Xiao's wife kept trying to talk to the madam, but the madam was not enthusiastic about playing with her and kept turning back to ask someone if Master Yuan Kong was free.

  This is clearly a hint to drive them away, how can Fang's wife and Xiao's wife not hear it? However, the two of them came with the intention of targeting the Song family, so they couldn't be easily driven away. They had no choice but to pretend that they didn't understand.

  Madam Fang smiled and said, "You don't know, Yuan Kong's junior brother has recently arrived. I heard that his junior brother is also a high-ranking monk with great wisdom. I've come several times but left empty-handed, so I came again today, hoping to bask in the glory of your mansion and meet Master Yuan Kong."

  She didn't know which master she was going to see, and the big lady's heart suddenly became restless. She worried that this Mrs. Xiao was also related to the Song family's affairs, and worried that Song Chuyuan would be implicated later, so her heart grew more and more regretful.

  I should have known better than to marry my daughter off to the Pingyang Marquis's manor with a woman like Lady Xiao who is so ignorant of the ways of the world.

  It's too late for regrets now, she took a deep look at Mrs. Xiao, called Song Chuyi to her side and held her hand, nodding and smiling: "Since that's the case, I'll send someone to see if Master is free. The two ladies probably haven't had time to burn incense in front of Buddha yet? We won't delay you two either."

  No matter what it's like at home, outside everyone represents the face of the Song family. The second lady also sensed something was off and took out a handkerchief to cover her mouth as she smiled: "Since big sister has spoken, I'll take a few maids to change clothes. The weather is getting hotter, and after sitting in the carriage for a while, it's likely that we'll be punished by the master."

  The madam nodded in satisfaction.

  At this point, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Fang couldn't continue to stay there even with the thickest skin, so they reluctantly got up.

  Mrs. Fang looked at Song Chuyi, who was standing beside Mrs. Zhuang with her head down and a humble expression, still with a warm smile: "Having only met once, I feel particularly close to the sixth miss, this is also the fate of our two families, I wonder if we can get closer to Miss Liu in the future?"

  Song Chuyi lowered her head and didn't respond, just smiling.

  "Her children are still young, how many chances does she have to go out? She's probably lucky if she sees them a few times a year. What Madam Fang said is unfair."

  Xiao's wife was deeply afraid that if they continued talking, something would happen, so she half-pulled and half-dragged Fang's wife out of the door.

  "What are you talking about?" Mrs. Xiao was somewhat angry: "I said earlier that the Song family is not easy to deal with, aren't those words of yours causing suspicion?"

  Mrs. Fang's smile had completely disappeared, her face was gloomy and a bit frightening, she turned around to look at Mrs. Xiao with some impatience and retorted: "What else can we do? If you hadn't pointed it out just now, I wouldn't even know which one of them is the sixth Miss Song! The Song family is too cautious!"

  Mrs. Xiao also nodded in agreement: "Who says it's not? The women of their family have all become refined and elegant, gentle and courteous outside, but once they're at home, they're all sharp-tongued and quick-witted, each one more so than the last. It's hard to find fault with them."

  "No matter how difficult it is, we must get her." Madame Fang's face was long and drawn: "If there really is no opportunity, then we'll just have to take her by force. That Song Chu-yi must be captured. At the time, the Song family had clearly gone to the Zhiyuan Escort Agency first, but when they returned, only Song Chu-yi came back. She said she had nothing to do with the affair between Wang Ye and herself, but no one believed her. Even if it really didn't concern her, since she was the one who came back from there, she should know some details."

  Robbery?!

  Xiao's wife somewhat disapproved and shook her head: "This won't do, they are the young masters from a prominent family"

  "Then kill her." Madame Fang's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "They finally managed to get out the door, and if they miss this chance, it'll be gone. Besides, things have already reached this point, if that thing is really lost, none of us will survive!"

  Xiao's wife stared at her in shock, her face filled with surprise and discontent: "Are you crazy?!"

  Madam Fang glanced at her and sneered, "Am I crazy? Do you have any other way out now? Do you know what kind of consequences it would bring if something in Qi Shengyuan's hands fell into the Song family's hands?"

  Mrs. Xiao suddenly realized that things were not as simple as she had imagined, and was shocked to retreat two steps, with cold sweat all over her head that didn't even have time to wipe off.

  "But" Lady Xiao was somewhat flustered, and her heart was even more uncertain: "But they brought at least twenty imperial guards, this matter can't be that simple, if it's not done well, there will be traces left behind."

  Madam Fang fell into thought for a moment, glanced at the side room, and then turned to instruct her maid: "You immediately go back and pass on a few words to Master."

  She said, leading Xiao's wife and the crowd into her own boudoir, dismissing those around her and instructing the maid from earlier: "Be sure to deliver my words verbatim to Master, go quickly."

  Xiao's wife was already so frightened that she could hardly stand, deeply regretting getting involved in this matter.

  But it's come to this, there's no turning back now. Moreover, what Lady Fang said was right. The previous incident with the mad horse has already been noted by the Five Cities Military Command in the Song family's hearts. How could they not be suspicious of their own people when the deputy commander dares to treat the Song family like this?

  Even if we don't mention these things, King Duan will not give them a way out anyway.

  Madam Fang instructed the maid and turned to look at Madam Xiao: "Be careful what you say in front of them later, don't arouse their suspicion. When we go down the mountain, we will pass through a rugged mountain road, our people will be ambushing there."

  Anyway, let's catch the person first and then talk about it, which is also a way to deal with Wang.

  This little girl is obviously not simple, where can a young girl like her go out alone? And so coincidentally went to the place of Prince Duan's mansion, and even caught someone.

  She believed in evil and would only believe that what the madam said was true because of the good fortune of the crown prince. Speaking of which, why did the crown prince go there? And why did he speak up to help Song ChuYi out of trouble? Was it to win over the Song family?

  She made up her mind and looked at Xiao Furen, who emphasized again: "No, I'm a bit worried. He can't mobilize many people, you'd better send a message back home too."

  Mrs. Xiao widened her eyes, instinctively wanting to refuse, not wanting her husband to be dragged down, but she also understood that the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. After hesitating for a moment, she finally nodded: "I'll call someone back right away, but I don't know if they will return to the mansion ahead of time? If our people are not ready yet and they run away, wouldn't it be like pouring water into a bamboo basket?"

  "So hurry up and go keep them company while they're getting ready." Mrs. Fang said without hesitation: "Also send a message to Master Yuanhui, asking him to debate with Master Yuankong for as long as possible."
