"Young Lady …" Qingyu looked at Ning Xueyan in confusion and unconsciously lowered her voice.
"Go!" Ning Xueyan gave her a hard push.
This time, Qingyu didn't hesitate. She turned around and disappeared into the crowd.
Looking at her leaving figure, Ning Xueyan raised the corner of her mouth.
Mother Yun was Madam Ling's accomplice and knew a lot of things. How could she let her die so easily?
The Lord Protector's Manor was holding a wedding, so the banquet for the inner and outer courtyards was arranged near the second gate. The inner courtyard was in a mess.
No one noticed that in a pavilion near the second gate of the outer court, someone was also watching this farce with great interest.
In the extremely spacious and luxurious living room, a man was sitting against the railing. His face was as handsome as a jade carving. His skin was so white that it was almost transparent. His lips were red and his ink-colored clothes were covered with blood-red spider lilies, which made him look strange and evil.
He was handsome to the extreme, yet cold to the extreme. Several guards stood far away at the entrance of the stairs, not daring to move an inch.
He raised the red wine in the glass cup and slowly took a sip. His beautiful eyes reflected a strange coldness. The temperature around him was a few degrees lower than the surroundings.
At this time, his eyes fell on Ning Xueyan's thin body with interest.
"It's really interesting. I didn't expect that there was such an interesting little girl in the Lord Protector's Manor!"
A strange and cold light flashed in his beautiful eyes. His tone seemed to be that he found an interesting prey.
From his angle, he could see Ning Xueyan's movements clearly. Ning Xueyan's series of coherent movements fell into his eyes.
It was really surprising. He thought that she was just a delicate and weak girl who only knew how to cry. He didn't expect that she was as decisive and cruel as a wolf under her delicate and pitiful appearance.
She didn't even frown when she swallowed the blood. People all knew that it was not difficult to be cruel to others, but to be cruel to oneself!
The Fifth Young Lady of the Lord Protector's Manor was really interesting!
It was late at night, and the lights in the Lord Protector's Manor were dim. In the corner of the garden, a dim lantern illuminated them to the Auspicious Fortune Garden of Madam Dowager. Just now, when Madam Dowager summoned Ning Xueyan, Mother Han hurriedly followed her with a lantern.
"Young Lady, why does Old Madam want to see you at this time? Will he reprimand you because of what happened just now? "Mother Han was quite uneasy and anxious. She couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Nanny, don't worry. They won't do anything to me at this time!" Ning Xueyan sneered, which was particularly cold in the night. Of course, she knew the purpose of Old Madam. At this time, not only Old Madam, but also Madam Ling and her father were in Xiangfu Garden.
There was only one reason why so many people gathered together, and that was to use both the carrot and the stick to force him to admit to this matter!
Unfortunately, no matter what, she would not let them have their way today.
"But, Miss …" Mother Han was still worried.
"Nanny, after sending me into Xiangfu Garden, wait outside and come in when it's almost time. Do what I just taught you." Looking down at the road under her feet, she looked firm and decisive. Her eyes were cold. She knew their purpose, and she had been prepared before coming here.
Seeing her young lady's confident look, Mother Han was relieved and nodded hard, "Don't worry, Miss. I won't forget."
When they arrived at Xiangfu Hall, the whole Xiangfu Hall was brightly lit. A lot of servant girls and old maids were standing outside, trembling with fear. They didn't dare to move for fear of provoking their masters in the room.
In the room, Madam Dowager sat on the couch with a cold look. Madam Dowager Liu, who sat beside her, also frowned.
Ning Zu 'an sat on the right side of Madam Dowager with a sullen face, and Madam Ling stood beside his chair with her head down.
As soon as Ning Xueyan came in, Madam Dowager, who was sitting on the seat, stared at Ning Xueyan with anger in her eyes. She hit the ground with her crutch a few times and said with hatred, "Vile creature, kneel down."
The atmosphere in the whole Xiangfu Hall became more and more tense.
Ning Xueyan rolled her eyes slightly and was not in a hurry. When she came in, she had seen the whole scene clearly and knew that Madam Ling must have said something bad about her.
At this time, Madam Dowager also wanted to take advantage of this to suppress herself. There was a trace of sneer in her eyes. If she was still the weak Ning Xueyan, she would probably do whatever Madam Dowager said next after being scolded by Madam Dowager!
She reached out to take a cup of tea brought in by a servant girl, took a few steps forward and said softly, "Grandmother, are you better? If you are angry, you can say it slowly. Don't hurt your health."
Hearing her words, Madam Dowager's face couldn't help but soften a little.
Madam Dowager Liu nodded on the side. It seemed that this girl didn't mean it. She was kind-hearted. At this time, she still cared about her grandmother's health, which was completely different from what Madam Ling said.
"Fifth Girl, are you deliberately bringing this matter to the forefront this time?"
Madam Dowager Liu interrupted before Madam Dowager could speak. After being hit by Madam Dowager Liu, Madam Dowager couldn't say that she wanted Ning Xueyan to kneel down again.
"Great-aunt, I share the glory of Lord Protector's Manor. How could I do such a thing! I was sad when my mother passed away. Besides, I didn't eat for a day, so I felt dizzy. But if something happened to me, who could keep vigil for my mother? I had no choice but to take Mother Han to the kitchen to get some food to fill my stomach. "
Ning Xueyan's eyes were sincere with a little sadness. She didn't avoid it. In addition, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, so it was clear that she was telling the truth.
"Madam Ling, what's going on? Why is there not even a servant in Bright Frost Garden and no food is sent?"
Madam Dowager said coldly with a gloomy face. Almost at the same time, Ning Zu 'an also stared at Madam Ling.
In front of so many people, Madam Ling really didn't expect that Ning Xueyan, who had always been timid and cowardly, would talk back and say it in an orderly manner.
