The wind rises and the clouds surge

  That morning, Hyun's figure had vanished from Cheonryeon. Jihyun said that Hyeon had just gone to get breakfast, but she never came back.

  Later, Zhi Lan went to look for Wei Zhen, but she never came back again either.

  The more she thought about it, the more it didn't feel right. So Song Lingyu decided to go out and find them herself. However, as soon as she reached the entrance of the courtyard, she saw Zhao Mama from Madame Yuan's residence walking towards her.

  Mrs. Zhao's face was small and her skin had lost its luster, her facial skin slightly sagging, making her look even older. After seeing Song Lingyu, Mrs. Zhao walked over and said: "Young Miss, the old lady is asking you to go to Jia'an Hall."

  Song Lingyu glanced at Zhao Mama and walked towards the old lady's Jia'an Courtyard. In fact, there was a flaw in this matter - if it was to go to the old lady's Jia'an Courtyard, why did Zhao Mama, who was by the side of the first wife, come here? It seems that the first wife is going to take action this time. If guessed correctly, both Zilan and Huizhen are in the hands of the first wife.

  After arriving at the Jia'an Temple, Song Lingyu indeed saw Qi Lan and Hui Zhen kneeling on the ground, both with some minor injuries on their faces. Qi Lan's injury looked more serious than Hui Zhen's, with a slight abrasion on her forehead and bloodstains on her sleeve. Hui Zhen didn't seem to be as seriously injured, but there was some mud on the edge of her shoes, it was unclear where it came from.

  There were also several old women who usually did odd jobs kneeling beside them, and some of the old women's faces also had scars, but not as severe as those on the two girls' bodies.

  Song Lingyu looked at the few people kneeling, then glanced at the big madam and several aunts standing on one side, as well as the young ladies of the house. She guessed that the injuries on Zhi Lan and Hui Zhen were inflicted by the several wives, but she didn't know what it was about.

  The two maidservants looked at Song Lingyu with a hint of hope in their eyes.

  Song Lingyu ignored the two maids and only spoke to Old Madam: "Old Madam, I don't know what you want me for this time, could you please tell me?"

  The old lady raised her eyes and took a look at Song Lingyu, then looked at the two maids kneeling on the ground. To be honest, she didn't believe what the big madam said either, but now with witnesses and evidence present, she couldn't favor Song Lingyu anymore. "Today, there's a batch of silk fabrics bestowed by the empress dowager, and just now someone came to report that your two maids wanted to take those fabrics, but were stopped by these women and a fight broke out."

  Two people go get materials? How is that possible?

  Wei Zhen just went out to fetch some breakfast, as for Xi Lan, she was only looking for Wei Zhen, so how did they both end up in the warehouse of the Prime Minister's residence?

  This must be all planned by Madam!

  Song Lingyu looked at Zhi Lan in surprise and said, "Zhi Lan, is it really like what Old Madam said?"

  Zhilan, who was asked, did not speak up. Song Qiaohui, standing beside her, spoke out first: "What else is there to ask? This girl has fallen to this state, and she still wouldn't dare to lie to clear her own name?"

  Song Lingyu said: "Is Sanmei being too rash? I trust the maid in my room. Is Sanmei saying this because she's afraid that my maid will say something unfavorable about her?"

  Song Qiaohui was shocked, she just couldn't bear to look at Song Lingyu and wanted to vent her anger on her. Why did Song Lingyu become the one who suffered every time since she returned from the mountain stronghold?

  The old lady glared at Song Qiaohui, as if blaming her for being impolite. Then she looked at Zhilan and said: "Zhilan, you tell me what happened."
