Chapter 966: Chapter 964 Su Hao’s Wedding Date is Set
Yue Lian smiled, her pearly white teeth glinting in the moonlight, “Uncle Chen, ever since the day I was to marry him, I knew his heart could not be brought back, yet what I desire is not his heart, but his happiness!”
The man beside Su Yingxue was a living Zi Wei, not a soulless, walking corpse.
She wanted Zi Wei to live a happy life, for his happiness was her happiness too.
And what was the harm in being by Su Yingxue’s side?
To be his wife in this lifetime, her wish had already come true.
Some can give their hearts and take them back.
But for others, like Zi Wei, who embedded his heart into Su Yingxue’s body, even if Su Yingxue were to die, his heart would not return.
How could such a person leave Su Yingxue behind?
Su Yingxue sent Zi Wei to monitor Lu Ying, as well as the people she contacted.
She felt there must be something to gain!
But lying in bed, she still couldn’t sleep.
She thought of Chu Yihan.
Women are not allowed in the military camp.
So, she could only wait outside the military camp and call Mo Qi out to ask, “May I see His Highness?”
Seeing her look for His Highness, Mo Qi nodded happily, “Certainly, Princess, just wait, I will go call His Highness, he will definitely hurry over!”
If Su Yingxue came, even if he were in the midst of a beautiful dream, he would wake up to see her!
“Wait! At this late hour, His Highness should be resting, right?” Su Yingxue saw Mo Qi’s eagerness as if he was going to wake Chu Yihan up.
“His Highness just fell asleep half an hour ago. These days, he personally checks on the troops, arranges battle plans with his officers, and discusses matters of ascension. He is always running between the imperial palace and the military camp, and has lost a lot of weight from exhaustion. He has just managed to rest today,” said Mo Qi, inadvertently saying too much.
Su Yingxue quickly stopped him, “No! Don’t disturb His Highness, I’ll come back tomorrow! You mustn’t wake him! He has worked so hard and has only just rested. If he gets woken up, he won’t be able to sleep again, who knows when he will be busy until!”
Su Yingxue’s heart ached for him.
“But you haven’t seen His Highness for so long.”
Mo Qi felt quite troubled, thinking that if Chu Yihan woke up and found out he had missed Su Yingxue because he was sleeping, he would be terribly upset!
“I also miss His Highness, but if he ruins his health from exhaustion, how much will that delay! I don’t want to hold back His Highness, let him finish his duties. We still have a lifetime to spend together! Don’t tell His Highness that I’ve been here. These tonic medicines you should brew for His Highness to drink, and remember to remind him to rest amidst his busyness!”
Su Yingxue handed a bundle of medicine she had prepared to Mo Qi, who nodded, “The Princess is thoughtful.”
But he had one more personal matter to ask about, “The medicine I requested, has the Princess made any progress?”
Mo Qi’s pitch-black eyes sparkled with anticipation, as eager as a man in the desert longing for water.
Su Yingxue nodded, “I have collected some of the herbs, but I am still waiting for Sister Rong Sheng’s response. I asked her to deliberate and confirm the efficacy before I can give it to you.”
Mo Qi, having served Chu Yihan loyally for many years and also treating her well, Su Yingxue naturally had to be extremely cautious and couldn’t harm him.
Mo Qi grinned with a smile, “Thank you, Princess!”
The more excited and expectant he was, the more Su Yingxue could feel how deeply his heart was wounded.
The depths of emotional pain must be such that he was so eager to forget, to start anew, right?

The wedding date for Su Hao and Wu Jinyan was set.
Chu Yihan sent the Imperial Astronomer to the Marquis’s Manor, specially choosing the nearest auspicious day, the eighteenth of March.
