He walked up to the empress and held her hand. “Mother, the third brother is in the Imperial Mausoleum. I have already arranged everything for him. The old citizens of the Yue Kingdom have also been appeased. In three years, he can return to Jiang Du City.”

The empress was originally very gratified. “Thank you for your hard work, Ye’er.”

“Mother, do you still want to deal with Su Yingxue?” Chu Chengye looked troubled.

The empress’s face suddenly darkened, and her voice was as cold as ice. “What? Are you still going to plead for that woman? She caused your third brother to be like this! She made your father hate you and even rejected you time and time again. Have you been bewitched by her?”

“No, Mother, 1 only feel that she is, after all, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis’s Manor. Now that Su Hao is guarding the Bamboo Leaf Pass, which is a border fortress, if you kill her, I’m afraid it will lead to enmity with the Marquis’s Manor.” Chu Chengye’s eyes flickered, and his mind wavered.

“I am the empress! Do you still need to fear a mere Marquis’s Manor?” The empress slammed the table angrily. “Ye’er, remember this. Su Yingxue must die! She humiliated me and Xiuwen. Even if she dies a hundred times, it’s not enough!”

Chu Chengye refrained from pleading for Su Yingxue.

But in his heart, he couldn’t bear to see her die.

He had yet to win her heart back.

The woman who had once been obsessed with him should at least have him in her heart, even in death!

In preparation for her upcoming poison duel with Saint Ruan, Su Yingxue locked herself in her room for several days and nights.

She had given strict orders not to be disturbed, not even by Su Dingheng.

However, there was a knock on her door, and Zhilan’s troubled voice sounded, “Miss, the Seventh Prince is here.”

Su Yingxue emerged from the Medicine King Valley. She walked to the door and impatiently said, “Tell him to leave.”

“Su Yingxue, if you don’t come out, don’t regret it!” Chu Chengye ground his teeth.

He had come to see her out of kindness, and she dared to tell him to leave.

“Your Highness, take a left after leaving. Farewell!”

Su Yingxue’s indifference was mixed with a very evident disgust.

What a waste of her time!

“Su Yingxue, come out! 1 have something to tell you,” Chu Chengye exclaimed in frustration.

If it weren’t for her life, he wouldn’t have come here to be treated coldly by Su Yingxue!

Su Yingxue took the red jade soft whip and planned to give Chu Chengye a good whipping after opening the door so that he would no longer have the audacity to harass her.

As soon as he opened the door, he felt an extremely terrifying aura of killing intent in the courtyard, causing the pressure in the entire courtyard to plummet.

“Your Highness?” Her eyes brightened.

The moment Chu Chengye saw Su Yingxue, his heart skipped a beat.

He didn’t know when it had started, but he found it increasingly difficult to control his emotions when he saw her.

Even though she had never pursued him as passionately as before.

However, the light in her eyes was now because she saw Chu Yihan.

Jealousy surged within Chu Chengye. He positioned himself between Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan and unfriendlyly said, “What is Imperial Uncle doing here? Su Yingxue hasn’t married yet, so Imperial Uncle can’t just visit a girl’s residence.”

Chu Yihan’s gaze landed on him, and his icy voice carried a strong sense of authority. “Who gave you the courage to question me?”

Anyone who met Chu Yihan’s gaze either died or was left half-dead.

Chu Chengye had never been on good terms with him, and now the atmosphere became tense. “Su Yingxue had a betrothal with me. It’s only natural for me to come to her place. Imperial Uncle should avoid arousing suspicion..”
