The next day, Bi Lou came to serve Su Wan at her usual time. But the moment she entered, she saw the military officer's cold expression.
Uh.
Bi Lou's gaze flickered but she still bowed to Su Rui. "Hello, military officer."
"Mn."
Knowing that Bi Lou was Su Wan's confidant, Su Rui glanced at her faintly. "Don't wake her up to go to court. Let her sleep a bit more."
It wasn't a big deal to the princess royal if she didn't go to court. The royal family was just that willful ~
Bi Lou: Not going to court? What exactly did you do to my Master?
Seeing Bi Lou looking at him suspiciously and vigilantly, Su Rui's expression darkened. "Why are you looking at me? Haven't you seen people chatting under the blankets? She sleeps late. Don't disturb her. Otherwise … "
I'll kill you ~
Bi Lou's expression changed when she felt Su Rui's cold murderous intent. She was Su Wan's most useful assistant and also the leader of the imperial family's secret guards. She had killed countless people over the years so she understood the murderous intent and aura of others the best.
Because of this, Bi Lou's expression changed drastically. Although it was just for a moment, the military officer's murderous intent made her hair stand on end. Just that aura alone was enough to make her hair stand on end. There was an endless danger.
Feng Wuchen, just how much did you hide?
By the time Bi Lou came back to her senses, Su Rui had already left. Mn. It was okay if the princess royal didn't go to court but as a professional spy, the military officer still had to go to court.
Not long after Su Rui left, Su Wan also woke up from the bed. She habitually raised her hand and touched her side. Although it was empty, it was still warm.
"Bi Lou."
Su Wan sat up and called softly. Bi Lou immediately appeared in front of Su Wan. "Your Highness, you're awake?"
"Mn."
Su Wan nodded. "What time is it? Why didn't you wake me up? "
Bi Lou immediately knelt on one knee. "It's this servant's negligence. Just now, the military officer forbade me from waking you up. This servant was confused. Your Highness, please punish me!"
"Forget it."
Su Wan waved her hand: "That's good. In a while, Bengong will write a memorial. You can enter the palace and hand it to His Majesty. Just say that Bengong has caught a cold and is bedridden. I need to recuperate."
"Yes."
"Oh right."
Su Wan looked at Bi Lou. "What else did Feng Wuchen say before he left?"
Uh.
Bi Lou was astonished again.
What did the Grand Commandant say before he left? Damn, she was distracted at that time and didn't notice!
Thinking of this, Bi Lou immediately blamed herself: "Your Highness, this servant … this servant didn't hear you, please Your Highness …"
Seeing that Bi Lou was about to kneel again, Su Wan immediately lifted her hand to support her. "Okay, okay. You're making me dizzy from kneeling here and there. Help me change first."
Ever since the Eldest Princess suddenly handed over a memorial yesterday, the Eldest Princess had not appeared in court today. Regarding this matter, the civil and military officials were all silently criticizing her. Not long after, news came from the Eldest Princess' palace that the Eldest Princess had caught a cold and was bedridden.
She was still full of energy yesterday. Why did she suddenly fall sick today?
This … was it because of Master Yue and Her Majesty's marriage?
Sigh.
What was love in the world? It was just a promise of life and death.
Su Wan's illness immediately made her the center of attention in the capital.
A large group of noble ladies and officials all rushed to the Eldest Princess' palace to express their condolences. No matter if it was the Eldest Princess' faction or Her Majesty's faction, since the Eldest Princess was sick, everyone should express their concern.
Even Chi Xueyuan who didn't get along with Su Wan brought a large amount of supplements to visit Su Wan.
Of course, Chi Xueyuan mainly probed and visited.
On the bed, Su Wan's face was deathly pale and she looked haggard.
Speaking of how could a person change so much in a day? Was she faking it? It really didn't seem like it.
"Your Highness, do you feel better?"
Chi Xueyuan sat by Su Wan's bed and asked softly.
