76: Chapter 76 Guess
76 -76 Guess
“Step aside!”
Chu Baihan deliberately altered her voice as she angrily addressed Yan Lin.
Yan Lin stared into her cold eyes, and his heart trembled slightly.
Why did he find her eyes so familiar?
“Who are you, really?” His heart felt a bit impatient, and he was about to rush over and seize Chu Baihan.
But Chu Baihan had already taken the opportunity to leap down the mountain while he was distracted.
His heart sank harshly, his hand stretched out to grab her, but he grasped only air.
As Chu Baihan fell, she didn’t forget to give him a mocking glance.
Yan Lin, if it were about martial arts, I couldn’t compete with you.
But when it comes to escaping, I have my skills.
Spend your lifetime living in your hypocritical, endless remorse.

…
Su Family.
“Disaster, how many times have I told you, your constitution isn’t suited for going out?
You should stay at home.
Now that Nan Baihan has had an accident, if the Emperor decides to investigate, none of you who attended the banquet can escape!”
Su Yuan had just come back when Su Qiong lashed out at him.
Su Yuan’s face instantly darkened, he looked up, and resentfully said, “Father, you never wanted me to leave the house.
Is it because you think I would get hurt outside, or because you think this cripple embarrasses you?”
“You…”
Hearing Su Yuan’s sarcastic words, Su Qiong felt a mix of anger and humiliation.
He strode over, raised his hand, and was about to slap Su Yuan.
Su Yuan raised his head, saying sarcastically, “Father, if you want to hit, just hit.
In your eyes, I’m as good as dead anyway.”
“You…”
Su Qiong felt a pain in his chest from anger.
Ever since his son had awakened, he had been constantly defiant.
He couldn’t help but think, perhaps it would have been better not to have revived him!
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Su Qiong flicked his sleeves and sat down on a chair, then stared sharply at Su Yuan: “Tell me the truth, did the accident with the princess of Nanduan Kingdom today have anything to do with you?”
“What are you talking about, Father?
Why would I harm her?” Su Yuan looked up again, his expression unclear, but his tone sounded honest.
“Better it has nothing to do with you!
I heard that Yan Lin has already sent people to raid the Chu Residence.
Except for Chu Hesheng and his legitimate son, the rest of the Chu family have been captured and thrown into the Sky Prison,” Su Qiong said tiredly.
He now regretted choosing the Crown Prince back when Yan Lin had an incident.
Since Yan Lin’s vision recovered, he has been acting more decisively and ruthlessly.
Su Family might be his next target someday.
“What?” Su Yuan’s face drastically changed.
He had just come back from the Princess Residence, so he didn’t know what had happened to the Chu family.
“What reason did Yan Lin have to strike against the Chu family?” he asked urgently.
His reaction was too hurried, making it seem a bit strange.
Although Su Qiong was puzzled, he still spoke, “What else could it be for?
Of course, it’s concerning the assassination of the princess of Nanduan Kingdom.
It is said that the assassins had been seen entering and leaving the Chu Residence, and moreover, Yan Lin found something there…”
Today’s assassins were from the Chu Residence?
Su Yuan’s face gradually darkened.
Today, it was he and the tenth Princess who had dispatched the assassins, but somehow that group of assassins disappeared along the way, and then suddenly a new group appeared.
The assassins arrived surreptitiously, but he always felt that the Chu Family was not behind it.
“Father, do you really think the Chu Family sent someone to harm Nan Baihan?” he asked, lifting his eyes sharply.
Su Qiong snorted coldly, “Chu Hesheng, that old fox, I have been an official with him in the court for so many years, and he is most concerned about preserving his own life.
Over the years, if he wanted to harm someone, he would have someone else do it, rather than dirty his own hands.
Even if he truly dislikes the Princess of Nanduan Kingdom, he wouldn’t act so hastily and give others a handle against him.”
“So, someone is framing the Chu Family?” Su Yuan continued to ask sharply.
“Perhaps.
But with the Prince Residence intervening, I fear Chu Hesheng’s chances are slim,” Su Qiong continued with a sigh.
The Su Family and the Chu Family had been serving the Crown Prince for so many years, they were in the same boat.
If something were to happen to the Chu Family, the Su Family would also be in danger.
“Hopefully, the Crown Prince will lend a hand,” Su Qiong sighed and shook his head again.
“Father, I’m feeling unwell, I’ll go back to rest,” Su Yuan said coldly.
Su Qiong frowned as he looked at him, only then noticing the blood all over him.
He spoke sternly, “You are injured, why didn’t you say?
Someone, quickly summon a doctor for the Princely Heir.”
Although he was irritated by Su Yuan’s battered appearance, seeing as he was the Su Family’s only hope, Su Qiong still couldn’t bear to see him come to harm.
“No need, Father.
I just need some rest,” Su Yuan said coldly, letting his guard take him away.
Just as he walked out of the hall, Su Yuan’s face darkened as he spoke to the person beside him, “Wenmu, go find out exactly what the situation is with the Chu Family tonight.”
“Yes, Princely Heir.”
Watching Wenmu leave, the grimness on Su Yuan’s face only deepened.
Who exactly was behind those assassins today?
The Liu Family was just as unsettled.
Liu Shuxin had just returned to the Liu Residence, and Grand Tutor Liu, seeing her battered, felt immense pity; he couldn’t even bring himself to scold her, immediately ordering someone to fetch the best medicine to treat her wounds.
“Father, I’m fine.
You go rest.
I want to be alone for a while,” Liu Shuxin said, sounding suffocated.
Grand Tutor Liu, who always doted on her, frowned upon hearing her words, and without the desire to inquire about the day’s events, he hurried out, even gently closing the door behind him.
Once the noise outside had subsided, Liu Shuxin quickly dressed her wounds and cautiously opened the window to jump out.
At the back door, a carriage was already waiting for her.
She got into the carriage and headed to the Eastern Palace.
“Crown Prince, why didn’t you speak up for me today at the banquet when Nan Baihan provoked me?” she demanded, stomping her foot at Yan Xiao, who was sitting and sipping tea.
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiao paused his tea sipping motion.
Lifting his eyes, he looked at Liu Shuxin.
His eyes seemed to be smiling, but the smile was so cold it was chilling.
“Shuxin, do you know why, after all these years, I have always indulged you?” he asked softly, putting his tea cup down.
His hand empty, a black cat jumped down from the tree and landed directly on it.
He stroked the cat’s back, smoothing its fur, then waited unhurriedly for Liu Shuxin’s response.
“Is it because we grew up together from a young age?”
Not knowing why, the quiet around her felt somewhat suffocating, Liu Shuxin swallowed before tentatively answering.
“No.” Yan Xiao’s smile deepened, his gaze fixed on Liu Shuxin, then, he said tantalizingly, “Keep guessing.”
