Chapter 1184: Chapter 1184: Bringing Reinforcements

After taking a few sips, Auntie Tang shook her head, her face pale: "No, I can’t drink it."

The old maid looked at her pale cheeks with a heartache and said doubtfully: "Auntie, why does it seem that your complexion is getting worse?"

"Yes! I also feel very weak these days."

The old maid looked at the bowl of herbal medicine and then at Auntie Tang, hesitantly saying: "Auntie, do you think there might be something wrong with this medicine?"

Auntie Tang: "What do you mean...?"

The old maid nodded silently.

"It shouldn’t be, I haven’t been punished for such a disgraceful thing I did, it can’t be, definitely not." By the end of her sentence, Auntie Tang herself was unsure.

"Auntie, to be safe, why don’t I go to Prince Pu tomorrow and ask him to bring a doctor to examine you again?"

"Hmm, that sounds good, anyway I haven’t seen my father and mother for a long time. I really miss them." Auntie Tang readily agreed.

"Tomorrow I will find an excuse to sneak out of the General’s Mansion and ask Prince Pu for help."

"Hmm."

Auntie Tang also knew in her heart that the servants in the mansion couldn’t easily go out unless they had the master’s permission, otherwise, they couldn’t possibly walk out of the main gate of the General’s Mansion.

While they were chatting,

they didn’t notice at all.

A small figure was lying on the roof, and after hearing their conversation, turned around and disappeared swiftly.

The next day.

The old maid indeed went to Situtu Xueer to ask for leave, wanting to leave the General’s Mansion, with the excuse of picking up medicine for Auntie Tang.

Xuexue glanced at her lightly, expressionless: "Isn’t there a pharmacy in the mansion? What special medicine do you need to go outside to buy?"

The old maid felt a bit guilty: "The medicine Auntie Tang needs isn’t available in the mansion, so I need to buy it from an outside pharmacy."

Xuexue asked several times, but the old maid couldn’t give a reason.

In the end, the old maid didn’t manage to leave the General’s Mansion and naturally couldn’t go to Prince Pu’s Mansion to pass on the message.

Watching the old maid’s departing figure,

Xuexue laughed coldly to herself, for last night, Little Tiger had told her about Auntie Tang and the old maid’s plan.

Therefore, she would never let the old maid leave the General’s Mansion to inform Prince Pu’s Mansion.

Auntie Tang wants to find a savior? Dream on.

Moreover, Xuexue knew that Situ Yongjie’s aim was to kill Auntie Tang silently, and he even put colorless and tasteless poison in her herbal medicine, attempting to kill without anyone noticing.

Even if Auntie Tang died from the poison later, doctors wouldn’t be able to find the cause.

This was precisely Situ Yongjie’s ultimate goal.

Although Prince Chu’s Mansion had no power or influence,

Prince Pu, after all, could still speak a word or two in the Emperor’s presence, and at that time, if things were to go awry, it would be very troublesome for Situ Yongjie.

Don’t be deceived by Situ Yongjie’s appearance as a military man; when he needed to be meticulous, he was indeed careful. After discovering Auntie Tang’s affair, he considered all aspects, otherwise, with his character, he wouldn’t let Auntie Tang off so easily.

Couple’s Courtyard.

The old maid returned to the courtyard looking dejected.

Auntie Tang lay on the bed, her complexion white with a hint of black, looking extremely unwell.

"Weren’t you supposed to leave the mansion? Why are you back so soon?" Auntie Tang asked weakly, panting.

"Auntie, I was stopped by the First Miss, she wouldn’t let me leave the mansion."

"That little cheap person, she just wants to see me dead." Speaking of Xuexue made Auntie Tang agitated.

"Auntie, don’t be upset, you have to take care of yourself!"

"You can’t handle this, let the Second Miss do it instead."