"I've made Prime Minister Chi worry. I'm actually … fine."
Su Wan leaned against the headboard and forced a smile at Chi Xueyuan.
Feeling the reluctance in Su Wan's smile, Chi Xueyuan looked deeply at Su Wan. "Your Highness, did you suddenly fall sick because of Master Yue's matter?"
Although everyone guessed that Su Wan's illness was related to Yue Qing, only Chi Xueyuan would ask such a straightforward question.
Hearing Chi Xueyuan's question, Su Wan looked down and smiled bitterly. "Prime Minister Chi, do you think that I'm stupid?"
She was.
Although Chi Xueyuan thought this way, she obviously wouldn't say it out loud. "Princess Eldest, you're peerless and have a high status. What kind of man can't you have? If you like talented men who know how to play the zither, I'll send you a few tomorrow. "
Everyone sighed and felt sad for the Eldest Princess' infatuation but Su Man and Chi Xueyuan didn't think the same.
No matter if Su Wan's infatuation was real or fake, she clearly wanted to make things difficult for Her Majesty by falling sick at this time.
Right now, the Eldest Princess was sick because of a man.
Plus, Her Majesty was going to marry this man. If news of this spread to the people, what would the people think?
Most people liked to sympathize with the weak. Su Wan cleverly weakened herself so that she could stand on the moral high ground at any time.
This was the most brilliant aspect of her.
Hearing Chi Xueyuan's words, Su Wan smiled. Her smile was unusually complicated and hard to explain. "Prime Minister Chi, have you ever truly liked someone?"
Chi Xueyuan froze and then shook her head.
What did liking someone mean? Maybe it was like how she treated her cousin? She had faint admiration and concern for him?
But that was it.
"Prime Minister Chi, if you haven't loved someone deeply, you wouldn't know how painful it is to lose someone you love. There are thousands of people in the world. He might not be the best but he's the one you love the most. No one can replace someone like him. "
Chi Xueyuan furrowed her brows. "If Princess Eldest really can't bear to part with Master Yue, why did you ask Her Majesty to marry him?"
"There's a type of love called letting go. His heart is no longer with me. I can only let go and let him find the happiness he wants. "
Saying this, Su Wan looked deeply at Chi Xueyuan. "I know what Her Majesty is worried about. This time, I'm sincerely letting go and blessing them. Prime Minister Chi, please tell Her Majesty to let her get married in peace."
Hearing Su Wan's words, Chi Xueyuan smiled and nodded. "I will tell Her Majesty about Princess Eldest's words. It's getting late. Princess Eldest, rest early. I'll be leaving now."
Saying this, Chi Xueyuan stood up to leave. Seeing Chi Xueyuan's figure, Su Wan couldn't help but smile.
Chi Xueyuan wouldn't believe her words and neither would Su Man.
Women in Luanfeng Country were just like men in ancient times. When they were high up and looked down on the world, they had long forgotten about their true feelings.
Chi Xueyuan felt that feelings weren't important. But in Su Man's eyes, only outstanding men were worthy of her. She treated these men really well. Her kindness to them was love.
The so-called one and only, the so-called devoted, were just a joke in their eyes.
Until Chi Xueyuan's figure disappeared, Su Wan finally sat up and glanced at the screen in her room. "Military officer, you've been hiding for so long. You don't want to come out and get some fresh air?"
"Heh."
Su Rui slowly walked out from behind the screen. "Wife, what you said just now was really nice. I'm getting jealous. Come, come, say it again." Su Rui slowly walked out from behind the screen and said, "Wife, what you said was really nice.
"Stop messing around."
Su Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Why are you jealous? Yue Qing belongs to Su Man. I'm the one who's jealous. You know what's going on with you and Chi Xueyuan. "
"Sigh."
Su Rui sighed. "There's a type of love called letting go. Cousin sister is too aloof and cousin brother is also an injured person. Therefore, you and I, a lovestruck man and a resentful woman, are a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven!"
Su Wan was speechless.
