Chapter 64: Consort Xiang Is Dead

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Thinking about how she had been bedridden for so many years and how he had never despised her, her heart was filled with warmth.

After Chu Mingyuan finished feeding Consort Xiang the medicine, he wanted to return to the study. However, before he could step out of the palace gate, he heard someone screaming behind him, “Your Majesty! Your Majesty, what happened?”

Chu Mingyuan quickly turned around and reentered the veil of Consort Xiang, only to witness her coughing up blood.

Consort Xiang grasped the emperor’s hand, her eyes containing a trace of reluctance. “Your Highness…”

“Xiang’er… Xiang’er!”

Su Yingxue was gathering herbs in the Medicine King Valley, preparing medicine for Consort Xiang and Zi Wei. Little Ginseng had been nagging in her ear, “You are so good at saving others, why don’t you save the person you like? Even though they carry the scent of old wounds, you haven’t given them any medicine.”

“If you say nonsense again, I will pull your whiskers! Who likes him!” Su Yingxue rolled her eyes.

“My whiskers can revive the dead, so don’t say that lightly! Back to the topic, do you not like the Ninth Prince? Then why did you gather so much Blood Clotting Grass and Seven Star Lotus?” Little Ginseng caught sight of the herbs that Su Yingxue had secretly gathered.

Su Yingxue snorted coldly and tucked the herbs into her embrace. “It’s none of your business!”

This was the bad thing about Little Ginseng inside her body. It knew everything she did, and could even see through her thoughts, leaving her with no privacy.

Regarding its earlier claim that its whiskers could bring the dead back to life, she didn’t take it seriously.

After carefully preparing three sets of medicine, Su Yingxue was about to find an opportunity to give Chu Yihan his share of the medicine when a loud commotion erupted downstairs.

Manager Qi stood outside the door and said, “Miss, the chief imperial guard from the palace has come to invite the genius doctor to the palace to see Consort Xiang, Your Majesty.”

Su Yingxue furrowed her brows. Why did Consort Xiang summon her to the palace so quickly? Could her condition have worsened, or was there a problem with her health?

She quickly changed her clothes and put on a hood before descending to the lower floor.

She intended to have Wu Jinyan deliver the medicine to the prince’s mansion, but seeing that she wasn’t working at the medicine cabinet, she handed the medicine to Manager Qi.

“Deliver this medicine to the Ninth Prince’s mansion.”

Manager Qi had never taken on this task before and received it cautiously. “Miss, rest assured. 1 will personally deliver it.”

Su Yingxue nodded and walked out of the medical hall. She boarded the carriage with Lan Ling.

Having served Chu Mingyuan for many years, Lan Ling knew7 that Consort Xiang was his most beloved woman. Therefore, she treated Su Yingxue with particular respect.

As Su Yingxue chatted with him, she asked, “Consort Xiang hasn’t finished the medicine that I gave her, and Your Majesty suddenly summoned me into the palace. Is her body feeling unwell again?”

“She wants to see me?” Su Yingxue had a sense of foreboding.

With Chu Chengye as her bargaining chip, Consort Xiang knew7 that Su Yingxue acted prudently and wouldn’t summon her unless something happened in the palace or Consort Xiang had heard about an incident outside the palace.

Su Yingxue’s heart grew heavy as she followed Lan Ling to Consort Xiang’s palace.

Consort Xiang w7as an intelligent and spirited beauty, and the atmosphere in the palace had always been light-hearted. However, as Su Yingxue entered, she felt an extraordinary weightiness.

In the main hall, Chu Mingyuan sat with a dark expression. Before Su Yingxue could kneel and pay her respects, he angrily waved his hand, “Lan Ling, seize her and kill her on the spot!”

Lan Ling hesitated for a moment, but Chu Mingyuan slammed the table and shouted, “What are you standing there for? Kill her! This thief who killed Xiang’er!”

Lan Ling realized the situation and immediately unsheathed her sword, swinging it toward Su Yingxue..
