Bab 257: 256 set traps

"Madam, what has happened to Third Madam? Minzhi seems very distressed." Aqian's gaze also fell on Si Minzhi, "Eh, isn't that old woman... one of First Madam's people? Why is Minzhi talking to her?"

"How do you know she's First Madam's person?" Zhang Xiaoying turned her head.

Aqian said, "How could I not know? Whenever there is the slightest issue, that old woman is always the first to report to First Madam. If she wasn't one of her people, how could she be so prompt? But it's not surprising; the old lady favors First Madam and has given her some authority over the household management. To place her own people in other households is a piece of cake."

"That old woman wants Si Minzhi to go find your mother."

"She wants my mother to call the Imperial Physician? Is Third Madam's condition that critical?"

"Yes."
