"What?"

Situtu Qinger was extremely shocked; today His Excellency the Minister brought his young daughter to the General’s Mansion to discuss business with her father, she knew about that. However, the Minister’s daughter had always been with His Excellency the Minister, so how could she have been killed by Zhizhi? Situtu Qinger was utterly baffled.

"What’s going on? Speak and let me hear it."

The maid recounted the events to Situtu Qinger.

It turned out that at noon time, Situ Zhi had just come out from the Old Madam’s place and was passing by Situ Yongjie’s courtyard when he encountered the Minister’s daughter playing at the entrance.

An eight or nine-year-old little girl, dressed very prettily, surrounded by more than ten servants. She was holding a small embroidered ball, laughing and playing all by herself.

This scene deeply attracted Situ Zhi, possibly because they were of the same age. Situ Zhi stopped and walked over.

After a chat, he brought the little girl back to his own courtyard.

Originally, there were more than ten servants by her side, enough to protect her. But after returning to the courtyard, Situ Zhi found an excuse to block the ten-plus servants outside, bringing only the little girl inside.

Not even two hours had passed when suddenly, they heard loud noises and chaos inside.

The more than ten servants guarding the door sensed something was wrong and hurriedly crashed the door and rushed inside...

The main hall was in a complete mess; Situ Zhi seemed insane, holding a knife and fiercely chopping at the little girl lying motionless on the ground, blood splattered all over his face and clothes.

Other maids in the courtyard screamed in shock but dared not rush forward to stop him, fearing they would become the next victim.

The ten-plus servants rushed in and saw their little Miss had been hacked into mincemeat, how outrageous!

They hurriedly went to stop Situ Zhi and immediately sent someone to notify His Excellency the Minister.

Situ Zhi’s personal maid, seeing the Little Young Master had caused a catastrophic disaster, was paralyzed with fear. In her panic, she darted off to the Peacock Court to find Situtu Qinger.

Unexpectedly, just as she entered, the Second Miss hurled a teacup at her without a word, leaving her with a bloody head. The maid felt deeply aggrieved, lamenting her miserable fate. It was bad enough that the Little Young Master was violent, and now even the Second Miss was like this.

After hearing, Situtu Qinger felt that this matter was of great consequence; the Minister of War was under the War Prince and a significant figure in the court. His daughter dying in the General’s Mansion would certainly not be taken lightly.

After some thought, she immediately dispatched a maid to notify the Old Madam to quickly devise a plan to save Situ Zhi. She also hurriedly took servants with her to inspect, hoping His Excellency the Minister wouldn’t kill Situ Zhi in his rage.

When Situ Yongjie and the Minister arrived, the frenzied Situ Zhi had already been subdued by the servants.

Everything in the main hall was shattered, showing evidence of a fierce battle just now.

And the little girl’s corpse lying on the ground was gruesome beyond words, her clothes on her back completely hacked up, blood staining the entire main hall.

His Excellency the Minister, seeing his lively daughter now lying on the ground mangled, instantly felt a buzzing in his head, utterly blank...

"Mei Hua, Mei Hua." He staggered over to his daughter’s side, his hands trembling as he gently turned her small body over.
