In the backyard of the Tong Residence, a lady walked hurriedly into the side yard.
She seemed to be in her thirties, and her hair was casually bunned up. She looked a little like Tong Lan, but her face was deathly pale.
She was Tong Lan's mother, Tie Kuang, and she handled practically everything in the house.
When Tong Zhenye went drinking with Ren Baqian last night, she didn't feel that anything was wrong with it. However, now that the empress was almost at the door and both of them still hadn't come out of the house, Tie Kuang knew that something was wrong.
"Madam!" Two burly men were sitting in the yard in a daze and quickly got up when they saw her.
Not only did this lady keep everything in the house neat and tidy, but she was pretty strong as well. In another decade or so, she might be able to break through to the Cardinal Heaven level and be highly respected in the family.
