Chapter 31
She knew the answer the moment the carriage entered the palace.
Su Yurou’s carriage had already stopped at the palace gate.
She didn’t have to come today, but if she wanted to understand Su Yingxue, she had to meet this genius doctor.
She saw the carriage that was bringing the genius doctor to a stop and a person dressed in black from head to toe alighted. She couldn’t even see the person’s face clearly. She immediately frowned. “Why is it so strange? I can’t even tell if that person is a man or a woman.”
Beside her, Yuan Ruo’s eyes were also filled with disgust. “I heard that many strange people in the world dress like this as if they can’t be seen. Looking at this figure, it’s a woman, but it might be a transvestite!”
Su Yurou snorted lightly. Regardless of whether she was a human or a transvestite, she could forget about leaving the palace alive!
Su Yingxue and Su Yurou walked towards Yunwei Palace under Eunuch Qin’s lead. Eunuch Qin was the head eunuch of Consort Xiang’s Palace. He was slightly older and spoke in a more amiable voice than the eunuch who had delivered the decree in a shrill voice. “Genius Doctor, if you can cure the consort, your future will be boundless. Not only will the Emperor reward you handsomely, but he will also give you a chance to enter the Imperial Academy of Medicine. The Emperor treasures talents.”
Su Yurou smiled and agreed, “That’s right. The genius doctor’s medical skills are brilliant. He will definitely be able to cure the consort.”
She boasted on behalf of Su Yingxue. If she couldn’t be cured, this sentence would be her death warrant.
Su Yingxue looked straight ahead and asked coldly, “What does it have to do with you that I’m here to treat the consort?”
She treated her like air, the kind that even breathing was a hindrance.
A trace of anger flashed in Su Yurou’s eyes. She raised her chin high and said arrogantly, “I am the daughter of the Marquis of Martial South.”
Su Yingxue’s tone was indifferent. “Oh, it has nothing to do with treating the consort.”
“You!” Su Yurou was suddenly embarrassed by her.
Eunuch Qin hurriedly stepped forward to ease the atmosphere between them. “Genius Doctor, you might not know about this, but you were able to enter the palace to treat Consort Xiang’s illness it’s because of Miss Su’s recommendation. Logically speaking, you should thank her!”
When Su Yurou heard this, she snorted lightly and waited for her to thank her.
However, Su Yingxue did not even look at her. “Oh, I don’t want to thank you.”
Eunuch Qin felt a little awkward.
Su Yurou bit her lip. She remembered that she couldn’t throw a tantrum in the palace, so she endured it.
Su Yingxue and Eunuch Qin walked in front while she cursed viciously from behind, “Who asked you to be Su Yingxue’s people? You deserve to die!”
She would definitely die in the palace!
Consort Xiang’s illness could not be cured!
Su Yurou and Su Yingxue paid their respects to Consort Xiang in the outer hall. Su Yingxue heard a weak voice coming from behind the curtain, “Get up.”
This was not Su Yurou’s first time entering the palace, so she greeted Consort Xiang as if she was familiar with her, “Your Majesty, this divine doctor cured the wife of the capital governor, Lord Qin. His medical skills are brilliant, so he will definitely be able to cure you.”
Consort Xiang seemed to be weak. “Mhm.”
Su Yingxue recalled that in her previous life, Su Yurou was smooth and slick. She had stepped on her, the first daughter, while she had fawned over many high-ranking officials and nobles. Now that she saw how familiar she was with Consort Xiang, Su Yingxue could not help but admire her. She was quite capable!
Coincidentally, she was quite capable after her rebirth.
Su Yingxue told Eunuch Qin, “I will only treat people individually. Those who are not important shall leave.”
Her aura was strong, like a flower on a mountain peak, and her words made people not dare to disobey.
After Eunuch Qin asked Consort Xiang for instructions, he brought Su Yurou out.
Su Yurou’s eyes were cold and merciless. “Let’s see how long you can be arrogant!”
