Chapter 203: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms Show Off Your Wealth
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chu Xiuwen, infuriated and humiliated, attempted to stand up but instead aggravated his wound, causing him to wince in pain.
He restrained his anger. “Su Yingxue, what’s the point of arguing with me here? You’d be better off tending to your brother’s marriage. A distinguished young general, the heir of the Marquis’s Manor, yet he can’t even marry the one he loves. He is truly useless!”
“You…” Su Yingxue rolled up her sleeves, ready to give him a thrashing!
After all, this was the backyard. If she secretly gave him a beating, no one would see it. The empress couldn’t do anything to her!
But before she could strike, there was a loud crash.
An invisible palm force struck Chu Xiuwen, sending him and his wheelchair crashing into the wall. The wheelchair shattered into pieces, leaving him sprawled on the ground, face down.
Struggling to speak, Chu Xiuwen muttered, “Ninth Imperial Uncle, you…”
“The banquet is about to begin.” Chu Yihan assisted Su Yingxue and led her away.
As Su Yingxue passed by Chu Xiuwen, she suddenly felt a twinge of pity for him. She covered her mouth and chuckled. “Your Highness, you were a bit harsh on your nephew. What if he got injured?”
Chu Yihan remained expressionless. “It’s impossible for him not to get injured.”
Su Yingxue couldn’t help bursting into laughter.
The Ninth Imperial Uncle was a man of few words!
Princes like Chu Xiuwen, who didn’t get along with him, often ended up beaten!
Chu Yihan’s actions made Su Yingxue very happy, but she still needed to keep a low profile to avoid trouble for both of them. They would have to settle their affairs at a later time.
Once they came out, they went their separate ways.
Su Yingxue noticed Su Hao standing alone in the corridor, looking quite lonely. She approached him and patted his shoulder. “Brother!”
Su Hao held a sachet in his hand as if he had caressed it countless times. The ‘Su’ character on it revealed a deep yearning in his eyes.
“Brother, if you keep thinking about it, Sister Jinyan might sneeze.”
“Sister, I haven’t seen her for several days.” Su Hao’s eyes showed disappointment. He hadn’t dared to look for Yan’er during this period, but she hadn’t come to see him either.
Su Yingxue nodded. “Sister Jinyan didn’t look for you, but she did come to me. Don’t worry, brother. She’s doing well.”
“Why hasn’t she come to see me? I miss her…” Su Hao’s emotions were low.
“After today, Sister Jinyan will come to see you,” Su Yingxue said with a charming smile and bright eyes.
Su Hao had originally wanted to ask something else, but then he heard a eunuch loudly announce at the palace entrance, “Noble Consort Xiao has arrived, Consort Xiang has arrived…” contemporary romance
Everyone in the palace immediately bowed. “Greetings, Noble Consort, Consort Xiang!”
“Oh my, there’s no need for such formality, everyone, please rise! Today, we all came to celebrate the empress’s birthday together! No need to be so reserved!” Noble Consort Xiao was fond of smiling, considerate, and generous. Her words made her sound more like the hostess of Fengzao Palace.
The empress, standing at the entrance to the main hall, heard Noble Consort Xiao’s words and coldly snorted. “You finally remember that you’re here to celebrate my birthday! Arriving late, are you trying to steal all of my spotlight?”
“Empress, what are you saying? Your Fengzao Palace is so magnificent that no matter how much I renovate mine, it can’t compare! Look, I’ve expanded it by two palaces and renovated it seven or eight times, but it still can’t match the grandeur of yours!” Noble Consort Xiao’s tone carried a hint of helplessness, but it subtly flaunted her wealth. It was like a dagger thrust into the empress’s heart.
While the empress’s maiden family was well-off, they couldn’t match the wealth of Noble Consort Xiao!
Renovating the palace seven or eight times, spending money so lavishly, it was something she couldn’t even dream of!
