Lin Sisi’s loud voice soon reached the ears of Chu Mingyuan and the empress.
When the empress saw Su Yurou running over, she knew it had something to do with Su Yingxue. She deliberately asked, “What exactly happened?”
Su Yurou was summoned to them and cried. She told them delicately and tearfully that she argued with Su Yingxue. She didn’t know where Su Yingxue had gone. She was worried, so she wanted to look for Su Yingxue.
This was a family matter, and Su Dingheng didn’t want to make a big deal out of it.
After all, the people from Marquis of Martial South’s Manor had caused enough trouble in the imperial palace. He didn’t want Su Yingxue to cause any more problems.
But Chu Chengye seemed particularly worried. “Yurou, you said she ran away. Where did she run off to? Fengzao Palace is not small and she doesn’t know the way. What if…”
Chu Chengye recalled that his Third Brother was still recuperating in Fengzao Palace. His Third Brother had a vicious personality and had long held a grudge against Su Yingxue. He could take revenge at this moment.
Su Yurou’s eyes betrayed a hint of hidden resentment, but she bit her lip and said, “I don’t know where sister has run off to. It’s just as Your Highness said, I’m worried about her, so 1 hope Your Highness can help me find her.”
“Alright, I’ll go with you.” Chu Chengye immediately agreed.
The empress noticed the scheming look in Su Yingxue’s eyes, but she waved her hand and said, “Wait, since the incident happened in Fengzao Palace, I am duty-bound. I’ll go with you to find her. Su Yingxue’s medical skills are exceptional. If anything happens in my palace, I don’t want to bear this responsibility.”
“Oh? Su Yingxue ran off in a huff. Was it worth it for the empress to personally go and find her?”
Having spent many years in the palace, Noble Consort Xiao could easily discern the tricks at play here.
The more people went to look for Su Yingxue, the more intricate the design behind it seemed.
Chu Mingyuan also frowned slightly. “Empress, their quarrel is just a matter between young girls. There’s no need for you to personally go and find her.”
The empress was eager for Su Yingxue to get into trouble. She wouldn’t let go of any opportunity to embarrass her.
She bowed to Chu Mingyuan and said seriously, “Emperor, Su Yingxue’s status is different. She is both the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manar and a genius doctor. Today, she came to celebrate my birthday. If anything happened to her in my palace, as the mother of the nation, 1 would inevitably be ridiculed. 1 need to see her safe with my own eyes before I can rest assured.”
She had pushed the conversation to this extent, even bringing in the face of the nation’s mother, making it difficult for Chu Mingyuan to intervene.
He thought for a moment. “Alright, go ahead.”
The empress’s lips curled up as she led a group of people in a mighty procession to search in Fengzao Palace.
Noble Consort Xiao gave Chu Jinling a look and called him to her side. She asked him, “Do you know where Miss Su went?”
Chu Jinling shook his head, “I don’t know, but don’t worry, mother. Earlier, 1 noticed that Imperial Uncle had also gone out. My little Imperial Aunt is brilliant. She will definitely not have anything happen in Fengzao Palace!” Noble Consort Xiao pinched the tip of his nose and said dotingly, “You! Truly a clever little imp. You’ve already called Imperial Aunt so early.”
“Of course!” Chu Jinling was pleased with himself.
Whether he called early or late, he had to call eventually. Why not call a little earlier and gather more material from the two of them?
Noble Consort Xiao caressed her meticulously maintained nails and felt that it was a pity. Su Yingxue was such an intelligent woman. If she married into the Xiao family, how good would that be?
The empress, accompanied by a group of people, wandered through Fengzao Palace. Not finding Su Yingxue, they finally arrived at the wing, in front of Chu Xiuwen’s room..
