THE USELESS MIRACLE DOCTOR CONSORT IS SPOILED ROTTEN BY THE PRINCE! - Chapter 868: 866: Shen Yu Falls to His Death

Chapter 868: Chapter 866: Shen Yu Falls to His Death

Shen Yu’s eyes were bloodshot, set against her pale little face, which emanated an eerie aura.

How could Su Yingxue be afraid of her? She arched her picturesque brows, her demeanor relaxed and at ease, “If you could kill me, would you need to find me? The knife would already be at my neck, right? Coming here to make threats is something only those who are powerless would do.”

“You!”

Shen Yu’s psyche was firmly gripped by her words, she stepped back several paces to the balcony, where the night wind howled, lifting her skirts.

She glared at Su Yingxue with cold eyes, “Do you think you can succeed? Everything that belongs to me, you can’t take it away!”

“It’s everything that belongs to me, you can’t take it away!”

Su Yingxue pointed at her, correcting her.

“Is that so? The Ninth Prince has left; do you think you alone can accomplish anything significant?”

Shen Yu’s lips curled into a smug smile, her eyes filled with malice.

Su Yingxue observed her position, she gradually retreated closer to the railing.

The chamber she was staying in was on the second floor. Shen Yu’s arriving late at night must have been an attempt to frame her!

Su Yingxue dashed forward to grab Shen Yu, but numerous hidden weapons were suddenly shot towards her; she quickly pulled out her red jade soft whip to defend herself.

“Bang bang bang!”

She knocked all the hidden weapons to the ground, preventing any from injuring her.

But Shen Yu fell from the railing, screaming, “Ah! Ninth Princess Consort, please spare me!”

“Thud!”

Shen Yu’s entire body crashed to the ground, with a pool of blood forming behind her.

The palace maids who had followed her, waiting downstairs, were already screaming in panic, “Ah! Princess! Princess, please wake up!”

Su Yingxue leaned over the railing to look outside, allowing the palace maids to clearly see her face.

One of the palace maids beside Shen Yu pointed at her and shouted, “Ninth Princess Consort! It was the Ninth Princess Consort who pushed the princess down; she is trying to murder the princess! Someone come quickly, go and inform the Empress Dowager!”

Within the imperial palace, all who were originally at rest were stirred into commotion again because of Shen Yu.

Shen Yu’s injuries were grave, the court physician said her life might be in danger.

The Empress Dowager fainted upon hearing the news and was supported back to her chamber to rest.

Qin Muyan received the news and hurriedly rushed into the palace.

His mother, Qin Ge, was busily attending to both sides, while Qin Rulie stood outside the chamber with a gloomy expression, “Su Yingxue really knows no gratitude. If something happens to cousin and imperial grandmother, I will surely kill her!”

“Imperial Brother, this matter must not have been done by Yingxue; she’s not like that. There must be some misunderstanding!” Qin Muyan quickly defended.

His eagerness to protect Su Yingxue, unbothered by the condition of the Empress Dowager and Shen Yu, angered Qin Rulie greatly, “Mu Yan, what is wrong with you! Imperial grandmother and cousin are in such a dangerous state, and you don’t show any concern, yet you care so much for that outsider! How can Su Yingxue be mentioned in the same breath as our kin!”

“Imperial Brother, I’m just speaking on the basis of facts. Even if Yingxue isn’t our cousin, she’s a kind-hearted woman and would never harm anyone. Zhao Hua going to find her in the middle of the night is already odd, doesn’t that suggest Zhao Hua has an ulterior motive?”

“Nonsense!” Qin Rulie, furious, punched Qin Muyan, causing him to stagger.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, but Qin Muyan, enduring the pain, still insisted, “I trust Yingxue; she wouldn’t hurt anyone. As for imperial grandmother… it’s because Zhao Hua is sick. We must wait for Zhao Hua to awaken and properly interrogate her!”

Qin Muyan’s stance was resolute, but in Qin Rulie’s eyes, this was nothing but being bewitched by Su Yingxue.
