Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 377

~ TAKE CARE OF SU YAXIAN ~ 

The Eldest Madam’s pupils constricted. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

“Cousin Yaxian was injured to save the Sixth Princess, right?” Mu Yunyao looked at Su Yaxian. Although she looked gentle and demure, she had an idea in her heart, unlike Su Yajing and Su Yaling, who had lost their temper after being completely taught by their Eldest Madam. She must have her own purpose to get involved with Su Qingwu and the Sixth Princess’s matter.

“What about it?” The Eldest Madam frowned as she looked warily at Mu Yunyao.

Mu Yunyao sneered, “There is a big difference between saving the sixth princess from serious injury and sacrificing her life to save the sixth princess.” If she sacrificed Su Yaxian, she could gain more benefits for the Su family. Mu Yunyao believed that the Eldest Madam would definitely do so without hesitation.

“You … What are you talking about? You suspect that I will intentionally caused Yaxian’s death in order to gain credit?”

“I was just casually saying it. Eldest Aunt, no need to be so excited.” Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes and didn’t look at her. “The Imperial Physician had just warned me that I must take good care of Cousin Yaxian tonight. I’ll stay here to accompany her. Eldest Aunt is also exhausted today, so you’ll go back and rest first.”

Su Yaxian would be entering the Palace of the First Prince’s Place in the future. Moreover, this person was not bad, and she could not let the Eldest Madam bring disaster down like this. Now, the Eldest Madam was becoming more and more lacking in manners, as if she possessed for the benefit of the Su family.

“There’s no need for you. Who knows if you have ill intentions?”

“Si Shu, send Eldest Aunt out.” Mu Yunyao was too lazy to continue interacting with her, so she directly gave the order.

The Eldest Madam widened her eyes and looked at Mu Yunyao in anger. “What are you trying to do? Did you really think that you would be able to go against the rules and do as you pleased just because you were chosen by Grand Princess Yi De? Why don’t you look at your own identity....”

“Eldest Aunt.” Mu Yunyao slightly raised her voice as the imposing aura around her body continued, “The disease will start from the mouth, and disaster will start from the mouth. As the Madam of the Su family’s residence, you should understand the principle of being cautious with every word and action. Don’t let other people saw jokes in the Su family. Go back and have a rest in your tent. You have to take care of cousin Yuyi when you get back to the residence.”

The Eldest Madam was so angry that her entire body was trembling, but she didn’t dare make a ruckus. After all, the various tents aren’t far from each other, so if they really were to make a ruckus, then it would really be a great loss of face. “Mu Yunyao, a flower never turned bloom in a hundred days, and it didn’t have thousands of days of opportunities to live. At present, you are proud, act openly, and have no scruples. But don’t forget, you won’t be this proud forever. When you fall, I’ll definitely let you know how to conduct yourself!”

Mu Yunyao raised the corner of her lips nonchalantly. “Then I’ll thank Eldst Aunt. Si Shu, send Eldest Aunt out.”

“No need!” With that, the Eldest Madam turned around and left with a cold snort. It seemed like the Eldest Madam had been thoroughly angered by her and had even forgotten her rationality when she saw her. She only thought of tit for tat, but she didn’t think about her current situation. Once she returned to the Su family, she would truly understand just what kind of situation she was in and really realize what it was like to lose power.

After a long while, Su Yajing and Su Yaling slowly walked inside the tent. Their clothes were thin, and they were trembling with fear, “Cousin Yunyao, the weather outside is too cold, we ...”

Mu Yunyao stood up with a smile on her face, “It’s my negligence. My two cousin’s going my tent tonight to have a rest. Cousin Yaxian is severely injured, so I have to be careful about burning up the whole night. I’ll guard here.”

“This… Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

Mu Yunyao laughed. “We’re both sisters. What’s wrong with that? I’ll get Jin Lan to send you there.”

“Alright.” Su Yajing and Su Yaling were timid. When they saw Su Yaxian covered in blood previously, they were already scared out of their wits. If they stayed in this tent tonight, they would not be able to sleep at all.

The Imperial Physician at the Sixth Princess still went in and out until midnight, then gradually calmed down.

Jin Lan brought in a cup of tea and placed it beside Mu Yunyao’s hand. “This servant found a soft couch and has already tidied it up. Miss, you should rest for a while.”

Mu Yunyao raised her teacup and took a sip. She stood up and walked to the bedside to examine Su Yaxian’s forehead and let out a sigh of relief. “The fever has already subsided, so I think she’ll be fine if I don’t keep an eye on her.”

“It’s all thanks to Miss helping out with acupuncture. If we only relied on the Imperial Physician’s prescription, I’m afraid it wouldn’t have worked so quickly.”

Si Shu walked in with a slightly cold aura. “Miss, the Sixth Princess is already fine. It’s said that her back is injured, but it’s not that serious. However, I heard that Miss Zhang’s face was scratched, and her legs were bitten off by a wild wolf, so the situation is not looking good.”

“Didn’t we already clean up this area?” Where did the wolf pack come from?”

“It seemed that they have come from the nearby mountain. The guards did not notice it. There are many killed prey in the woods at night. Since they did not pick them up in time, the smell of blood was quite heavy, leading the wolves over. No one would have thought that the Sixth Princess still hadn’t returned to her tent at such a late time.”

“Do you know why Zhang Wan and Su Yaxian also went there?”

“It was said that the Sixth Princess had taken a fancy to a white fox and insisted on capturing it alive. Unexpectedly, that white fox was quite intelligent, and as she chased it, she gradually entered the depths of the forest. When Miss Zhang heard that the Eldest Young Master was accompanying the Sixth Princess to hunt, she also wanted to follow up and take a look. Coincidentally, she happened to meet the Second Miss, so she asked to go with her together.”

Mu Yunyao shook her head, “These words are full of loopholes. They’re definitely not the truth. We’ll wait and see tomorrow.”

The sky gradually brightened. Su Yaxian opened her eyes and felt pain in her shoulder as if half of her arm had been torn off. Thinking of the scene where the wolves pounced on her to attack and bite yesterday, she frightened and cried out, “Ah!?!? Wolf!”

“Second Miss.” Jin Lan hurried forward. “Second Miss, don’t be afraid. You’ve already returned to the tent. It’s very safe here.”

Su Yaxian looked around in fear. When she saw that it was her own tent, she gradually calmed down.

When Mu Yunyao heard the commotion, she walked over, “Cousin Yaxian has woken up. Does your body still hurt so much?”

Su Yaxian was still in shock, and she nodded after a while, “Many thanks to Little Sister Yunyao. How about my injury....”

“The injury’s on the shoulder already been carefully cleaned and applied medicine. But the Imperial Physician said the wound’s a bit deep, so it might leave behind some scars. Cousin Yaxian should pay extra attention to the contraindications, and don’t eat anything that’s easy to grow hair on.”

Su Yaxian let out a sigh of relief. “It doesn’t matter if the wound will leave behind a scar or not. I’m already surprisingly lucky to be able to keep my life.”

As if thinking about last night’s situation, Su Yaxian shuddered for a moment and then continued, “I wonder how the Sixth Princess and Miss Zhang are doing?”

“I’m not too sure either, but with the Imperial Physicians taking good care of them, it shouldn’t be a problem.” Mu Yunyao carefully sized up Su Yaxian’s expression, “I wonder why Cousin Yaxian went into the depths of the forest and ran into a pack of wolves?”

Su Yaxian’s face turned pale. She bit her lips and said, “I’m not too sure either. Yesterday, I went to look for Eldest Brother and unknowingly went deep. I don’t know where these wolves came from ....”
