World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess Chapter 98 - Borrowing Two Men

Chapter 98 Borrowing Two Men

A girl who was about to get married? How did Xia Houmo know about this?

Was Xia Houmo present at the time?!

But even so, he shouldn’t have questioned her with such an angry look. Looking into Xia Houmo’s dark eyes, Su Muge always had a feeling of being caught adultery by her husband!

Xia Houmo asked with a flicker of dangerous cold light in his eyes. “You want me to help with your marriage?”

Su Muge took a step back to move away from him.

“I just feel that I can’t have an accident before the Emperor is completely detoxified!”

Xia Houmo paused and looked at her. “Someone is persecuting you?”

Su Muge nodded solemnly. “I’m here today just to borrow two men from you, Your Royal Highness.”

Xia Houmo turned back to his chair and sat down. “Well, I’ll lend you.”

Ah?

So resolute?!

Su Muge was stunned. How could this man change his face so fast?!

“Donglin! Zuoqiu!”

Donglin and Zuoqiu who were guarding outside heard him and entered the room.

“Your Royal Highness.”

“From now on, follow Miss Su until she has completed her tasks.”

Hearing his words, both of them were slightly surprised but had no courage to object.

“Yes, Your Royal Highness.”

Su Muge didn’t expect Xia Houmo to actually lend himself his personal bodyguards.

“Thank you very much, Your Royal Highness. If you have nothing else to do with me, please excuse my departure.”

Now that she had achieved her purpose, she didn’t want to stay here any longer. She was really a little ungrateful.

“How are my lambs?”

Lambs? She remembered that Xia Houmo had mentioned it before. Was he regretful to have given them to her but embarra.s.sed to get them back?

However, Su Muge didn’t believe Xia Houmo would bother about trifling things such as lambs.

“Your Royal Highness, rest a.s.sured. I’ll take good care of them.” Su Muge said with a sincere look.

Listening to their conversation, Donglin and Zuoqiu were about to have internal injuries!

Why didn’t Your Royal Highness just make it clear that he wanted to eat roasted whole lamb made by Miss Su?

“You may retreat.”

Uh …

“Please excuse my departure.”

“Please excuse my departure.”

Getting out of Jianyu Hall, Su Muge felt the air outside much fresher!

“Miss, are you okay?”

Su Muge felt a little amused to see Yueru’s nervous look, but Xia Houmo was very scary indeed just now.

“I wonder what we can do for you, Miss Su?” Donglin behind her asked.

“I want you to help me investigate a person.” Su Muge described the appearance of the old Taoist priest.

“Miss Su, rest a.s.sured, we’ll find out his details as soon as possible.”

“Thank you very much.”

After hearing Su Muge’s request, Donglin returned to Jianyu Hall to inform Xia Houmo.

“Since she asked you to investigate, you just do as she said.”

Seeing Xia Houmo’s att.i.tude, Donglin found that he had no intention to intervene in this matter.

“Your Royal Highness, I’m afraid someone wants to destroy Miss Su.”

Xia Houmo smiled carelessly. “If she can’t handle this matter well, what can she do for me?”

Su Muge knew that Xia Houmo’s men were efficient, but she didn’t expect them to fulfill the task so fast.

Just after dawn the next day, Donglin had sent her the ma.s.sage.

After reading the message, Su Muge revealed a flicker of indifference in her eyes.

“Yueru, ask Cheng Ran to come and see me.”

“Yes.”

Su Muge walked out of her room towards Zhao’s room.

“The eldest Miss, pay my respects to you.”

“Where’s Madam?”

“My Lord has called the eldest Madam early in the morning, and she hasn’t returned yet.”

What did Su Lun call her mother for?

Could it be that…

Suspiciously, she heard a noise outside the courtyard; it was Zhao coming back.

Su Muge kept her countenance and greeted her.

“Mother, you are back.”

With a faint smile, Zhao seemed to be in a good mood.

After the mother and daughter returned to the room, Zhao sent the maids out.

“Mumu, do you know why your father call me early in the morning?”

Su Muge shook her head. “Mother, don’t make me guess. Please let me know.”

Zhao took her hands with a smile. “It’s for your marriage. I’m so happy that you can find a good family.”

Sure enough!

Su Muge leaned quietly on Zhao. “Mother, what are you talking about? How do you keep raving after a talk with my father?”

“You don’t know that I’ve always worried about your marriage. Now your father has personally found a good family for you. It’s the Meng family, which you also know. And the young man is the nephew of the Master Meng of Hanlin Academy.”

In a happy mood, Zhao became quite talkative.

“Mother, how did my father tell you?” Without shyness and expectation of a girl in the boudoir after hearing her marriage, Su Muge was so calm that Zhao felt much less delighted and a little puzzled.

“Your father plans to arrange your marriage after the second Lord Meng returns to the capital.”

“Mother, you’ve agreed?”

Seeing Su Muge’s tightly closed lips, Zhao realized something wrong.

“Mumu, you don’t like this marriage?”

