“Yes, yes, yes! That’s it!” Xiao Si seemed a little excited. “Miss Su is truly a genius doctor. You can even discern this!”

Xiao Yu didn’t say anything, but the expression in his eyes indicated his dissatisfaction with Su Yingxue.

Even ordinary doctors could diagnose this.

However, he had been in poor health since childhood. Over the years of illness, his father had always worried that the words of the Taoist priest would come true and that he wouldn’t live past thirty. So, they searched far and wide for renowned doctors, but even so, there was no improvement.

Meanwhile, his mother spent her days in tears, blaming herself for not being able to give him a healthy body.

And himself…

“The Xiao family has a vast business empire. I reckon no less than ten people are serving Young Master Xiao closely, right?” Su Yingxue casually inquired.

It was Xiao Si who replied again. “Yes, I serve young master’s calligraphy and travel. Young master has four personal maids, four people in the accountant’s room, and about ten to twenty people who attend to him daily!”

Su Yingxue took a deep breath. “Just as I suspected.”

Xiao Yu sensed that Su Yingxue’s words held deeper meaning and asked, “What do you mean?”

!!..

“Young Master Xiao has too many people around him. It’s not conducive to your recovery. Why not keep a few loyal ones? The others shouldn’t linger around you. It would be beneficial for your condition.” Su Yingxue released Xiao Yu’s hand and began prescribing him a treatment.

After writing the prescription, Su Yingxue instructed Xiao Yu to follow it for three days before coming to the Marquis’s Manor for a follow-up.

Seeing that Su Yingxue didn’t ask much and didn’t say much, Xiao Yu, not even sure if she understood his symptoms, didn’t quite believe in her medical skills. He took it as a favor to his aunt and immediately left for the Marquis’s Manor.

But Su Miaoyan saw through the situation. She took Su Yingxue’s arm, her eyes probing. “Sister, is Young Master Xiao’s illness not that simple?”

It seemed like something that couldn’t be solved with just a few prescriptions.

Su Yingxue rubbed her head. “It’s so complicated that I don’t even know how to broach the subject.”

If the Xiao family were an ordinary family, she would have told Xiao Yu directly that the people around him were not trustworthy. They had poisoned him since childhood, and his years of illness were caused by the accumulation of toxins.

But he was the young master of the Xiao family, the heir to immense wealth. If she told Xiao Yu, and he caused a commotion upon his return, Marquis’s Manor would not find peace.

She couldn’t be so rash. She needed to think carefully about how to express herself.

In Fengzao Palace, the person Chu Chengye had sent to monitor the entrance of Marquis’s Manor came to inform him that Xiao Yu had left.

The empress had an irreconcilable grudge against Su Yingxue. Chu Xiaotian’s matter had failed to significantly harm Marquis’s Manor and had even allowed them to gain such a huge advantage. This angered her. “Su Yingxue, that little wench, has she colluded with the Xiao family again? She’s taking advantage of everything!”

“It may not be advantageous this time, Mother. The situation of the Xiao family is complex. If Su Yingxue dares to meddle, she won’t emerge unscathed. Besides, my Ninth Imperial Uncle has always cared about Su Yingxue. No matter what, I must inform my uncle about her interaction with Xiao Yu.”

A hint of malevolence flashed in Chu Chengye’s eyes. After enduring so much at Su Yingxue’s hands, Chu Chengye had learned to be patient. When he had his power, he would seek out Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue to avenge himself!

That night, in Noble Consort Xiao’s palace.

When Granny Song approached Noble Consort Xiao, she found Noble Consort Xiao reclining on the chaise lounge, engrossed in reading a romance novel written by Chu Jinling..
