World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess

Chapter 125 - So Bold



Chapter 125 So Bold

Su Muge rapidly stepped forward to support Zhang who had been pushed by Wang.

“Grandma, are you okay?”

Zhang looked back at Su Muge apologetically. “It’s my fault. If I had known their malicious intention, I would never have let them come here.”

Su Muge hinted Yueru to come and hold Zhang. “How could it have anything to do with you, grandmother? Some people are too ambitious and aggressive. How can you stop them?”

“This marriage contract has been sealed in the county yamen. You can’t deny it!” While speaking, Wang folded the marriage contract and put it away.

Su Lun narrowed his eyes. “Come on, bring me the thing!”

Hearing the words, the guards who were guarding outside rushed in.

Seeing so many people, Zhao De was scared to death.

“You, what are you doing? How dare you snatch it?!”

Su Lun raised the corner of his lips with a sneer and waved his hand gently. And the guards stepped forward to snatch the marriage contract from Wang.

“My Lord.”

Su Lun took over the marriage contract and threw it into the brazier in front of everyone. The thin paper instantly turned to ashes in the brazier.

“Prepare the carriage immediately and send them out of the city before the city gate is closed!” Su Lun didn’t care about falling out with the Zhao family.

“You! You Su Lun! You villain! How could you ruin the marriage contract?!” Wang screamed.

Hearing that Zhang and others would be sent out of the city, Zhao looked at Zhang with reluctance and anxiety.

“Grandma gets on in years. Let me send her away tomorrow morning.” Su Muge spoke solemnly.

Zhao De snorted. “Bah, you’re pretending to be filial now?! Now that you’re driving us away, mother must go back with us; otherwise, we’ll suicide in your mansion. Let’s see whether you can keep your official position, Su Lun!”

“My good girl, I’ve been quite content to see you three. Don’t worry about me.” Zhang held Su Muge’s hands with satisfaction.

After that, Zhang went to Zhao De. “I’ll go back with you, and I will never let you come to the capital even if I have to die.”

Zhao De and others pouted carelessly.

“Take them away!”Update by L istnovel.com

The Zhao family was taken away from Su Mansion.

“A group of trouble-makers! Keep away from them in the future!” Su Lun glared at Zhao angrily.

Zhao had been in a low mood because of Zhang’s sudden departure. After being glared by Su Lun, her eyes turned red.

“My Lord…”

“Humph!” Su Lun shook his sleeves and left.

Zhao could no longer stop her tears from streaming down.

Su Muge stepped forward to wipe the tears on her face gently with a handkerchief. “Don’t be sad. Grandma doesn’t want to see you embarrassed.”

Zhao nodded in sobs. “I know. Seeing that your grandmother is good, I’m much more relieved.”

Lu Mama stepped forward and whispered, “The eldest Miss is right. Don’t be too sad. My Lord didn’t eat anything tonight. There is still some cubilose porridge in the general kitchen. Madam, are you going to send him some?”

These days, Old Lady Su had been asking Su Lun to go to Haitang’s room. Now Su Wenmo was still young. If Haitang really gave birth to a boy, it would be troublesome in the future.

Therefore, Zhao mustn’t lose the support of Su Lun at this time and let Haitang become the second An.

Zhao understood Lu Mama’s meaning and nodded. “Get the cubilose porridge.”

Seeing that Zhao had recovered from her sorrow, Su Muge took Yueru and others out of the room.

“Xinche, find out who has sent the Zhao family out of the city.”

“Yes.”

Su Muge always felt a little strange about the appearance of the Zhao family and the marriage contract.

Before dark, a little maid came back with a message.

“Miss, they have gone out of the city gate now. It’s already dark outside, and the city gate has been locked.”

Su Muge nodded. “Okay.”

The next morning.

Su Lun went to attend the morning court as usual.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, he felt that his colleagues looked at him with a strange look.

Su Lun wanted to ask, but the morning court was about to begin, so he could only give it up temporarily.

Just as he entered the hall, Minister An came to him with his big belly and looked at him with a faint smile.

“Su Lun, I’ve never thought that you are so bold.”

Su Lun paused and looked at Minister An with a puzzled look. Before he could ask him, Minister An had stepped forward.

Throughout the morning court, Su Lun had been in a daze. He couldn’t help thinking about Minister An’s words and wanted to ask him clearly after the morning court.

“How is the preparation for offering sacrifices to Heaven and inviting God’s will?” Xia Hourui sat on the dragon throne and looked at the officials below.

“Everything is ready, Your Majesty.”

“Well, you may retreat.”

“Long may you reign.”

As soon as the morning court was over, Su Lun walked towards Minister An but was stopped halfway.

“Lord Su, you are too bold. How dare you deceive His Majesty?!” Lord Hu who was quite familiar with Su Lun came over and whispered.

He also said he was bold!?

“What have you heard?”

