Situ Wei was the concubine-born daughter of the Right Grand Chancellor's residence, which they have met on the day Huo Hong Ying invited QingWu and Madam Mu to visit to Heng Lu Mountain for the Horseback ridding gathering a few days ago.
Originally, the Right Grand Chancellor's wife intended for her to replace the Ping'An County Princess in marrying into the Eastern Palace. However, the situation changed, and now the Ping'An County Princess herself is to marry into the Eastern Palace. Huo Hong Ying had mentioned this name during her last visit to the Manor, and Little Yulang happened to overhear it at the time.
Upon hearing the news of Situ Wei's death, Madam Mu was unsurprised; she merely sighed.
"Madam Mu, you don't seem surprised. Did you already know about this?"
Huo Hong Ying shook her head as she spoke. "The Right Grand Chancellor's residence claimed that Situ Wei died of a grave illness, but I think it's not that simple."
