The old lady's actions were quick, she said that she wanted to investigate this matter thoroughly, so she immediately sent the nanny beside her and a few clever servants to investigate.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was still stagnant and was not as lively as before, Aunt Li immediately smiled and tried to smooth things over, bringing the topic to the side.

The madame had already sent people to investigate the matter of the Buddha statue's tears of blood. She was the one who had raised the spirits of the crowd, proving her social skills in front of the madame.

With Aunt Li doing her best to smooth things over and lift the atmosphere, the ladies in the hall all gave him face. After saying a few words of praise and blessings, the old mistress' expression finally became clear.

As for whether she was truly happy or not, no one cared whether the other madams and mistresses had any other thoughts.

After an hour, the tea in the hall had been changed a few times, and half of the various fruits and pastries had been eaten as well. The person who had been sent to investigate had finally returned.

The nanny was the Old Mistress' trusted aide. When he was young, he was by her side, a person who understood the situation.

She quickly walked to the old mistress' side and bowed to report the results of her investigation to the mistress in a low voice.

"This old servant will bring the maidservants … "That person said …"

Aunt Li pretended to be listening intently, but she could only faintly hear one sentence.

She still wanted to listen to a few more words, but the nanny's voice was too low and the hall was too noisy, making it difficult for her to hear anything.

Aunt Li sighed in disappointment. When she raised her head, he met An Lingge's bright and deep eyes.

An Lingge sat upright on a chair, her expression did not contain even the slightest of panic or helplessness, but instead carried a sense of certainty, as if she could ensure that this matter did not involve her.

He didn't know why, but her expression gave Aunt Li a bad premonition. It was as if she had missed something.

Just as she was thinking of this, she saw the madame's expression darken. There was obvious rage in her eyes, and her expression was even uglier than before.

"Before my wife died, there were already people impatiently cursing me."

The old mistress' words were filled with anger, and the hall immediately quietened down. Even if a needle were to land on the floor, it would still be heard clearly.

Seemingly sensing her words that made everyone uncomfortable, the Countess glanced at the Ladies and Ladies present, forcing out a smile. "Kuan Yin's tears appeared on my birthday, which is indeed an ominous matter. Now, the whole story has been investigated, and it turns out that someone intentionally bought that thing to add to my trouble. This kind of family matter is inconvenient for me to let everyone know the details, please forgive me. "

He was tactfully sending off his guests, so how could the ladies not understand the meaning behind his words?

Just as they were about to say their goodbyes, Aunt Li opened his mouth to stop them.

"Has the madame sent someone to investigate?" Yi Er has always been a pure and filial person, you cannot have Xue Guan Yin as a gift. Now that you have sent people to investigate the whole situation, you might as well say it in front of the big guy and let Yi Er have her innocence. "

Her face was full of concern for her daughter, and her demands were not excessive. If the madame was sensible and kind, she would agree to her request.

Not only the Aunt Li was thinking this, even the other madams and mistresses were thinking the same thing.

Although they had been taught to meddle in other people's business, when the hype was brought to them, who wouldn't want to take a look and have a chat with them over the rest of the day?

"Aunt Li is right, I wonder who dares to make such a scene on your birthday. Since you have an idea, you must be punished severely."

"That's right, that's right. Whoever did this was sinister in his heart, and the madame shouldn't hide it for her. Could it be that she's going to leave that person some face?"

The madams kept talking, causing the madame to hesitate.

She looked at the Madam Wang with an aged look, and asked, "What do you guys think?"

After all, this was a family matter and the madame could handle it however she wanted.

However, so many ladies and ladies had seen it. If they did not deal with it in front of them, it was likely that some bad rumors would spread out.

She turned to her husband, and said, "My daughter-in-law thinks that this matter cannot be left unanswered. She might as well reveal the mastermind behind this in front of everyone, otherwise, not to mention you, the madame, even my daughter-in-law would not be willing."

She had just been frightened and almost fell to the ground, so it was reasonable for her to say such words.

The Countess nodded and instructed the nanny beside her, "Bring her along. I want to ask her why she did this."

nanny agreed and quickly walked out.

Not long after, she brought up a person with a head covered. Looking at his clothes, it was a servant girl from the mansion.

Aunt Li was elated, but she revealed a surprised expression. She pointed to the servant girl's clothes and asked curiously: Why is this person wearing the servant girl's clothes in the young miss's courtyard?

The clothes of the servants in the different courtyards within the Prince An's Palace were different. Although she could not tell what they were, but since Aunt Li had governed the Duke Palaces for so many years, she was very familiar with which courtyard's maidservants' clothes.

Seeing the green palace sash around the servant's waist, she knew that the one tied up was someone from An Lingge's courtyard.

Now that the Aunt Li had said that, they directly targeted the young miss, wishing that they could tell everyone that the bleeding Guan Yin was actually An Lingge's doing.

An Lingyi had long discussed with her, upon hearing Aunt Li say that, she immediately replied, "Could it be that Big Sis has sent someone to do something to my wedding gift?"

Although the Guan Yin Statue should have been given out by An Lingge, and had somehow landed in her hands, as long as the person caught was in An Lingge's courtyard, she wouldn't be able to explain herself.

Thinking about it this way, An Lingyi's eyes carried some malice, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see her current happiness.

"The young miss of your estate wouldn't do such a thing, right?"

Zhang Wan Yi's face held a trace of suspicion, and she looked at An Lingyi with a scrutinizing gaze.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with her, but An Lingge had just revealed her skills in Jingdu Academy a few days ago, causing her to have the heart to befriend him, hence she decided to speak up for him.

The old lady looked at her weirdly, as if she was surprised that this young miss of the Shang Shu Manor would actually come forward for An Lingge.

However, she did not directly come to a conclusion, but gave the order for nanny to remove the item on the servant's head.
