All the madams were stunned by Ning Xueyan’s unexpected pleading for Mother Yun. Ning Xueyan was still young, but she
behaved elegantly. They had not known there was such a girl in the Lord Protector’s Manor; they had only heard how gentle and
Looking at the gentle and graceful Ning Xueyan, Madam Dowager Liu felt happy and spoke with a soft smile on her face.
“Xueyan, why did you plead for her? She hurt you and doesn’t respect you. She’s an evil servant.”
“Grandmother, I agree she has to be punished for hurting me, but I think today is important, and it’s not suitable to kill her. She
has been working in the Lord Protector’s Manor for many years. How about asking her to go to the backyard? It seems like
suitable punishment for her negligence as a servant.” Ning Xueyan smiled, but everyone could see that she was in pain.
A murmuring in the crowd surrounding them indicated people were confused by Ning Xueyan’s response. It was clear Madam
Dowager Liu also did not understand, as she asked in puzzlement, “What is she going to do in the backyard?”
Realizing that Ning Xueyan wanted her to keep vigil at the funeral, Mother Yun shouted in horror. She pushed away the women
holding her and cried out, “No! No! I don’t want to keep vigil for Madam Ming! First Madam, I won’t go! I won’t go! The funeral…
Madam Ming…”
After Mother Yun’s outburst, the madams changed their expressions. Ning Xueyan was waiting for this, and she looked down to
The death of Madam Ming was strange. When the original Ning Xueyan was at the funeral, she had smelled something sweet.
After checking the whole building, she found that the fragrance came from the coffin! The source of this fragrance was a kind of
poisonous food . Long-term consumption of it would lead to dizziness and illness, and the fragrance would stay in the body.
The slight, sweet fragrance must have had something to do with Madam Ling. Ning Xueyan’s mother, Madam Ming, had taught
her various methods for making incense, and she knew that that certain varieties of incense could be harmful . Mother Yun was
Madam Ling’s trusted personal servant, so she knew the truth about Madam Ming’s death and was afraid of keeping vigil amidst
Madam Ling rushed over and slapped Mother Yun before she could finish. “You damn servant, what are you talking about?”
But it was too late – everyone in the backyard had heard Mother Yun’s words.
The Second Madam had died in the backyard, but they held a wedding banquet in the front. How could the Lord Protector’s
“Damn servant, what are you talking about? Come on, shut her up and take her away. Beat her to death directly!” Madam Ling
shouted at the two female middle-aged servants in a panic, disregarding the fact that she had just been pleading for Mother
Yun’s life.
On hearing Madam Ling’s vicious response, Mother Yun cried out, “Beat me to death? Madam, I have…” But before she finished
At this point, Madam Dowager glared at Madam Ling, trembling with anger. This matter not only brought shame on the Lord
Protector’s Manor, but also would affect her son’s prestige. Faced with the gaze of the madams, she fainted from shame.
The situation descended into chaos. The doctor who had been called to treat Ning Xueyan’s hand arrived and was asked to
Everyone knew that the Lord Protector’s Manor had done something dishonorable. Originally, when some of the madams heard
that there were other daughters in the Lord Protector’s Manor, they wanted the opportunity to take a look at them; now, none of
them wanted to. It was said that the First Young Lady of the Lord Protector’s Manor was elegant and gentle. But in order to get
married, she’d hid the death of her elder, which showed an extreme lack of propriety!
According to Madam Ling’s guilty look, it was obvious that she already had known. She treated Ning Xueyan badly, allowed her
servants to bully a mistress, and hid the death of Madam Ming, so it made sense that a daughter taught by such a mother was
no good, either.
Madam Dowager Liu stared icily at Madam Ling. She knew someone needed to take charge. “Don’t kill her yet. Take her away,
Ning Zu’an, the Lord Protector, had great respect for his aunt, and her order was obeyed, even though she did not normally take
charge. The two women holding Mother Yun took her away to stop her from saying anything more.
“Young Lady, are you all right?” Ning Xueyan’s maid, Qingyu, ran over to support her. She had been assigned by Madam Ling to
help in the wedding ceremony and couldn’t leave, but had slipped away when the chaos began.
Ning Xueyan leaned against Qingyu and whispered. “Go and see where Mother Yun will be locked up.”
