But Ruan Qingyan calmly said, "It was Ruan An who told me!"

"Ruan An?" Qiu Yelan was stunned and looked at Ruan An, the old butler who was coming from not far away.

As expected, Ruan An bowed and asked anxiously, "Was the letter used at the court?"

"Yes," Ruan Qingyan nodded and made a serious salute to him, "Thanks for your reminding, or we would be caught in big trouble!" If Ruan Qingyan didn't take out the letter in time, even if Qiu Yelan was articulate, she could only depend on Empress Jiang to muddle up t
