Otherwise, the Emperor and Concubine Bai would have used the time he was out of contact for no reason to plot against him.
Situ Yao's expression grew colder, and he nodded slightly, saying, "I know."
There is a high probability that many of Concubine Bai's men are already at Yunfu's place. If he doesn't go there, the matter may be exposed.
only……
How could he leave Su Mengyan here alone and go to see Yun Fu himself?
"Your Highness, it's really time for you to leave." The shadow guard was also helpless and could only persuade Situ Yao as much as possible.
Situ Yao waved his hand towards the shadow guard and said in a deep voice, "I understand. Please leave."
All the men who came with them on this trip couldn't stay to look after Su Mengyan, and now Su Mengyan couldn't be sent to Yun Fu. Situ Yao lowered his eyes, looking a little troubled. He was just about to order someone to buy two maids to take care of Su Mengyan when he heard footsteps coming hurriedly.
"Your Highness!" Cui Mixue was surprised and delighted to see Situ Yao. She hadn't expected to meet him here. She had just spotted someone from the back who looked like someone close to Situ Yao, so she followed him over to see what was going on.
When Cui Mixue appeared, the doctor had just finished the treatment. Covered in blood and sweat, he stepped out from behind the screen. When he saw Situ Yao, he breathed a sigh of relief and announced the good news: "Sir, the bleeding has stopped. The arrow is not poisonous. The rest depends on whether this girl can make it through the night on her own."
"If she can't get over it..." The doctor hesitated, "That's what this girl is destined to do. There's nothing we can do about it."
Cui Mixue's expression darkened. Who could make Situ Yao so worried?
Cui Mixue was unwilling to give in, so she pursed her lips, stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, what happened to someone?"
Seeing her, Situ Yao's eyes shifted slightly, and he let go of his nervous expression and said, "So it's Miss Cui. To be honest, today, Concubine Su and I were attacked. Concubine Su protected us with her own body, and her life is in danger now. However, I have something important to attend to, so I must leave."
As he spoke, Situ Yao sighed deeply and said, "No matter what, Concubine Su is here for me. I was thinking that if there is anyone who can take care of Concubine Su, I will bring them into the palace."
Hearing this, Cui Mixue's eyes lit up.
Cui Mixue may not care about other things, but there has been no significant progress in the relationship between the two of them until now. At the last palace banquet, she wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Situ Yao, but she didn't expect that the medicine she prepared would fall on her body.
Cui Mixue was so angry that she didn't go out for several days and simply left the capital to relax.
I didn't expect to meet Situ Yao here.
Maybe this is what is called fate.
"Your Highness, how about I help you take care of Miss Su?" Cui Mixue was anxious to curry favor with Situ Yao, so she took the initiative and said, "The Cui family has a separate courtyard here. Now that I'm alone, I can still take good care of Miss Su. How about that?"
"Then thank you for your help." Situ Yao smiled and asked, "Then, should Miss Cui go back to the villa and prepare a room or something?"
As if bewitched, Cui Mixue nodded and turned to leave. Situ Yao narrowed his eyes slightly to examine her before calling his guards over to give him a few instructions and then waving his hand to dismiss them.
The doctor also saw that Situ Yao was of noble status, so he did not affect Situ Yao in any way. After explaining the precautions, he left.
Situ Yao looked at the person lying on the bed, barely breathing, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed across his expression.
"Su Mengyan, I won't let you die."
Situ Yao dragged a chair and sat in front of the bed. He looked at her quietly for a while, and his expression finally relaxed a little.
At this time, footsteps were heard outside the door. The guard leader came in, clasped his fists to Situ Yao, and said in a low voice: "The person has been arranged to stay in the Cui family. Your Highness, Miss Cui probably doesn't have the courage to do anything, you don't have to worry."
Situ Yao nodded slightly, but didn't say much.
He naturally knew that Cui Mixue didn't have the courage to make things difficult for Su Mengyan, he was just a little worried.
The commander of the guards also brought in a little girl who looked older than Su Mengyan. Her facial features were regular, but her eyes were timid.
"Hurry up and meet the master."
As soon as the guard reminded her, the little girl immediately knelt on both knees and kowtowed three times to Situ Yao: "This servant greets you, sir!"
"He was bought by a human trafficker and has a clean identity. Your Highness can rest assured." The guard also said.
Situ Yao then nodded slightly and asked, "What's your name?"
"Your servant...Chunlian."
Chunlian? Situ Yao's expression was a little unhappy, and he said coldly: "This name is not good. Let's change it to...Chunhe."
Whenever the word "Lian" was mentioned, he would think of the concubine who had been so reckless as to almost frame Su Mengyan right under his nose.
"Yes, thank you for the name, sir."
"Come here." Situ Yao beckoned her closer, tossing her a bag of silver and saying, "I have to go on a quest. You stay and take good care of her. We'll go to the Cui family with her later. If she wakes up, take this token and send a letter to the official post station. When she recovers, we'll go back together to report. If she dies..."
Situ Yao's voice gradually faded.
Chun He then noticed the girl lying on the bed behind the screen. She looked pale and as if she was going to die. She felt distressed and did not dare to answer.
"Tell me something too."
"Don't worry, sir. I will take good care of her."
"Yes." Situ Yao stayed here until someone from the Cui family came to deliver the message that everything was ready, and then he arranged Chunhe and the doctor to live in the Cui family.
However, it is not convenient for Su Mengyan to move around now, so she will sleep in the clinic tonight.
Although the clinic didn't know Situ Yao's identity, they knew he was powerful. Furthermore, since they had accepted bribes, they didn't dare neglect him. The clinic manager stayed by his side almost all night, fearing that something might go wrong.
Fortunately, the original owner was young and not a pampered young lady, so the night passed peacefully.
The next day, the person was sent to Cui's house.
Cui Mixue looked at the person on the bed, thought for a while, and then ordered, "Go get someone to write a prescription and choose the best medicine. The money will be paid in my name. No matter the cost, you must cure her."
She saw that Situ Yao cared about Su Mengyan, no matter what the reason was, it could not be ignored. If she thought about it carefully, Su Mengyan was by Situ Yao's side twice when he was in danger. Even if there was no love between men and women, Su Mengyan must be special to Situ Yao.
If she treats him badly now, she will probably suffer the consequences.
After being in a coma for four days, Su Mengyan woke up at dusk on the fourth day. She felt nothing but pain and hunger.
She even felt that hunger was worse than the pain, and she was about to faint from hunger again.
