After the arranged marriage, I pampered the sickly regent.

Su Yan clenched her fist, thinking about the rumors she had heard about Ye Qingwu recently.

In the past, when His Highness the Regent saw him, although his attitude was not exactly cold, he was not completely indifferent either. But now, it was as if he didn't exist.

What exactly are the abilities of this regent's wife that make everyone around her treat her with such special regard?

Thinking of this, Su Yan felt even more unwilling.

Given the current situation, it's impossible for her to go to the Regent's Palace anymore. If she incurred the displeasure of her master and His Highness the Regent, she would probably have even less chance to get close to him.

If we exclude these places, the only place we can get close to is the Duke's Mansion.

Perhaps she can get some information about Ye Qingwu from the Duke's mansion.

In the Duke's Mansion.

Looking at Ye Qingzhu, who was extremely weak, Su felt heartbroken. "My perfectly healthy daughter, how did she become like this after just one trip?"

"Qingzhu, don't worry. Your father has already asked someone to invite the legendary Valley Master of Medicine King Valley. If he comes, he will definitely be able to cure your illness."

Ye Qingzhu lay on the bed, feeling as if something was gripping her heart tightly, causing her severe pain.

Along with the pain came the words Ye Qingzhu spoke in the Imperial Study.

She gripped Su's hand tightly and said hastily, "Mother, you must find a way to save me, I don't want to die."

Mrs. Su nodded quickly.

"Qingzhu, don't worry, Mother will definitely find a way. Before that, tell me what happened while you were in the Imperial Study?"

After Su asked her questions, Ye Xuan also came in, clearly wanting to know what had happened to Ye Qingzhu.

"It's Ye Qingwu."

Ye Qingzhu said angrily, "I don't know what kind of sorcery she used to curse me to only have one month to live."

"That brat Ye Qingwu is so audacious! And what about the Emperor? Didn't he stop her?"

Su felt puzzled by Ye Qingzhu's words.

In her opinion, no matter how arrogant Ye Qingwu was, he wouldn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the Emperor.

"At that time, in addition to the Emperor, the Imperial Preceptor and His Highness the Regent were also in the Imperial Study."

"Mother, you must think of a way."

Ye Xuan frowned, sensing something was wrong from Ye Qingzhu's words.

"And what about the Imperial Advisor? What is his opinion on this?"

"Yes, Qingzhu, you should tell us everything quickly so that your father can be saved."

Ye Qingzhu lowered her head, recalling what had happened back then.

"It seems the Imperial Advisor has tacitly agreed with Ye Qingwu's words."

Su staggered, quite frightened by Ye Qingzhu's words, and began to cry while hugging Ye Qingzhu.

Ye Yuanfeng stood outside and had obviously overheard the conversation between Ye Qingzhu, Ye Xuan, and the Su family. He clenched his fists in anger.

This Ye Qingwu, even though she has already severed ties with the Duke's mansion, still dares to harm the people in the mansion.

"Second Young Master, where are you going?"

Seeing Ye Yuanfeng storm off, the servant beside him quickly chased after him.

"Let's go settle accounts with Ye Qingwu," Ye Yuanfeng said angrily. As long as he could drag Ye Qingwu to the Prince's Mansion, the curse on Qingzhu would definitely be lifted.

Seeing that he couldn't stop Ye Yuanfeng, the servant hurriedly went to report to Ye Xuan.

"Master, something terrible has happened! The eldest son has gone to the Regent's Palace."

"Hurry up and bring him back!" Ye Xuan was already annoyed by the curse Ye Qingzhu mentioned, and the fact that the Imperial Advisor did not stop it at that time meant that he tacitly approved of what would happen.

The Emperor has been quite dissatisfied with him lately, and if Ye Yuanfeng were to cause any more trouble at the Regent's Palace, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At that moment, a guard's voice came from outside reporting.

"Master, Miss Su from the Minister's residence has arrived."

"Miss Su?" Ye Xuan hesitated slightly. Wasn't the person he sent to invite the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley? Why was the person who came a young lady from the Minister's Mansion?

Already anxious, Madam Su didn't care about anything else and said to Ye Xuan, "Master, I heard that this Miss Su is the disciple of the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley. I suppose she came here on the Valley Master's orders."

"Why don't you let Miss Su take a look at Qingzhu?"

Hearing Su's words, Ye Xuan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed considerably. He raised his hand and said to the guard standing there, "Go and invite Miss Su here."

Su Yan was quickly taken to the room where Ye Qingzhu was.

After taking Ye Qingzhu's pulse, Su Yan's eyes showed a hint of confusion.

Standing there, seeing that Su Yan remained silent for a long time, Madam Su felt uneasy and cautiously asked her, "Miss Su, how is my Qingzhu now?"

"Judging from the pulse, there is nothing abnormal."

"How could there be no abnormality?" Ye Qingzhu became excited upon hearing Su Yan's words.

"Ye Qingwu made it very clear that I only have one month to live."

Seeing Ye Qingzhu's desperate outburst, Su Yan was clearly taken aback by her words.

She looked in Ye Qingzhu's direction and tentatively asked, "Madam Jiang..."

"Just call me by my name."

Ye Qingzhu felt very awkward as soon as she heard the title "Madam Jiang," saying that she had not seen Jiang Wenjin since the incident in the courtyard.

For him, she could even be said to have taken a risk.

But now that something has happened, Jiang Wenjin has chosen to disappear at this time. Sure enough, this man is an ungrateful wretch.

"Ye Qingzhu, are you saying these things are related to Ye Qingwu?"

Su Yan changed her form of address and asked Ye Qingzhu.

"Of course, Miss Su, I've heard that you and His Highness the Regent are childhood sweethearts, so you'd better be careful."

"Ye Qingwu is skilled not only in unorthodox methods, but also in bewitching magic."

Ye Qingzhu grew angrier the more she thought about it.

"Green Bamboo."

As Ye Qingzhu steered the conversation toward matters of witchcraft, Su Shi realized that although Miss Su had been invited to treat him, she was ultimately an outsider.

If this were to actually spread, who knows how much turmoil it would cause.

In response, Ye Qingzhu was about to say something even more unconventional when someone quickly spoke up to stop her.

"Miss Su, I know you are the disciple of the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley. You must find a way to save my Qingzhu." Having no other choice, Madam Su could only plead with Su Yan.

Su Yan nodded gently and replied to Madam Su, "Please rest assured, Madam Duchess, since I am skilled in medicine, I will do my best to treat her. However, Ye Qingzhu's condition is somewhat different, and I need to find out the cause before I can treat her."

Just then, a gasp of surprise suddenly rang out from the crowd.

The maid standing inside the room suddenly pointed in Ye Qingzhu's direction and let out a terrified cry.

"Look, a lot of black things have suddenly appeared on the back of the second young lady's hand."

People around immediately stepped back, fearing it might be some strange illness that could endanger their lives.

"These are the black lines Ye Qingwu was talking about!"

Ye Qingzhu exclaimed in alarm.

When she shouted to those around her, no one dared to step forward.
