Her elder sister steals her husband? She marries the God of War and is pampered beyond measure!

Chapter 37 Are you very familiar with the King of Chu?

The Empress of Jingyang Palace finally received the news and breathed a sigh of relief.

The head palace maid secretly glanced at the Empress and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, I heard that Consort Su was seriously injured and fell into a coma because she took a poisoned arrow for Prince Qin."

The Empress glanced at him, gave a faint "hmm," and her expression remained unreadable.

“Send someone to deliver the tonics, saying that they are a token of our appreciation from the Empress and the Emperor.”

No sooner had the Empress finished speaking than a voice came from outside the palace: "The Emperor has arrived."

A moment later, Emperor Moyao walked in, and the Empress, dressed neatly, went to greet him.

"Your Majesty, you're up so early today?"

Emperor Moyao pulled the Empress's hand and sat her down before saying, "I knew you must have gotten up already. I came to see you and to let you know that Prince Qin is alright, so there's no need to worry."

The Empress smiled gently: "I already know. In fact, we owe a great deal to Consort Su."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Mo Yao's face hardened again: "That little brat—"

"emperor!"

The Empress gave a reproachful look, "Your Majesty, I just ordered someone to send over the tonics, so you can rest assured!"

Emperor Mo Yao snorted, dissatisfied, "Sending only tonics isn't enough. When it's almost done, have that little brat bring people into the palace to see for himself. I want to personally thank my daughter-in-law!"

"..."

The Empress opened her mouth, then said with displeasure, "Your Majesty, why are you meddling in the affairs of this young couple? If you keep this up, your daughter-in-law will be scared away!"

Emperor Mo Yao chuckled, stood up, and said, "That's settled then! I'll leave the arrangements to you, Empress. I should go to court now!"

The Empress opened her mouth, but in the end she instructed the head palace maid, "Just as the Emperor wishes, send someone to the Prince of Qin's residence to convey the decree."

The sky gradually brightened.

Murong Jin arrived at the Prince of Qin's residence with Su Huayue. The steward welcomed them in, and Feng Yue was reporting to the Feng Hua Hall.

Murong Jing frowned and said coldly, "Just say I'm busy."

Feng Yue hesitated.

"However, His Highness the Prince of Chu also brought the Princess of Chu, saying that the Princess of Chu came to visit Consort Su."

Upon hearing this, Murong Jing changed his mind: "Then invite the Princess Consort of Chu to Huangfeng Garden and have the Prince of Chu come to Fenghua Palace."

After saying that, he left the study and went to his bedroom.

Su Mowan was leaning against the headboard with her eyes closed, feeling bored, when she heard the door open and opened her eyes to see Murong Jing's wheelchair coming in.

“The Princess Consort of Chu has come to visit you,” he said.

Upon hearing this, Su Mowan raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, and then said, "I can't move around, so it wouldn't be appropriate to let her in, would it?"

Murong Jing said expressionlessly, "It is indeed inappropriate, so I sent someone to invite her to Huangfeng Garden."

"..."

What are you going to Huangfeng Garden for? Why are you leaving Su Huayue waiting?

Murong Jing stared at her intently with his phoenix eyes, and said meaningfully, "The King of Chu has also come."

Su Mowan was stunned for a moment, then turned her gaze away.

She felt a little guilty: "Since you were assassinated, the King of Chu should come and see you."

Murong Jing's cool gaze made Su Mowan's heart pound; she had a feeling that Murong Jing knew something.

Just as she thought Murong Jing was about to turn and leave, she heard him coldly ask her, "Are you very familiar with the King of Chu?"

really.

Su Mowan forced herself to say, "We're not very close, just ordinary friends."

Murong Jing snorted coldly, his phoenix eyes narrowing slightly: "Not very familiar? Then why did you call his name last night?"

Su Mowan looked up in surprise.

Seeing that Murong Jing was waiting for her reaction, she calmed down and said decisively, "Impossible."

Murong Jing was clearly bluffing her.

She never called herself 'Murong Jin'; she always called herself 'Murong'.

