First Lady sighed deeply, "I was the one who created this mess too deeply."

"Madame." Zhou mama held her hand tightly and comforted her, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Eldest Miss and Auntie Xiao have already shed all pretense of cordiality, even though Eldest Miss has been wronged and won by a small margin. Today, Servant heard the discussions of the lords. If the relatives of the Auntie Xiao brothers were to defeat the people from Liao City, it meant that they would be a meritorious general of the imperial court, and the Emperor would also take a liking to them. The Old Master and the Old Madame would be worried about the relationship, so the Auntie Xiao was not easy to deal with.

Eldest Miss alone is definitely not enough, you have to pull yourself together, consider this young master as your own, and rot this secret in your stomach, and never bring it up again. Otherwise, Eldest Miss and Young Master's future will be ruined, and there will no longer be a place for you in this house. "

Zhou mama's words seemed to be filled with wisdom, causing his to break out in a cold sweat. She said anxiously, "You're right, I can't let myself get lost, or else I'll harm the two children."

Previous Chapter Next Chapter "Boom!" Just then, a bolt of lightning flashed outside the window, followed by a sudden clap of thunder, followed by a downpour of rain. First Lady looked out the window and said —

"It's raining. This is the first rain in over a month."

"That's right, the rain is really heavy. It's as if the sky is going to collapse." Zhou mama went over to the window and pulled it shut. Suddenly, he saw a black shadow flash past and she lowered his voice and asked anxiously, "Who is it?"

First Lady's heart suddenly skipped a beat, she hurriedly got down from the bed and grabbed onto Zhou mama's hands, and asked, "Is there anyone eavesdropping? Who? Did you see it clearly? "

"Servant, go take a look!" Zhou mama quickly took the lantern and walked towards the door.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou mama finally returned. Her hair was also wet, and his skirt was dripping with water.

"How is it? Do you see him? " First Lady suddenly stood up, his hand clenched into a fist, the handkerchief in his hand was almost shattered by her.

Zhou mama shook his head and said, "Servant went around in a circle and didn't find anything."

"It's over, it's all over." First Lady took two steps back and muttered, "This is it."

"Perhaps... Maybe Servant was just seeing things, but there was nothing. Or perhaps, it's just a stray cat. " Zhou mama held onto First Lady's hand tightly, "Madame, let's not scare ourselves."

However, First Lady's heart could not calm down. She did not dare imagine what would happen if this heavenly secret was exposed.

The rain continued to fall harder and harder, and along with the sounds of thunder and lightning, there were still no signs of stopping even when dawn broke. When Lian Si Yue woke up, the rain had still not stopped.

"What's the situation with Qing Quan Yuan Yuan?"

"Auntie Xiao and Third Miss knelt outside Master's study room through the rain for the whole night, but Master still did not open the door. When the sun rose, Auntie Xiao fainted and was carried back by the maids, and Third Miss was still kneeling on the ground. I heard that when Auntie Xiao was being carried back, he was still shouting 'Master', and now, the entire Qing Quan Yuan Yuan was in chaos."

The corner of Lian Si Yue's mouth slightly curled as she let out a light, cold snort, and said, "Bones of flesh and blood, no matter what, I'll go take a look at mother's place."

"Yes."

After half a quarter of an hour, Several maidservants and her wife supported themselves with an umbrella and went out of the room with Lian Si Yue. When they were standing at the entrance of the Purple Cloud Academy, Lian Si Yue raised her head and looked at the sky, it was dark and overcast, the rain was a little smaller, but it was still pitter-patter down. There were many fallen leaves and fallen flowers by the side of the road.

She was dressed in a moon-white hibiscus dress and a rose-red rat skin cloak. Her hair was tied up in a bun with a beaded gold hairpin, and the drooping tassels swayed gently with her footsteps, looking very charming and charming.

When she passed by that long corridor, the expressions of the people on the road who met her had subtly changed. They were surprised to discover that this Eldest Miss's posture was elegant and noble.

Lian Si Yue was naturally aware of these changes, but she remained calm and collected, walking step by step past the crowd as the corners of her elegant skirt curled up with a faint mist.

"Eldest Miss, we should go this way to Madame." Jiang Xiang sensed that Lian Si Yue was heading in the wrong direction, and immediately reminded him.

However, Lian Si Yue did not change her direction, and continued to walk, and said: "I suddenly remembered that there is an autumn sunflower tree here, let's go and see if it has blossomed."

Jiang Xiang was suspicious, but Qing Dai pushed her waist lightly, when she raised her head, she saw a person kneeling in the rain far away, and immediately understood.

Lian Shi Ya had already knelt on the stone path in front of Lian Yan Qing's study room for the entire night, and soaked herself in the rain. At this moment, her entire body was soaked by the rain. The luxurious clothes stuck close to her skin, her wet hair stuck messily to her face. Her eyes could not be opened by the rain, and her mouth opened slightly to choke on the rain.

Although she was a concubinage, but because of her meticulous management of the Auntie Xiao all these years, the Prime Minister had a special preference towards her, and the treatment she received was not worse than the direct daughter, Lian Si Yue. She was also respected by the servants in the Prime Minister's Palace, and had even surpassed Lian Si Yue's position in the hearts of the people.

Several times she wanted to get up and leave without a word, because she couldn't stand the looks of the people around her.

However, Auntie Xiao had told her before that if she wanted her father's forgiveness and to regain her love, she would have to kneel here the entire time.

Just as she was frowning and impatiently rubbing her knee that was in so much pain that she had lost consciousness, an umbrella suddenly appeared above her head. She was delighted.

"Father!"

However, when she suddenly turned around, what entered her sight was the face she hated the most — —

"Eldest young mistress …" The corner of her mouth twitched. Her pleasantly surprised smile froze on her face as she reluctantly shouted out.

"Third Sister..." Lian Si Yue walked in front of her and looked down at her with a smile. She then untied the belt in front of her chest and handed the cape to her and said, "I just happened to pass by and saw you kneeling here, so I came over to take a look. Look at you, after kneeling for an entire night, your entire body is drenched. If you continue to be drenched in the rain like this, your body won't be able to take it.
