Gu Fangzi never dreamed that the message the old woman brought back was: Lan Xiang had left!
"Madam Li, who is in charge of training and distributing the inner court servants, has taken all the maids who are over eighteen and not yet matched with someone out to get married. Several young stewards from the manors who were newly promoted have reached the age to take a wife, and the maids were taken to be well matched with them. Miss Lan Xiang was also taken away. They said that the vacancies will be properly filled in the next few days..."
"Bang!" With a crisp sound, Gu Fangzi smashed the teacup in her hand to pieces and rose to her feet, running towards the main courtyard.
Lan Xiang was actually taken away without a sound or a whisper!
At this moment, Gu Fangzi realized how important Lan Xiang was to her heart! She had served her for so many years, and now she was gone without a trace! Who could have done something so absolute?
