The still sleeping residence quickly came alive after Zhao Zhongyu gave the order.
The servants urgently got up, extinguishing the lights under the corridor and in the courtyard one by one. They didn't dare to light the lamps inside, instead, group after group of people gathered outside the mourning hall, carrying white lanterns.
Once everyone was present, they also extinguished the lanterns in their hands.
Only candles burned in the mourning hall, with silence inside and outside the courtyard. No one dared to speak, but hearts were anxious, and from time to time, there were soft sobs from women and children.
Zhao Zhongyu and Zhao Hanzhang, after arranging the guards at the gate and patrols, arrived together. Mrs. Wang, who stayed close to Zhao Erlang, saw her and felt relieved, tears streaming down uncontrollably, "Third Lady..."
She stepped forward to be close to her.
