The Second Madam was taken aback and raised her eyebrows. Since the dead is already dead, there's nothing more to say. She then nodded at Nanny Li, and said indifferently, "Go ahead."
"She said..." Nanny Li indeed didn't dare to repeat such words, but if she didn't, and the Second Madam found out later, her ending would be worse. After thinking about it, she steeled herself and said, "She said... the one in Marquis's heart isn't her, isn't Tong Xihua, and isn't Shen..."
This was equivalent to saying nothing, utterly worthless. The Second Madam nodded casually, but Nanny Li continued, "…it isn't you, Madam, either."
The Second Madam paused in her tea-drinking, her sharp gaze shot towards Nanny Li, who shivered and involuntarily lowered her voice as she continued, "She said the one the Marquis truly loves... is... the Fourth Madam!"
Suddenly, the room fell silent.
