The group had only taken a few steps when they heard a series of embarrassing moans.

Mu Xin Nuan was someone who had lived a second life, and since she was the one who orchestrated this whole situation, she naturally knew what was going on! Her face flushed slightly, but she remained silent.

The girl in purple, upon hearing this, asked curiously, "Huh, what's that sound? It sounds like a woman's voice!" Then she exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that besides Miss Li being knocked unconscious, there are other women here who have also been knocked unconscious?"

In fact, many people present recognized what the sound was, and Madam Yang naturally recognized it as well. However, this was the backyard, and there was a rockery not far away. Could it be that...?

Madam Yang's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, and Sun Ruoxiang and the others seemed to feel a little embarrassed as well!

What made Madam Yang even more embarrassed was that she hadn't noticed the girl in purple earlier. Now, upon seeing her suddenly, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak!

"Your Highness, what brings you here?"

Boom! Yang Yu'er's mind went blank for a moment! What did her mother just call her? Little Princess? Could she be the Emperor's youngest daughter, and the youngest princess in the royal family, Duanmu Jing?

Mu Xin Nuan was also somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected that the little girl who had been helping her and her older cousin was actually the Emperor's most beloved little princess! In her previous life, she had never had the chance to meet this little princess!

Rumor has it that this little princess was born with a weak constitution, so she spent most of her life in the palace and rarely went out. But judging from her complexion now, she doesn't seem like a sickly person at all!

Mu Xin Nuan suppressed her curiosity; the matter at hand was the most important thing. As for the little princess, she would deal with that when the opportunity arose.

When Madam Yang saw the young ladies exchanging glances, they clearly suspected something. Now that things had come to this point, it was no longer possible to cover it up. Not only could it not be covered up, but the matter had to be dealt with in the open. Otherwise, once today's banquet was over, the rumors about the Duke of Anguo's mansion would be extremely negative!

"Go and see which courtyard's servant is so shameless, daring to commit such filthy acts here!"

"Yes, Madam." The old woman was perceptive and clearly understood what the madam meant. These were servants engaging in such despicable acts.

Mu Xin Nuan lowered her head, silently counting in her mind: one, two, three!

The moment the three words were uttered silently in his heart, he heard the old woman cry out in pain!

This shout only piqued everyone's curiosity! Peeking closer, they saw that even Madam Yang's personal maid had been kicked out!

Now everyone was puzzled. This old woman was Madam Yang's attendant, meaning she was Madam Yang's person of authority in this mansion! Who was this person who dared to be so bold as to kick the old woman?

The young ladies naturally dared not go over, lest they offend their eyes. Some of the ladies who wanted to watch the show quickly instructed their maids to help the old woman, clearly wanting to see what was going on!

Madam Yang tried to speak up to stop them, but it was too late!

Helpless, she could only watch as the maids helped the old woman past, glancing cautiously in that direction a few more times. When they returned, the way they looked at Yang Yu'er was rather strange. After they reported back to their respective young mistresses, the way these young ladies looked at Yang Yu'er was also odd!

Yang Yu'er sensed something was wrong, but she didn't go over there, because she didn't know what had happened.

With so many people around, it didn't take long for Yang Yu'er to find out what was going on!

Behind the artificial hill, Yang You and his personal maid Long'er were actually engaging in illicit acts!

Yang Yu'er's face turned deathly pale, and she almost lost her balance. She swayed, but luckily a maid supported her, and she managed to stand firmly.

Madam Yang was furious, but in front of all the young ladies, especially the little princess, she couldn't let them ruin Yang Yu'er's reputation. She quickly smiled and said, "Little princess, such a sordid thing has happened in the manor. It is truly my fault for not teaching her properly. Please, little princess, move to the flower hall in the front."

Even the most naive princess could guess what had happened by now. Her face flushed slightly, and she nodded.

With the little princess's approval, the others naturally couldn't linger any longer and followed her to the flower hall.

Because of this incident, the young ladies had no heart to celebrate any birthday anymore. Even the way they looked at Yang Yu'er was different!

This personal maid was having an affair with the second young master of the manor? This master's reputation will surely be damaged! Just look at the way everyone is looking at Yang Yu'er right now, and you'll know it.

If a personal maid is so dissolute, how good can her master be?

They were about to leave when the little princess accidentally glanced at Li Wanyue and remembered that she had been knocked unconscious!

"By the way, why hasn't Madam Yang arrived yet? Miss Li was knocked unconscious at your residence, and we haven't given her an explanation for this yet. We can't just let it go like this, can we?"

The ladies then noticed that Li Wanyue's expression was off and all looked at her.

Li Wanyue was somewhat dazed at this point. Seeing Mu Xinnuan winking at her, she timidly said, "I remember now. After that maid named Long'er led me a short distance, we met the Second Young Master. The Second Young Master Yang said he had something to discuss with her, so I waited there. At first, I didn't think anything was wrong, but later, something seemed amiss. Just as I was about to turn back to find my cousin, I felt a sharp pain in my neck, and then I knew nothing more."

Princess Duanmu Jing nodded and said, "What the maid said earlier was correct. I just had someone check, and sure enough, they found a piece of wood in the grass not far away. It should be the one that knocked Miss Li unconscious."

Sun Ruoxiang was the first to react, exclaiming, "Could it be that Miss Li also heard some unpleasant sounds, and then because you may have unintentionally disturbed that couple, they came out and knocked you unconscious?"

Once she said that, everyone agreed and concluded that Li Wanyue had accidentally heard some ambiguous sounds, and then was discovered and knocked unconscious!

As Mu Xin Nuan listened to the words of the ladies present, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She glanced at Yang Yu'er, who was obviously restless, and thought to herself, "The feeling of having one's reputation ruined is not bad, is it?"

You schemed against others first, so you can't blame them for retaliating! Yang Yu'er, you brought this on yourself!

Mu Xin Nuan glanced at her, then looked in Mu Xin Yao's direction. Mu Xin Yao, as for your performance today, we'll settle things slowly when we get back!
