She, the sole daughter of the Zhenbei Great General, Yu Qianqian, was unrestrained and magnificent, renowned throughout the city. One night, a decree annihilated the entire General's Mansion. S...
——Xiyue Palace
Leng Yuexi was combing her hair in front of the bronze mirror when she heard news that Yu Qianqian was seriously ill. Su Yu was furious and kicked a eunuch to death in a fit of rage. He was now taking the patient to the Imperial Hospital.
She paused slightly in front of the bronze mirror, then turned her gaze to the kneeling palace maid beside her. Suddenly, her expression softened, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. Without saying another word, she led several of her maids out the door.
When Leng Yuexi was about to arrive at the Imperial Hospital, she saw from afar several imperial physicians arguing fiercely with a young man in white.
The imperial physician claimed that a woman of unknown origin was not worth their time and energy, and as he spoke, more people rushed up to surround the young man in white.
The strong are bold, and the many are bound to have the upper hand. At this moment, it was clear that the side with more people was more likely to receive strong support from the onlookers. The head of the Imperial Medical Academy, the imperial physicians, and all the servants rushed towards one person, and everyone accused him: "Do you think this Imperial Medical Academy is your private property? How dare you bring a lowly wild woman to defile this place? You are really overestimating yourself!"
"Exactly! Pretty boy, I'm giving you one last piece of advice: if you know what's good for you, get out of here with that dying wild woman and stop getting in my way!"
At this moment, the cursing continued, but no one noticed that the man holding the patient's face had turned ashen. His anger had erupted, and his eyes suddenly revealed an extremely abnormal scarlet color as he looked at the crowd.
With a sudden shift in his gaze, Su Yu moved lightly, carefully placing the unconscious woman in his arms aside. Clenching his fists, he approached the crowd step by step. Even before he was three feet away, his thunderous shouts had already reached the chaotic crowd.
"Doctors are paid by the people and should be dedicated to bringing benefits to all living beings. How has this become an exchange of interests for you? How could the current emperor, who is so wise and powerful, allow anyone to tarnish his illustrious reputation behind his back?"
"So, I also advise you all, if you don't want things to escalate, you must listen to me now and properly treat my woman and prescribe medicine. If there is any mishap before that, please forgive my ruthlessness, I will first slaughter this entire Imperial Hospital to accompany her to her death!"
Su Yu's furious voice, carrying the ferocity of a wild beast's roar, suddenly rang out in front of the bustling Imperial Hospital. Immediately following was another shout from the chaotic crowd: "How dare you! The Imperial Hospital is a royal residence, how dare you act so presumptuously?"
At this moment, everyone present except Su Yu was thinking that if it were an ordinary person, they would have been dismissed with a few words, let alone openly challenging each other in front of the Imperial Hospital. After all, they had the emperor backing them up, and no one had ever dared to voice any opposition.
However, Su Yu had already been harassed by the imperial physicians, and Yu Qianqian's condition was worsening and she could not be cured. This enraged him so much that he completely lost his mind. At this moment, he had no mind to care about anything else, and only wanted to do everything he could to save his beloved. Even if he had to completely break ties with someone today, he didn't care. Now, everything and everyone he cared about was inseparable from Yu Qianqian.
"Whether I dare to be presumptuous or not, we'll find out now by trying." Su Yu suddenly spoke coldly, his penetrating voice instantly reaching everyone's ears. His knuckles clenched so tightly under his sleeves that they cracked, a rare display of his emotional outburst.
