Chapter 718: Chapter 718 Mourning and Conspiracy (1)_1

The maid servants around her rushed to revive her. When she came to, Lady You inhaled a shivering breath, the tears in the corners of her eyes constantly streaming down, her face turned deathly white.

"Miss, this is a letter from your grandfather." The young servant on the ground kneeled with his head down, "I barely escaped. Miss, you must plead with them."

"You can go back." Lady You finally managed to steady her mind and ordered solemnly.

The young servant on the floor was shocked. Where would Lady You ask him to return to? The You Residence had been sealed off by the third son and his men. Everyone in the residence was arrested by the government troops. If he returned, wouldn’t he be throwing himself into the trap?

But without returning to the You Residence, he would have nowhere to go. Because he had no Silver, and he was an indentured servant, it wouldn’t be long before he was caught and sent to Officialdom for a reward.

The only escape was to stay by Lady You’s side.

"Please spare me, Miss," the servant decided that he would rather die than leave the You Residence. He knelt on the ground, constantly kowtowing and pleading with Lady You.

"Young Mistress, it’s impossible to return to the residence. How about sending him to the manor?" The nanny carefully suggested to Lady You, as she was a long-time family servant of the You Residence, and formerly Lady You’s wet-nurse, her words naturally carried some weight.

"Send him to the manor immediately." Lady You commanded impatiently, "Be careful, don’t let anyone see."

"Yes." A maid stepped forward.

"Thank you, Miss." The servant on the ground was ecstatic and crying tears of joy, happily following the maid out.

Lady You looked at the snowflakes outside the door, her face looking extremely bad.

"Young Mistress." The nanny gestured for a few young maids to stand guard at the door, then carefully approached Lady You and asked, "What about them?"

What to do? They all asked her, but how would she know? Lady You felt suffocated, "Leave them be."

The harsh and heartless words shocked the nanny, who couldn’t help but cry out, "But what about the Old Master and the others..."

"You think I don’t want to save them?" Lady You’s face turned cold, "But have you considered, the matter of the food, both my son and I were involved. If we get involved now, do you think we can get away? Prince Ling is not someone who can be easily deceived."

The nanny sympathized, people are selfish at their core. But her heart ached and she felt desolate when she thought about the Old Master who cherished Lady You so much but faced abandonment in the crucial moment for fear of getting burned.

But then again, she quickly dismissed the pity. Their lives were not affected by the crisis in the You Residence because their indenture was in Lady You’s hands.

As a married woman, Lady You naturally wouldn’t be implicated by the You Residence, which meant that the people by her side could be safe and sound.

After thinking it through, the nanny didn’t hope for Lady You to intervene in the affairs of the You Residence anymore.

"Be sure to watch your mouths. If I hear a word about the food, I will take the offender’s life." Lady You coldly ordered.

"Yes, Young Mistress. I will go and give them a good lecture." The nanny softly replied, "Should we deal with the manor?"

"It is best if we can handle it. Also, send some Silver to the prison so the Old Master has some money on him." Ultimately, he was her father, Lady You didn’t completely abandon him. "Go there again tomorrow."

She repeated her command one more time.
