Chapter 53 Could it be General Su's new favorite?
Reading Settings
Su Liluo was not surprised by Su Lianwu's attitude, but Xiao Ye couldn't help but feel sorry for Su Liluo.
He coldly interrupted Su Lianwu, "Watch your attitude! She is now my Crown Princess! It was your second branch of the Su family that adopted her into the first branch and married her to me. You are the shameless ones!"
"What? This... how is this possible?"
Su Lianwu was stunned, somewhat incredulous.
He had lived in the north for many years and was unaware of what had happened at home.
With their parents doting on their younger sister Wanshi so much, and their mother always teaching them to cherish Su Wanshi, how could they possibly let Su Liluo steal her marriage?
"General Su, do you think that even if you weren't in the capital, with the Su family's doting on Wanshi, I could have taken away Su Wanshi's marriage if it weren't for their scheme?"
Su Liluo said with a smile.
Su Lianwu slowly realized that, yes, everyone in the Su family, including himself, his parents, his grandmother, and his younger brothers, doted on Su Wanshi.
Su Liluo was always ignored at home. If her family hadn't allowed it, how could she have had the ability to steal Wanshi's marriage?
Although Wan Shi did seem less enthusiastic about the marriage after the Crown Prince's incident...
No, something happened to the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince is currently...
Su Lianwu suddenly looked at Xiao Ye. Wasn't it said that the Crown Prince's leg was crippled?
Now, seeing Xiao Ye standing tall and elegant in front of me, what's going on?
"Your Highness, wasn't your leg... before?"
Su Lianwu voiced his doubts.
Xiao Ye replied calmly, "Thanks to the Crown Princess, she found a renowned doctor for me and cured me."
What!
It was Su Liluo who found a renowned doctor who cured the Crown Prince!
Su Lianwu looked at Su Liluo in surprise.
When did his sister become so capable?
If a renowned doctor had been found sooner, his sister Wanshi would certainly not have been unwilling to marry the Crown Prince.
Was Su Liluo doing this on purpose, deliberately waiting for her parents to make her marry in her place, and then going to find a famous doctor to cure the Crown Prince's legs?
That's incredibly cunning!
In that brief moment, Su Lianwu blamed everything on Su Liluo.
Therefore, his gaze towards Su Liluo became even more displeased, with a hint of resentment.
Su Liluo naturally saw through this, but she didn't pay attention to his scheming. Instead, she glanced at Xiao Ye.
He was signaled to state his purpose directly.
Xiao Ye understood and, without further delay, directly told Su Lianwu that he wanted to temporarily take over the command of the border town.
"Your Highness, do you have an imperial edict?"
Su Lianwu wasn't stupid; after listening, he immediately asked Xiao Ye.
Even if the other party is the crown prince, without the emperor's decree, the local garrison still has the final say.
Xiao Ye replied frankly, "No."
Su Lianwu felt emboldened and sneered inwardly, but remained outwardly respectful: "Then please forgive me for not being able to obey. As a general guarding the border town, my main duty is to obey the Emperor's decree. If it were not for the Emperor's decree, I would not hand over my authority to anyone."
"But if you don't hand it over to me, this town will soon be attacked and occupied by the Northern Desert people. General Su, are you really sure you want to do this?"
"Your Highness, please do not speak nonsense. The town is peaceful now, and there has been no unusual activity in the Northern Desert."
Su Lianwu clearly did not believe what Xiao Ye said.
Xiao Ye didn't expect him to believe him immediately, so when he saw that he refused, he said, "Then let me stay here and we'll see how it goes?"
"If Your Highness wishes to stay, that is certainly possible."
This time, Su Lianwu did not refuse.
Apart from not being able to temporarily hand over the army to Xiao Ye, the other requirements were naturally to respect the Crown Prince.
So, Su Lianwu had someone bring Su Liluo to stay at his residence.
The environment here is naturally not comparable to that of the imperial city. Su Lianwu's residence is not large, consisting of only two or three courtyards.
Su Liluo and the others were settled in the courtyard next to Su Lianwu's. The two courtyards were connected by a diamond-shaped gate.
There weren't many servants or maids in the courtyard. Su Lianwu only arranged two maids and two servants to take care of their daily lives.
Although there were few people, it was enough for them.
After tidying up her things, Su Liluo came out of the house, intending to stroll around the courtyard and the surrounding area to familiarize herself with the environment.
She didn't bring Ranmei with her, so this time, the maid Cailian, whom Su Lianwu had arranged to serve her, followed behind her.
Su Liluo was leisurely strolling around the mansion when she walked out of the diamond-shaped gate and headed to the third courtyard.
Suddenly, Cailian called out to her.
"Your Highness, that's the General's study. He doesn't allow anyone to go in there."
"Oh, okay? Then let's go to the other side!"
Su Liluo sighed, but didn't make things too difficult for her.
But shortly after she turned around, she caught a glimpse of a beautiful figure on her right, walking towards Su Lianwu's study.
"Hey, who's that? Isn't the study off-limits to people?"
Su Liluo turned to the side and pointed at the beautiful figure from behind.
A woman with a graceful figure walked alone toward the study, without any maids or servants.
Cailian exclaimed in surprise, "Miss Ayu? Why did she go there?"
Ayu?
Su Liluo squinted; she wasn't very familiar with this name.
Cailian said in time, "Miss Ayu is a woman the general brought back and is very much favored by him, but she can't go to the general's study, can she? No, I have to have someone stop her! Crown Princess, wait for me."
