Chapter 55 is different

"Your servant... Your servant..." Chun'er was trembling with fear at the long sword in Shen Yun'an's hand.

"My Lord, I just passed by here and didn't hear anything." Chun'er kept begging for mercy, fearing that Shen Yun'an would pick up the long sword to kill her.

"What a shame that you didn't hear anything!"

Shen Yun'an frowned. In his opinion, if Chun'er didn't hear anything, why would she be so scared? Once Xu Yuan and others knew about the substitution, he would be ruined.

He would never allow anyone to ruin her plan, let alone an insignificant maid.

"Chun'er, you have been by my side for many years. If you really heard something, just tell me and I won't pursue it."

Old Lady Shen also saw Chun'er's clues and reminded her.

"But if you don't say it, the sword has no eyes."

Seeing the sword in Shen Yun'an's hand being raised little by little, Chun'er's defense line in her heart had already been broken.

"My Lord, please don't kill me."

"I only heard that Lu Rou has a child."

Shen Yun'an paused while holding the sword in his hand, obviously doubtful, "Did you really only hear this?"

"Absolutely true."

"My Lord, please forgive me. I swear I will never tell anyone about this."

Shen Yun'an saw that Chun'er's expression did not seem to be fake, and Mu Ran breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the baby swap was not discovered, everything would be fine.

"Yun'an, in my opinion, let Chun'er go this time."

When Shen Yun'an was hesitating whether to deal with Chun'er directly, Old Lady Shen spoke.

"Aren't you still short of a messenger?"

Shen Yun'an's face softened a lot after hearing this. The people sent to Rou'er were always some guards who were messengers.

If there were too many of them, it would eventually arouse Xu Yuan's suspicion. Since Chun'er knew about Rou'er's existence, she could use it.

"Chun'er, I will give you a chance, but if you dare to tell others about Lu Rou and the child, especially Madam, I will make you disappear from this world forever."

Shen Yun'an warned.

Chun'er nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Lord."

"Mother, I'll leave Chun'er to you first."

Shen Yun'an said to his mother.

Old Madam Shen responded, and after Shen Yun'an left, she said to Chun'er on the ground, "Come in with me."

Even after entering the house, Chun'er was still nervous. She lowered her head and asked tremblingly, "Old Madam, do you have any instructions for me?"

Old Madam Shen glanced at Chun'er and said in a light tone, "Chun'er, I think you should be able to guess that Lu Rou is the mistress that Yun'an kept outside."

"During this period of time, Yun'an has been with his mistress most of the time. Tomorrow you will go for me to see what's going on with Lu Rou and why she appeared outside the Marquis's Mansion for no reason."

When Old Madam Shen said this, her voice revealed displeasure.

Even if Lu Rou gave birth to a child for their Shen family, as a mistress, she must abide by her duties. It is nothing more than causing trouble for Yun'an to appear outside the Marquis's Mansion without a greeting.

She will not allow such a thing to happen.

Chun'er soon understood what Old Lady Shen meant.

"Old Lady, do you want me to tell you about Lu Rou's situation after I go there?"

Old Lady Shen nodded. Chun'er had been by her side for many years. Instead of leaving things to others and leaving hidden dangers, it would be more comfortable to use someone who knows her well.

"Please rest assured, Old Lady, I will definitely complete the task you asked me to do."

"Yes." Old Lady Shen was obviously very satisfied with Chun'er's words and raised her hand, "You can go out first."

"Don't do it again today. If it happens again, you know what the consequences will be."

Thinking of Chun'er's eavesdropping, Old Lady Shen said.

In the next few days, Chun'er came to Lu Rou's house under the order of Old Lady Shen.

At first, Lu Rou didn't care about the maid who appeared, until she knew that she was someone close to the old lady, she had a slightly better face.

When Chun'er was about to leave that day, Lu Rou suddenly spoke.

"You, come here."

Hearing Lu Rou's call, Chun'er walked forward quickly and asked with a smile, "Miss Lu, I wonder what you want to call me for?"

"I'm asking you if the Marquis's Mansion is really going to have a concubine recently?"

Although Shen Yun'an explained it to her that day, Lu Rou always felt uneasy about it. This maid named Chun'er was not only from the Marquis's Mansion, but also from the old lady's side. She must know more about the inside story.

"Miss Lu, the Marquis only has his wife by his side, so there is no concubine."

"But what I heard at that time was clearly not like that."

After hearing this, Lu Rou told her about the situation in the restaurant at that time. The old woman stood beside Lu Rou, "Miss Lu, since Chun'er said there was no one, could it be that someone in the mansion deliberately spread the news?" "

It's more likely that it's someone who loves the Marquis."

Lu Rou's face instantly became ferocious when she heard this.

"Xu Yuan is fine, but if I knew that someone else had a crush on Brother Yun'an, I would definitely cut her into pieces!"

Chun'er trembled with fear, especially when she heard Lu Rou's words, her face became even paler.

She asked why those words Lu Rou said were so familiar, wasn't it her who spread it?

Seeing that Chun'er couldn't get anything out of her, Lu Rou waved her hand and motioned her to leave quickly.

"I thought I could find out something, but it's really useless."

Lu Rou snorted lightly, her tone becoming more and more contemptuous.

Chun'er heard these words from Lu Rou before she left the house, and there was obvious unwillingness in her eyes.

She suddenly realized that the old lady was talking about entering the house that day, not herself, but Lu Rou.

In other words, she was just happy for nothing during that time.

Compared with Lu Rou's current attitude, Chun'er's eyes were obviously jealous.

To say that the lady is still the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion, her status is there, but this Lu Rou, she has inquired about it, is just an orphan, just because she gave birth to a child for the Marquis, she was raised outside.

Why should it be different.

But Lu Rou did not restrain herself because of the mother-in-law's dissuasion.

She snorted coldly, "What's the big deal about a maid, am I afraid of her?"

In the Marquis's Mansion.

Xu Yuan took the wet nurse and the child to the pavilion in the back garden.

"Miss, the weather is nice today. If you have nothing to do, you should go out for a walk. It will be good for your health."

The nurse said to Xu Yuan while holding the child.

Xu Yuan responded softly, and then saw Cui Liu hurriedly walking towards her.

"Miss."

Seeing Cui Liu's hurried look, Xu Yuan asked.

"What happened?"

When Cui Liu saw the nurse, she stopped talking, obviously a little hesitant.
