"Leng Lian, you speak!"
Pei Xi commanded the maid servant behind her.
With her head lowered, Leng Lian stepped forward before everyone, enunciating clearly, "Sixteen years ago, the Lady Tianshuang of the Ji Mansion had a premature birth. When she married Lord Ji Dongming, she was already carrying the master's child. Thus, seven months into her marriage at the Ji Mansion, Miss Ruyan was born. At that time, under the alias Yi Lian, I served in the Ji Mansion as a 'Sister,' attending to Lady Tianshuang."
Her words, like a large stone, were thrown into the calm lake, stirring ripples!
What Ji Ruyan found even more amusing was that, at this moment, Lady Pei Yue of the Zhenbei pretended to size up Leng Lian, "Now that you mention it, I do indeed recall seeing you once at the Ji Mansion."
