Chapter 714: He Would Never Let Down His Deep Feelings!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As the night grew darker, yellow leaves drifted from the branches, carrying a hint of melancholy and desolation. They fell to the ground, crumbling into ash. While they should have mirrored the loneliness, they were now cast into a festive light by the red lanterns.
Tonight, the Marquis’s Manor glowed with red lights, exuding an air of celebration.
With Su Qingzhi’s approval, Su Yingxue was now the awaited Princess Consort, a status both precious and enviable!
Su Han, assisting in the manor’s preparations, was especially attentive. She adorned the surroundings with red lanterns and arranged for a feast.
This evening’s banquet was in honor of Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue’s engagement.
The calm in Jiang Du City upon Chu Yihan’s departure from the palace suggested he had not acted out of line, even with the imperial seal in hand. He still regarded himself as the Ninth Prince, a fact that greatly pleased Su Qingzhi.
Even though Chu Mingyuan still occupied the dragon throne, in Su Qingzhi’s eyes, Chu Yihan was a more fitting and wiser ruler.
In the main hall, Su Han had already set up the banquet.
Su Qingzhi, seeing no sign of Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan, worriedly inquired,
” Where are Your Highness and Yingxue?”
“They’re in the medicine hut,” Su Han replied. “Your Highness is injured, and Yingxue is tending to him.”
Su Qingzhi nodded. “In that case, we shouldn’t rush them. Your Highness’s recovery is paramount.”
Chu Yihan had shown his sincerity and had already been acknowledged as a grandson-in-law. Su Qingzhi’s attitude toward him had changed, becoming more caring.
“Father, forgive me for speaking out, but even though the engagement has been agreed upon, how can we allow Yingxue to administer medicine to Your Highness? We cannot summon other physicians to the Marquis’s Manor, nor can we spare servants to attend to Your Highness?” Su Xinlan said.
Amidst the joyous atmosphere, there always had to be a spoilsport.
Su Xinlan’s words were venomous!
Her words caused a shift in everyone’s expressions.
According to etiquette, Chu Yihan’s actions today had shocked the court, enough to warrant execution!
But no one could touch him!
Furthermore, even though Su Yingxue was a fiancee, she shouldn’t be overly familiar. Administering medicine required disrobing and physical contact, a situation difficult to fathom.
“Aunt, besides being our Su family’s daughter and Your Highness’s fiancee, Yingxue is also an exceptional physician. Her administering medicine to Your Highness isn’t as a future Princess but as a doctor. What’s wrong with doctors doing their utmost to treat patients? Moreover, Your Highness is the God of War of our Great Cheng Dynasty, with a noble and prominent status. Are we to let him go without the skilled physician Yingxue, and instead, use a less capable one? Wouldn’t that be seen as neglecting Your Highness?”
With her eloquence as a former Regional Princess, Su Han could easily outdo Su Xinlan.
Her words not only dispelled any doubts about Su Yingxue but also served as a rebuke to Su Xinlan, showcasing what it meant to be considerate. Su Xinlan was simply causing trouble!
Su Xinlan felt aggrieved, glaring at Su Han.
That little wench!
Relying on her few years as a Regional Princess and some silver tongue, she dared to humiliate her aunt like this!
What a despicable person!
“Sister Han is right, she was indeed the former Yong’an County Princess Consort! She must have been just as articulate when she was in the Regional Prince’s Mansion with Madam Sheng and the Min Jia County Lord. That’s why they were exiled three thousand miles away, right?”
Beside Su Xinlan, Ye Zhenzhen stifled a laugh.
With just a few words, she exposed Su Han’s vulnerability, leaving Su Han feeling stifled.
