Chapter 40 Everyone is here, sister will check it out
"Since I won't check it, but the maids are here, I can't let them make a wasted trip." Su Yue looked up, his expressionless face making it hard to understand.
But Su Xin's heart sank. She felt that this girl was going to target her next. After all, she had put in a lot of effort to humiliate her just now.
"Oh, then what do you want to do?" Shangguan Nanxing stared at her face. After a night of tossing and turning and excessive blood loss, her face was terribly pale. A trace of heartache inexplicably flashed through his heart, and he unconsciously responded to her words.
"Replying to the Third Prince, I saw my sister Su Xin leave the mansion in the middle of the night two days ago. I don't know what she went to do. It seems that she didn't come back all night. For the sake of the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, sister, please bear with it and examine your body."
Su Yue stared at Su Xin with undisguised provocation in her eyes. "If you are unkind to me, don't blame me for being unjust."
Su Xin turned pale and immediately retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I go out in the middle of the night? How can you say I didn't come back all night? Father, you must not believe your sister's nonsense. Send someone to investigate and you will know that I am innocent."
In front of the banished immortal-like Third Prince, she must maintain her perfect image.
"Why would we need to go through so much trouble to investigate? We can just go out and check and we'll know. If she's still intact, then she must be my sister. I was wrong." She chuckled, but the smile did not reach her eyes. There was only deep, unresolvable hatred.
"You, you, you..." Su Xin kept saying "you" for a long time but didn't know how to refute.
"What Miss Su said makes sense. Since the maid is here, let's do the test. However, it is not convenient for me to get involved in the family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I will take my leave now."
It's not that he didn't know that she was using him to vent her anger, but looking at her shaky body, he couldn't bear to refuse.
After saying that, he forced himself not to look at Su Yue anymore, turned around and left.
From beginning to end, Su Xin didn't dare to muster up the courage to speak to the Third Prince. Unlike the Second Prince, she felt that if she spoke casually, it would seem like an insult to the Third Prince. She had to pick a day to formally introduce herself.
But she had thought about how the Third Prince, who seemed like a banished immortal, could so easily believe the words of that little bitch and be deceived.
A pair of beautiful eyes stared at the Third Prince, full of resentment and sorrow. Unfortunately, the Third Prince didn't even look at her from beginning to end.
After everyone in Zhiqing Hall bid farewell to the Third Prince, Su Yan's eagle eyes were blazing. The Third Prince's last words were obviously asking him to examine Su Xin's body to vent Su Yue's anger.
He was an experienced person, and even if the Third Prince hid it deeply, he could still see that he was interested in Su Yue.
"Someone, come and take the young lady away for a physical examination." Su Yan spoke, his tone as indifferent as before.
"Father, father, my daughter has been staying in the mansion all the time and has never gone out at night. Father, you must be very clear!" Su Xin panicked. She was just watching the fun and enjoying herself, but now she has become the one making trouble.
"Master, Xin'er has always been well-behaved and has never done anything that goes against the rules. Master, you are very clear-sighted!"
Aunt Liu was also panicked. She proposed the physical examination just to humiliate Su Yue, but she never thought that it would fall on her own daughter in the end.
"If the young lady doesn't want to, just bring a few more people and take her down to do it!" Su Yan had an impatient look on his face, as if he didn't want to stay here any longer.
He knew Xin'er was well-behaved, but since the Third Prince had spoken, how could he dare to disobey his orders?
"Yes." The maids and old women took the order, and five or six people pulled the struggling Su Xin down.
The sound of Su Xin crying and shouting for justice could be faintly heard from next door, and finally a shrill and humiliating scream of "Ah" was heard.
Su Yue lowered her head so that others would not notice the pleasure of revenge in her eyes.
Aunt Liu and Su Xin are definitely involved with the three flower-stealing thieves who kidnapped me. I didn't say anything when I came in just now, but Su Xin deliberately mentioned the flower-stealing thieves. If it wasn't them, then it would be weird.
Soon, the maid came hurriedly to report: "Prime Minister, the eldest daughter is still a virgin."
Su Yan closed his eyes and sighed deeply: "Okay, you all go down, everyone go down, we are all tired."
After saying that, he left Zhiqing Hall first.
"Yuer, are you okay?" Seeing the Prime Minister left, Gu hurried over and wanted to hold Su Yue's hand, but when she saw her hands wrapped in white cloth, she was afraid of hurting her. Her eyes were filled with tears and concern.
"Mom, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired and want to rest." Su Yue felt warm in her heart and spoke to comfort her.
After the physical examination, Su Xin's face was full of despair. There were still traces of tears on her face, but she could no longer cry.
Seeing Su Yue, there was undisguised resentment in his eyes: “Su Yue, I will make you regret it.”
"Oh~ What are you saying, sister? You seem to be blaming me. It was Aunt Liu who first asked for a physical examination!"
She was just taking advantage of the situation. She raised her tightly bandaged right hand and smoothed her fallen hair with difficulty but elegance.
"Hmph, let's go!" Su Xin left angrily with an expression of waiting and seeing.
Only at this time did Su Yue dare to gently exhale the air that was stuck in her chest.
"Oh, you are so unkind, and you even blame me for being unfair." Su Yue stared at Su Xin's departing back and made a sarcastic sound.
After bidding farewell to Gu, Su Yue returned to Pingyuexuan. She finally had time to lie quietly in bed, having some time to herself and thinking about her own things.
In my mind, a pair of peach blossom eyes linger.
"Second Miss, the Prime Minister asked you to get ready and go to the palace to attend a poetry meeting tomorrow." Xiao He saw Su Yue lying on the bed in a daze, so she timidly conveyed what Butler Su had just said to her.
Su Yue's dull eyes gradually focused. The Queen would hold a poetry gathering in the palace every three years, and all the guests would be the wives of officials and their daughters. She remembered that in her previous life, Su Xin had won the title of the most talented woman in this poetry gathering, but she had not returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time.
But the palace was so complicated and diverse, with too many uncertainties, and she had no control over what people or things she would encounter.
"If I don't want to go, I'll just say that my hands are injured and it's inconvenient for me to go to the poetry reading." Su Yue's tone was indifferent, and it was hard to tell whether she was not going because she didn't want to go or because her hands were injured and she really couldn't go.
"Second Miss, the Prime Minister said that as long as your mouth is fine, it's fine." Xiao He bit her lip, thinking of what Butler Su said just now, and finally did not say that it didn't matter even if her hand was broken.
She felt that the prime minister was too harsh in treating the young lady. How could a father curse his daughter to have her hand broken?
Su Yue laughed at herself. Yes, her father was a self-centered person and would only do things that would benefit himself.
If nothing unexpected happens, Su Xin will also go this time. Since Su Xin has gone, how can Su Yue not go? After all, in this life, she is bound to ruin Su Xin's reputation.
She doesn't deserve the title of the most talented woman.
"I know. Just reply and tell them that I will go." Xiao He waited for a long time before she heard Su Yue's reply.
