Chapter 1154: Chapter 1154: Concubine-born Daughter

Xuexue had been wandering among commoners for more than ten years. Situ Yongjie already felt guilty about her, so in this matter, he was even less willing to let her suffer any grievance.

Situ Yongjie firmly shook his head. "No, you’re just a young girl. What do you know? The rumors outside could drown you."

Xuexue stood up, walked up to him, and shook his arms with both hands, speaking coquettishly: "Oh, Father, stop talking about my matters. Aren’t you planning to visit the War Prince’s Mansion? Hurry up and go—it’s getting late."

Only then did Situ Yongjie suddenly realize. "Yes, yes, I almost forgot."

After speaking, he turned to the Old Madam again and said, "Mother, let’s go together."

The Old Madam, who was having her breakfast, raised her head in slight surprise. "I should go too?"

"If all of us go, it’ll be more sincere."

The Old Madam couldn’t help but laugh. "Visiting someone and it has to come with sincerity! I’ve lived for decades, and this is truly a first."

"Oh, Mother, just listen to your son. After all, since your son works under the War Prince, if we have more interactions, it can only benefit your son and not harm him, right?"

The Old Madam thought for a moment, put down her chopsticks, took a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, and said, "That’s true. Alright, let’s all go to the War Prince’s Mansion and see if we can meet the Prince."

Soon after, several carriages were prepared at the gates of the General’s Mansion.

Situ Yongjie and the Old Madam each had their own carriage, while Xuexue shared one with Situ Qinger.

Auntie Tang, however, had to squeeze in with her children in a single carriage.

Originally, Situ Qinger, after being slapped by Situ Yongjie, had been sulking in her room and refused to go. It took Auntie Tang a lot of heartfelt persuasion before she reluctantly agreed.

Because of the slap from Situ Yongjie, her face still bore five clear finger marks. She had to apply a very thick layer of makeup to barely cover them.

At the moment, she sat in the carriage, glaring at Xuexue across from her with a face full of resentment.

She thought that all her misfortunes were caused by this little cheap person, Xuexue.

The dagger-like gaze from across the carriage.

Xuexue ignored it entirely, simply closing her eyes to rest.

At this moment, Situ Qinger was still very young and inexperienced in every way. Xuexue didn’t take her seriously at all.

However, she wouldn’t let a tiger feed and grow either, never giving Situ Qinger the chance to rise and harm her in the future.

The experiences of her previous life were too painful, cutting into her bones and making her sleepless every night. Thus, just because she wasn’t taking action against Situ Qinger now didn’t mean she wouldn’t in the future.

She was merely letting her bounce around for a little bit longer.

Taking care of her was only a matter of time.

Xuexue’s indifference made Situ Qinger even more arrogant.

"Elder Sister, why are you so devious?"

Without even opening her eyes, Xuexue replied lightly, "How exactly am I devious?"

"How not? I’ve heard about it—you actually told Father to have me get married first. Isn’t that hurting me?" Situ Qinger gritted her teeth in hatred. This little cheap person knew full well that she liked the Fourth Prince, but she still urged Father to marry her off without care.

"Second Sister, that was not my idea—it was Grandmother’s decision. Her Ladyship had your best interests in mind."

"Best interests? If it’s for the best, why don’t you get married first!" With her current status as a concubine-born daughter, there was no hope of finding a good match, and that was precisely what enraged Situ Qinger the most. Her long-cherished dreams of the Imperial Family were slipping further and further away.

Xuexue opened her eyes. "If you’re unhappy, you can confront Grandmother about it. Why take it out on me?"

"If it weren’t for your sudden appearance, would I have fallen to this point?"