"I don't care what your past relationship was with him. Now that you've married me, you must abide by the virtues of a wife!"

Murong Jing's face darkened.

He had noticed something amiss at the palace gate that day, and now Murong Jin dared to come to see her in broad daylight—it was outrageous!

Su Mowan rolled her eyes: "Your Highness, please rest assured, I can't even get out of bed now, so it would be difficult for me not to be a virtuous woman."

"..."

Murong Jing glanced at her, then turned and left.

Murong Jin looked slightly anxious. He was waiting in the side hall of Fenghua Palace when he heard the sound of a wheelchair scraping the ground. He quickly got up to greet him: "Third Brother, are you alright?"

Murong Jing wheeled himself into the house and said calmly, "It's nothing. I don't even care about such a harmless assassination attempt."

Murong Jin breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Third Brother, is Su Er alright too?"

Murong Jing gave him a cold glance.

"With me protecting you, what could possibly happen?"

Murong Jin said awkwardly, "It's good that you're alright. Huayue was worried all night."

"I have other matters to attend to. Fourth brother, please return. Also, tell Princess Consort Chu that Su Mowan has not yet gotten up. Tell her to leave first and come back another day."

Murong Jing bluntly ordered him to leave.

"This……"

Murong Jin's eyes flashed: "Huayue said she wouldn't feel at ease until she sees her sister. Third brother, you go ahead and do your work. I'll have Huayue wait a little longer."

Murong Jing narrowed his eyes and suddenly sneered: "Fourth brother, just because I don't say something doesn't mean I don't know it. Take Princess Chu and leave."

Murong Jin looked away guiltily.

He knew what Murong Jing meant, so he forced himself to explain, "Third Brother, don't overthink it. I've known Su Er for a long time, and I only consider her a friend."

Murong Jing pursed his thin lips. "That would be best."

In Huangfeng Garden.

Su Huayue was getting impatient. She turned to Qinghe, who was waiting to the side, and asked, "When exactly is Consort Su coming?"

Qinghe lowered her head and said, "Your Highness, I don't know either. Consort Su stayed at Your Highness's Fenghua Palace last night. Your Highness didn't ask me to go and pick her up."

Su Huayue's eyes darkened: "Was my sister injured last night?"

Qinghe shook her head.

"This servant does not know. Consort Su returned last night in the same carriage as the Prince and went directly to the Prince's residence."

A hint of impatience flashed in Su Huayue's eyes. Just as she was about to go and find someone, two maids came in from outside, one of whom was a maid from the Chu Prince's mansion.

"Your Highness, the Prince says we can leave now."

"What?" Su Huayue asked in surprise.

The maid repeated, "The prince is already waiting at the door, saying that the princess should come along too."

Su Huayue was stunned for a moment, then followed the maid away unhappily.

Upon arriving at the gate of the Prince of Qin's residence, Murong Jin was indeed waiting there. Su Huayue said with displeasure, "Your Highness, why are you leaving already? I haven't even seen my sister yet!"

Murong Jin said, "She is busy taking care of the Prince of Qin and cannot spare the time to see him."

Su Huayue stared in surprise: "Your Highness Prince Qin is injured?"

"Don't ask any more questions, let's go back to the manor."

-

As Su Mowan lay there, she began to feel something was wrong; her lower abdomen started to ache intermittently.

Just as she was about to call for help, she saw Murong Jing enter. She immediately snorted and questioned, "Your Highness, is there something wrong with the medicine you gave me?"

Murong Jing approached and, seeing her deathly pale face, frowned and asked, "How could there be a problem with my medicine? What's wrong?"

Su Mowan covered her lower abdomen with her uninjured hand, her face deathly pale.

"It feels like I've been poisoned again..."

Just as Murong Jing was about to reach out, Su Mowan felt a surge of heat...

As soon as Murong Jing lifted the blanket, a bloody smell wafted out from under Su Mowan's skirt.

"..."

Murong Jing's face instantly darkened, while Su Mowan's face turned red.
