Chapter 66: Fight for Her Chance

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

It was rare for Chu Mingyuan to lose his temper with his Ninth Brother. He was usually arrogant, so he didn’t take it to heart.

But now, the person he was protecting was the one who lulled his beloved woman!

“Imperial Brother, please calm down. 1 just want you to give her a chance,” Chu Yihan said with a cold expression, but his eyes softened when he looked at Su Yingxue.

“What chance? I won’t give her any!” Chu Mingyuan waved his hand. “Lan Ling, capture her! Anyone who obstructs will be held equally guilty!”

Lan Ling received the order and took the knife from his subordinate. “Yes, 1 will obey!”

He led the imperial guards forward, expecting Chu Yihan to show some reaction. However, in return, Chu Yihan fought back against them…

He defeated them all!

Chu Yihan held the knife he had taken from the guard, blood dripping from its tip. The white blade reflected his resolute face, emitting a powerful aura that filled the entire hall.

“Chu Yihan! I usually let things slide, but now you’re becoming even more audacious!” Chu Mingyuan had always been wary of Chu Yihan, and now he had offended his authority as the emperor, sparking a desire to kill him.

“I have no intention of opposing you, Imperial Brother. I only ask you to give her a chance,” Chu Yihan firmly stated.

The atmosphere was tense. Chu Mingyuan wanted to kill Su Yingxue, but Chu Yihan refused to give in.

Su Yingxue knew that if this stalemate continued, they would not have a good ending!

So she knelt and pleaded in a resolute voice, “Emperor, 1 am confident that 1 can save Consort Xiang. If 1 fail to save her, I am willing to die as an apology!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the empress mocked her, “You lowly commoner! Have you ever considered your status? Are you worthy of being near Consort Xiang?”

“Imperial Brother, let her try,” Chu Yihan threw away the knife, his voice calm.

Chu Mingyuan’s anger had not subsided. “She caused harm to Xiang’er. Why should 1 trust her?”

“Just because I am confident in saving Consort Xiang’s life. If you insist on executing me, then Consort Xiang will have no chance of survival. Don’t you want Consort Xiang to live and accompany you?” Su Yingxue’s words struck a chord in Chu Mingyuan’s heart.

Chu Mingyuan thought of Consort Xiang and softened his stance. “Fine, I will give you a chance. If you cannot save Xiang’er…”

“Emperor, this person has sinister motives and is protected by Ninth Prince. I’m afraid they have conspired together. Emperor, please think twice and don’t let their scheme succeed!” The empress interrupted Chu Mingyuan and slandered Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan.

Su Yingxue gritted her teeth. “Your Highness, there is no conspiracy!”

He was just protecting her.

Chu Yihan pulled Su Yingxue back. “Get up.”

He held Su Yingxue’s hand and looked calmly at Chu Mingyuan. “If she can’t cure Consort Xiang, 1 am willing to share her punishment.”

The empress’s eyes widened, and a trace of joy surged within her.

Consort Xiang had already passed away. If they could not only eliminate the genius doctor but also get rid of the influential Chu Yihan, it would be killing two birds with one stone!

Chu Mingyuan had always been wary of Chu Yihan. This time, he had fallen into a trap. He snorted coldly. “You said it yourself!”

Consort Xiang’s body was placed in the main hall, and Chu Mingyuan allowed only Su Yingxue to see her. No one else was permitted to enter.

Su Yingxue suggested, “I want to meet Consort Xiang’s maidservant and inquire about her recent medication.”

“If they hadn’t served Consort Xiang properly, the people in this palace would have been dragged out and executed long ago!” the empress taunted, a malicious glint in her eyes..
