This reaction immediately confirmed Su Ying’s suspicion. “Su Yuyan, I didn’t think you were that stupid initially. You’re clearly the daughter of the Prime Minister’s Residence, yet you still want to degrade your status. If I take this wooden hairpin to Xiao s.h.i.+hang, do you think he will admit that he gave it to you?”

Initially still fl.u.s.tered, Su Yuyan gradually calmed down when she heard Su Ying’s words.

She raised her chin slightly and revealed her original delicate appearance. “The Eldest Young Master will definitely admit it. He did not approach our residence to propose marriage because he was worried that Father wouldn’t agree to it since he was a businessman.”

“Oh? Is that so?” Su Ying summoned the Imperial Guards and told them to take the wooden hairpin to Xiao s.h.i.+hang immediately. “Ask him if he’s willing to marry Second Miss Su. If he is, I will immediately bestow the marriage on them.”

A look of eagerness crept across Su Yuyan’s face. “Do you mean it, Your Imperial Highness?”

Su Ying chuckled softly. “Of course, I mean it.”

Su Yulun lay on the bed without making a sound. Although he was very angry at Su Yuyan for doing such a stupid thing, he also wanted to know what was going on between Su Yuyan and Xiao s.h.i.+hang.

The Imperial Guards found Xiao s.h.i.+hang who was about to leave Prince Jiangning’s Residence. When the Imperial Guards made their intentions known, Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s expression changed at once.

“Are you guys mistaken? I’ve never seen this thing before, let alone give it to a woman. I don’t conduct private deals like this. If Second Miss Su has misunderstood anything, I’ll definitely visit them at their residence to explain it clearly some other day, so as to prevent a rift between our two families.” After the Imperial Guards returned, they relayed Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s exact words to Su Yuyan.

Su Yuyan’s face was pale as she sat weakly on the ground, shaking her head in disbelief. “Impossible, this is impossible. He would never say such a thing!” Su Ying rubbed her throbbing temples. “Then I shall play the role of a good guy to the end and help you ask personally.”

Su Ying had already foreseen that Su Yuyan would never believe what she didn’t want to hear. Thus, she had the Imperial Guards bring Xiao s.h.i.+hang back to the main courtyard of the Su Residence.

Zhou Qing led Su Yuyan in through the back door of the main courtyard, while Su Ying went in through the front door.

Xiao s.h.i.+hang, who was waiting in the main courtyard, heard the maidservant’s announcement and turned around. He immediately saw Su Ying walking over. After one fleeting glance, he withdrew his gaze at once and went forward to pay his respects.

“Greetings, Your Imperial Highness.”

Su Ying walked past him to the main seat and sat down.

“Xiao s.h.i.+hang?”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang turned around and replied, “Yes, Your Imperial Highness?”

“I heard Younger Sister say that the two of you have known each other and fell in love long ago. She asked me to bestow marriage on the two of you. Is this true?”

A chilly glint flashed across Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s eyes swiftly. He was weighing the truth in Su Ying’s words, but Su Ying simply wouldn’t give him too much time to think.

“Xiao s.h.i.+hang, raise your head.”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang slowly raised his head. His eyes were bright and clear and his face was handsome. In particular, his two seductive eyes were especially captivating. Even when he didn’t speak, the corners of his lips were slightly curled up, and his eyes exuded a lingering deep affection. No wonder Su Yuyan was deceived by this appearance of his.

“Your Imperial Highness, your lowly subject has indeed met Second Miss Su before and has developed feelings of admiration for her. However, this lowly subject is now just a businessman and is probably not worthy of Second Young Miss’s n.o.ble status. Therefore, I have given up on the thoughts that I should not have.”

Su Ying raised her eyes. “Then why didn’t you tell the Imperial Guards the truth?”

“Your Imperial Highness, please forgive me. I didn’t say it because I was afraid that it would ruin Second Young Miss’s reputation.”

“Don’t be afraid. I have already said that as long as you agree, I will bestow marriage on you and Younger Sister.”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang clenched his fists tightly under his sleeves. How could he possibly marry Su Yuyan?

“Your Imperial Highness, marriage is an important matter. I have to discuss it with Father before I dare to decide.”

“Fine. Men, go and summon Prince Jiangning here for me.” Shocking!

Xiao s.h.i.+hang had heard of Su Ying’s reputation for tyranny before, but he hadn’t expected her to go so far overboard. Anyone could tell that he was trying to evade the issue. Therefore, Su Ying was doing this on purpose!

“Please forgive me, Your Imperial Highness. Your lowly subject really can’t marry Second Miss Su. Previously, I have secretly sworn that I would never marry and have children before I have made a name for myself.”

Su Ying leaned back in her chair languidly. “Then why did you lead my sister on? Make a name for yourself? What kind of name do you want to make? A name under one ruler, or a name as the ruler above all?”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s heart skipped a beat, and his knees went weak as he knelt on the ground. “Your Imperial Highness, you are very perceptive. I just want to do something for the people and be respected by the people like Your Imperial Highness.”

Su Ying gave a soft snort. The mockery in that derisive laugh was almost overflowing. “It’s rare that a young man like you has such aspirations. If you don’t want to marry her, then I won’t make things difficult for you. You may leave.”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang quickly raised his head to glance at Su Ying. It was as if he hadn’t expected her to let him off so easily.

“Yes. Your humble subject will take his leave.”

After Xiao s.h.i.+hang left, Zhou Qing brought Su Yuyan out from behind the screen.

Su Yuyan’s face was filled with despair. She looked as if her soul had been sucked away.

“Did you hear what he said just now? I’ve made myself very clear.”

Su Yuyan fell to the ground, her eyes red-rimmed as she glared at Su Ying

“YOU got your wish. Other people made a fool of me. Are you happy now?” Su Ying gave a scornful sneer. “You’re not worthy of my attention. I just didn’t expect you to be so stupid as to believe a man’s words and harm your own father. Why? Do you think he can give you more glory and wealth than Su Yulun?”

Su Yuyan’s face was as white as a sheet.

“Tell me. How did he make you turn Su Yulun into this condition step by step?” Su Yuyan pursed her lips tightly and didn’t speak immediately. “I can tell you, but I have a request.”

Su Ying batted her eyelids and gave a derisive laugh. “Su Yuyan, don’t you know what crime it is to murder the current Prime Minister?”

Su Yuyan gritted her teeth and said, “Then I’ll die anyway, so let me bring this secret to the netherworld!”

Su Ying slowly sat up straight when she saw the ruthless determination on her face. “But, don’t you know that there’s a kind of pain in this world whereby being alive is worse than death? I summoned Xiao s.h.i.+hang over to play out this act for you on account of you having the same surname as me. Su Yuyan, you should know when to feel contented.”

Su Yuyan’s face turned a whiter shade of pale. She had witnessed Su Ying’s ruthlessness, and she was definitely capable of doing something like that!

“I’ll talk. I will tell you. I only hope that you can arrange a good marriage for me and let me leave the capital city!” She couldn’t stay in the capital city anymore. If she didn’t leave, only death awaited her!

Su Ying did not give her consent but said, “Speak then.”

“It’S… it’s the food’s clas.h.i.+ng properties. I didn’t poison my father. I only fed him some food that Xiao s.h.i.+hang told me to prepare. At first, there won’t be any problems when he eats these foods, but after eating them for a long time, there will be problems with his body.”

Su Ying frowned slightly. This was food poisoning over a long period of time No wonder her investigation yielded nothing. It was indeed insidious.

“What did he promise you to make you do such a stupid thing?” From the looks of it, Su Yuyan wasn’t completely a love-struck person, so there must be a reason behind it..
