Seeing Hai Tang with bloodshot eyes, the look of someone about to devour another, Yang Mengchen was quite astonished. Hai Tang had never shown such an expression after coming to her side: "What in the world happened?"
"Magistrate Jiayang is dead." Hai Tang's voice was restrained, clearly with a grinding tone.
Yang Mengchen was startled and wondered who Magistrate Jiayang was? It was no wonder she was unclear; after all, she had never met Magistrate Jiayang.
Sister Jin, noticing Yang Mengchen's expression, stepped forward and began to explain.
"How did Magistrate Jiayang die?"
"The rumor is that Magistrate Jiayang was playing in the garden, accidentally slipped into a pond, and drowned because she was not rescued in time."
