Prince Pu's Mansion.
Auntie Tang, accompanied by her personal maid, walked straight in. She searched around the mansion but couldn't find Prince Pu or Princess Consort Pu. Typically at this hour, the Princess Consort would either be enjoying the flowers in the garden or basking in the sun.

Upon hearing her question, the servants lowered their heads and began stuttering, "Well… um… that…"
It was evident they wanted to speak but didn't dare, their eyes shifting constantly.
Auntie Tang grew anxious at once and pressed further, "Has something happened in the mansion?"
Several maids kept their heads down and remained silent.
