Chapter 763: Chapter 763 Reluctantly Chapter 763: Chapter 763 Reluctantly At this moment, Prince Pu ran out screaming, with his mouth awkwardly howling, “Princess Consort, Princess Consort.”
The large tiger turned around proudly, stepping back towards the General’s Mansion step by step.
Prince Pu didn’t dare to provoke it, and carefully skirted around it, rushing out of the General’s Mansion only to see a large crowd gathered at the entrance, pointing and speculating about something.
He forcefully pushed through the crowd and indeed saw Princess Consort Pu lying on the ground with her eyes tightly closed.
He quickly went up to her, cradled her in his arms, and began to slap her cheeks, calling out, “Princess Consort, Princess Consort, what’s wrong with you?”
After being slapped a few times, Princess Consort Pu opened her eyes.
Suddenly, she shrieked, “A tiger, a tiger, I was so scared, Prince, there was a tiger.” Saying so, she threw her arms around Prince Pu and started bawling loudly.
“Princess Consort, don’t cry, it’s okay now, let’s go back to our mansion,” Prince Pu helped her up from the ground and dusted off the dirt and debris from her clothes.
It was only then that the onlookers realized they were Prince Pu and his wife.
But weren’t they the in-laws of General Situ?
How did they end up being thrown out of the General’s Mansion by a tiger, what exactly happened?
“Prince, Princess Consort, what in the world is going on with you two? How did you get thrown out?” asked some of the bolder onlookers.
Prince Pu didn’t really know what to say.
He couldn’t very well admit that they came to look for trouble and ended up being thrown out by the tiger summoned by Xuexue.
“What could be the problem? Didn’t you all see it? The Eldest Legitimate Daughter of the General’s Mansion unleashed a ferocious tiger. Look at me, I almost got eaten by the tiger. The General’s Mansion is getting more dangerous by the day. I advise you, don’t get too close to the General’s Mansion, be careful of that tiger, lest it eats you and you regret it too late,” even though Princess Consort Pu had just been dragged out by the tiger and was still shaken, she was still unrelenting in her speech, vowing not to stop until she had completely ruined Xuexue’s reputation.
All at once, the crowd was in an uproar, saying in unison, “The Eldest Legitimate Daughter of the General’s Mansion is really out of line. No matter what, you two are her elders, how could she treat you ?”
“Exactly, she takes advantage of General Situ’s guilt towards her and acts tyrannical and unbridled in the mansion. She bullied me today, and you all saw it with your own eyes. My poor daughter is doomed. She has slaved away for the General’s Mansion for over a decade, and in the end, she’s worse off than the Eldest Legitimate Daughter who has just returned to the mansion, being bullied by her every day and living a life worse than that of pigs and dogs, it’s so pitiful,”
In the crowd, some people expressed disbelief: “Princess Consort Pu, the things you’re saying are impossible.”
Princess Consort Pu: “How is it impossible?”
Passerby: “Isn’t Lady Tang in charge of the General’s Mansion’s finances? If there’s any bullying going on, it’s your daughter bullying the Eldest Legitimate Daughter, isn’t it?”
Princess Consort Pu: “Not anymore, ever since the Eldest Legitimate Daughter returned, my daughter’s status in the General’s Mansion has plummeted. That little cheap person is quite remarkable, knows how to act pitiful. General Situ is a soft-hearted man. Seeing her so miserable, of course, he will take extra care of her, thus he took back the authority from my daughter.”
“Enough, enough, let’s not talk anymore and quickly return to our mansion,” Prince Pu said, pulling Princess Consort Pu away.
Princess Consort Pu had just struck Mo Xiaoqiang.
He was afraid Xuexue would come out and demand an explanation from them.
Of all the stratagems, retreat is the best option. If this matter escalated and reached The Emperor, in the end, the one to suffer would be him, especially since he had no power or influence and was merely pretending to be on familiar terms with The Emperor to get by.
Despite Princess Consort Pu hating Xuexue to the bone, she was also wary of the large tiger by her side. Persuaded by Prince Pu, albeit reluctantly, she climbed into the carriage.
