Chapter 1431: 1426: Xiao Yu Refuses to Let Anyone See MiaoyanChapter 1431: Chapter 1426: Xiao Yu Refuses to Let Anyone See Miaoyan
“Old Third’s daughter-in-law, please rise, we can discuss the matter after the emperor and Your Majesty have dined,” Su Qingzhi said, his eyes carrying an air of authority, evidently trying to stop her.
Wu Jinyan understood her grandfather’s intentions and hurriedly helped herself up from her kneeling position, walking over to Madam Yin’s side and whispering, “Auntie, please get up. The emperor and the empress have traveled a long way; let’s discuss everything later.”
When they came to discuss, it would probably be more tactful than Madam Yin.
“Father, it is not that your daughter-in-law is creating trouble without cause, but she cannot endure it any longer.”
With reddened eyes, Madam Yin knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Qingzhi before getting up, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue and knelt before them, “I miss my daughter dearly; please, emperor and Your Majesty, allow me to see my daughter.”
“Bang—”
A teacup beside Su Yingxue was flipped over, spilling tea on her bright red phoenix robe. A hint of guilt flashed in her eyes as she hastily spoke, “Auntie, please get up!”
She and Su Chenyang moved to help Madam Yin, but Madam Yin’s attitude was extremely resolute, as if she knew something, “Your Majesty, I know Miaoyan may have met with misfortune, but… I ask for nothing else, just to see her once more, even if the Xiao family intends to divorce her or drive her out, and there is her child, our Su family should at least get to see our own flesh and blood, right?”
Su Yingxue’s heart ached even more, “Miaoyan’s child…”
Now, no one knew where they were.
Miaoyan might have already met with disaster.
How could she let her aunt see her?
“Old Third’s daughter-in-law, Xiao Yu has already arrived in Jiang Du City, how could you not be able to see Miaoyan? Don’t listen to those rumors outside, get up quickly, don’t make it difficult for Your Majesty and the emperor!”
Su Qingzhi scolded in a low voice, ordering Su Chenyang to help the woman up immediately.
Su Chenyang tried to soothe her as he exerted his strength to help Madam Yin up.
Madam Yin cried bitterly, raising her voice, “Father, you cannot understand my feelings. Miaoyan has married far away; those rumors, if even one of them were true and hurt her, they would torment me immensely! Even though Xiao Yu has already arrived at Qilin Garden, I tried to visit Miaoyan several times but was refused each time! If he’s not feeling guilty, why won’t he let me see Miaoyan?”
As she spoke, Madam Yin gripped Su Yingxue’s hand tightly, her eyes full of hope, “Your Majesty, I caught a brief glimpse of Miaoyan yesterday, on Xiao Yu’s carriage, but I couldn’t enter Qilin Garden; please, Your Majesty, be the judge for me and allow me a visit with my daughter!”
“What? You saw Miaoyan?” Now it was Su Yingxue’s turn to be surprised. Had Xiao Yu found her?
If not for Chu Yihan holding her, Su Yingxue would have rushed to Qilin Garden to find Xiao Yu immediately.
But Chu Yihan calmed her down, then had the Su family persuade Madam Yin, telling Su Yingxue alone before the meal, “Don’t go looking for Xiao Yu yet, wait for me to summon him.”
“Why?” Su Yingxue was somewhat angry, “If Xiao Yu has found Miaoyan, why didn’t he send someone to tell us first? This is too much!”
Miaoyan was her sister, the Su family’s daughter, a member of the Marquis’s Manor—how worried she must be!
Xiao Yu had found her but hadn’t told her, and if she saw Miaoyan, she would certainly give Xiao Yu a beating.
“Xiao Yu, after a battle, has changed drastically; his methods are much more bloody than before at the Xiao family.”
There were some things, Chu Yihan couldn’t yet handle Xiao Yu openly; he could only tell Su Yingxue in private.
“Her temperament has changed drastically…,” Su Yingxue sighed lightly. “After experiencing such an ordeal, it’s inevitable that she changed, but Auntie misses Miaoyan so much, and I miss her too! If she were in Qilin Garden, of course we would want to see her!”
She didn’t know what Xiao Yu was up to!
“I will summon Xiao Yu tomorrow; everything will be planned after we meet,” Chu Yihan said as he gently stroked Su Yingxue’s head.
Su Yingxue obediently nodded, “Okay, I’ll listen to my husband.”
Since there weren’t as many restrictions as in the palace, Su Yingxue playfully tugged on Chu Yihan’s sleeve and acted coquettishly, her cheeks enticingly rosy.
Chu Yihan was also moved and bent down to kiss her.
In Qilin Garden, within the picturesque courtyard, lay two severely injured people, while Xiao Yu continued to command their flogging.
From a distance, Mu Qianya smelled the blood and frowned as she stood at the gate of the courtyard. She asked Feng Ling, “What’s going on? What is Xiao Yu doing to them again?”
Hiding behind Mu Qianya, Feng Ling couldn’t see Xiao Yu and spoke softly, “Miss, it’s said that they are two servants who guarded Miss Miaoyan and were punished by the head of the Xiao family because Miss Miaoyan cleverly lifted the carriage curtain and almost escaped. Also, I heard that Miss Miaoyan’s mother came yesterday seeking to see her and was driven away by the head of the Xiao family.”
Mu Qianya was shocked for a moment; Miaoyan’s mother was also Xiao Yu’s mother-in-law.
He didn’t even see his own mother-in-law.
“Miss, don’t you think the head of the Xiao family is a bit too frightening? He doesn’t allow Miss Miaoyan to see anyone but you, not even her own mother, as if he’s afraid Miss Miaoyan might do something,” Feng Ling shivered at the thought, feeling a chill that was too terrifying.
Mu Qianya curved her lips slightly, “If it hadn’t been for me rescuing Miaoyan and her dependence on me, I wouldn’t have been able to see her. But Xiao Yu prevents the Su family from meeting Miaoyan because he doesn’t want her to be taken away.”
Mu Qianya empathetically thought, if it were the one she loved who had suffered the same plight as Miaoyan and were then unexpectedly found after a life-or-death separation, she wouldn’t want her beloved to leave her side either.
She had read such scenarios in books.
However, Xiao Yu’s thoughts were not easily guessed, and his behaviors were not something just anyone could carry out.
“Ah——”
A loud scream drew everyone’s attention.
Miaoyan was leaning out the window, crying out, “Bad man! You killed again! You killed again! Big bad man!”
“Yan’er.” Xiao Yu’s face turned abruptly grave.
Unable to just stand outside watching, Mu Qianya quickly entered the house to help Xiao Yu calm Miaoyan down, to prevent her from crying her eyes out or lashing out at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu sat in his wheelchair, his eyes menacing and blood rising visibly in them.
Xiao Qingyu softly spoke at his side, “Brother, you frightened your sister-in-law. Perhaps spare their lives this time, and we can just replace them with another set of servants.”
Xiao Qingyu could not bear to watch Xiao Yu administer such severe punishments, but he also didn’t dare to oppose him.
At this moment, if he were to fault Miaoyan in the slightest, he would probably be severely beaten by Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu’s wheelchair was pushed by Zhuīyǐng to Miaoyan’s side. He clearly cherished her but held her close and warned in a low voice, “Yan’er, you can’t leave me. No one can take you away. Promise me, next time don’t think about sneaking away. Let’s not let anyone see you, okay?”
