The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chu Mingyuan concealed his slight impatience in his gaze. “What’s the matter?”

“It’s a joyous occasion. The day before yesterday, Madam Wu from Minister Wu’s family and Marquis Su came to inform me that their two families intend to arrange a marriage. They seek the emperor’s divine grace to honor their families and bestow the union of Young General Su and Miss Wu,” the empress spoke with a hint of sinister satisfaction.

She cast a smug glance at Su Yingxue, but to her surprise, Su Yingxue had already left her seat.

Madam Wu was also conspicuously absent from her place.

Wu Ruofei anxiously clutched her handkerchief, scanning the surroundings. “What’s happening? The empress has spoken, where has Mother gone?” This was a critical moment for her impending marriage!

Why had her mother left?

In a corner of Fengzao Palace, Madam Wu blocked Su Yingxue’s path with a stern expression. “Su Yingxue, what are your intentions?”

Su Yingxue blinked her large innocent eyes. “Madam Wu, why would you ask that? I’m here to pay my respects. What intentions could 1 possibly have? Is Madam Wu perhaps competing with me for a bridal chamber?”

“Miss Su, you’re sharp-witted, possess exceptional medical skills, and previously managed to escape unscathed despite breaking my daughter’s limbs. Yet now, you oppose her marriage to your brother but address her affectionately as sister-in-law. What are your true intentions?” Madam Wu transformed into a hawk, her eyes as sharp as knives as if she wanted to strip Su Yingxue of her skin to reveal her thoughts.

Su Yingxue smiled, turned, and entered the washroom. Her voice carried a leisurely tone. “1 can call her whatever I want. Madam Wu has no say in it. If you don’t want your precious daughter to marry into our family, you’re free not to agree!”

“Don’t even think about it! Su Hao defiled my daughter’s purity, and now if he refuses to take responsibility for her, the Minister’s Estate will never consent!” Madam Wu declared haughtily.

Su Yingxue listened from inside as her footsteps gradually faded away.

After she emerged and washed her hands, Zhilan brought her a handkerchief for wiping. She lowered her voice. “Miss, Madam Wu left in anger because of you. What if she genuinely refuses to let her daughter marry the Eldest Young Master?”

“Impossible! Wu Ruofei has liked my brother for so long, and the Wu family is determined to elevate themselves to the status of our Marquis’s Manor. She has no reason to do this. Even if my brother has some hidden ailment, they’re still eager to expedite this marriage!” Su Yingxue asserted proudly, her gaze directed at a foot in the corner of the wall.

She curled her lips, and Zhilan immediately chimed in with a cooperative smile. “Indeed, our Eldest Young Master is a standout among the elite. Even if he displays a short temper at home and is prone to violence, there’s still a long line of ladies eager to marry him!”

“What’s that? Su Hao…” Madam Wu covered her mouth, finding it hard to believe that Su Hao had such a hidden secret.

However, as she recalled Su Hao’s relationship with Wu Jinyan, she had a vague suspicion that Su Yingxue might be deceiving her!

She leaned against the corner of the wall, listening attentively. Su Yingxue walked towards her and continued, “The Minister’s Estate is willing to accept Wu Ruofei. Once she helps Sister Jinyan avert the calamity, my brother can vent his anger on Wu Ruofei and cripple her. Then, he’ll be able to treat Sister Jinyan well. After Wu Ruofei is crippled, my brother can marry many noble young ladies. Can Wu Ruofei still have a bright future then?”

“That’s right, Miss. You’re the most thoughtful. After all, it was Wu Ruofei who tarnished her purity and attached herself to our Eldest Young Master!” Zhilan concurred as she supported Su Yingxue.

Madam Wu, upon hearing this, couldn’t bear it any longer..
