Chapter 227 Exchange Conditions
Outside the Yanliu Pavilion, the sky was already turning pale, and in the east, there were blood-red clouds.
Just like the current Yanliu Pavilion.
"Concubine Yi, are you sure you want me to come?" Su Yue looked at Su Xin with an indifferent tone.
"Yes, you are an excellent doctor, you can do it." Su Xin calmed down at this time. Since it has come to this, it is better to...
"But what if my medical skills are not good enough and there are two lives lost?" Su Yue glanced at Aunt Liu who was lying on the bed not far away and couldn't even open her eyes.
"How could that be? You can definitely do it." Su Xin chuckled, a hint of calculation flashing across her eyes.
If there really is two deaths, then you, Su Yue, must bear the crime of killing someone by medical treatment. The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. You, Su Yue, have killed someone, and Su Xin does not believe that the emperor can still protect you.
At this time, Su Xin was imprisoned in the cold palace, so naturally she didn't know that Su Yue was treating the emperor.
"There is nothing certain that I can't do."
Su Yue naturally sensed Su Xin's malicious intentions. It would be foolish for her to jump into such an obvious trap.
"You... Haha, I really don't know from which lowly person you learned medicine. You only show off when there is nothing serious, but when it comes to a serious matter involving human lives, you are afraid to take the lead."
Seeing that Su Yue was unwilling to help, Su Xin started to mock her, trying to provoke Su Yue into agreeing to treat Aunt Liu.
"What Concubine Yi said is absolutely right. I, Su Yue, can't stay here any longer."
Su Yue naturally did not point out such an obvious provocation. Now Aunt Liu's fate was already determined.
It doesn’t matter whether she stays here or not. On the contrary, if she stays here, Su Xin will keep finding fault with her.
"Girl Yue, can you save the baby in Aunt Liu's belly?" Just as Su Yue was about to leave, the prime minister, who had been silent, spoke with hesitation and tentativeness in his tone.
Su Yue paused. Her father was talking about the baby in her belly, not Aunt Liu. Could it be that he meant...
"Prime Minister, what do you mean? Don't you want to save Aunt Liu's life?" Su Xin naturally understood the meaning behind the Prime Minister's words and couldn't help but question him.
"Empress Yi, you are just a concubine in the cold palace, and I am the prime minister of a country. How can you talk to me in this tone?
Besides, who do you think you are, interfering in our family affairs so openly? ”
When Prime Minister Su heard Su Xin's question, his face became serious and every word he said was as sharp as a knife.
Su Xin's face turned pale. Yes, she is no longer Su Xin now. Even her status and position are far inferior to Su Yue.
"Father, do you really want to keep this child?" Su Yue turned around and met the eyes of her prime minister father with temptation in her eyes.
"You also know that I am so old now, but you are my only daughter..."
The lack of offspring has always been a pain in Prime Minister Su's heart, especially after he knew that Su Xin was not his, he felt even more that God was unfair to him. He was in good health and had no hidden illness, so why did he only have one daughter, Su Yue, after so many years?
It was not easy for Aunt Liu to have a baby, but the birth was so difficult, and even now...
Prime Minister Su turned his head and looked at Aunt Liu lying on the bed. There was no trace of pity in his eyes, but rather some blame.
If he knew that eating too much would affect the child, he would have starved Aunt Liu to make her thin.
"Forget it, let's just pretend that father didn't say anything." When Prime Minister Su met Su Yue's cold eyes again, he felt a sense of desolation in his heart.
Naturally, he knew a little about how Aunt Liu treated Su Yue and her son.
"All of you go out, and tell everyone that Madam Liu had a difficult delivery, one corpse... two lives," Prime Minister Su ordered the servants who were still present.
"Prime Minister, this concubine Liu is clearly still alive. Look at her belly, it's still moving, which means the baby is alive. How come there are two dead bodies?"
Su Xin opened her eyes wide and looked at the prime minister who stopped talking, her eyes full of disbelief.
Su Yue was also stunned by the words of her Prime Minister father. Did he want to give Aunt Liu and the child a quick death?
Thinking of this, Su Yue seemed to have thought of something and changed his mind.
"Father, can we talk alone?" Su Yue asked calmly. At this time, all the servants and midwives in the room had gone out, and Aunt Liu had fainted.
If we talk about outsiders, there is only Su Xin.
"You..." Prime Minister Su had just lowered his head weakly, but after hearing Su Yue's words, he raised his head with some hope and looked at Su Yue.
"My daughter wants to talk to her father alone." Su Yue spoke again with a firm tone.
"Concubine Yi, please step aside for a moment." Prime Minister Su also felt a little hope at this time, and hurriedly asked Su Xin to leave.
When Su Xin heard the prime minister speak, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but then he closed his mouth and walked out.
"Yuer, if you have any requests, just ask. As long as you can save the child." Seeing that there were only the two of them, father and daughter, Prime Minister Su's tone became humble.
"Father will agree to any request, right?" Su Yue said coldly, not caring at all about her father's humble attitude.
Because Su Yue knew that her father was acting like this now not because he had a change of heart, but because he felt that she was of some use to him.
"As long as Yue'er asks, I will agree." Prime Minister Su quickly responded to Su Yue's words without any hesitation. Instead, he was afraid that Su Yue would change her mind at the last minute.
"I want you to promise to divorce your mother." Su Yue finally spoke and stated the conditions of the exchange.
"This..." Prime Minister Su was stunned. He obviously did not expect that his daughter Su Yue would put forward this condition.
During this period, because Su Yue disappeared, Gu locked himself in Tingqin Pavilion all day long and did not see anyone. Naturally, he did not have the time to have a good discussion with Gu.
"What? Father doesn't want to? If he doesn't want to, then I can't save this child." Su Yue saw the hesitation on her father's face and knew what divorce meant to her as a father.
It is no exaggeration to say that getting my father to agree to a divorce is harder than cutting his flesh.
This is also the reason why Su Yue suddenly changed his plan. After all, this is really a rare opportunity.
"Yuer, can you change the conditions?" Prime Minister Su hesitated for a long time, but was still unwilling to divorce Gu, so he asked Su Yue in a negotiating tone.
"I only have this one request. And father, I can tell you that during this period of time, I will stay in Medicine King Valley. Father, you should know what Medicine King Valley means, right?"
After Su Yue finished speaking, she looked meaningfully at Aunt Liu on the bed.
"Medicine King? The number one Medicine King Valley in the world? Doesn't that mean Aunt Liu can also survive?" When Prime Minister Su heard Su Yue's words, there was an obvious flash of joy in his eyes.
"No, Madam Liu, with the birthing conditions, we can only save the baby, and we have to do it as soon as possible. Father is so hesitant. After some time, even the arrival of the Great Luo Immortal may not be of any use."
Su Yue naturally saw the joy in her father's eyes, and a hint of displeasure flashed through her heart.
