That night, Xiao Juan slept in the study.
The next day, he woke up just as it was bright.
The maidservants walked in and helped him take off his changed clothes to wash them. They were shocked to find that their clothes were stained with blood.
Xiao Juan reminded in a low voice, "Don't let anyone know about this, especially the County Princess."
The maidservants hurriedly nodded. "Yes!"
They carried their dirty clothes out of the study and bumped into Granny Xiu Yan.
Granny Xiu Yan couldn't help but frown when she saw their panic.
"What happened?"
The maidservants did not dare to tell the truth and could only say vaguely, "Nothing."
Seeing that they were hugging their clothes tightly as if they were carrying some shameful treasure, Granny Xiu Yan couldn't help but wonder if these two had stolen something.
Granny Xiu Yan reached out. "Bring the clothes over for me to see."
The maidservants were naturally unwilling.
