Chapter 1201: Chapter 1201 County Magistrate

The Princess Consort Pu saw this and couldn’t help but cover her face and cry out in pain, sobbing as she said, "My poor daughter, I haven’t seen you for a month, how did you become so haggard? What inhumane torture have you gone through?"

Prince Pu saw this and also flared up, grabbing Situ Yongjie’s collar tightly, gritting his teeth and accusing: "How did you torture my daughter to this state? What exactly did you do to her?"

Situ Yongjie was held tightly by Prince Pu, feeling a bit breathless.

Situtu Xueer saw this and immediately stepped forward to try to rescue her father.

Prince Pu had already suspected her of killing Auntie Tang, and an evil thought suddenly arose in his heart. Taking advantage of Situ Yongjie’s struggle, he gathered all his strength in his hand and, pretending it was unintentional, struck fiercely at Xuexue’s head.

This move by Prince Pu was indeed vicious. If it hit, Situtu Xueer would undoubtedly die.

Feeling a strong wind coming from her head, Xuexue became alert and leaned back to avoid Prince Pu’s sneak attack.

Since Prince Pu was intent on killing Situtu Xueer, he naturally let go of Situ Yongjie.

Situ Yongjie, now free, became furiously angry towards Prince Pu: "Father-in-law, if it weren’t for the fact that you’ve lost a daughter, I would go to The Emperor to accuse you of attempted murder for your behavior today."

In a moment of urgent crisis, Xuexue displayed her skill in front of everyone, secretly surprising Prince Pu. This dead girl, who knew she was a martial world expert, made him even more convinced that Xuexue was the culprit who had killed his daughter.

Prince Pu acted shamelessly: "Fine, go ahead and accuse! I also want The Emperor to judge. My daughter was in her prime, how could she just die without any reason in your General’s Mansion? If I don’t get an explanation, none of you will have peace."

Regarding Prince Pu’s earlier attempt to harm her, Xuexue’s eyes flickered for a moment, thinking, this old scoundrel has such a sinister heart. If she had been struck earlier, her death would have been in vain.

Indeed, even if Xuexue had been unfortunately killed, people would just say that Prince Pu, having lost his beloved daughter, accidentally killed her in his grief.

Thus, Prince Pu’s strike was truly vicious.

Xuexue stepped forward, grabbing Situ Yongjie’s arm gently: "Father, Auntie just passed away; it’s inevitable that the Prince is emotional. You are a magnanimous person, don’t argue with him."

Situ Yongjie felt frustrated: "You’re such a silly girl, he almost killed you just now and you’re still speaking for him."

"Isn’t your daughter alright?"

"You have a good heart, but others may not appreciate it."

This brought a round of discussions among those who came to pay respects...

"Prince Pu is also, no matter how sad he is, he can’t vent his anger on the young lady, this is a matter of life and death!"

"Didn’t you hear? The Prince suspects the young lady killed Auntie Tang and wanted to take this opportunity for revenge."

"That’s impossible, the young lady is so stunningly beautiful, how could she do such a thing, there must be some misunderstanding." A noble young man, impressed by Xuexue’s beauty, couldn’t help but speak for her.

"Who knows! Behind the gates of powerful families, there’s always a lot of dirty business that can’t be exposed."

"Impossible, the young lady just returned from the countryside; she probably doesn’t understand the twists and turns of wealthy families." The noble young man firmly believed Xuexue was innocent.

Prince Pu listened, his anger growing, his face darkening.

It seemed not only did he lose a daughter, he also lost his reputation, while the wrongdoer remained at large, it was simply unjust.
