Chapter 1824: Chapter 1817: This son is extremely boring

“Heng’er, Su Yingxue has agreed for us to be together. Although I’m seriously injured, I have Medicine King Valley, and the medical skills I learned from her. I… can recover quickly.”

Little Ginseng held his face, smiling widely.

With tears in her eyes, clearly feeling sorrowful and broken, yet she forced a smile to comfort him.

Chu Heng buried his head in her neck, his voice slightly hoarse, and uttered, “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

He trusted that she would recover quickly.

Little Ginseng hugged him, and the two rested together until evening.

Before the people at the Marquis’s Manor could react, Chu Heng had already taken her back to the palace. He hid her away, not letting others see, and refused even when Su Yingxue wanted to change her medication.

Su Yingxue laughed in exasperation, pounding on Chu Yihan’s chest as she complained, “He hasn’t even married a wife yet, and he’s already neglecting his mother. This son, truly no fun at all.”

Chu Yihan coughed twice from her pounding, chuckling lowly, “Wasn’t he raised as your treasure?”

Su Yingxue pouted in anger, “Luckily, I have my husband. The son is grown, let him go his own way! It’s no use caring!”

“I fear it’s beyond our control now.” Chu Yihan’s eyes bore a hint of helplessness.

They didn’t return to the palace that night, staying at the Marquis’s Manor, and naturally, the Xiao family would come to visit.

Xiao Yu knew they couldn’t make decisions. In the past, he wouldn’t insist so stubbornly, but this time, for Rong Ning’s sake, Xiao Yu came together with Su Miaoyan. Su Miaoyan knelt and begged Su Yingxue for a long time, refusing to get up.

She cried in distress, “Sister, please let Ningning go, okay? Ningning has had a bitter life, and he’s already struggling. If the Crown Prince still wants his life, can I repay it for him?”

It was she who failed to fulfill her duties as a mother!

It was she who failed to protect her own child, all of this should be borne by her, not by her pitiable Ningning!

Su Yingxue understood that Rong Ning was innocent, but this was not something she could decide.

She pulled Su Miaoyan up from the ground and let her sit beside her, “We are all parents now, but our children have grown up,

If Heng’er were still small, even if I had to hit him, I wouldn’t let him trouble his cousins, but now Heng’er and Ningning are both grown, they know what they are doing and are willing to take responsibility for themselves.”

This was already beyond what their parents could intervene in!

“So no matter how much the Xiao family has done for the imperial court, the emperor and empress will stand idly by, is that it?” A cold, insipid voice sounded, Xiao Yu looked at Su Yingxue and her husband with eyes full of mockery.

Su Yingxue was at a loss for words, Chu Yihan stepped out from behind her, holding her hand, saying to Xiao Yu, “If the situations were reversed, if Rong Ning were the emperor, would Chu Heng have a shred of hope today?”

Xiao Yu gritted his teeth, “You…”

He deeply understood that between the two, who fought like fierce tigers, the losing side would never spare the other.

Rong Ning originally came to assassinate Chu Heng, he wanted Chu Heng’s life!

And now, he was defeated by Chu Heng.

Xiao Yu’s hand gripping the wheelchair was knuckled white, enduring with impotence, “Even if there was a sliver of hope, he wouldn’t grant it? How was it that Ningning was lost back then? Was he not innocent too?”

On this point, Chu Yihan did not refute him.

The Xiao family indeed suffered due to his actions back then. Their marriage ties with the imperial clan and their hold over the Great Cheng Dynasty’s economic lifeline naturally drew the attention of treacherous officials.

The Xiao family’s trio narrowly escaped death, enduring endless hardships.
