Chapter 69 Go Back By Yourself



"Your Majesty, I am not aware of this matter."

Although Su Jinyue lowered her eyes, her voice was particularly puzzled, "No one has informed me before that I should enter the palace."

"Miss Su." Xiao Duo's voice sounded particularly nonchalant. "I said yesterday that I would send someone to your house to pick you up and bring you to the palace today. Did you forget about this?"

"I didn't forget. I want to apologize to General Xiao. No one in the palace reported today, and I was locked in the room, so I was delayed. I hope Your Majesty and General Xiao will not blame me."

The emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "You said you were locked in the room, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty, the people in my courtyard said that I just returned to the mansion yesterday and they are not used to my presence yet, so they locked my door. I have already punished them."

This matter is certainly not that simple, but the emperor does not want to pursue it further.

After listening to Su Jinyue's words, he said calmly: "The servants in the Marquis' Mansion should be properly disciplined."

"That's enough." The emperor said, "You have made great contributions in quelling the epidemic at the border. What reward do you want?"

"I dare to ask for a favor from Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty can give me a promise."

The emperor found Su Jinyue's request interesting. He looked at the kneeling prince with interest and asked, "Tell me, what promise do you want me to make to you?"

"This subject has thought it over. Can I just ask for a promise from your majesty... and then fulfill it in the future?"

“Hahahahahahaha!”

The emperor laughed out loud and nodded, "Interesting. Okay, then I'll do as you say. I'll make this promise to you. Whenever you come to me for help, I'll fulfill it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Su Jinyue immediately kowtowed to His Majesty.

The emperor raised his hand and said, "Everyone, get up."

After Su Jinyue got up, Su Zhiyao was still kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to stand up.

The emperor didn't care that she didn't get up. He asked Su Jinyue, "I heard from Concubine Xian that you can cure Yuzhu's illness?"

"Yes, I am somewhat sure that the princess is not born mute."

The emperor tapped the table with his fingertips and looked at His Highness Xiao Duo, "You have allowed me to marry you off to a beautiful baby."

Xiao Duo curled his lips slightly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise."

"Okay, I'm tired too, you guys go back first."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

Finally, she was able to leave. Su Zhiyao supported herself on the ground and stood up shakily, almost stumbling and falling!

This happened in the Yangxin Palace. If we make a fool of ourselves in front of the emperor, it would be even more difficult to deal with!

Su Zhiyao gritted her teeth and staggered out of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity with Su Jinyue.

Su Jinyue and Xiao Duo walked side by side in front.

Xiao Duo turned his head to look at Su Jinyue. Feeling the man's gaze, Su Jinyue turned to look at him, "What's wrong, General Xiao, is there something on my face?"

"I'm just watching to see if you got into trouble as soon as you returned home." Xiao Duo said.

Hearing this, Su Jinyue turned around and let Xiao Duo stare at her. "Well, can the young general see anything?"

Xiao Duo curled his lips and smiled, "I didn't see that they got into trouble, I just saw that some people were going to be in trouble."

"Young General Xiao is really good at judging people. If one day he is no longer a general, he can go to the Xihe Bridge and be a fortune teller." Su Jinyue said.

Xiao Duo raised his eyebrows, "It's not impossible, Miss Su, remember to visit us more often then."

Su Zhiyao was at the back, and when she heard the two chatting so familiarly, her jealous eyes almost pierced through Su Jinyue who was walking in front.

After leaving the palace, Song Yan was still waiting outside.

Xiao Duo said: "Let Song Yan take you back to the Marquis' Mansion first. I need to go to the Xuanjia Military Camp."

Su Jinyue originally wanted to ask, didn’t you go yesterday, why do you have to go today, but she swallowed the words back after turning them around on her lips.

If she asked too many questions, Xiao Duo might be unhappy. Su Jinyue nodded and said, "Goodbye, little general."

After she got on the carriage, Su Zhiyao wanted to get on with her skirt lifted up, but was stopped by Song Yan who was standing under the carriage, "Second Miss Su, I am only responsible for sending Miss Su back to the Marquis' Mansion."

Su Zhiyao's eyes widened in shock, "Then I... our mansion doesn't have a carriage, how can I get back home?"

Song Yan looked at Su Zhiyao and said seriously, "It has nothing to do with me."

Su Zhiyao didn't expect Song Yan really wanted to "abandon" her, so she hurried to the side of the carriage and spoke pitifully to the inside of the carriage, "Sister, you won't leave me alone in front of the palace gate, will you?"

"If I didn't go back with my sister, my mother and brother would be worried."

The curtain of the carriage window was lifted, revealing Su Jinyue's beautiful face, and she smiled at Su Zhiyao.

"When I return home, I will ask my mother to send a carriage from the Marquis' Mansion to pick you up. You just wait here."

Without waiting for Su Zhiyao to speak, Su Jinyue had already lowered the curtain, and Song Yan rode away in the carriage without hesitation!

"elder sister!"

I didn't expect Su Jinyue to really dare to leave alone. Su Zhiyao's nails almost dug into her flesh. Her eyes were sinister. "Su Jinyue! You bitch!"

The carriage arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, and Su Jingnian and his brother, as well as Jiang Caiping were waiting outside the gate.

Su Jinyue got out of the car and saw them. She bowed and said, "Mother, brother."

Su Chengjiang looked anxiously in the direction of the carriage, only to see Su Jinyue and Xiaotao getting off. He became a little anxious, "Why did you come back alone? Where's Zhiyao?!"

"What's the hurry?"

Su Jinyue said slowly: "She is still at the palace gate, waiting for the carriage from the Marquis' Mansion to pick her up."

Su Chengjiang said angrily: "Su Jinyue! How could you leave Zhiyao behind and come back alone?! What's the harm of having one more person in your carriage!"

Jiang Caiping heard Su Jinyue say this and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with her and said, "Jinyue, mother said she would stand up for you, why do you have to hate your sister?"

"It's okay to sit with her while holding back the nausea."

Su Jinyue smiled and said, "It's just that this person was sent by General Xiao. He is only responsible for sending me back to the Marquis' Mansion. This is General Xiao's order. If you want to find him, go find General Xiao."

"Instead of questioning me here, brother, why not send the Marquis's carriage to pick her up from outside the palace gate earlier? This will also save her time waiting outside."

Su Chengjiang finally reacted and immediately shouted to the doorman, "Quick! Prepare the carriage!"

At that time, Su Jinyue had already passed them and walked towards the Marquis' Mansion.

Su Jingnian saw that there was no reward taken down from the carriage. He frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to Jiang Caiping and said something in a low voice.

Jiang Caiping nodded and took him into the marquis's mansion.

"Jinyue, wait a minute and go back to your yard." Jiang Caiping said behind Su Jinyue.

Su Jinyue stopped and turned to look at Jiang Caiping, "Mother, what else do you want?"

Jiang Caiping couldn't bring herself to ask about the reward, as if she was thinking about her daughter's reward...

Just as Jiang Caiping was still hesitating, Su Jingnian said, "Didn't you go to the palace to receive your reward? Where is your reward?"
