What happened in Chapter Seven
The sky is slightly bright, birds are singing melodiously, mountains and forests are lush and green, the air is fresh and clean.
A good night's sleep, and I wake up to the birds' singing in a clear sky.
The maid brought a basin of water to wait on Yun Qing, and after she had finished washing her hair, she helped Yun Qing braid the long hair that reached down to her waist, securing it with hairpins, leaving a strand hanging down by her temples, looking both elegant and refined.
"Miss, you're awake, have some millet porridge." As soon as the door opened in the morning, she saw chicken, duck, fish and meat at the entrance, which scared her.
"Screen, wait a moment and boil some water, I want to take a bath, no need to save today." Yun Qing glanced at the outside of the house. Yesterday, in order to save water, she didn't even wash properly, and last night she got covered in dust again, since there was free labor delivered to her doorstep, might as well not waste it.
Thinking of Yun Qian's gaze, Yun Qing's heart felt a bit stuffy, with surprise and tenderness inside, just like looking at her beloved treasure. Who was he, appearing here not by chance, leaving behind guards to protect them? But she was certain that the previous Murong Yunqing did not recognize this person in her memories. What was his purpose? Humph, a sharp glint flashed across Yun Qing's eyes, no matter what his purpose was, as long as he dared to harm Ao Chen, she would never let him off.
"Yes, miss, I understand." The curtain smiled with a pursed mouth, she would definitely help the miss make good use of things. She hadn't forgotten that one "point" of hatred from last night.
The mysterious wind hidden in the trees suddenly felt a gust of cold air blowing by, looked up at the sky, and today was calm and peaceful.
……
At the same time, the General's Mansion
The second lady sat upright in the upper seat, with the eldest sister Murong Yunyao sitting on one side and the third sister Murong Yunshui on the other, one wearing light yellow and the other pale green.
"Mother, you look radiant and beautiful today, I'm sure Father will be captivated by you when he returns," said the eldest miss Mu Rong Yun Yao, dressed in yellow clothes with a joyful expression. "Moreover, Mother, that cheap woman has already been kicked out of the Wang Fu by the Third Prince, so our chance has arrived."
"Yes, Mother, Father will be back today. Although Mother didn't let that little wretch in yesterday, when Father returns and finds out about her, relying on his doting love for her, he'll definitely send someone to bring her back." The third young lady, Mu Rong Yunxiang, dressed in green, spoke softly, but the flash of sharp light in her eyes went unnoticed.
"Third sister is worrying too much, this time it's that little scoundrel who's asking for death herself, actually doing something so shameless, even Father can't say anything." Eldest Miss Murong Yunyao said with a tone of disgust.
"Big sister, after all, that cheap person has won Father's favor." The third young lady said cleverly.
"Don't worry, even if the old master comes back, she won't be coming back." The second mistress's eyes flashed with a fierce light, that servant girl is probably gone for good, taking her illegitimate son with her, and even if the old master asks about it, there will be no evidence to find.
。
"Second Mistress is not well, Second Mistress is not well." Steward Chen Bo hastily rushed in.
"What a flustered appearance you have at such an early hour! I, the second lady, am sitting here calmly." The second lady flew into a rage.
Chen Bo wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Second Mistress, something terrible has happened. As soon as Master arrived in the capital, he was arrested by imperial decree and thrown into the Heavenly Prison."
"What?"
"What?"
"What?"
Three cries of surprise rang out at the same time, and the second lady was shocked and lost her color. "How could this be? What's going on?"
"The little one just went out to ask around, it seems to be related to disaster relief, the specific situation is not clear yet." Chen Baoguang replied respectfully.
"Go and find out quickly!" The second lady was already in a state of great confusion and distraction.
"Yes, Second Mistress." The butler Chen Bo bowed and retreated.
The two women sat down on a chair with a thud, their eyes lifeless, it's all over.
Murong Yunyao and Murong Yunshui were also terrified, grabbing the second wife's hand with urgency in their eyes. "Mother, what should we do now? Father won't be in trouble, will he?" Murong Yunyao shook the second wife's hand, "Mother, why would Father be locked up? What should we do now? Will something happen to the General's Manor?"
"Mother, elder sister, the steward has gone to investigate, let's not panic for now." Murong Yunshui said with forced calmness, but her eyes couldn't hide her surprise.
……
Empress Dowager's Bedroom Fengning Palace
The Empress Dowager Qin Lan sat upright in her high position, over 40 years old, wearing a dark red embroidered dress with phoenix patterns, her raven-black hair styled in a high bun adorned with golden phoenix hairpins and pearl earrings, exuding an air of nobility. Around her neck was a jade and pearl necklace, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, hinting at the elegance of her youth. Her eyes hid a hint of anger, like the ominous signs of an impending storm, as she gazed at the people below: "Which one of you will tell me what has happened?"
