Her maid, Lian’er, cried with heart-wrenching sobs. “Princess, please hold on. Don’t die…”
“If you want to save your princess, leave the room first and stop crying here!” Su Yingxue drove her away.
Lian’er was reluctant to leave Sheng Ping’s side, but under Su Yingxue’s stern gaze, her trembling heart forced her to bite her lip and exit the room.
Su Yingxue checked Sheng Ping’s pulse, administered acupuncture, and then entered the Medicine King Valley to retrieve Blood Clotting Grass. After grinding it into powder, she fed it to Sheng Ping.
She proceeded to cleanse Sheng Ping’s body, removing remnants of the afterbirth and applied medicinal herbs to stop the bleeding.
With these tasks completed, Su Yingxue fed the medicine Sheng Ping that she had prepared earlier in the day.
Gradually, Sheng Ping regained consciousness after consuming the medicine. Her pale lips moved as if she intended to speak.
Su Yingxue advised her, “Your body is weakened now. Don’t speak. Lie down and rest. I’ll stay here tonight. You’ll experience pain, but you must endure it.”
Sheng Ping’s tear-filled eyes conveyed gratitude since she couldn’t speak.
When Su Yingxue saw this, her heart ached even more.
Although Su Yingxue had provided Sheng Ping with numerous potent medicines, she understood that while these could heal the body, they couldn’t mend a broken heart.
After ensuring Sheng Ping’s well-being, Su Yingxue stormed out of the room and angrily shouted at Chu Yihan, “Despicable scoundrel!”
Chu Yihan furrowed his brows and retorted, “What are you talking about? Her child has nothing to do with me.”
“How could it not? If it weren’t for your child, why did you bring me here in the middle of the night for her abortion? Do you have any idea how many times she’s been through this? If I hadn’t arrived in time this instance, she might not have survived!” Su Yingxue’s eyes were bloodshot, and she clenched her fists. She was itching to pummel Chu Yihan if she could.
She wanted to give this b*stard a good beating!
He treated a weak woman like this!
Two words were written on Chu Yihan’s cold face. He was wronged.
He restrained Su Yingxue’s fist, which was audibly cracking from the pressure, and spoke in a solemn tone, “Her situation has nothing to do with me, but her parents entrusted her life to me on their deathbeds. That’s why I brought you here to save her.”
Listening to Chu Yihan’s explanation, Su Yingxue’s emotions became more complicated, but she remained convinced that Chu Yihan was nothing but a vile scoundrel!
Always surrounded by beautiful women!
There was Hong Lian before, and now there was the pitiable Sheng Ping.
Perhaps the tense atmosphere between the two of them was too scary. After Lian’er finished taking care of Sheng Ping, she knelt in front of Su Yingxue and cried as she explained, “Miss, please don’t be angry. Our princess’s child truly has no relation to Your Highness. Furthermore, Your Highness has never set foot in the princess’s residence until today.”
Su Yingxue’s frown deepened, and she asked, “Then who is your princess…”
“Five years ago, the Yue Kingdom was annihilated, and the royal family suffered heavy losses. Before the late Emperor’s passing, he exchanged the imperial seal for the princess’s life, pleading with Your Highness to bring the princess to the Great Cheng Dynasty to save her life,” Lian’er explained in a calm voice.
In that instant, Su Yingxue suddenly recalled that there was indeed a princess in the Great Cheng Dynasty. She wasn’t of royal blood but rather a princess from a fallen nation.
And the Yue Kingdom had been conquered by Chu Yihan himself five years ago. It had now become a part of the Great Cheng Dynasty’s territory.
Upon closer consideration, Sheng Ping did indeed have a connection with Chu Yihan, yet her maid had confirmed that the child was not his.
As Su Yingxue gazed at Chu Yihan, her feelings became even more intricate.
Chu Yihan saw that she had finally stopped beating him up, so he pulled her to sit down and patiently explained, “Just now, her maid came seeking help. She said that the princess’s life was in danger. That’s why I brought you here. I did not know about her exact condition..”
