Chapter 176 I Want to Host a Banquet (2/2)



Su Lan escorted Su Ruojin out of Yilan Courtyard, and casually asked on the way, "Doctor Su, the young master has almost recovered now, and the Dowager Consort is also well. I wonder when Doctor Su plans to return to Yanyang? The Dowager Consort said that she will definitely prepare a generous gift for you when she does."

Oh, are they kicking her out?

Su Ruojin's lips curled slightly.

As expected of someone from the palace, they prioritize profit above all else, and once they've used someone, they'll kick them out.

"Aunt Sulan, please tell the Dowager Princess that I will be leaving the Prince's residence soon, so the Dowager Princess need not worry."

If it weren't for the need to catch the person behind the scenes, her mother would have loved for her to return to the General's Mansion right now.

Seeing that Su Ruojin was so sensible, Aunt Sulan stopped talking.

When Consort Jiang woke up, she felt a sense of ease she had never experienced before.

Aunt Sulan was worried, so she made a special trip to the palace and asked Inspector Wu to examine the Empress Dowager's pulse.

After taking her pulse, Wu was shocked: "May I ask, Your Highness, which doctor has been treating your health?"

Seeing Wu's reaction, Consort Jiang's heart began to pound with anxiety: "Wu, is there something wrong?"

Wu Tidian shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with it. It's just that the Dowager Consort's old ailment has been cured. She is just a little weak. With careful recuperation for another month or so, the Dowager Consort will be fully recovered."

After speaking, Wu Tidian stood up and bowed to Consort Jiang, saying, "Your humble servant congratulates the Consort."

Consort Jiang and Su Lan exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with excitement.

They might not believe what others said, but Wu Tidian was the most skilled doctor in the entire Imperial Medical Academy, so his words were naturally credible.

"Your Highness, may I ask which physician treated your illness? I would like to learn from her."

Wu Tidian had naturally examined Consort Jiang's health, but he couldn't come up with a better treatment plan than Mu Jingshan's.

Consort Jiang smiled slightly: "Instructor Wu, it's not that I don't want to speak, but this doctor is a low-key person and doesn't like to have much contact with outsiders. I hope Instructor Wu can understand."

Wu naturally understood.

There are many truly remarkable people in this world who do not like to show themselves off.

Presumably, the renowned physician who treated Consort Jiang was the same.

Wu Tidian felt a little regretful and could only say, "Since that's the case, then I won't insist. I'll take my leave now."

After Wu left, Consort Jiang sighed, "This Su Ruojin is quite capable. If she weren't so unrestrained, she would be quite content to be Chu'er's concubine."

Aunt Sulan said nothing more. She had said everything she could to advise and say. The Dowager Consort was still bothered by Doctor Su's background.

"Sulan, now that I'm feeling better, I'd like to host a banquet and invite Princess Yaolan to our residence," Consort Jiang suddenly said.

Aunt Sulan understood the Dowager's meaning: "The Dowager's recovery is something to celebrate. I will go and make the preparations now."

"By the way, go to my storeroom and pick out some good things to prepare for Su Ruojin to take with her when she leaves the manor. After all, she cured me and Yi'er, so we can't treat her unfairly, or people will say that our Regent's Mansion is ungrateful."

"Yes, Your Highness."

When Xiao Yanchu learned that the Dowager Consort was going to host a banquet for Yaolan, he knew exactly what his mother was planning. He wanted to go to Yilan Courtyard to persuade his mother to cancel the banquet, but Su Ruojin stopped him.

"Yanchu, how can we let such a good opportunity slip by?"

Xiao Yanchu immediately understood Su Ruojin's meaning.

Normally, the Prince's mansion is heavily guarded, and not even a fly can get in, let alone harm Su Ruojin.

But if the Prince's mansion were to host a banquet, he would certainly not let such a good opportunity slip by.

“But Ah Jin…” Xiao Yanchu was still a little worried.

"Is there any better place in the capital than the Regent's Palace?" Su Ruojin asked with a faint smile.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yanchu finally nodded: "In that case, let's make the banquet even more grand."

A grand affair means inviting many people, and with more people, it's easier for the other party to take the bait.
