Chapter 493: Suspicious Illness
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor. Dragon Boat Translation
The caretaker’s words made Su Ying feel that Su Yulun’s illness was even more suspicious.
Back then, when the late Emperor was a.s.sa.s.sinated in the big hall, Su Yulun was also injured by those a.s.sa.s.sins very badly, but he did not suffer any shock.
Now, he only fell into the water and caught a cold, yet it almost took his life? These words did not carry any credibility at all when Su Ying heard them. “Where’S Su Yuyan?” Previously, she was always hanging around Su Yulun, acting like some filial daughter. Now that Su Yulun was about to die, she had disappeared without a trace.
‘■Your Imperial Highness, Second Young Miss has gone out of the residence.”
Xiao Jin instructed Su Yulun to reflect on himself in the residence, but he did not say that the other members of the Su family were not allowed to step out of the Prime Minister’s Residence.
“Does she come here normally?”
Yes, she does, Your Imperial Highness. Second Young Miss often comes to the
Prime Minister’s side to nurse him.”
Su Ying nodded slightly. She had to get to the bottom of Su Yulun’s condition.
“From today onward, clear out everyone in this courtyard. I will send someone over to serve the Prime Minister by his side twenty-four hours a day.
The caretaker raised his head to look at Su Ying in surprise. Who in the Su family didn’t know that this father and daughter pair had a grudge against each other? Su Ying actually cared about Su Yulun’s life and death?
However, it was not abnormal. The Prime Minister still had his influence. With the Prime Minister as a father, the Empress’s position in the palace would only be more stable.
Su Ying didn’t care what the people in the lower ranks thought. Before she figured out the whole matter, Su Yulun must not die.
The caretaker didn’t dare to disobey Su Ying’s orders and immediately ordered everyone in the courtyard to leave.
Su Ying took advantage of this interlude to return to the room and inject Su Yulun with a liquid medicine.
His current situation was indeed difficult to deal with, but it was not completely hopeless. As long as he was still breathing, she could pull him back from the palace of the King of h.e.l.l.
After administering medicine to him, Su Ying summoned Zhou Qing and placed two bottles of medicinal pills on the table. “Zhou Qing, I want you to stay in the Prime Minister’s Residence to look after Prime Minister Su for the time being. Grind these two bottles of medicine into powder and feed it to him three times a day. When he wakes up, send someone to inform me immediately.
Understand?”
Zhou Qing put away the medicine with a solemn expression. “Don’t worry, Your Imperial Highness. I will definitely take good care of the Prime Minister.”
“Mm-hmm.”
When Su Yuyan came home and went to Su Yulun’s courtyard, she found that all the servants had been sent out. She asked with a puzzled expression, “Why aren’t all of you taking good care of Father in the courtyard? Why have you come out?”
A maidservant bowed and said, “Second Young Miss, it was the Empress who told us to get out. She said that we don’t need to look after Master anymore henceforth.”
Su Yuyan got a shock. “The Empress is here?”
“Yes, the Empress came two hours ago.”
Su Yuyan pushed the maidservant aside and walked in. She immediately saw Su Ying sitting in the main hall.
Su Yuyan’s heart skipped a beat when she suddenly met Su Ying’s icy almond-shaped eyes. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
“What… what are you doing here?”
“impudent! How dare you be so rude when you see the Empress. Kneel down at once!” Zhou Qing barked out loud. Su Yuyan’s face turned pale, but she still gritted her teeth in anger and curtsied to Su Ying.
“Greetings, Your Imperial Highness. Just now, this official’s daughter was anxious and almost offended Your Imperial Highness. Please forgive me, Your Imperial Highness.”
“I won’t hold this against fools.”
Su Yuyan’s eyes turned bloodshot with anger when she heard Su Ying humiliating her like this. However, Su Yulun was lying unconscious on the bed and there was no one to back her up, so she didn’t dare to go against Su Ying.
“Where did you go?”