In this era, arranged marriage by parents was emphasized, so it didn’t matter whether the parties were willing or not.

“Mother, if I don’t agree with this marriage, will you understand me?”

Zhao looked at her solemn look and sighed softly. “Whatever decision you make, I’ll support you.”

Looking into Zhao’s affectionate eyes, Su Muge felt the depression in her heart disappeared instantly.

“I never ask you to marry someone rich or n.o.ble. I only hope that you will be happy in your life, not like me …”

Su Muge leaned quietly in Zhao’s arms, while Zhao gently fondled her back with her slightly callused hand. They felt a peace they had never had before.

Some things should come to an end!

In Shunyang prefecture in the past, the mother and daughter had no opportunity to see Su Lun except celebrating the New Year and festivals. After moving to the capital, Su Lun didn’t want to be seen as a joke because of Zhao and An and requested the whole family to gather together for dinner on the 1st day and the 15th day of the lunar month.

Some things should be settled!

On the 15th day, after dressing up, Su Muge and Zhao took little Wenmo to the front hall.

There was no one in the hall; only two maids were guarding outside. Since it was not the time for dinner yet, they certainly wouldn’t come so early.

Su Muge teased little Wenmo in her arms. After taking the medicine for a few days, the little boy had completely recovered; but after suffering a lot, he had been much thinner.

About a quarter later, An’s voice came from outside.

“Has everything been ready? Where’s My Lord’s favorite steamed pork ribs?”

“Madam, we’ve ordered it as you said.”

“OK.”

An walked into the room held by Hongyu and smiled gently at the sight of Zhao and her son and daughter sitting in the hall. “Sister, you are here.”

“Madam, you’re so dedicated to preparing this meal.”

Even if her face was covered with thick rouge, her paleness couldn’t be hidden. She was much thinner than before indeed.

Su Muge handed little Wenmo to Hongmei and smiled.

Seeing the smile on Su Muge’s face, An always felt a little scared in her heart. When An wanted to see her expression clearly, Su Muge had already lowered her eyes and took up the teacup.

“Why hasn’t the second Miss come?”

Hearing Zhao’s question, An sighed with a worried face. “The child has been very uncomfortable these days, so she won’t be here tonight.”

“She should have a good rest if not feeling well.”

“My Lord is here.”

As soon as Su Lun came in, An greeted him, and Zhao also stood up.

“My Lord.”

Su Lun glanced at them and finally fell his eyes on Su Muge.

“Well.”

“My Lord, Wen’er is still unwell, so she won’t join us. Shall we start our dinner?”

“Yes.”

They sat down in the room.

The maids walked in with dishes in their hands one after another, and the fragrance filled the room all of a sudden.

“My Lord, let me serve you.” An stood up and prepared to stand beside Su Lun.

Looking at her emaciated face, Su Lun felt very distressed. “Just let the maids do it.”

Only then did An sit down.

Su Muge filled Zhao’s bowl with soup. “Mother, have some soup.” Only when she was full could she be prepared for the coming show.

Zhao replied absent-mindedly. “Okay.”

Su Muge enjoyed her dinner quietly; the chef An had found in the capital was quite good.

After swallowing the last piece of chicken, Su Muge put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

“Ouch!”

Hardly had Su Muge lifted her handkerchief when Su Lun changed his face and covered his belly with cold sweat instantly.

“Uh…”

“My Lord, what’s wrong with you?!” An was taken aback.

“Come on! Hurry up!”

Hearing the sounds, the maids who were guarding outside the door rushed in and stepped forward to support Su Lun.

“Madam, you’d better not touch my father.” Su Muge said in time.

Hearing her words, the maids suddenly stopped their hands stiffly.

“What, what is going on? Muge, you have to save your father!”

Su Muge walked over with a sullen face and took Su Lun’s pulse. When she let go of his hands, she was wearing a heavy frown.

“Mumu, how, how is your father?”

Su Muge shook her head and stood up, “Help my father to sit on the chair.”

“Hurry up! Hold My Lord up.”

Although Su Lun had a terrible stomachache, he was extremely sober and knew exactly what everyone in the room was doing.

Su Muge walked back to the table and began to stir in the dish as if looking for something.

“Muge, what are you doing?”

After searching for a while, Su Muge stopped and shouted solemnly, “Come on, arrest all the people in the general kitchen!”

Su Muge made everyone stunned by a word.

The most important thing now should be to save Su Lun. Why did she arrest the people in the general kitchen?

“Muge, it’s important to save your father now.”

Su Muge glanced at Su Lun with an obscure look and asked to bring her a copper basin.

“Madam, hold on to this copper basin.” An didn’t know what she was going to do. Even if she didn’t want to be ordered by Su Muge, she followed her words to hold the copper basin.

Su Muge held Su Lun up who was leaning on the chair and reached out to hit at certain acupoints on his back.

Su Lun only felt a tumult in his stomach.

“Oh!” With a sound of vomiting, he spat it out.
