The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1627 -1620: Su Yingxue Changes Her Tactics

Su Yingxue curved her lips, “If he discarded it, then just keep giving!”

Wandering through the peach blossom grove in the mountain hollow, Su Yingxue roamed as Chu Yihan quietly admired the flowers. She too, quietly admired them. Whenever Chu Yihan picked a flower branch, she picked one even more beautiful than the one in his hand.

When Chu Yihan left, Su Yingxue was still immersed in the beautiful scenery, unaware of his departure.

Chu Yihan handed the flower branch to Mo Qi and quickly left.

Mo Qi, upon reaching the stables at the foot of the mountain with Chu Yihan, exclaimed in surprise, “Miss Su didn’t pester us today; the peach blossoms of Mount Putuo really are beautiful, granting us some peace and quiet.”

Chu Yihan’s face was cold and he did not speak. Su Yingxue had seen him leave, she simply chose not to cling to him as she usually did.

However, he worried about Su Yingxue’s uncharacteristic behavior, thinking it might be ominous, so he quickly returned to the palace with Mo Qi to see his mother.

In the palace of the Noble Consort Shu, she received the peach blossoms sent by Chu Yihan and was overjoyed. She quickly arranged the flower branches in a vase to display them.

Standing by the window and looking at the peach blossoms, Noble Consort Shu’s delicate brows and eyes filled with soft light, “Merely looking at these few flower branches allows one to imagine the widespread beauty of the hills. Yihan, were there many visitors to Mount Putuo today?”

Chu Yihan replied, “Yes, many.”

“It makes sense. In springtime, it’s the favorite thing for young men and women to go out together. You too should invite some good friends and go out more for fun,” Noble Consort Shu said as she looked at Chu Yihan, worry surfacing in her eyes.

Ever since Su Yingxue had taken to pestering Chu Yihan, his school friends had all distanced themselves from him. Those who did rekindle their friendship with him did so for Su Yingxue’s sake, causing him frustration and leaving him in solitude.

She truly felt heartache.

“Your Highness, the Noble Consort, Miss Su has brought peach blossoms for you.”

A senior palace maid, followed by several others, entered Noble Consort Shu’s chamber to pay respect.

Noble Consort Shu hesitated and then approached; the senior palace maid paid her respects respectfully, afterwards presenting two potted peach blossoms.

Noble Consort Shu stepped closer to see that the flower branches seemed freshly picked, but were carefully potted. If she took good care of them, they could bloom even more splendidly.

The senior palace maid added, “Miss Su asks if Your Highness wishes to enjoy the flowers in the palace courtyard. Miss Su has ordered the digging up of ten peach trees and wants to plant them in Your Highness’s courtyard for your leisurely pleasure.”

Noble Consort Shu was even more stunned, “Su… Su Yingxue?”

“Do not bother! Throw them out, at my command!” said Chu Yihan with a disgusted frown, certain that Su Yingxue was up to no good.

Without pestering him, she now sought to pester his mother.

“Your Highness, the Ninth Prince, Miss Su said that this gift is for the Noble Consort. It’s up to her to accept it or not,” the senior palace maid clarified.

Turning to ask the Noble Consort, the senior palace maid said, “Your Highness, the Noble Consort, how would you like to handle these peach blossoms? Miss Su also said if you wish to throw them away, it’s not a problem.”

“This…” Noble Consort Shu hesitated, familiar with Su Yingxue’s domineering ways which never included asking for opinions.

This is the first time she had ever considered her needs.

After looking at Chu Yihan, Noble Consort Shu spoke softly, “Keep the peach blossoms and plant them in the courtyard.”

“As you command, Your Highness,” the senior palace maid immediately proceeded to plant the flowers.

“Mother, you need not degrade yourself in such a way,” Chu Yihan said as he looked at the peach blossoms sent by Su Yingxue, wishing he could burn them all.

“You have just recovered recently; it’s not advisable to oppose her at this moment,” Noble Consort Shu gently patted his shoulder, advising him.

She stepped out of the chamber, looking at the planted peach blossoms with a slight smile on her lips, “Moreover, I do not despise these flowers. I do like the gift from Miss Su.”

No matter whether Su Yingxue’s motives were pure or not, at least this time, her actions did not fill her with fear and loathing.

After dining with the Noble Consort Shu, Chu Yihan was about to rush back to the manor immediately; if he stayed past the closing of the palace gate, he would be punished.

However, this time as he was about to leave, Lan Ling, sent by Chu Mingyuan, informed him, “Miss Su has made a request to the emperor, and His Majesty has specially granted Your Highness permission to accompany the Noble Consort Shu in the palace without being restricted by time. The palace gate will always be open for Your Highness, and from now on, Your Highness need not ask for permission to enter the palace.”

Chu Yihan’s face was expressionless, “Thank you, Imperial Brother, for your grace.”

But as soon as Lan Ling left, a trace of maliciousness appeared in his eyes.

“Su Yingxue, what are you trying to do?”

Chu Yihan was increasingly annoyed with her, seeing her once a day, and yet she managed to interfere with his life twice.

It disgusted him immensely.

“Yihan, this decree from the emperor is actually beneficial for you. You no longer need to tire yourself returning to the manor, and can take a rest. Let me prepare a bowl of medicinal soup for you,” said the Noble Consort Shu, pleased with the decree, and she immediately went to the small kitchen.

After drinking the medicinal soup prepared by the Noble Consort Shu, Chu Yihan left the palace.

Watching his retreating figure, the Noble Consort Shu’s heart was filled with comfort, “Su Yingxue… if you truly are kind to Yihan, how wonderful that would be!”

If it weren’t for such forceful coercion, who wouldn’t like such gentle and submissive care?

Even Mo Qi thought, “Your Highness, Miss Su’s actions have changed quite a bit now, she doesn’t force you like before, it’s good for you.”

Chu Yihan gave Mo Qi a sidelong glance, “Who is she?”

Mo Qi blurted out, “The legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor, Su Yingxue.”

“Fickle.” Chu Yihan’s face was cold, Su Yingxue’s temperament, hot one moment and cold the next, was unpredictable, and who knew what she would do next?

One day she gives two jujubes, will she add something to his food the next day?

She was capable of doing it.

Therefore, he would not fall for it, but would become even more vigilant and cautious of her!

In the Ninth Prince’s Mansion, before Chu Yihan arrived, the supplements and medicinal ingredients sent by Su Yingxue had already arrived.

These were prepared by the people in her manor before she left, ensuring that Chu Yihan would receive a pleasant surprise when he returned home.

Thinking of him receiving her gifts, Su Yingxue hummed a joyful tune along the way.

Riding next to her carriage, Chu Chengye heard her good mood and couldn’t help but ask, “Yingxue, did you enjoy yourself today?”

Through the carriage curtain, Su Yingxue replied, “I did, thank you Seventh Prince for today.”

“You don’t need to be so polite with me. Whenever you want to go out for fun, just let me know, and I’ll find more entertaining places for you,” Chu Chengye said wholeheartedly.

Su Yingxue smiled, “Thank you, Your Highness.”

She maintained her politeness and courtesy, and after Chu Chengye escorted her home, she sent someone to return the favor with a gift.

Chu Chengye, receiving the gift, was naturally overjoyed, not realizing that this was merely Su Yingxue’s politeness and a courteous response.

After she returned home, Long Shuli was busy preparing dinner for her.

Su Yingxue, like a child, sat in the flower hall waiting for the meal, but unexpectedly witnessed a farce.

“Su Hao, are you going out to see her again?”

Outside, Wu Jinyan in a light blue long dress hurriedly chased after a tall figure.