A hint of panic flashed across Su Yuyan’s eyes, but because she had her head lowered, Su Ying didn’t see it. Nonetheless, Su Ying sensed that her breathing was a little chaotic as if she was feeling guilty. “Su Yuyan, your father is lying in the residence with his life hanging in the balance, yet you still have the leisurely mood to go out of the residence?
Su Yuyan raised her head and said with pursed lips, “I went out of the city to the temple to pray for Father. If Your Imperial Highness doesn’t believe me, you can ask the attendant who followed me out of the residence today.” Su Ying raised her eyelids languidly. “I don’t care what you went out to do. You’d better behave yourself.”
Su Ying was threatening her!
Su Yuyan wanted badly to tear Su Ying’s arrogant face apart, but she didn’t dare, nor did she have the ability, so she could only endure. “Your Imperial Highness, don’t worry. I only think of Father in my heart, and will never do anything I shouldn’t.”
Su Ying looked at the sky and stood up. “From today onward, you don’t have to come here any longer. I will send someone to look after Su Yulun. If you try to barge in by force, my men will throw you out.”
How could Su Yuyan be willing to accept this? “Your Imperial Highness, what is the meaning of this? You just told me to take care of my father, but now you don’t let me get close to him. What are you trying to do? Father had already fallen into this state. Don’t tell me Your Imperial Highness still does not intend to let him off?”
Su Ying couldn’t be bothered to say another word to her and told Zhou Qing to drag her out straight away.
Unable to break free, Su Yuyan could only watch helplessly as the Imperial Guards closed Su Yulun’s courtyard door.
Before she left, Su Ying tossed out another line icily, “Don’t forget what I said, or I’ll break your legs.”
Su Yuyan was so furious that she ran after Su Ying, wis.h.i.+ng that she could pounce on her and hammer her to death.
However, when Su Ying suddenly stopped in her tracks, Su Yuyan cried out in fear and stumbled, landing flat on her face on the ground.
Su Ying glanced at her with disdain. “There’s no need to show so much respect just because I am leaving.”
Only after Su Ying left did the maidservant dare to step forward to help Su Yuyan up. “Second Young Miss, are you alright?
Su Yuyan raised her hand and gave the maidservant a slap on her face. “b.i.t.c.h! I was sprawled on the ground for so long just now and you didn’t even come over to help me up. All of you clearly wanted to see me make a fool of myself! I will never let you guys have your wis.h.!.+”
Su Yuyan returned to Su Yulun’s courtyard and tried to barge in. However, the Imperial Guards were standing guard at the door, and she could do nothing about it. No matter how much she persuaded, the Imperial Guards refused to budge an inch.
“This is the Prime Minister’s Residence. I am the daughter of Prime Minister Su. I want to go in and take care of my father. What right do you guys have to stop me?”
Zhou Qing walked out of the courtyard and glared icily at Su Yuyan. “Second Miss Su, don’t worry. The Empress will send the Imperial Physician from the palace to take good care of Prime Minister Su round the clock. I believe that it won’t be long before Prime Minister Su recovers.”
A hint of panic flashed across Su Yuyan’s eyes. “The Empress had always had a grudge with Father. Why should 1 believe that she would not harm Father?” Zhou Qing’s expression turned ominous when she heard this. “Second Miss Su, you’d better watch your words. Just based on what you said just now, I can slap your mouth!” After saying that, she went back into the courtyard and hollered icily, “Close the courtyard door. No one is allowed to enter without the Empress’s permission.”
“Understood.”
Su Yuyan stomped her feet anxiously as she looked at the tightly shut courtyard door. She ran to the other Su family members for help, but Old Mistress Su and the others didn’t want to get involved. Su Ying was now the favored Empress, so what good would it do them to offend her?
After being rejected, Su Yuyan went back to the back kitchen. At this juncture, the back kitchen was already preparing dinner for tonight.
“Where’s Master’s medicinal soup? Have you boiled his soup?
