Tong Xihua nodded silently, without speaking, while Lady held her hand and whispered in her ear...
The Grand Dowager sat with a stern face on the chair, looking at Xiao Yanyi and said, "Have you found out how he died?"
Xiao Yanyi responded, "Those sixteen people went to Fujian and were killed on the way. It was Ren Jun who sent a message through someone, saying a friend of his, who works in river transport, fished their bodies out of the river. When he saw they had the mansion's token on them, he informed Ren Jun. Ren Jun, upon seeing the bodies, confirmed they were from the outer court of the Marquis Mansion. He brought people to collect the bodies of those sixteen, and then went to find Fourth Brother. When he couldn't find Fourth Brother, he came to me."
