Chapter 1197: Chapter 1197 Condolences

Situtu Qinger’s words scared Granny Li half to death, and she quickly knelt on the ground and started to swear...

"Second Miss, I swear to the heavens, I am absolutely loyal to the Concubine without any disloyalty. Otherwise, let me be struck by thunder and die miserably."

"If it wasn’t you, how could the Concubine, who was perfectly fine, just disappear?"

"I, an old servant, also don’t know what happened."

Granny Li felt very wronged. She served Auntie Tang with dedication, so how did she end up with the reputation of trying to harm her master in the end?

"I will definitely get to the bottom of this." Auntie Tang’s death was too sudden, and Situtu Qinger found it hard to accept. It seemed that the status of a concubine-born daughter would stick with her for life, because Auntie Tang was already dead and Situ Yongjie would never legitimize a dead woman.

Granny Li was both shocked and frightened: "I recall, ever since half a month ago, the Concubine looked dispirited. At that time, I suspected the decoction might have been tampered with, and even tried to find a way to invite Prince Pu over to help, but who would have thought, the General’s Mansion was put under lockdown, and the matter got delayed. Second Miss, you know this too."

Yes! What previously seemed insignificant now became clear in Situtu Qinger’s mind.

"Right, Grandfather, I must ask Grandfather for help." Saying this, she turned around intending to run outside.

Granny Li quickly stopped her: "Second Miss, it’s the third watch of the night now, better not disturb the Prince. Send someone over at dawn instead."

Suddenly, Situtu Qinger came to her senses, yes, it’s the third watch of the night, how can she go to Prince Pu’s Mansion now! Grandfather and Grandmother are old and can’t handle the shock. If they learn about mother’s death and can’t digest it, they might follow her; wouldn’t that leave the siblings adrift?

Situtu Qinger stopped again at the doorway.

At this moment, Situ Dieer and Situ Yu, her brother and sister, also walked in...

By this time, they already knew the truth about Auntie Tang’s death.

As soon as they entered, all three siblings were in tears, kneeling before Auntie Tang’s bed.

The next day.

The news of Auntie Tang’s death spread throughout the Capital.

Prince Pu, upon hearing, felt as though struck by thunder, he couldn’t believe his ears. His daughter, just around thirty, in her prime as a noblewoman, how could she be gone overnight!

Thus, with Princess Consort Pu, he hurried to the General’s Mansion to pay respects.

Upon reaching the grand entrance, stark white cloth was hanging, visible to all, showing someone in the mansion had passed away.

Princess Consort Pu trembled as she got down from the carriage, looked up at everything in disbelief.

"Prince...Prince, is it true that our daughter is really dead?"

"Judging by the setup at the General’s Mansion, it’s most likely." Prince Chu’s heart also ached, this was the daughter he had spoiled since young, lively just a while ago, how could she suddenly be gone?

"Let’s go, let’s find the General and demand justice. We entrusted our daughter to him, yet she ended up like this." Princess Consort Pu, besides being sorrowful, felt very angry.

Because there was a fatality in the mansion, and it was Prince Pu’s beloved daughter.

So Situ Yongjie had the Exhortation Document written overnight, and at dawn, he dispatched people to spread the mourning news, aiming to have people come to send Auntie Tang off. This was also a custom in Moli Country, even official families were no exception.

Knowing Prince Pu’s deep affection for his daughter, he would definitely come to make a scene today, so Situ Yongjie waited at the door early. As the saying goes: whether a blessing or a curse, you can’t avoid it. Furthermore, as a dignified General, he did not believe Prince Pu could do anything to him.
