Jiang Shu was coughing, speaking intermittently, "Mother Gui, stop bringing up these baseless rumors to grandma, you may leave now!"
Su Luo realized that these two were likely putting on a charade. She stopped feeling anxious, stood there, with her eyes lowered, wondering how things would unfold.
Mother Gui bowed deeply, "Princely Heir, it's only right that I should keep my mouth shut at your command. But this involves your health, and I can't help but speak up."
The old woman spoke sternly, "If that's the case, then out with it!"
The room fell silent abruptly. Princess Pingning had a bad gut feeling but couldn't find a valid reason to stop Mother Gui.
Mother Gui was a maid gifted to the old Madam when the latter got married. When Jiang Shu started showing signs of frailty ten years ago, the old Madam assigned Mother Gui to take care of him. This had gained Mother Gui a great deal of trust from the old Madam.
