Before she could clear her name, Chu Yihan pulled her in front of him. Chu Yihan detected the scent of alcohol on her and asked in a deep voice, “Have you been drinking?”
Su Yingxue nodded. “Yes, but it’s not what Your Highness thinks. I’m actually…” “Is it for Xiao Yu?” Chu Yihan’s sharp, deep eyes locked onto her.
The depth of his gaze laid bare all falsehoods.
Su Yingxue nodded. “Yes, but this drink was offered by the Seventh Prince.”
“What concern is it of yours if he toasted Xiao Yu?” Chu Yihan’s voice was cold and deep. “Su Yingxue, I had no idea you were so close to Xiao Yu!”
“Your Highness…” Su Yingxue realized in her heart that this was a scheme orchestrated by Chu Chengye and the empress.
No wonder they insisted on inviting Noble Consort Xiao, Xiao Yu, and her to Fengzao Palace today.
She thought the empress would take the opportunity to confront her, but she didn’t expect her to use Xiao Yu to frame Chu Yihan and incite discord between the Xiao family and Chu Yihan.
“Su Yingxue, if anything happens to Yu’er, I won’t forgive you!” Noble Consort Xiao’s face was filled with anger. As she passed by Su Yingxue, she secretly squeezed her hand.
Su Yingxue’s eyes darkened. She grasped Chu Yihan’s hand and whispered, “Your Highness, I feel dizzy. Can you please take me out first?”
If they continued to linger here, it would only become more difficult to explain!
“Ye’er, Miss Su is feeling dizzy. Hurry and have someone prepare some hangover remedy for her.” the empress glanced at Chu Chengye.
Chu Chengye chuckled. “With Imperial Uncle present, it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to attend to Miss Su. I’ll have to trouble Imperial Uncle. After all, compared to Imperial Uncle, I’m not as familiar with Miss Su as Young Master Xiao.”
He seemed to be avoiding suspicion with Su Yingxue, but when he mentioned Xiao Yu, he was deliberately reminding Chu Yihan that Su Yingxue’s relationship with Xiao Yu was not simple.
Su Yingxue wished she could shut Chu Chengye’s mouth. But now wasn’t the time to confront him. She would settle the score later!
Chu Yihan left the empress’s palace with a cold expression. Su Yingxue chased after him, calling out, “Your Highness, Your Highness!”
Chu Yihan was walking too quickly, so she had to jog to catch up. However, she hadn’t yet drunk the hangover remedy, so she felt dizzy when she ran.
She simply found a small corner and squatted down. She went to Medicine King’s Valley first and drank the prepared hangover remedy. When she felt more alert, she would go after Chu Yihan.
Chu Yihan had already walked swiftly to the palace gates and was about to leave.
Su Yingxue wanted to chase after him to explain, but Granny Song rushed over. “Miss Su, please go and check on him. Young Master Yu can’t hold on anymore. The court physician said he can’t be saved!”
Su Yingxue’s heart skipped a beat. If Xiao Yu died at Chu Yihan’s hands, it would be over!
She couldn’t be bothered to chase after Chu Yihan and hurriedly followed Granny Song to Noble Consort Xiao’s palace.
Chu Yihan saw Su Yingxue chasing after him from afar. He had missed Su Yingxue for a long time, but he hadn’t been able to go to the Marquis’s Manor to discuss marriage. He was extremely unhappy, and seeing Su Yingxue getting close to Xiao Yu, he acted impulsively.
However, she didn’t catch up to him. Instead, she was called away by Noble Consort Xiao’s attendants.
Chu Yihan’s eyes flashed with a deep storm, cold and terrifying.

Mo Qi stood beside him, trembling. “Master, shall we…”
“Return to the residence!”
As soon as Su Yingxue arrived in the palace, Noble Consort Xiao chased all the court physicians out. She had always been composed, but at this moment, she couldn’t help but grab Su Yingxue and bring her to Xiao Yu. “Quick! Save him! Yu’er can’t die!”
If he died, the Xiao family would surely descend into chaos.
The century-old foundation of the Xiao family, her position in the palace, and Chu Jinling’s future life would all be greatly affected..
