Upon receiving the news, The Duke's wife immediately sent out spies to investigate. Due to the Duke Residence's established information gathering system, the details were well-uncovered by the time she personally reached the Princess Residence.
When she heard the reports, she expressed extreme surprise and suspicion about the authenticity of the information, "Su Rong was holding hands with Duanhua? They had dinner and went shopping together? Is it really Su Rong you're talking about?"
The man replied, "The news is widely spread in the Capital City. It's said to be Lady Su Qi, daughter of the Inspector of Jiangzhou. They say she's the one who's betrothed to the fourth young master from our Duke Residence."
After speaking, the man continued, "I had my doubts too, so I had several people find out about it. Everyone claimed it's true. The Duanhua Princess directly addressed that lady by her name. They were seen by many people. There's no room for fake news."
