God's Daughter, Queen of Miraculous Medicine

Prime Minister Su returned from the harem, with a lot on his mind, but he did not stop and went straight back to his study. In the study, the candlelight flickered, reflecting his calm but slightly tired face. He waved his hand gently, signaling the housekeeper to come in.

"Su Gui, go and call the eldest young master. I have something important to discuss with him." Prime Minister Su's voice was low and powerful, revealing unquestionable majesty.

Steward Su bowed and took the prime minister's order. His old and steady voice revealed his absolute loyalty to his master: "Yes, sir, I will go and invite the young master right away." After saying that, he slowly turned around and walked out of the study with steady steps.

The moment he walked out of the study, a barely perceptible trace of deep thought appeared on Butler Su's face.

Thinking of this, Steward Su couldn't help but quicken his pace, secretly deciding in his heart to observe the movements in the mansion more carefully so that he could provide necessary assistance to the Prime Minister at any time.

On the way to the eldest young master's residence, Butler Su met several patrolling guards. He stopped and gave them a few brief instructions, asking them to step up their vigilance and ensure the safety of the mansion.

Soon, Steward Su arrived at the residence of the eldest young master Su Lianghuai. He knocked on the door gently, and after hearing a response from inside, he pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing that the eldest young master was reading in the study, Steward Su took a few steps forward and reported in a low voice: "Young master, the Prime Minister wants to see you. Please go to the study immediately."

Su Lianghuai heard this and looked up at Steward Su. A hint of doubt flashed across his eyes, but he soon regained his composure. He put down the military book in his hand, stood up, and nodded slightly to Steward Su: "I understand, Grandpa Su, you go report to Grandfather first, I'll be there soon."

Seeing this, Butler Su bowed and saluted, then turned and left. "Yes! Young Master."

Prime Minister's Study

Not long after, brisk footsteps were heard outside the study, and then Su Lianghuai, the eldest son of the Su family, pushed the door open and walked in.

He was wearing a well-cut brocade suit with delicate patterns embroidered on it. It shone slightly in the sun, showing his extraordinary status and taste. Between his eyebrows, a heroic spirit naturally flowed, and his eyes flashed with wisdom and determination, which made people involuntarily attracted by his extraordinary temperament. His behavior revealed calmness and confidence, as if he could handle any situation with ease.

Su Lianghuai stood there respectfully and said, "Grandfather, you are looking for me."

The prime minister looked at his grandson, who was always smart and cautious, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Huai'er, you have been smart and cautious since you were a child. Grandfather wants you to handle something, and I hope you can complete it."

Su Lianghuai's expression straightened up and he said, "Grandfather, please tell me."

The Prime Minister took a deep breath and said slowly: "Go to Lujia Village in Fengxi Town, Yuncheng City and check whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is there. If he is, get rid of him."

Su Lianghuai was shocked when he heard this, and he quickly said, "But... Grandfather, the Crown Prince and I grew up together, and we have a very good relationship. How could I have done this to him?"

The prime minister's face darkened and he said sternly, "Huai'er, why are you so confused! Don't you understand the current situation? If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to the palace, it will be a great threat to our Su family. If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your family and your cousin."

Su Lianghuai bit his lip, his eyes full of struggle. He knew very well that what his grandfather said made sense, but he really couldn't bear to ask him to kill his own good friend.

The Prime Minister looked at Su Lianghuai's expression and softened his tone a little. He said, "Huai'er, Grandfather knows that you value friendship, but you must understand that the rise and fall of our Su family depends on this one move. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to the palace, given his attitude towards our Su family, he will definitely not let us go. At that time, our Su family will be in an irreparable situation."

Su Lianghuai gritted his teeth, his heart full of struggle. He knew very well that what his grandfather said was true, but it was really difficult for him to attack his own good friend.

"Grandfather, can you think of other ways? Do we have to take his life?" Su Lianghuai asked without giving up.

The Prime Minister shook his head and said, "There is no other way, Huai'er, you have to put the overall situation first."

Su Lianghuai was silent for a long time, but finally nodded and said, "Grandfather, I understand. I will go to Lujia Village in Fengxi Town, Yuncheng to investigate."

Prime Minister Su then showed a trace of relief and said, "Good boy, Grandfather knows that this is very difficult for you, but it is also a helpless move. You must be careful and cautious when you go there, and do not reveal your identity."

Su Lianghuai responded: "Grandfather, don't worry, I know what to do."

Su Lianghuai left the study room with a heavy heart, and his mind was in great turmoil. He never thought that he would face such a difficult choice one day. On one side was his family, and on the other side was his good friend. No matter which side he chose, he would be in great pain.

Afterwards, Su Lianghuai began to prepare to go to Lujia Village in Fengxi Town, Yuncheng. He selected a few agile, loyal and reliable men, took some necessary items, and set off on the journey.

Along the way, Su Lianghuai was in a very heavy mood. He kept thinking about every moment he had spent with the prince, and his heart was filled with guilt and helplessness.
