Chapter 38 Physical Examination Required
In the morning, Su Yue woke up from a strange bed, touching her slightly sore forehead.
"Hiss." Because she used too much force, the severe pain in her hand made her gasp in pain.
"Miss, you're awake." The maid serving nearby saw Su Yue wake up and hurried over to help.
"Where am I?" She looked at the completely unfamiliar room. She had no recollection of what happened after she fainted last night. The last thing she saw was a pair of boots.
"Miss, this is the Third Prince's residence." A maid in a green jacket and skirt replied to Su Yue, and after she finished speaking, she looked at Su Yue a few more times, intentionally or unintentionally.
Su Yue was stunned, and then she remembered that she seemed to have taken a sip of Hehuan Powder last night.
But now, except for my hands, I obviously don't have any symptoms of poisoning. Could it be that...
Her face turned pale, but after careful feeling, she did not have the same feeling as after the wedding night in her previous life. Thinking of those gentle peach blossom eyes, she thought that some other method must have been used.
"The third prince has arrived." Su Yue had just finished washing up when the servants outside announced that the third prince was here.
When the two met, the maids considerately left and closed the door for them. The third prince stayed up all night guarding this young lady, and anyone with a brain would know that the third prince had special feelings for this girl.
"You..." Su Yue looked at the Third Prince, hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to make up her mind: "Thank you for saving me yesterday, Third Prince. Can you take me back to the Prime Minister's Mansion? I haven't returned all night, and my mother may be worried."
Shangguan Nanxing just looked at her steadily with gentle eyes, as if he didn't hear the change in her address.
Even though he felt Su Yue was deliberately distancing herself from him, he really couldn't deceive himself into being cruel.
"Well, I'll have the servants take you there later." His eyes were blazing with his usual gentleness, but he didn't ask about anything.
Su Yue lowered her head. Shangguan Nanxing's attitude towards her made her feel at a loss.
When the servants informed her that the carriage was ready, Su Yue walked out the door in a panic, not daring to look back to meet Shangguan Nanxing's eyes.
If she could raise her head, if she could look back when she walked, she would see that the young man had been looking at her silently from beginning to end, with his thin lips slightly pursed and unshakable love in his eyes.
When Su Yue was about to walk to the Prime Minister's residence with a lonely look on her face, the gatekeeper saw her from afar and hurried in to inform the Prime Minister.
The night she disappeared, the Prime Minister's Mansion was in chaos.
"Rebellious girl, kneel down!" Su Yue was brought to Zhiqing Hall by servants. As soon as she entered the door, Su Yan asked her to kneel down.
"Yuer, what's wrong with your hand? Master, didn't you see that Yueer's hand was injured? How could you be so cruel as to let her kneel down again!" Gu rushed to Su Yue's side, and wanted to pull up her daughter's hand to see if she felt distressed. However, she was afraid that too big a movement would hurt her, so she stood in front of Su Yue at a loss.
"She deserves it! She actually went to your mother's house in the middle of the night! What do you and your daughter mean? Are you ignoring my words?" Su Yan looked at her bandaged hands with a trace of pity in his eyes, but when he thought that she had secretly shown pity to the Gu family behind his back, he became angry for no reason.
"If she hadn't gone there last night, how could she have encountered the robbers?" Su Yan scolded loudly, without asking how his daughter escaped from the clutches of those robbers.
"Second Miss, how did you escape from those three robbers? They were very vicious!
When I came back, I reported to the Prime Minister and took a dozen guards to look for you, but we searched all night and couldn't find you. It's really a blessing that you're okay! ”
When Butler Su saw that Su Yue was safe and sound, he finally felt relieved.
From beginning to end, Su Yue didn't say a word, and even her expression didn't change. Her eyes seemed to show that she had no interest in anything.
Seeing her expression, Su Xin showed a little joy on her face, but then thought that this scene seemed inappropriate, so she immediately put away her smile and replaced it with an extremely worried and concerned look, as if it was unintentional.
"Sister, the housekeeper Su said that the three kidnappers were extremely vicious. I heard that there are three flower-stealing thieves in this city who specialize in kidnapping young girls and releasing them after a night. Sister, you...should be okay, right?"
These words made everyone present change their expression. Su Yue, but the emperor is going to grant marriage to the third prince for the sake of congratulations. Even if there is a bullshit bet, at least for now, the bet has not been decided.
In other words, Su Yue is still closely connected with the third prince. If she really loses her innocence, it will be a huge shame for the royal family!
The emperor might get so angry that he might kill all the members of the Su family and bury them with the third prince.
"Su Yue! Do you have it? Do you have it?!" Su Yan still couldn't ask.
Su Yue still didn't say anything, but looking at her expression from the time she appeared until now, it seemed as if something really happened last night that made her look so hopeless, and her whole person gave people a feeling of despair.
“You…you…” Su Yan took three steps back in shock before he could steady himself. He suppressed the terrible speculation in his heart and muttered for a long time without knowing what to say.
When Gu heard Su Xin's words, her heart ached with pain. Was her daughter looking like that because she was bullied?
"Yuer, mother is here, don't be afraid." She didn't want to cry in front of her daughter, but her cheeks were already wet.
Butler Su was shocked and immediately knelt down in front of Su Yue, speaking with a guilty but sincere tone.
"Second Miss, I am wrong. If I knew those three people had such intentions, I would not leave you alone even if I risked my life. Second Miss, if you are angry, just beat me to death. I just hope you don't think too much!"
Although Su Xin and Aunt Liu showed concern on their faces, their identical eyes revealed an irrepressible gloating.
"Father, those three robbers last night were indeed fierce. My daughter's hands were injured during the confrontation with them.
But fortunately, my daughter was blessed by God and was rescued by the Third Prince at the critical moment. Last night, she stayed in the Third Prince's mansion. ”
Su Yue just deliberately showed a look of despair to make people misunderstand that something really happened to her. She took the opportunity to look at the expressions of the people around her. At a glance, she had a rough idea of who was behind the murder.
Su Yue was so bad at concealing her thoughts that she had no idea how she had been fooled in her previous life.
"Master, this is after all about Miss Yue's innocence. We can't just say that she was rescued, right?" Aunt Liu was obviously unwilling to accept this. This stinky girl had caused her to suffer the family punishment. How could she be willing to let her get away with it so easily?
"Then may I ask Aunt Liu if you have any good ideas?" Su Yue smiled faintly, but the smile did not reach her eyes, and it was a little grim.
"A physical examination is required!" Aunt Liu's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
