She feared that when she wasn’t around, Chu Yihan might come to retrieve the sword. So, she instructed Zhilan that she should only reveal her whereabouts if Chu Yihan specifically inquired about her.
Princess Sheng Ping was also waiting for Su Yingxue. There were several dishes laid out on her table, and when Su Yingxue arrived, she had just finished her meal.
Sheng Ping stood up and greeted her with a smile.
Su Yingxue raised her hand to halt her. “Princess, there’s no need for formalities between us. Are you satisfied with the Third Prince’s fate today?”
Lian’er knelt and kowtowed to Su Yingxue, still sobbing. “Thank you, Miss Su, for seeking justice for our princess. Our princess ate a bit more for dinner tonight.”
Su Yingxue nodded. “In that case, Princess, can you tell me now?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSheng Ping invited her to sit by the bedside for their conversation.
As they faced each other, Sheng Ping couldn’t help but admire Su Yingxue’s dignified demeanor despite her injuries. She was prepared to share everything she knew.
“Dr. Su’s mother was likely my mother’s best friend before they turned ten. When I was young, my mother introduced her friends to me one by one. The only one missing was the person who created the cloud patterns with her.”
“So, you mean my mother and your mother haven’t seen each other since they were ten?” Su Yingxue’s eyes narrowed, and she was filled with perplexity.
“Yes, and my mother’s friend has a unique identity, unlike other nobles in the Yue Kingdom. She is not from the Yue Kingdom,” Sheng Ping emphasized.
Su Yingxue stood up abruptly. “If she’s not from Yue Kingdom, what is her identity?”
“She is the grand…”
“Princess!”
Lian’er suddenly interrupted her with a joyful expression, rushing in and panting. “Princess, Ninth… Ninth Prince has arrived!”
Sheng Ping’s heart trembled, and she instinctively checked her appearance and attire.
She went out to welcome Chu Yihan, but Chu Yihan walked past her and approached Su Yingxue, holding her hand as he asked, “Why are you here?”
Su Yingxue was still lost in her thoughts about her mother’s background, but with Chu Yihan’s arrival, she changed the subject. “I’m here to check on the princess and see how she’s recovering.”
Sheng Ping echoed her with a soft hum.
“Are you finished?” Chu Yihan inquired.
Su Yingxue confirmed that she had completed her examination, and Chu Yihan took her away.
Throughout their encounter, he never glanced at Sheng Ping.
However, Sheng Ping followed them and watched as Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue walked away side by side until their figures disappeared.
On the way, Chu Yihan’s gaze was filled with concern. “Mo Qi mentioned that you went to the stream to clean your sword. 1 went to investigate and found signs of an unresolved fight. Do you know what happened?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSu Yingxue shook her head reflexively. “Nothing happened.”
She had yet to figure out how to disclose her conflict with Hong Lian to Chu Yihan. After ail, Hong Lian sought her mother’s letter, and she had directly taken away Hong Lian’s best assassin, which could be considered a significant feud.
Furthermore, she still didn’t know the nature of Chu Yihan’s relationship with Hong Lian.
She couldn’t speak hastily.
“Why are you injured?” Chu Yihan’s brows furrowed deeply.
“I was rolling around in the forest this afternoon. After 1 returned, I bandaged myself up. It’s nothing,” Su Yingxue offered a well-intentioned white lie.
She truly hadn’t meant to deceive Chu Yihan.
She simply didn’t want him to worry.
However, when she noticed that he wasn’t leading them back to their residence, she inquired, “Where are you taking me?”
“We’re going to the Martial Virtue Hall. The empress suspects that Chu Xiuwen’s injury might be related to you and wants to conduct an investigation..”