Lord Hu got close to Su Lun. After confirming there was nobody around, he replied, “Lord Su, your daughter has already had a marriage contract with someone else. Why didn’t you say it when His Majesty granted her a marriage? Now it has been widely spread. Do you want to die?!”

When Su Lun heard it, he became extremely nervous. “What do you mean, Lord Hu?”

Seeing Su Lun’s dark and gloomy look, Lord Hu thought it was true. “Lord Su, how can you be so muddled?! This matter is spreading now. Hurry to find a way to clean it up. I still have something else to do. Excuse me.”

After finishing his words, Lord Hu walked away quickly, leaving Su Lun standing alone in a daze.

“Damn it!” After a while, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and left the palace quickly.

In Zhaohe Palace, the Imperial Palace.

Princess Linghua sat on the left-hand seat in the inner hall. Concubine Qin sat beside her with her eyes lowered and gently fiddled with the porcelain cup in her hand with her slender fingers.

“Your Grace, you must have known it.”

After a while, Concubine Qin put down the porcelain cup in her hand.

Princess Linghua was the youngest daughter of the Emperor’s mother. She rarely left the Princess Palace. At most, she would occasionally sit with the concubines in the imperial harem. Even in this case, she would hardly come once in several months.

Today, she came over because Concubine Qin sent a message to the Princess Palace early in the morning that she had something important.

Unexpectedly, on her way to the Imperial Palace, Princess Linghua was stopped by someone asking her to redress the injustice. Those people were the Zhao family who had been driven out of the capital by Su Lun.

Although Princess Linghua didn’t like to go out, she liked to redress the scales. So, she asked the Zhao family about the ins and outs of the matter.

That street was the only way to the palace. Once the carriage of Princess Linghua was stuck there, the officials entering the palace would be unable to move on. With the energetic voice of the Zhao family, the matter that Su Muge had a marriage contract that had been hidden from the Emperor spread quickly and widely among the officials.

Princess Linghua slightly lifted her eyelids and looked at Concubine Qin. “Are you asking me to come over for this matter?”

Concubine Qin laughed out loud. “Of course not, I had just known about it. I ask you to come today because I have got an authentic work of the immortal Shangyin. I know you’ve always liked it, so I want to give it to you in person.”

Concubine Qin glanced at the palace maid who took out a scroll painting.

Hearing the words “the immortal Shangyin”, Princess Linghua brightened her eyes.

When the maid opened the scroll, she stood up from her chair.

“I don’t know about this, so it’s wasteful to leave this painting with me.”

Princess Linghua nodded with satisfaction as she looked at the scroll painting. “This is an authentic work of the immortal Shangyin indeed. Concubine Qin, you are so thoughtful.”

Princess Linghua was not a simple and naive girl. She knew Concubine Qin wouldn’t give her such a precious gift for no reason, not to mention how hard it was to get an authentic work of the immortal Shangyin.

“As long as you like it, I’m satisfied.”

Princess Linghua asked the palace maid to put the scroll away carefully. “Su Mansion was too bold indeed. I’ll explain it clearly to my brother in person. As for the marriage, it’s up to him.”

Princess Linghua was clear that Concubine Qin had opinions about the marriage of Xia Houkun and Su Muge. It didn’t have much influence on her if she made it clear.

“Thank you so much, Your Grace.”

After leaving Zhaohe Palace, Princess Linghua went to Yangyi Palace.

“Your Grace.” The palace people guarding the door stepped forward to salute.

“Is His Majesty in the hall?”

She knew Xia Hourui would have breakfast in Yangyi Palace every morning after the morning court.

“Your Grace, His Majesty is not in the palace. Just now, Eunuch Yi sent a message that His Majesty would directly have breakfast in the Imperial Study.”

Princess Linghua realized that Xia Hourui would be busier than usual due to the coming heaven worship.

“I see.”

Although she had promised Concubine Qin to tell Xia Hourui about this matter, she didn’t promise to tell him about it right away. Seeing that Xia Hourui would be too busy to deal with these chores, she decided to wait until the heaven worship was completed.

Thinking of this, Princess Linghua left the palace.

Su Lun left the palace and went directly for Zhao.

“My Lord, you’re back …”

“Snap!”

“Ah!”

“Look what you have done! Make so much trouble for me!”

With a fierce look, Su Lun slapped on Zhao’s face heavily. Zhao was stumbled to the ground.

“My Lord, please forgive me.”

“My Lord, don’t be mad. What has Madam done to make you so angry?”

The maids in the room were so scared that they all knelt to the ground.

“Get out of here!”

“My Lord, Madam…” Meihua was afraid that Zhao would be hit by Su Lun again. But as soon as she opened her mouth, Su Lun kicked her on her chest.

“Get out!”

“Meihua, you go out first.”

Hearing Zhao’s words, Meihua and others had to leave.

Meihua endured the pain and whispered, “Hurry up! Go to Peachblossom Courtyard and find the eldest Miss.”
