Chapter 1211: Chapter 1211 Angry

"Steward, look, we’re almost at the city gates, how can we turn back at this time? Besides, if we bring Auntie’s body back, Father will surely be furious."

"The Prince said everything is up to him, so Second Miss can rest assured."

Situ Qinger once thought that Prince Pu, who could approach the Emperor, was omnipotent. But ever since the times she asked him to deal with Xuexue and saw him fail each time, she has gradually become disappointed with him. However, now that Auntie Tang is dead, Prince Pu is still their only reliance.

"Even if we bring Auntie’s body back to the mansion, it won’t be long before it starts to stink, and that won’t be good!"

"The Prince said, just stay for two more days and that’ll do."

"Why wait two days?"

"The Prince specifically sent someone to the Imperial Palace, earnestly pleading with the Emperor to request the most skilled Imperial Physician to come and examine Auntie Tang again, to see if she was murdered."

"Do we even need to say? Auntie was in such good health normally and suddenly died, surely it’s that little cheap person Xuexue who killed her." Situ Qinger is convinced that her mother’s death isn’t simple and definitely has something to do with Situ Xuexue, just lacking evidence.

"Since Second Miss understands this truth, then all the more reason not to bury Auntie yet."

"This...!"

"Second Miss, don’t hesitate! Just follow the Prince’s orders."

Because Situ Qinger paused ahead, the entire funeral procession came to a halt at the city gates.

There are already many people coming and going at the city gates daily, and now the whole area is jammed.

The people entering the city can’t get in, and those leaving can’t get out.

The funeral procession bears the General’s Mansion’s flag.

The crowd at the city gates grows larger and larger.

The soldiers guarding the gates are anxious but don’t dare say anything.

After all, General Situ in Moli Country is a famous military general. Although he serves under War Prince, he holds his own military power. It’s said that even the War Prince can’t control his troops.

Looking around at the growing crowd.

The steward is also a bit anxious: "Second Miss, make up your mind quickly."

Being stuck at the city gates isn’t a solution either.

Situ Qinger thought for a while, Auntie’s death can’t be for nothing. To defeat Situ Xuexue, she secretly gritted her teeth and made a major decision: "Alright, back to the mansion."

The steward was quite pleased upon hearing this: "I’ll go back right away and report this to the Prince. Second Miss, be patient with General Situ, and do avoid conflict with him."

"I understand."

The steward bid farewell and turned his horse to head back to Prince Pu’s Mansion.

"Second Sis, are we really going back to the mansion?" Situ Dieer and several siblings immediately gathered around. Although they usually seem both tough and smart, in critical times they become panic-stricken.

Situ Qinger glanced around at the townspeople pointing and talking about their funeral procession, then gritted her teeth: "Return."

"Is this really okay?"

Situ Dieer grew worried, never having heard of a funeral procession turning back. Deceased matters are very ominous; not only would it upset Father, but even the Old Madam won’t approve.

"Second Sis, with Auntie dead, it’s best to bury her early to rest in peace. Let’s not make a fuss, or Auntie won’t forgive us from the heavens." Situ Yu, being young, is also lost and scared in such situations.

"What are you talking about? There’s no such thing as ghosts! If there were ghosts, that little cheap person Xuexue wouldn’t be alive today; she would’ve been killed by Auntie’s ghosts last night." Situ Qinger dismissed it.
