Chapter 1320: Creepy
"Truly a useless thing."
The Emperor couldn’t help but say.
Celestial Master Zhang was momentarily stunned, thinking the Emperor was scolding him, and quickly said, "Calm your anger, Your Majesty. I have carefully observed that although Miss Situ has returned from the countryside, her behavior and demeanor are even more refined than a noble lady’s, unlike a rural girl."
"Perhaps the General once sent someone to train her."
"No, it’s an innate noble demeanor, definitely not something recently trained," Celestial Master Zhang recalled his observations of Situ Xuexue over recent days.
"What do you mean, Celestial Master?"
"Your Majesty, this girl is likely extraordinary."
"What makes you say that?" The Emperor expressed disbelief. How could a delicate girl who had wandered among commoners for over a decade be extraordinary? Moreover, he had previously heard from Situ Yongjie that this daughter had suffered hardship in the countryside, having difficulty even securing three meals a day.
One could imagine how arduous Situ Xuexue’s life had been.
If so, where does Celestial Master Zhang’s so-called "extraordinary" come from?
"Your Majesty, think about it, how could an ordinary rural girl boldly ride a tiger into the Capital? Moreover, her behavior in the Capital doesn’t resemble that of a rural girl."
Celestial Master Zhang elaborated, "I heard that after she returned to the Capital, she suffered multiple sabotages by Auntie Tang, yet in the end, it was Auntie Tang who suffered. If she were truly an ordinary rural girl, she might have died today instead of Auntie Tang."
