BXBX NOVEL Chapter 632 - 632: Her Heart Ached For Chu Yihan
Su Yingxue felt Xiao Yu’s pulse and sensed that he was still breathing, albeit having suffered serious internal injuries. After administering acupuncture and attending to him for a while, his breathing finally stabilized. When he regained consciousness and could swallow, she gave him another bowl of medicine.
Xiao Yu drank it and fell asleep, his life finally secured.
Noble Consort Xiao kept vigil beside Xiao Yu, and upon seeing a hint of color returning to his pale face, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Yingxue reassured her, “Noble Consort, rest assured. Young Master Xiao’s life is out of danger. However, his body is weak and will require some time for recuperation.”
Noble Consort Xiao let out a long sigh. “Surviving the Ninth Prince’s attack is already a stroke of luck!”
A trace of ruthlessness flickered in her eyes. She wasn’t going to overlook Chu Yihan’s assault on Xiao Yu.
Taking the initiative, Su Yingxue admitted her mistake, “Noble Consort, this was my fault. I was careless, leading to Your Highness’s anger. I assure you, Noble Consort, 1 will spare no effort to heal Young Master Xiao. I hope you won’t hold Your Highness accountable.”
Among the harem members, the strongest wasn’t the empress, but Noble Consort Xiao.
Chu Yihan had crossed the empress, so Su Yingxue had no intention of apologizing.
However, Noble Consort Xiao was different. As an Imperial Consort backed by the wealthy Xiao family, her involvement in disputes was much more complicated than the empress’s.
Noble Consort Xiao’s eyes gleamed with determination. “Forget it. 1 intended only for you to enter the palace. It was the empress who deceitfully lured Yu’er into using my name. Rest assured, that account will be settled with her sooner or later!”
Noble Consort Xiao’s eyes flashed with a sharp light.
Noble Consort Xiao’s unexpected magnanimity surprised Su Yingxue.
Seeing Su Yingxue’s expression relax, Noble Consort Xiao narrowed her eyes and reminded her, “Although I can let this matter go with Ninth Prince, I can’t decide on Yu ‘er’s side. Moreover, Yu’ er’s illness is difficult to cure even after searching for famous doctors all over the world. If you take on this responsibility and can’t cure him, I won’t be the only one who will come looking for you to settle the score!”
Su Yingxue smiled. “Yes, i understand.”
Noble Consort Xiao had patted her today to tell her that she had never taken the empress’s scheming to heart. Now, she was merely strategizing to ensure that Su Yingxue would cure Xiao Yu.
She was an astute and intelligent individual.
Her current position was not without reason.
However, Su Yingxue was worried about Chu Yihan and wanted to leave the palace immediately to explain to him and calm his anger.
Noble Consort Xiao had assigned her a task to safely escort Xiao Yu to the Xiao family’s residence in Jiang Du City, the Qilin Garden.
Su Yingxue felt conflicted. “Why didn’t Noble Consort keep Young Master Xiao in the palace for recuperation?”
Noble Consort Xiao shook her head. “This palace belongs to the empress, and with its crowded and unclean environment, a single mishap could cost Yu’er’s life. The empress will not miss the chance to incite discord between the Xiao family and the Ninth Prince. You must take him out of the palace immediately.”
Su Yingxue’s expression turned serious as she acknowledged Noble Consort Xiao’s cautious and thorough nature.
However, if she were to send Xiao Yu to the Ninth Prince’s Mansion…
She feared that Chu Yihan would remain angry, causing her heart to ache.
“Mother, as I have no duties in the palace, why not let me escort cousin? Miss Su is also a young lady. What if the empress causes trouble halfway?”
Chu Jinling entered the main hall.
Su Yingxue hadn’t seen him for some time. Compared to his previous lively demeanor, he seemed to have become more stable..
