning!

His gaze lingered on her for a few more seconds, and the lord's icy eyes swept over Fei Xing. He immediately did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly put on a serious face and said everything: "Second Master, Miss Xiang Ming came to see you, saying that there was something about the old lady, and invited you to make a decision together."

Shen Chongyao's attention was focused on Ning'er and Lu Kui at this moment. He waved his hand to refuse, but suddenly heard Miss Ning say, "Wait."

She looked up at Shen Chongyao and said, "Second Master, please go and take a look. Who knows, it might be something about Aunt Liu?"

Shen Chongyao reacted immediately: "Feixing, go and invite Xiang Ming in."

Lu Kui said, "Miss Ning is right. You are here to look for Brother Yishan now, probably because of Liu Kui's matter. When you get there, pay attention and watch carefully."

Shen Chongyao hesitated and said, "Then I'll go over there, how about Brother Lu and the girl?"

Lu Kui smiled, "Master Shen, are you worried that I'm neglecting the girl?"

"Second Master, I'll leave that to you." Ning'er said, "It just so happens that Master Xunlu has something else to do."
