The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

Chapter 31 Like a Brother, Like a Father

Su Yuanzhou, the seventh elder of the Su family, is the only pharmacist and physician in the Su family.

By the time the servant had brought the Seventh Elder to the Ming Courtyard, half an hour had passed. Su Muxin and Su Muze were covered in several more bloodstains. Yang Xinyi had no choice but to have someone bring ropes and tie them up.

When Su Yuanzhou walked into the room and saw this scene, his expression was stunned for a moment, but before he could ask, Su Huaiming hurried back.

"Madam, what happened? I heard from the servant that Xin'er and Ze'er were in trouble. What happened?"

Before anyone arrived, the voice had arrived first. Su Huaiming hurried in while asking loudly. However, when he saw the situation his child was in, he was immediately horrified. He glared at the servants in the room and cursed angrily:

"Who did this? You're so bold as to actually kidnap the young lady and young master! Do you believe I'll sell you all out? You're a bunch of tactless bastards! Hurry up and untie the young lady and young master!"

As he spoke, Su Huaiming was about to go forward and untie the ropes for Su Muxin and Su Muze. However, when he passed by Yang Xinyi, a delicate hand grabbed his ear.

"It was my wife who had them kidnapped. Are you planning to sell me out as well?"

A faint voice sounded in his ears, scaring Su Huaiming so much that he shivered.

"Ouch...it hurts...Madam, please be gentle, be gentle..." Su Huaiming begged for mercy while asking doubtfully, "But Madam, why did you let people tie up Xin'er and Ze'er? Aren't you the one who loves them the most?"

"Sometimes, I really want to ask you..." Yang Xinyi let go of her hand, glared at Su Huaiming with helplessness and disgust, and complained: "Are those eyes on your face just for show? If so, could you please donate them to someone in need? Don't be like a blind person every day, unable to see anything."

After saying that, Yang Xinyi was too lazy to bother with Su Huaiming anymore. She walked around him and looked at Su Yuanzhou behind him. She said anxiously, "Seventh Elder, please check on Xin'er and Ze'er. I don't know what happened, but after dark, they suddenly became unable to speak, and their bodies started to itch for no apparent reason. I really had no choice but to have them tied up, worried that they would continue to scratch themselves."

"what?!"

After hearing what Yang Xinyi said, Su Huaiming realized the seriousness of the matter and understood why his wife, who always loved her children, would have their child tied up.

Seeing the painful expressions of Su Muxin and Su Muze, Su Huaiming was almost heartbroken. He quickly turned around and grabbed Su Yuanzhou's hand, begging, "Seventh Elder, hurry up, please save Xin'er and Ze'er."

"Don't be impatient."

Su Yuanzhou first comforted Su Huaiming and Yang Xinyi, then walked up to Su Muxin and Su Muzhe and carefully checked their conditions.

However, whether he took the brother and sister's pulse or used his mental power to examine their bodies, he did not find any problems.

Su Yuanzhou couldn't help but frown in confusion. He murmured in confusion: "Strange, why is this happening?"

Su Huaiming and Yang Xinyi didn't hear clearly what Su Yuanzhou said, but from his expression, they could tell that the situation was probably not good.

"Seventh Elder, what happened? Are Xin'er and Ze'er poisoned? What kind of poison did they get? How to cure it?" Yang Xinyi asked anxiously.

However, Su Yuanzhou shook his head in shame and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know. I checked and Xin'er and Ze'er showed no signs of poisoning. I couldn't find any problems at all."

"How is this possible?!" Yang Xinyi refused to believe it. She asked loudly, "If they weren't poisoned, why did Xin'er and Ze'er suddenly become unable to speak? And why did they itch all over their bodies?"

Su Muxin and Su Muzhe, who had originally thought they were finally saved after seeing the Seventh Elder, now felt hopeless and overwhelmed with despair.

In fact, as early as when the poison took effect, Su Muxin and Su Muzhe had already guessed that it was Su Qingning who poisoned them. After all, it was only Su Qingning who had come into contact with them and had a conflict with them today.

At this moment, they regretted not bothering Su Qingning today. At the same time, they finally realized how terrifying Su Qingning was; she was able to prevent even the Seventh Elder from detecting the poison she had administered. No, to be more precise, even the Seventh Elder was unable to detect the poison she had administered.

Su Muxin and Su Muzhe gasped inwardly. They began to wonder if Su Qingning was really only ten years old. She must be a monster! Why else could the Seventh Elder, a senior physician and mid-level pharmacist, not detect the poison she had administered? Was her poison technique truly so terrifying? It was truly terrifying!

"I'm sorry, I'm not very skilled." The Seventh Elder felt very ashamed. He kindly offered advice to Yang Xinyi and Su Huaiming, "Why don't you go to the palace and ask Master Ning Yi to come and treat you? Perhaps he can find out the cause and heal Xin'er and Ze'er."

Master Ning Yi was the only master pharmacist and physician in the imperial capital. If there was an illness that the Seventh Elder couldn't cure, then perhaps Master Ning Yi was the only one in the entire imperial capital who could.

"Okay, I'll go to the palace to find Master Ning Yi now." Su Huaiming didn't dare to delay. As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out immediately.

However, at this time, Su Muxin and Su Muzhe no longer had any hope, because without hope, there would be no more despair.

Moreover, they knew that this was just a warning and lesson given to them by Su Qingning. She didn't want their lives. She probably just wanted to torture them for a while and make them suffer!

After thinking it through, Su Muxin and Su Muzhe stopped struggling. They looked at each other and saw regret in each other's eyes. They also made a decision: that is, they would never provoke Su Qingning again.

……

At the same time, in the imperial study of the palace, a few side dishes and a pot of wine were placed on a table.

"Lintian, come, sit down." Emperor Mo Linyuan looked at Mo Lintian with a smile and said happily, "Since you are coming to the palace today, I have specially ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare a few of your favorite dishes. Come and try them and see if they suit your taste."

Mo Linyuan

The eunuch chief, Eunuch Wu, watching Mo Linyuan treat Mo Lintian so well, couldn't help but sigh that His Royal Highness Lin Wang was still as favored as ever! You know, the Imperial Study is where the Emperor reviews memorials and handles official business. Normally, people are not allowed to dine there. Not even the Crown Prince and the most favored concubine have this honor.

In Eunuch Wu's memory, every time Mo Linyuan made an exception it was because of Mo Lintian. Rather than saying that the relationship between them was a brotherhood, it would be better to say that the way they got along was more like that of father and son.

After all, Mo Linyuan is thirty years older than Mo Lintian, and the late emperor passed away early. Mo Lintian was almost raised by Mo Linyuan himself. Isn't he like a brother and a father?
