"Oh? Why do you say that?"
"That wretched girl has a malicious mind. Isn’t it her fault that the General abandoned us and went into the War Prince’s Mansion? Fourth Prince, you have no idea how difficult it is to be a stepmother. No matter how well I behave, in the Eldest Miss’s eyes, I am just the wicked woman who stole her father."
Auntie Tang was almost in tears, looking utterly pitiful.
The people around sighed repeatedly, "Yes! It’s really hard to be soone’s concubine. Look at the Eldest Miss’s deanor just now; she kicked the Second Miss off the carriage with one foot. So arrogant and domineering, and the General didn’t care at all, just left them behind and walked away. It’s too much."
Everyone was talking animatedly.
It seed very real.
The Fourth Prince, feeling quite sympathetic towards Situtu Qinger, said, "I intend to visit the War Prince’s Mansion, co along with ."
Auntie Tang was overjoyed to hear this, "Very well, thank you, Fourth Prince."
Auntie Tang and her daughters followed the Fourth Prince, just as they were about to enter the War Prince’s Mansion.
Situ Yongjie erged, supporting the Old Madam, with Situ Xuexue following behind.
Seeing the Fourth Prince, they quickly saluted, "Greetings to the Fourth Prince."
"Hmm!"
The Fourth Prince glanced at Xuexue behind him, even though he was displeased with how Situ Yongjie had abandoned Auntie Tang and her daughters at the door, he had his own motives and only replied indifferently.
"Is General Situ preparing to return to the mansion?"
"Yes! After reporting to the Prince, we’re about to head back!"
"Ah, the General truly manages both official and personal affairs without delay, coming to report duty and bringing the family along." The Fourth Prince’s words carried an ambiguous aning.
Situ Yongjie, a straightforward military man, lacked such intricate thoughts, his face was covered with smiles: "Hehe...! Hasn’t the Prince fallen ill? I brought my family along to visit him."
"The General truly has a heart."
"Indeed, the Prince has labored for the Wei Country, exhausting himself. It’s only proper for us to co visit."
"..."
This statent left the Fourth Prince choked up, and he couldn’t help but feel a little irritated, though he didn’t show it on the surface.
Situ Yongjie cupped his hands, "If there’s nothing else, I shall take my leave."
"Hmm!"
No matter how displeased he was, the Fourth Prince held back, because Situ Yongjie had military power, albeit not much, but he would need to rely on him in the future, so he couldn’t afford to offend him.
Just as they were about to walk past,
the Fourth Prince stopped Xuexue behind him, "Eldest Miss, how have you been lately?"
Xuexue stopped in her tracks, suppressing the hatred in her heart, and replied indifferently, "Quite well, thank you for your concern, Fourth Prince."
"Tomorrow, I’ll have soone send so fruits from the Western Regions to the General’s Mansion for the Eldest Miss to taste," the Fourth Prince said, looking at Xuexue with affectionate eyes.
This scumbag, he wouldn’t be attentive to her without reason.
His main aim was to capture the General’s Mansion, with the best excuse being to target her, the Eldest Legitimate Daughter.
"Xuexue thanks the Fourth Prince," Xuexue said neither humbly nor arrogantly, and without turning her head, she went after Situ Yongjie.
Following behind the Fourth Prince, Situtu Qinger felt very displeased seeing the Fourth Prince conversing with Xuexue: "Auntie, look at her...!"
The daughter’s temperant wasn’t steady at all, and Auntie Tang gently tugged at her, shaking her head without a word.
aning that the Fourth Prince was still there! She needed to mind her manners and avoid leaving a bad impression on him.
"Hmph!"
Situtu Qinger pouted and stomped her foot hard, looking very unwilling.
