Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290: Defying Imperial Law

Regarding the Old Madam’s exaggerated expression.

Usually, everyone just thought she was indulging her only grandson and didn’t think much of it. But now, Situ Zhi has committed a grave mistake, already killed someone, and it’s the young daughter of the Minister of War. Yet, the Old Madam not only doesn’t blame him but also worries about the murderer’s well-being?

Her indulgence has gone too far, it’s simply outrageous, no wonder the Young Master of the General’s Mansion turned out this way, it turns out there’s a root cause for all this.

Situ Zhi’s body was still being firmly held down by several servants from the Ministerial Mansion, unable to move. Seeing the Old Madam come in, he immediately shouted, "Grandmother, grandmother, save me quickly, they want to kill me."

"Damn it, who dares to kill my grandson, I’ll fight with them," the Old Madam rushed into the room nimbly, raised her cane, and started beating the servants holding down Situ Zhi while cursing, "Damn it, you dog servants, by what right do you treat my grandson like this, let go, let go of him now."

The opposing party was the Old Madam of the mansion, and she was of advanced age. They really feared accidentally harming her, resulting in another life lost.

The servants dared not act recklessly and quickly stepped back, after all, His Excellency the Minister was here, surely the murderer couldn’t escape.

The Old Madam valiantly rescued Situ Zhi, pulled him over for a full body check, and with a pained expression said, "Zhizhi, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Did they hurt you?"

Seeing the Old Madam, Situ Zhi appeared to seize a lifeline and became aggrieved again, his little mouth pouting high, "Grandmother, they bullied me and wanted to kill me. You must avenge your grandson quickly."

After speaking, his little hand pointed at His Excellency the Minister, "It’s this old geezer, he nearly chopped me to death with a knife earlier. If it weren’t for father stopping him, grandmother, you wouldn’t be able to see your grandson anymore."

After saying that, he began crying loudly.

It was as if he were a different person from the fierce spirit when he killed someone earlier.

Seeing her grandson so aggrieved, the Old Madam’s heart ached immensely. She lifted her gaze and shot a fierce glance at His Excellency the Minister, "Who are you? Coming to our house to bully people, do you really think there’s no one in the General’s Mansion?"

The Old Madam had been hiding in the courtyard offering prayers and chanting scriptures recently, not coming out, so naturally, she was unaware that His Excellency the Minister had visited the mansion today to discuss official matters with Situ Yongjie.

His Excellency the Minister, having just lost his beloved daughter, was in a state of immense grief and anger.

Wasn’t the Old Madam making things worse?

Seeing the situation, Situ Yongjie hurriedly stepped forward and stopped the Old Madam in a low voice, saying, "Mother, please go back to the courtyard first, don’t create more chaos here."

"What chaos? They’ve come to our door to bully us, Jiejie, you’re being too cowardly. How can you let others bully us so easily!"

Finally, she glared fiercely at His Excellency the Minister and said with a harsh tone, "Daring to kill my grandson, I see you’re tired of living."

The Old Madam stormed in and fired off a flurry of words.

In a state of mourning, His Excellency the Minister could not take it anymore and roared at the Old Madam, "You unreasonable old woman! Clearly, your grandson killed my daughter, yet you dare holler here. Does the General’s Mansion disregard the imperial law like this?"

"Oh my, oh my! You little bastard, how dare you curse at me." The Old Madam’s eyes widened as she tried to see who this person was that dared to come to the General’s Mansion to cause trouble and even wished to kill her grandson?

The dignified Minister of War actually gets called a little bastard by an old woman?

Situ Yongjie broke out in a cold sweat, knowing that Situ Zhi had already done wrong by killing someone’s daughter. Now, the Old Madam was being so arrogant, even calling the man a little bastard.
