Su Yingxue found him noisy, so she fed him some calming medicine, allowing him to fall asleep first.
Upon hearing of her return, Saint Ruan promptly made his way over. “Hey, aren’t you planning to perform surgery on your Father? Look at his confused state, he won’t last much longer. If this continues, won’t Your Highness be in trouble?”
Saint Ruan raised his eyebrows.
He glanced at Chu Yihan, who sat composed not too far away.
Why else would they say Chu Yihan was impressive?
It was one thing to be impolite in front of the emperor, but in the Capital Prefecture, he had effortlessly abducted prisoners and guarded them firmly.
Even if his brother Chu Mingyuan wanted to act similarly, he would have to consider the opinions of the court officials, right?
Su Yingxue sat beside Chu Yihan, her brows never relaxing.
Chu Yihan gently caressed her cold hand, his voice protective. “If you’re uncertain, I’ll ask Saint Ruan to treat your father.”
“Me? I don’t know how to perform surgery. 1 can’t do it!” Saint Ruan exclaimed.
Chu Yihan’s gaze was cold. “If you can’t cure him, it will be your life on the line.”
Saint Ruan was speechless.
He had never encountered such a shameless person in his seventy years of life!
“What the heck! Your woman’s life matters, but my life doesn’t, huh? Annoying!” Saint Ruan thought to himself.
But he was utterly helpless. He had ventured into this place, surrounded by Chu Yihan’s men. He couldn’t escape.
Saint Ruan was helpless. “If you can’t do it, bring out your surgical tools.”
He rubbed his hands. “But let me clarify first, twenty years ago, 1 only dissected a rabbit with your mother. I’ve never dissected a person. If someone dies, you’re not allowed to treat me as a patricide!”
Whether he lived or died, he didn’t want this little girl to hold a grudge against him!
Su Yingxue’s expression darkened, yet she remained silent.
It wasn’t that she didn’t dare, she was waiting.
She was waiting for someone.
Or rather, she was waiting for his scent.
The mysterious man wore a black hat, yet was familiar with her mother and always referred to her as a child.
“Your Highness, Liang Jin is here.”
Outside the door, Mo Qi reported.
Chu Yihan replied calmly, “Tell him that I am bringing people to treat Marquis Su. If he wants to wait, he is not allowed to disturb me.”
Mo Qi conveyed the message, causing Liang Jin to feel a headache coming on. “It’s fine if Your Highness wants to treat Marquis, but why must you kidnap the prisoners from the prison?”
He couldn’t care less about Chu Yihan’s actions, but the person he kidnapped was his prisoner!
Mo Qi knew Liang Jin was helpless, but he straightforwardly told him, “No one can interfere with the way Your Highness does things. If Lord Liang wants to take her away, you can give it a try.”
Mo Qi gestured for Liang Jin to look behind him.
Liang Jin turned around. Outside the courtyard, besides Chu Yihan’s elite soldiers, there were also his Shadow Guards.
Legend had it that Chu Yihan’s Shadow Guards were iron-willed men, capable of claiming enemy generals’ heads on the battlefield and intimidating court officials. To Chu Yihan’s enemies, they were nightmarish.
Even the emperor feared their deployment by Chu Yihan.
Liang Jin was furious, yet he could only wait in the courtyard.
After a while, Su Yingxue came out of her room and started moving around the Marquis’s Manor alone.
Zi Wei guarded her side worriedly. Su Yingxue gestured for him to leave.
Zi Wei vanished immediately.
Only when she was alone did Su Yingxue finally feel a sense of relief.
However, she didn’t encounter the black-cloaked man she was waiting for. Instead, she saw Lan Ling, who had brought the Imperial Guards and the palace guards.
When Lan Ling saw her, a trace of emotion quickly flashed across his eyes. He immediately attacked her..
