Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179 Tolerance

Situ Yongjie glared with disgust at Auntie Tang, who was kneeling below. This foul woman dared to place such a big green hat on him; as a man, he found this intolerable.

However, if such a scandal emerged in a noble family, it must not be spread, especially since he was the Great General, renowned in Moli Country. If the scandal of his woman having an affair with the servant spread, others would say he, as a General, lacked charm and couldn’t even keep the women by his side. His colleagues would mock him for being a cuckold.

Thinking of this, Situ Yongjie grew angrier, wore a stern face, and said with a foul expression, "Such a scandal has occurred, this woman absolutely cannot stay in the mansion. Mother, what do you think...?"

"Hmm!"

The Old Madam nodded, agreeing with Situ Yongjie’s opinion. Auntie Tang had committed such disgraceful acts and definitely couldn’t stay.

However, as for Prince Pu, it’s unknown how to address the situation.

The Old Madam regretted having misjudged people. Ten years ago, she chose Auntie Tang because of her noble background, thinking she could help Situ Yongjie have a smooth official career, and was eager to bring her into the General’s Mansion to assist him.

Situ Yongjie was unaware of these things.

Back then, the young and beautiful Auntie Tang fell for Situ Yongjie and was constantly infatuated with him.

Yet, Situ Yongjie loved his wife Lady Li deeply and refused to marry her.

The Old Madam paid a visit to Auntie Tang and instigated her, saying that Prince Pu only had her, his beloved daughter, and would surely be very fond of her, teaching her to go on a hunger strike, and Prince Pu would definitely give in.

Sure enough, the anxious Prince Pu, seeing his beloved daughter go on a hunger strike for three days and nights, immediately softened his attitude and agreed to allow Auntie Tang to become a concubine in the General’s Mansion.

In fact, Prince Pu also had plans. Being a concubine was only temporary; his daughter, being Prince Pu’s daughter, couldn’t remain inferior forever. There would certainly be a day of being made official.

Who would have thought this plan would go unfinished for over ten years.

The Old Madam glanced at Auntie Tang, kneeling on the ground, and then said softly, "But no matter what, she is Prince Pu’s daughter, and if the punishment is too severe, Prince Pu might intervene."

Situ Yongjie flared up again upon hearing this, slammed his hand hard onto the table, roaring, "His daughter committed vile acts; why should I fear him? Besides, his daughter married into the General’s Mansion, alive, she is a person of the General’s Mansion; dead, she is a ghost of the General’s Mansion. He has no right to interfere. After doing such disgraceful things, even if I grant her a piece of white silk, it wouldn’t be excessive."

The two people kneeling below shivered in fear; their adultery had been exposed, and their hearts were anxious and uneasy. Suddenly shocked by Situ Yongjie’s roar, they collapsed to the ground.

Especially Auntie Tang, hearing Situ Yongjie mention granting her a piece of white silk, turned pale with fright, quickly kneeling and begging for mercy: "Old Master, please spare me, I will never dare again."

"In the future?"

Situ Yongjie coldly laughed, "This woman sees my tolerance as too great. You still think there will be a ’future’?"

"Old Master, for the sake of the children, give me a chance. I will definitely become a new person and not disappoint the elders."

Situ Yongjie glared fiercely at the woman kowtowing on the ground. He inherently had no affection for her and felt even more disgusted after this affair.

"Return to your room and reflect. You are not allowed to step out for half a year."

Upon hearing this, Auntie Tang froze for a moment, surprised that Situ Yongjie’s punishment was so light; however, thinking of her children, perhaps he spared her life, she hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you for your mercy, Old Master. I will certainly return to reflect."
