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

Chapter 1060: Chapter 1058: You Take One Step Away, They Kneel for Another Day

Su Qingzhi also advised Su Yingxue, “Yes, Your Highness, please go drink the medicine and have a meal.”

“I won’t! How can the emperor be so unreasonable? Even if I need ten days or half a month to recover, does that mean you all should kneel for ten days or half a month?”

Enraged, Su Yingxue immediately wanted to rush over to reason with Chu Yihan.

Sun Wu, the steward by Chu Yihan’s side, said, “Your Highness, the emperor has commanded this servant to watch over Your Highness closely. The wellbeing of everyone at the Marquis’s Manor and the Ninth Prince is contingent upon a single thought from Your Highness. If Your Highness is willing to take care of your health and look after yourself and the prince, they will naturally remain unharmed. If Your Highness refuses, the emperor will absolutely not spare them.”

“You…”

Su Yingxue had never been threatened by someone from Chu Yihan’s entourage, and was even more infuriated.

Anger caused her dizziness, and she only managed to stand firm with the help of the palace maids behind her.

Sun Wu gave her a stern look and said, “Your Highness has fainted again, therefore they will have to kneel for another day. However many times Your Highness agrees to properly take medicine and have a meal today, they will only be able to stand up tomorrow. Your Highness, please consider carefully.”

“I want to find Chu Yihan! Chu Yihan!”

Su Yingxue continued to struggle, but Qin Wan blocked her, pleading, “Your Highness, please do not further antagonize the emperor for our sake. The emperor is already furious. Should you provoke his anger further, I fear that everyone at the Marquis’s Manor will be at risk. Father is of such an old age, surely you cannot bear to see him continue kneeling, right?”

Su Yingxue lowered her head and saw the fatigue on Su Qingzhi’s face.

She clenched her teeth tightly and returned to the chamber.

The chamber was filled with exquisite dishes, yet Su Yingxue had no appetite at all!

Her family was kneeling outside, while she was supposed to enjoy these delicacies alone. How could she possibly swallow any of it?

She wished she could smash them all!

“Your Highness, please drink some soup first,” Sun Wu personally attended to Su Yingxue’s meal and even brought her medicine, “This fetus-preserving medicine was personally stewed by the emperor. Your Highness, after eating, you must drink it.”

“Her Majesty doesn’t need fetus-preserving medicine! Take it away!”

The mere mention that Chu Yihan had stewed the medicine made Su Yingxue feel disgusted!

Sun Wu placed the medicine beside her and said no more, but his gaze conveyed to Su Yingxue that if she smashed the medicine bowl, the people outside would face even harsher punishment.

Seeing her family exposed to the elements outside, Su Yingxue tearfully ate everything before her and even drank the bowl of fetus-preserving medicine.

She swore it was the most bitter and vile medicine she’d ever tasted!

After finishing her meal and drink, Su Yingxue regained some strength and stood up, ready to head outside, “I’ve finished eating and drinking; can my family stand up now?”

They not only had to go hungry but also had to kneel while doing so!

How uncomfortable that must be?

Sun Wu shook his head, “According to the emperor’s instruction, they must kneel until tomorrow before they can stand up.”

“On what grounds? I’ve already had my meal and taken the medicine! Where is the emperor? I want to see him!”

Su Yingxue’s eyes were red with fury, and she was intent on finding Chu Yihan to argue.

Sun Wu stopped her, “The emperor has ordered that since Your Highness has experienced distress over the child, you must recuperate in the chamber and cannot leave on your own accord. Otherwise, the punishment for the people of the Marquis’s Manor will be increased.”

“For every step Your Highness takes from here, they will have to kneel for an additional day. Your Highness, please reconsider.”

Sun Wu conveyed all of Chu Yihan’s commands, and Su Yingxue refrained from making a scene. However, inside her heart, she accumulated more anger and resentment.

She stormed off to lie down on the bed, and lay there for most of the day. During this time, Saint Ruan and the court physician came to check her pulse.

Seeing that she remained silent, Saint Ruan went to the imperial study to report back to Chu Yihan.
