She subconsciously glared at Su Yurou. “What’s wrong with you?” Didn’t you say that you knew her identity? How could it be Su Yingxue? You lied to me, you’re courting death!”
“Empress…Please spare me, Empress! I don’t know! I didn’t know it was my sister!”
Su Yurou was so scared that she was trembling. Countless words of ‘impossible’ gushed out in her heart!
It was impossible for Su Yingxue to have medical skills. It was impossible for her to be so amazing. She…How could she do all of this?
Impossible!
Chu Mingyuan was stunned.” You…are Shu Li’s daughter?”
Su Yingxue could see a trace of strangeness in Chu Mingyuan’s eyes. He seemed to be very familiar with her mother, and the name he called her was Shu Li.
“Get up.”
Chu Mingyuan sighed softly. A trace of regret flashed across his eyes as he looked at Su Yingxue.
Chu Yihan quickly walked back to Su Yingxue’s side and held her hand. Her hand was a little cold, so Chu Yihan used his palm to warm her.
Su Yingxue looked at him gratefully and then broke free from his hand.
She knelt again and looked at Chu Mingyuan with a sincere gaze. “Emperor, I hid my identity previously and made you suspicious. Consort Xiang and the empress misunderstood. This is my responsibility. I beg for forgiveness.”
Chu Mingyuan’s attitude changed drastically. “Please rise, Su Yingxue! I don’t understand since you have medical skills and opened Tongchang Medical Center, why are you wearing a hood, hiding your identity, and getting involved in the palace conflicts.”
Su Yingxue turned around and swept her cold gaze across Su Yurou and the empress. “If it wasn’t for Su Yurou and the empress being so aggressive, I would have kept my identity a secret.”
“Why?” Chu Mingyuan was even more puzzled.
Even Consort Xiang did not understand, “I heard that the Marquis’s Manor’s daughter, Miss Su, has always had a bad reputation, but you clearly have extraordinary medical skills and can even save my life, so how can you hide?”
She had previously thought that Chu Yihan, who had always been cold and would even reject the emperor’s request, was actually so concerned about a commoner girl and personally escorted her.
So, she was Su Yingxue.
“Consort Xiang is a recluse and knows that my reputation is not good.” Su Yingxue laughed at herself.
Consort Xiang laughed softly, “This has become my fault.”
“I didn’t mean it that way, Consort Xiang. What I meant was that my reputation is not good, even you know about it. If I were to practice medicine at Tongchang Medical Center, who would believe me and come to seek my help? And even if they did, how could I display my medical skills?” Su Yingxue explained helplessly.
She wished to use her real identity and practice medicine honestly, but her reputation and lack of trust from others hindered her.
Not only would it arouse suspicion, but someone had to be willing to entrust her with the illness.
According to Su Yurou and Su Dingheng’s previous plan of flattery and cold violence, she could not do so.
To hide her strength and accumulate strength, she did this.
Hearing her explanation, everyone in the hall sighed.
She had peerless medical skills, but because of her identity, she could not use them.
“Yes, that’s right!” The court physician sighed. “If that’s the case, Miss Su’s actions are reasonable. If not, wouldn’t she be wasting her remarkable medical skills?”
“Exactly!”
“Who would disagree?”
Chu Mingyuan nodded in agreement and stroked his beard. “It’s understandable.”
“What do you mean by understandable? Emperor, I think Su Yingxue is full of schemes and plots!” The empress pointed at Su Yingxue and shouted angrily. A trace of killing intent flashed in her eyes.
Back then, she failed to kill this vile spawn in her mother’s womb.. After so many years, she even threatened her position!
