“What can Your Highness do? Are you planning to throw people out of the Marquis’s Manor?” Su Yingxue winked playfully, seemingly eager for Chu Yihan’s response.
“I can do that,” Chu Yihan told her with certainty.
On the day the Marquis of Martial South took a concubine, the Ninth Prince threw him and his concubine out of the Marquis’s Manor. That scene must have been spectacular, and her father and Liu Shulan must have been in a sorry state.
However, she would never do something that would tarnish Chu Yihan’s reputation.
So she bowed slightly. “Thank you for your good intentions, Your Highness. However, 1 was the one who suggested this matter, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Chu Yihan looked at her intelligent eyes, which were flowing with a gem-like luster. No matter how he looked at it, she didn’t look like someone who could be bullied. Instead, she looked like someone who was in control of the situation.
Chu Yihan couldn’t help but be curious about her intentions.
Su Yingxue couldn’t bear to hide it from him for too long, nor could she bear to let her brother watch for too long.
When Liu Shulan’s bridal sedan arrived at the entrance of the Marquis’s Manor, she and Su Hao went out to welcome them.
Su Dingheng gave Liu Shulan enough face. It was a two-meter-wide sedan chair with eight carriages. Although it was a concubine, the scene was not much smaller than a wife.
Beside the bridal sedan, Su Jinxuan, who hadn’t shown up for days, stood in a dignified manner.
He was dressed in a black robe with a complicated and exquisite pattern embroidered with gold and silver threads on his chest. The long fringe on his forehead covered half of his eyes, but it couldn’t hide the gloomy expression in his narrow and thin eyes.
He walked up to Su Dingheng, cupped his fists, and said in a clear voice, “Congratulations, Father. You can finally reunite with mother and relieve the decades-long yearning.”
Su Dingheng patted his shoulder. “Well said, Xuan’er. After so many years, 1 can finally bring you and your mother into the Marquis’s Manor.”
His heart was filled with love for Liu Shulan and guilt for Su Jinxuan.
They were both his children. Su Hao and Su Yingxue were raised in luxury in the Marquis’s Manor, Su Jinxuan had never set foot in it. It was a knot in his heart for many years, and because of this, he cherished Liu Shulan even more.
Su Yurou was overjoyed when she saw that her mother and brother could enter the manor.
She glared at Su Yingxue and walked to Su Dingheng’s side. She said delicately, “Father, quickly welcome mother into the manor!”
Su Dingheng was overjoyed and only then did he remember, “Quick, enter the manor!”
Su Yurou smiled smugly at Su Yingxue, who responded with a silent smile.
Beside her, Su Hao’s right hand was clenched into a fist, and his voice was cold and deep, “A concubine cannot enter the manor from the main entrance. Did father forget even the most basic etiquette in his joy?”
Su Yingxue’s lips curled up. “If father forgets, someone will naturally remind him. Today, Lord Lin from the Ministry of Rites is also here.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a series of hurried footsteps came from the entrance of the manor.
Su Dingheng was about to lift the sedan curtain when Lin Qin shouted, “Marquis Su, you can’t!”
Liu Shulan had already stepped out of the sedan door with one foot, and Su Dingheng had already taken her hand.
He raised his head and looked at Lin Qin strangely, “Lord Lin, what do you mean?”
He had never offended Lin Qin. Was this person here to cause trouble?
Liu Shulan had a bad premonition. She quietly lifted a corner of the veil and looked coldly at Su Yingxue at the door.
Su Yingxue happened to look at her too and smiled at her. There was no sharpness in her eyes, but it inexplicably weighed on Liu Shulan’s heart.
The purer someone appeared on the surface, the deeper they hid, and the more difficult they were to deal with!
