Chapter 368: The Grievance of Su Ning
As for Doctor Zhu, after Su Yue left, although what she said sounded reasonable, he went straight to Li Yan after leaving the living room just in case.
"What? You said Su Yue came here and asked you to treat the servants?" After hearing what Doctor Zhu said, Li Yan's expression became serious.
"Yes, I always felt something was wrong, so I came here to talk to you." Doctor Zhu looked at Li Yan and expressed his concerns.
"With Su Yue's medical skills, she wouldn't come to you. Even if she couldn't figure out the condition as she said, there are many doctors. As a princess, she can call a bunch of doctors. Why did she have to come to you?"
Li Yan half-sat on the bed, watching Doctor Zhu analyze the situation aloud.
"Your analysis makes it even more suspicious." After hearing what Li Yan said, Doctor Zhu stroked his goatee and nodded in agreement.
"Are you hiding something from me?" After thinking for a while, Li Yan still had no clue, so he looked at Doctor Zhu and asked.
"What could I possibly hide from you?" Doctor Zhu subconsciously denied it when he heard Li Yan's question.
"Really not. Think about it carefully. What about your medical skills, your experience, or who have you saved?" Li Yan looked at Doctor Zhu and saw that he looked confused. So she asked him one thing after another, trying to make him remember something.
"Or, what did you do that is related to the Guan family?" Li Yan asked again. With her brain, this much she could think of.
"Official family? Now I remember, I also replaced the face of a girl before. Her name was Su something, and she had the same surname as this princess. Later I heard that this person became a concubine, and I don't know what happened after that."
Doctor Zhu slapped his head and told Li Yan something that he had not told her before.
"Su?" Li Yan was stunned when she heard what Doctor Zhu said. There are many women with the surname Su in the world. She really couldn't guess who it was for the time being, and she might not know her.
"His surname is Su. It seems he ran away from marriage. But it has been a long time. At that time, I took the money to do the job. After the job was done, I left. I didn't know much about it."
Doctor Zhu saw what Li Yan was thinking about, so he revealed another clue.
"The woman named Su who ran away from marriage..." Li Yan woke up as if from a dream at this moment. She couldn't remember who this woman was, and that made her speechless.
"Is her name Su Xin?" Although Li Yan asked, she was actually already certain in her heart.
The news that Su Xin from the Prime Minister's Mansion escaped from marriage and disappeared spread throughout the Dongyou Imperial City at that time.
Moreover, she naturally saw through the fact that Su Xin and Su Yue did not get along very well after spending some time together. Most importantly, the rumor among the people that Su Xin was not the Prime Minister's biological daughter was revealed by Su Yue.
With that said, it made sense why Concubine Yi rushed over when she and the second prince got married.
That Concubine Yi must be Su Xin's appearance after having her face changed, otherwise how could a concubine in the deep palace have such a deep hatred with Su Yue that she would risk her life to assassinate Su Yue in front of the emperor.
"Yes, her name is Su Xin." After hearing what Li Yan said, Doctor Zhu slapped his thigh and answered confidently.
"If that's the case, I suspect Su Yue may know that you can perform face-changing techniques." Li Yan's mind was clear at this time, so he guessed aloud.
"It shouldn't be the case. I am very confident in the face-changing technique and it won't be exposed." Doctor Zhu denied Li Yan's guess. It was clear that Li Yan was questioning himself.
"I'm not doubting your face-changing technique, but Su Xin is too stupid. The face-changing technique can only change the face, but not the personality. Su Yue is extremely smart. Even when I met her before, if Su Yue and I were not familiar with each other, I would not have dared to guarantee that I could hide it from Su Yue."
Li Yan naturally saw that Doctor Zhu was dissatisfied with her questioning his medical skills, so she explained again.
"As for personality, it's really hard to say." Doctor Zhu nodded in agreement after hearing Li Yan's words.
"So if Su Yue knew that you could perform face-changing techniques, she might suspect that I was a fake Ning Xiang. She must be here for her good friend Chen Wanwan."
Li Yan followed her own guess. After all, she didn't know that Su Yue went to Medicine King Valley. As for the fact that Doctor Zhu was the person Medicine King Valley was looking for, it was even more impossible for Doctor Zhu to say it on his own initiative, so Li Yan could only infer to this extent.
"What should we do then?" Doctor Zhu heard what Li Yan said and thought about their grand plan. If Li Yan was exposed, it would be difficult to deal with it later.
"It doesn't matter. As long as we keep our side stable, Su Yue won't be able to do anything to us. I just asked someone to find out that Su Yue's wedding is in a month. By then, as long as Fu Ping acts according to my plan, our plan will surely succeed."
After Li Yan finished speaking, he stroked the embroidered quilt covering his legs, with a grim smile on his face.
"Are you so sure that Fu Ping will take action? Do you want to make a second plan?" Doctor Zhu looked at Li Yan puzzled and asked. He really couldn't figure out why Li Yan was so sure that Fu Ping would take action.
"She will. Even if she doesn't use my method, she will still do it." Li Yan seemed to have thought of something. After looking at Doctor Zhu, he spoke with certainty.
"Then I hope it will be as you said." Doctor Zhu saw Li Yan was so confident and said nothing more.
"Nothing, you can go out first. By the way, just in case, you should not leave the house during this period of time."
After Li Yan finished speaking, she waved to Doctor Zhu, indicating that she wanted to rest.
When Doctor Zhu saw Li Yan like this, he just glanced at her and turned around and walked out of the room.
In Princess Su Yue's mansion, Su Yue was writing a letter. She had been busy with things here during this period of time. There had been no news from Yun Ye, so she was preparing to write a letter to express her condolences.
By the way, she also informed Yun Ye of her wedding date. If Yun Ye had time to attend, she would of course be very happy.
"Princess, Miss Su Ning is here and wants to see you." The servant came hurriedly and interrupted Su Yue's actions.
"What is she doing here? Let her in." Su Yue paused, looked up subconsciously with confusion, but after seeing the servant with his head lowered, he ordered Su Ning to come in.
"Yuer, I came here this time because I want you to help me." When Su Ning walked in and saw Su Yue, she hesitated for a moment, but finally mustered up the courage to speak.
"Sister, what can I do for you?" Su Yue saw Su Ning's conflicted expression and asked.
"I want you to help me convince my mother not to marry me to that scoundrel." Su Ning's eyes even turned red when she said this.
When Su Yue saw Su Ning like this, she was stunned at first. Her sister had a stubborn temper, but her eyes were red. How much grievance must she have endured during this period of time?
"What's wrong? Sister, please tell me in detail." Su Yue put down the brush in her hand, stood up, walked to Su Ning and asked.
The lecher must be Li Yan. She had noticed some clues when Minister Li and his wife left last time.
But logically, my aunt loves my sister Su Ning very much and will definitely not force her to marry off against her wishes.
Besides, given her aunt's personality, she was quite interested in knowing how she convinced the Li family.
