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

Chapter 1439: Chapter 1434: She Deceived Miaoyan

“The empress wants me to enter the palace to meet her?” Mu Qianya thought in panic, fearing the empress harbored doubts about her and intended to interrogate her in person.

Feng Ling also began to panic, “Miss, what should we do?”

“Has Young Master Xiao Yu sent any message with you?” At this critical moment, Mu Qianya had no choice but to seek Xiao Yu’s advice first.

But Xiao Qingyu shook his head, “How wise the emperor is. Once I entered the palace, I had no chance to speak to my brother. He is still kneeling in Yaoguang Hall.”

Chu Yihan had sent him back first, using him as bait. He knew the only person who could match wits with him was Xiao Yu. Xiao Qingyu’s little tricks were nothing in comparison.

As for Shadow…

Even though he was highly skilled in martial arts, if the empress brought her seventeen, along with a large number of imperial guards, there was no way Shadow alone could keep hold of Su Miaoyan.

Mu Qianya clenched her fists anxiously as Shadow entered Xiao Yu’s courtyard.

Mu Qianya hurriedly followed, “What are you planning to do?”

“The master has ordered that no one should take the madam away.”

If he couldn’t return, he must take Su Miaoyan back to the Xiao family in Hangzhou and lock her in the secret chamber.

“Now, I’m afraid you can’t take her away either. How could there be no one guarding the outside of Qilin Garden?” Mu Qianya guessed that after Xiao Qingyu’s return, the entire Qilin Garden was probably surrounded.

Xiao Qingyu pursed his lips and said, “It was the Imperial Guard Commander Mo Qi who brought me back. He is currently waiting outside the door to escort Miss Mu to the palace. Taking my sister-in-law away now would be like walking into a trap.”

In truth, Xiao Qingyu was quite willing to see Su Miaoyan and Su Yingxue reunited.

After all, Su Yingxue was a genius doctor. Curing Su Miaoyan’s mind and restoring her memory wouldn’t be difficult.

But his brother disagreed.

He was worried about whether the Su family would allow him to stay with Su Miaoyan after she regained her memory, as well as how she would cope with the pain of losing their child.

What was more important was that his brother’s possessiveness over Su Miaoyan had become extremely intense compared to before.

He even stated that if anyone tried to take Su Miaoyan away, he would use the entire Xiao family’s resources to keep her by his side, even if it meant death.

“Taking Miaoyan away is out of the question. The moment we leave, the empress will surely send people to search Qilin Garden again. You also can’t just fight with the empress’s people. The only option now is…”

Mu Qianya had an idea in her mind, but whether it would work depended on Su Miaoyan herself.

Mu Qianya walked into Su Miaoyan’s room, where she was languishing in boredom. As soon as she saw Mu Qianya, she smiled and ran towards her, “Sister Mu, have you come to give me acupuncture?”

She couldn’t leave this place, and the happiest time of her day was when she saw Mu Qianya.

“Miaoyan, I have something to tell you. Will you listen carefully?” Mu Qianya’s voice was extremely gentle, and her almond-shaped eyes were full of softness.

Su Miaoyan’s eyes brimmed with moisture, and her cheeks glowed with cuteness, “Sister Mu, go ahead.”

“Do you miss your family?” Mu Qianya asked softly.

Su Miaoyan suddenly stiffened, “Family…”

She tried hard to remember, but she couldn’t recall who her family was.

Her mind was completely blank.

Knowing she couldn’t remember, Mu Qianya continued, “But Miaoyan, you miss Brother Daniu, don’t you?”

Su Miaoyan immediately nodded excitedly, “Yes, yes! I miss Brother Daniu so much! I really want to see him!” Her expression suddenly turned sorrowful, “But Brother Daniu was killed by the bad people, I can’t see him anymore…”

Her round eyes were brimming with shiny tears.

Mo Qi quickly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes and whispered, “If Miaoyan is a good girl and behaves, maybe you’ll be able to see Brother Daniu again.”

“Really?” Su Miaoyan grasped Mo Qi’s hand, eyes filled with surprise, “You’re not lying to me, Mo Sister? If I do as you say, I can really see Brother Daniu again?”

“Yes, but this time, what you have to do will be difficult, and you’ll have to do it alone,” soothed Mo Qi gently. The more time she spent with Su Miaoyan, the more she envied her pure heart and felt guilty deceiving her.

But Su Miaoyan trusted her, “Mo Sister, just tell me what to do?”

Mo Qi first told her, “The ones who are coming to see you are your family, but you must not go with them. If you do, you won’t see Brother Daniu again. So you need to play hide and seek in the garden all by yourself.”

“Should I hide by myself?” Su Miaoyan pouted.

Mo Qi nodded, “That’s right, you must hide alone, and you mustn’t let anyone find you.”

“Okay, I’ll try my best!”

Su Miaoyan stretched out her little finger and hooked it with Mo Qi’s.

After teaching her how to hide, Mo Qi was ready to head to the palace.

Before she left, she discussed with Xiao Qingyu, “If people from the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor come to look for Miaoyan for any reason, you can’t refuse them. You have to act calmly and cover up the fact. It’s best for Miaoyan to hide on her own. She may be naïve, but she’s clever, and hide and seek is what she does best.”

“Alright, but what if the people from the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor call out to her and she wants to go with them?” Xiao Qingyu felt that this plan still had flaws, that it wasn’t completely safe.

But he couldn’t think of anything better.

“She has something belonging to her heart; she won’t go.”

With that, Mo Qi left.

Xiao Qingyu didn’t get a chance to ask her what Su Miaoyan cherished.

Mo Qi wouldn’t tell him that she had lied to Su Miaoyan again—that if she hid well, she could see Zhang Daniu again.

But…

Mo Qi’s eyes were downcast, and in her heart, she repeated countless times, “Miaoyan, I’m sorry…”

Although she had deceived her, she would do her best to treat her well.

Mo Qi boarded the carriage to the palace, feeling nervous as well. Compared to Su Miaoyan having to hide from a search, she was facing greater pressure going to the palace to face Su Yingxue.

But somehow, whenever she remembered that sentence from Zhang Daniu, “Having me is enough,” her ears would burn, and she didn’t know where she found the courage to dispel the frown between her brows.

Inside Yaoguang Hall.

Xiao Yu was still kneeling and hadn’t risen, his face pale and his body slightly slumped as Mo Qi walked in.

This punishment from the emperor and the empress was a minor ordeal for a greater lesson.

No matter who, in the end, they must submit to imperial power.

Even if the Xiao family was already powerful enough.

Mo Qi’s respect for imperial authority deepened.

But she still maintained proper and generous etiquette as she knelt to greet Su Yingxue, “This commoner, Mo Qi, greets the empress, Your Majesty may you live for a thousand years.”

Su Yingxue set down her golden lotus flower entwined teacup, her gaze indifferently enveloping Mo Qi, silently commanding profound authority.
