"Besides, our princess has done nothing wrong. If you, aunt, continue to smear our princess, please forgive my rudeness!"
Seeing that her expression was not right, the First Madam quickly handed the rag in her hand to Cuiping, signaling her to gag Yangliu.
Yang Liu struggled and cried out as she looked at the rag, "No! Madam, you can't do this to me! No, I'm going to tell the old man..."
Chunhe looked at Yang Liu and nodded in satisfaction, then turned to the First Madam and continued, "Madam, there's a saying that you have to consider the owner before beating a dog. What wrong has this Third Concubine done?"
The First Madam was a little confused when she heard this. What did it have to do with Princess Luoying if she was scolding the Third Concubine?
Thinking this, she smiled and asked, "What do you mean by this, Miss Chunhe?"
Chunhe looked at her and said, "This third concubine was the late Madam's maid. No matter what, the late Madam was from Xifeng and was related to my princess. She was practically my princess's aunt. How can you do this in front of my princess? Isn't that a bit disrespectful to my princess?"
The First Madam understood what she meant this time. She smiled and looked at Chunhe: "Miss Chunhe is right. I didn't think it through. Yan'er, your aunt was also frightened. Quickly help her back and find a doctor to take a look at her."
Sang Yan glanced at Chunhe and then curtsied to the First Madam: "Thank you, Mother."
After saying that, she helped her third aunt turn around and walk back.
She didn't know why Chunhe would help her, but she was certain it wasn't because of what she had just said.
Could it be because of the fourth sister...?
Princess Luoying is the fourth sister's younger sister, so it makes sense if the fourth sister told her about it.
As Chunhe watched the two leave, she curtsied to the First Madam and said, "This servant must return to serve the princess. Please go ahead, Madam."
After saying that, she turned and left. As she walked to the entrance of Yunshuang Courtyard, she said meaningfully, "Keep a close eye on things here. Give me your utmost attention. Anyone who disturbs the princess will be sent away immediately!"
The First Madam's face darkened further upon hearing this. Chunhe was clearly referring to them. She looked at Yang Liu, who was still whimpering to the side, and her expression hardened: "Take her away!"
The First Madam turned and glanced at Sang Rui, who had been following her listlessly, and asked, "Rui'er, what's wrong?"
Sang Rui shook her head: "It's nothing. I've been feeling unwell lately, probably because I caught a cold."
The First Madam took her hand: "Why are your hands so cold? Are you feeling unwell?"
Chunhe, who was about to step inside, stopped in her tracks upon hearing this. As a martial artist, she always had excellent hearing.
Sang Rui looked at her and shook her head: "I don't know either, I just feel like I don't have much of an appetite and I'm very sleepy lately."
The First Madam's heart jumped. Sang Rui was the apple of her eye, and she couldn't bear to see her suffer even the slightest misfortune. She looked at Cui Ping and said, "Go find a doctor for Miss."
Cuiping nodded, curtsied to the two of them, and then turned to find the doctor.
...
At the same time, the Third Madam looked at Sang Yan after the two had walked away and said, "Yan'er, you were too bold today. What if the First Madam really blames you? You should know that your marriage will depend on her in the future."
Sang Yan frowned in dissatisfaction: "I just can't stand her humiliating me like this. I'd rather not get married than let you suffer like this."
The third wife's expression changed, and she quickly looked around. Only when she saw that no one was around did she breathe a sigh of relief...
