Tong Xiyang and Madam Ren's intentions for coming were clear to her.
Ren Jun was still in the Ministry of Justice. The Wujin Bo Mansion was really being grilled over fire and oil right now. Given Ren Jun's relationship with Prince Rong and their joint venture at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, the Emperor just currently didn't have time to deal with the Wujin Bo Mansion, and the court's ministers hadn't yet focused their attention on it. But should someone raise the issue, Ren Jun's crime might not result in a death sentence, but incarceration would be unavoidable.
For Madam Ren and Tong Xiyang to come looking for her now, they must be at their wits' end and hitting walls everywhere, otherwise, why else would they seek her out when Fourth Master Xiao wasn't around!
Not meeting them was also fine. Given Tong Xiyang's temperament, whether she helped or not, Tong Xiyang might have already held a grudge against her.
Besides, what could she do anyway!
