Su Yingxue looked at Qin Wan. “Aunt, I remember that the maid Zhifen, who I brought back to the Regional Prince’s Mansion, is a servant from your Marquis’s Manor. She is loyal and quick-witted. Shouldn’t it be fine to ask her to come to the Marquis’s Manor and tell everyone about sister’s illness?”
Qin Wan’s eyes held admiration. “Yes, Zhifen was originally my maidservant. I gave her to Han’er. She’s a smart maid. If Han’er can’t get out of bed, let her report it. We can also be at ease with Han’er’s illness.”
She gave her husband a meaningful look.
“Father, please allow this,” Su Dingwei said, cupping his hands and addressing Su Qingzhi.
“This matter is not difficult. It’s just a maid. I think Your Highness would not object. I also want to know about Han’er’s illness,” Su Qingzhi said, looking at Chu Xiaotian with what seemed like a calm gaze but hid an extremely strong pressure.
He had already said so much. If Chu Xiaotian continued to refuse, then he would have a reason to bring his men to the Regional Prince’s Mansion.
Chu Xiaotian looked at Su Yingxue hatefully and spat at her. “Mind your own business!”
“Grandfather, Han’er’s servant has to take care of her, so I’m afraid she can’t leave. If grandfather wants to ask, I’ll call the others in Han’er’s courtyard to answer,” Chu Xiaotian said coldly.
“You are using this as an excuse. If Han’er is to rest in bed, don’t you have someone to take care of her in your grand Regional Prince’s Mansion? Or is Your Highness hiding something?” Qin Wan was very worried.
Su Dingwei held Qin Wan’s hand, his expression dark. “Your Highness doesn’t even dare to let a maid come out?”
“I did not!” Chu Xiaotian kept denying it.
“Then bring that maid here and let her tell me and everyone in the Marquis’s Manor how Han’er is doing in the Regional Prince’s Mansion?” Su Qingzhi’s voice was heavy.
Chu Xiaotian would never let that maid come!
If she told him about Su Han’s situation, he would lose face in front of the Su family.
Chu Xiaotian just stood there and did not say anything. He could only brace himself.
Su Yingxue clenched her right fist. She was even more worried about Su Han. Zi Wei had gone to the Regional Prince’s Mansion and hadn’t come back yet.
Seeing Su Yingxue like this, Chu Yihan furrowed his brows and said calmly, “Mo Qi, go to the Regional Prince’s Mansion and bring the maid called Zhifen here. I want to see her.”
Mo Qi stepped forward. “I accept your orders!”
“Wait!” Chu Xiaotian stopped Mo Qi and stared at Chu Yihan with wide eyes. “What does Imperial Uncle mean by this? Do you think my Regional Prince’s Mansion is a slave market where you can choose as you please?”
Everyone in the Su family did not speak. When Su Miaoyan wanted to speak, Madam Yin covered her mouth and shook her head.
Su Miaoyan pouted, thinking, “Alright! The Ninth Prince feels sorry for Sister Xue. She won’t tell the truth!”
Chu Yihan was holding the tea that Su Yingxue had brewed for him. He looked calm, but the moment he opened his mouth, it was filled with endless pressure. “Yes, so what?”
Chu Xiaotian’s heart skipped a beat.
Three words!
Chu Yihan had used these words to make him unable to speak!
He, Chu Yihan, was as noble as a god. So what if he treated the Regional Prince’s Mansion as a slave market?
“Mo Qi.” Chu Yihan called out softly.
Mo Qi immediately pushed Chu Xiaotian away and went to do his work.
Su Yingxue looked at Chu Yihan with eyes full of love. He was young, but his status was akin to that of his grandfather. They were both individuals accustomed to conflict and battle, yet he possessed a natural noble aura that inspired admiration and longing in others.
The way he had instructed Mo Qi to go out earlier had touched her..
