The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 13

“Father, if searching the courtyard can prove my innocence, I am willing! It’s just that searching my courtyard in the middle of the night, and if word gets out, my reputation…” Su Yurou cried weakly.

Su Dingheng had some misgivings in his heart. If word of the courtyard search got out, it would affect Su Yurou’s reputation.

“Father, this servant girl must be lying. I already said that I would give it to Yurou, so why would she send someone to steal it? Besides, wasn’t she slandering her for ambushing people in my yard to spy on me? This is too unfair to Yurou!

“In my opinion, it’s better to inform His Highness and ask him to help with the search,” Su Yingxue defended Su Yurou.

The moment she mentioned Chu Yihan, Su Dingheng panicked. “We must not alert His Highness about this! Let’s search the courtyard. Men, go to Sunset Court!”

He brought his men and rushed to Sunset Court. He even patted Su Yurou’s hand and comforted her, “Rou’er, don’t worry. Father will definitely prove your innocence.”

Su Yurou nodded her head in gratitude, but she was extremely anxious in her heart. She glared at Su Yingxue fiercely.

Su Yingxue had an innocent look on her face as if she did not know what she had done wrong.

Su Hao walked beside Su Yingxue and accompanied her. “Don’t worry, I will definitely find the ginseng.”

“Okay, thank you, brother!” Su Yingxue’s heart felt warm.

Su Yurou thought to herself that she definitely couldn’t let them search the courtyard. Thus, before she reached the courtyard’s entrance, she pretended to faint.

“Rou’er, what’s wrong?” Su Dingheng’s heart ached as he supported her.

Seeing that she had fainted, Su Dingheng immediately called for a doctor to treat her.

Su Yingxue walked forward. “Father, let me take a look.”

“You?” Su Dingheng was surprised. “What do you know?”

When he saw Su Yingxue take out three silver needles to stab Su Yurou, he immediately stopped her. “Stop! Don’t hurt Rou’er!”

“Father, I have a rough understanding of medicine. I just need a few needles and Yurou will wake up.” Su Yingxue’s expression was indifferent.

“This… Why didn’t I know that you knew medicine!”

Su Dingheng trembled with worry.

“Father, it was all thanks to my younger sister’s medicine that my injuries healed so quickly.”

Su Dingheng was slightly relieved when he heard Su Hao say that.

Su Yingxue secretly curled her lips and stabbed Su Yurou’s philtrum, Hegu, and Tianzong acupoints. Su Yurou was pretending to faint, but when she stabbed these three major acupoints, she immediately jumped up and screamed, “Ah! It hurts!”

Her loud voice startled Su Dingheng. “Rou’er, you…”

“Father, Yurou is fine.” Su Yingxue patted Su Yurou.

Su Yurou gritted her teeth and glared at her.

She had stabbed her on purpose!

And she was in so much pain!

Su Yingxue had an indifferent expression as she kept the needles as if she did not care about anything.

She and Su Yurou stood at the side. Su Yurou was so anxious that she was sweating profusely. She saw that Su Hao’s men had found three ginseng and was about to faint again.

However, Su Yingxue smiled faintly, “Don’t be afraid. With my medical skills, I won’t let you not wake up.”

“You…”

Su Yurou’s eyes were red. She recalled the intense pain from being stabbed by the needles and instantly felt fear.

Su Dingheng looked at the ginseng he found in disbelief. “This… Rou’er, what’s going on? Did you really order Yuan Xiang to do it?”

“Father, I didn’t! Even if I had the guts, I wouldn’t do that!” Su Yurou knelt on the floor with a thud, blood seeping out of her knees.

Su Dingheng did not believe it either. He glared at Yuan Xiang. “How dare you steal the Eldest Young Miss’s ginseng and slander the Second Young Miss!”

Yuan Xiang was covered in blood as she struggled weakly, “Marquis, I’m not lying. It really is the Second Young Miss!”

She looked at Su Yurou resentfully. She was clearly working for her, but Su Yurou watched her get beaten badly. She was too cruel!

“Father, if you don’t believe me, Rou’er will be at your disposal. Even if you want to chase me out of the Marquis’s Manor, I won’t dare to say anything!” Su Yurou’s delicate tears flowed down like a lotus flower that had been ravaged by the wind and rain.

Su Dingheng had always felt sorry for her. How could he bear to blame her at this moment?

However, today’s matter had involved a large number of people. His favoritism would inevitably cause people to gossip, so he could only find someone to die for Su Yurou.

He waved his hand and ordered, “Men, Yuan Xiang stole the ginseng and framed the Second Young Miss. Drag her away and beat her to death!”

Yuan Xiang fell heavily to the ground. She knew that Su Dingheng was biased, so she desperately crawled towards Su Yingxue and hugged her as she begged, “Eldest Young Miss, please save my life. I won’t do it again, I won’t do it again!”

Su Yingxue brushed her away with a cold gaze. “If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? You chose your own dead end.”

Su Yingxue’s words enlightened Yuan Xiang. If she had been a servant girl in Su Yingxue’s courtyard, why would her life be in danger?

She was working for Su Yurou, but she was using her to pay for her life!

Yuan Xiang’s eyes were filled with despair as she was beaten to death in public.

In order to regain the impression of standing in Su Dingheng’s heart, Su Yurou cried, “Daddy, although Yuan Xiang slandered me, the ginseng was found in my courtyard. I have a responsibility. Daddy, please punish me severely!”

Su Dingheng pursed his lips tightly. “You can’t be blamed for this. It’s all that wretched girl Yuan Xiang’s fault!”

Afraid that Su Yingxue would take it out on her, Su Dingheng even specially instructed Su Yingxue, “Yingxue, your sister was wrongly accused in this matter. Yuan Xiang was the one who stole the ginseng. You are not allowed to vent your anger on her!”

Su Yingxue sneered in her heart. It was such an obvious result, yet she was still the one who had wronged Su Yurou?

Forget it.

Her father had never been able to distinguish right from wrong, so she did not expect him to punish Su Yurou.

She said, “Of course, I won’t blame my younger sister, but she was shocked and fainted today. I’m afraid she needs to recuperate well. Father, why don’t you let her recuperate in the courtyard for a month and not go out? This way, tonight’s incident won’t spread and damage her reputation.”

Su Dingheng stroked his beard and nodded. “That’s good too.”

He turned around and instructed Su Yurou, “Rou’er, stay in the courtyard for the next month. Don’t come out and walk around.”

“Yes, I will remember Daddy and sister’s words.” She agreed on the surface, but in her heart, she wanted to tear Su Yingxue into pieces!

She was locked up for a month just like that!

Her gaze fell on the three ginsengs. Her heart ached because Su Yingxue was going to take them back. She originally wanted to ask for one.

However, Su Yingxue rushed to say, “Father, although the ginseng has been found, it’s hard to guard against thieves in the Marquis’s Manor. To prevent it from being lost again, it’s better to let brother keep it first.”

“Well… I’ll keep it. Who would dare to touch my things!” Su Dingheng immediately stopped him. He coveted this ginseng very much, so how could he bear to let someone else take it away?

“Older Brother is strict in managing the army. The servants in the courtyard are also from the army. They will definitely not embezzle. His Highness will definitely be at ease if he knows that the ginseng is with Older Brother. However, if His Highness knows about tonight’s matter…”

Su Yingxue’s small face was filled with worry.

Su Dingheng could already imagine Chu Yihan’s furious expression.

He trembled and waved his hand in frustration. “Forget it! Let Hao’er keep it!”

After the ruckus tonight, he didn’t get anything out of it and returned to his room in anger.
