The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

"Rou Rou, your wound has split open." Yuan Wen's voice came from behind.

Su Rou turned around and saw that her dress was stained with blood, and her back was already stained red with blood.

Su Chi's pupils trembled slightly, and he leaned over and picked her up, "Go back first, I'll ask someone to bandage you."

Su Rou subconsciously hugged his neck, and the sticky feeling made her realize a problem.

Su Chi was not wearing any clothes.

"Third brother, why don't you put on some clothes first?"

There were people on the street. Seeing Su Chi holding her naked, they were probably going to insult the general's family and say that they had a bad tradition.

Yuan Wen came closer, worry written all over his face. "How come you didn't react when there was so much blood? I guess you hurt your wound when you were hiding from the tiger down there with me."

Su Rou said, "It's okay, just a minor injury."

Yuan Wen looked extremely remorseful and said, "I will have the mechanism down there destroyed tomorrow."

This place is indeed very strange, and the secret room is being used by someone.

Su Chi casually grabbed a soldier's clothes and wrapped them around himself, then carried Su Rou back home.

Su and Ji were worried about her condition and brought their maids to check on her.

Ji held her hand, speaking carefully and concernedly, "I have some supplements in my courtyard that the general gave me. I brought them here when I came to see you today. Your courtyard is luxurious and beautiful, but there's no one to take care of you personally. I'll have someone stew some for you. Would you like to try it?"

Ji was so worried only because he wanted to take the opportunity to win her over.

Su Rou grabbed Ji's sleeve and said, "Not yet. I... am not hungry."

She looked at Su behind her. A'niang must be a fool. Ji's attitude was so attentive that anyone with a discerning eye could see that something was wrong.

Su also came forward and said, "You kid, why are you looking at me? Didn't you always love going to your third brother's mother's yard?"

It was because in the past, Ji Shi also treated her sincerely.

Ever since her last unpleasant chat with Ji, she has been deliberately avoiding the backyard.

Ji also agreed, "Yes, why are you deliberately keeping your distance from me now?"

Su Rou's eyes darkened. She actually didn't want to embarrass Ji, but seeing that Ji was trying to take advantage of her, she simply didn't care about Ji's face.

Su Rou said, "Does the Third Madam have amnesia? Didn't you come to me last time and ask me to support you to take the position of the First Madam? I dare not accept your gifts. If I accept them and don't do anything, won't you blame me..."

Ji's face froze.

Su Rou dared to speak her mind. She had already rejected him so clearly just now, but she still insisted on breaking up with him.

"What do you mean, Madam?" Su Chi came in from outside at this time.

Ji Shi felt awkward and lowered his eyes, avoiding Su Chi's questioning. "Nothing."

Su Rou said, "If it were in the past, I would have respected you, but today you're actually playing tricks on me. I rejected you last time, and now you're trying to show me your affection again. I'm just young, but I'm not stupid. How can I not see the emotion in your eyes?"

Su Chi looked at Ji.

Ji stood up and said righteously, "I only came here today to check on your injuries. I heard that you came back covered in blood after leaving. So, is this my fault? You still want to question my sincerity towards you. If I had known this, I shouldn't have come."

Su Rou's eyes were deep. "But you didn't care about me this much before. Even when I came back from suppressing the bandits, you didn't even show up."

Ji Shi still wanted to argue for himself, "That...that's because..."

Su Chi interrupted them, "Mother, come out, I want to talk to you."

Ji Shi was still unwilling to give up and wanted to say something to Su Rou, "You..."

Before Ji could finish his words, Su Chi dragged him out.

Only Su and Su Rou were left in the room.

Su sat down beside her bed, "What's going on? I rarely see you lose your temper in front of me."

Su Rou said, "It's not a big deal. Ji wanted to be the first lady and she approached me once before, but I clearly rejected her."

Su was confused, "Why would she want to be the first lady and ask you for help?"

After saying this, Su paused and said, "Oh, I want to borrow your position in the mansion."

Su Rou looked at Su Shi and asked, "Are you planning to expand your business, mother?"

Su smiled and said, "It's not a matter of whether I want to or not. It depends on whether your father is willing and whether he has the intention to do so."

Su Rou was indifferent. "If you want, I will help you. Ji Shi is not my mother, why should I help her?"

Su tapped her forehead with her index finger. "Don't dwell on these things. Find a suitable husband tomorrow and bring him back for your father and me to see. I think Prince Yu is a good choice."

Su Rou: “…”

If her mother hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten that Gong Yu was still living in the general's mansion.

What did he say to A Niang when she was away?

Looking at A Niang's expression, she didn't believe that Gong Yu didn't do anything.

Su Rou said, "Even if I am willing, will His Royal Highness Prince Yu agree? Moreover, if I really marry Prince Yu with my status, how difficult will it be for me to return to the Southern Kingdom with him? My father is... the ultimate culprit who caused the entire country to submit to the Northern Kingdom."

Su said, "I've talked to him a few times and I think he's not bad. He's an upright person and wouldn't do anything to bully a woman. I didn't see him around you all the time before, but lately I've seen him around quite a bit. If you think Prince Yu is a good person, you can try to make him want to stay with you. Even if you do marry into the Southern Kingdom, he'll definitely protect you for the sake of your relationship."

Su Rou: “…”

Is she really my biological mother?

He even asked her to seduce Gong Yu? !

Her face remained calm, but she was genuinely horrified.

She is cowardly! She is afraid!

Gong Yu is a ruthless person.

Unless she dies, she will not seduce Gong Yu.

Su reached out and pinched her cheek. "You, take good care of yourself for the time being. I have some ginseng in my yard that your father gave me. I'll give it to you to replenish your body."

Su Rou responded sullenly.

Su tucked her in, ordered someone to boil some medicine, and watched her drink it before leaving.

Su Rou was lying on the bed alone, the room was quiet. She felt that her mother was the best. She gave her the ginseng her father gave her just as he said.

Su Rou felt someone touching her hair, and she quickly stood up. Gong Yu sat quietly beside her bed and played with her hair.

She suddenly felt a warmth on her lips, and when she raised her hand, she saw blood stains on her white fingertips.

She noticed Gong Yu's breathing hitched, and hurriedly came forward, "Is my face so alluring? I made you bleed from the nose."

Su Rou pushed him, "Stop flattering yourself! I just drank a bowl of ginseng soup in one breath!"
