Chapter 179 You've Long Been in Love with Miss Zheng

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

The second branch of the Su family stopped making a fuss about Su Wanshi's matter, as if they had accepted the fact that Su Wanshi would have to serve three months in prison.

Su Liluo spent a few quiet days in the Crown Prince's residence, busy checking on the operations of her subordinates' shops and continuing to study medicine in her spatial dimension.

Although she is exceptionally intelligent and, with the help of the space, can now handle most difficult and complicated diseases, she always feels that there is always something beyond her reach and that she can go even further.

That day, Su Liluo was reading in her room when a maid came in to report that Song Donghao had brought many gifts to pay his respects.

So Su Liluo put down her book and went to the hall.

"Greetings, Crown Princess!"

When Song Donghao saw Su Liluo come out, he smiled and bowed.

"Young Master Song."

Su Liluo responded with a smile, then looked behind him.

Song Donghao brought at least seven or eight boxes of things with him, and even the boxes were made of sandalwood and inlaid with gold.

Su Liluo was somewhat taken aback: "Young Master Song, why did you bring so much stuff...?"

Is there anything else you need her help with?

"Your Highness, I am here to thank you for bringing witnesses to the palace last time, which helped me successfully obtain the Emperor's decree for marriage. If you hadn't arrived in time, the Emperor would have been suspicious of me and would certainly not have agreed to the marriage."

Song Donghao quickly offered an explanation.

"?"

Does the Emperor suspect him?

Su Liluo was puzzled for a moment, and then Song Donghao told her about how Emperor Wenjian had questioned why he was the one who saved Zheng Qinxue that day.

"It's normal for Father to have some doubts, but fortunately the outcome is good."

Su Liluo nodded after listening.

After all, most emperors would be suspicious, and Zheng Qinxue was originally the King of Chu's chosen queen. There are indeed not many coincidences in this world.

If this is a conspiracy, then the things behind it are terrifying to think about. Given the suspicious nature of the emperor, it's hard not to have all sorts of wild thoughts.

However, why did Song Donghao suddenly appear that day?

At the Su family banquet, the male guests were all drinking and socializing in the front courtyard, while only the women were strolling around the garden led by Su Wanshi. Song Donghao's appearance was indeed puzzling.

Su Liluo couldn't help but speculate. Looking at Song Donghao, whose smile was sincere and frank, she couldn't help but ask directly.

"I wonder why Young Master Song was in the back garden that day?"

"this......"

Song Donghao's smile froze, and a blush gradually rose to his cheeks. He awkwardly scratched his head and began to stutter.

"I...I was just...bored that day, just wandering around aimlessly, and that's how I bumped into you, hehe..."

"Yeah?"

Su Liluo raised an eyebrow, already having some guesses in her mind.

Seeing Song Donghao's blushing and nervous expression, she teased, "Young Master Song, have you been in love with Miss Zheng for a long time?"

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, Song Donghao immediately looked up nervously, his face flushed with embarrassment, and he froze there.

Seeing his reaction, Su Liluo understood everything.

Isn't this the embarrassment of having your thoughts exposed?

However, seeing this situation, Su Liluo was still happy.

At least Song Donghao genuinely likes Miss Zheng and is a good person, so Miss Zheng has married a good man and should have a good life in the future.

It's much better to marry someone who loves you than someone you love.

"By the way, what about your older brother? How is his recovery going?"

To prevent Song Donghao from becoming shy and embarrassed, Su Liluo took the initiative to change the subject.

Upon hearing his elder brother mentioned, Song Donghao's expression turned somewhat dejected, and he even looked at Su Liluo with a hint of guilt.

"A couple of days ago, my older brother, who was able to stand up before, suddenly had pain in both legs and couldn't stand up anymore. He also fell seriously ill and became lethargic."

Later, my second brother found another doctor, who claimed to be a legendary doctor from Sichuan. After examining me, the doctor said that the medicine I had prescribed before was incorrect, which was why this situation had occurred.

The doctor prescribed some medicine, and my eldest brother's condition improved after taking it. Now, my second brother and the others are making my eldest brother continue taking the medicine prescribed by that miracle doctor.

"Impossible, there's nothing wrong with my medicine."

Su Liluo gave a serious denial.

If Song Lingshi takes the medicine according to her prescription, he should recover within a month.

She had already suspected something when she heard that Song Lingshi hadn't fully recovered, and now that she heard he couldn't stand up again, she was almost certain that someone was up to something.

“Your Highness, I believe in you too, but I don’t know what happened in between. My elder brother was almost fully recovered during that time.”

Song Donghao said doubtfully. He actually believed in Su Liluo, but his second brother and his family were adamant, and he couldn't argue with them.

"Young Master Song, may I go with you to see your elder brother now?"

Su Liluo said.

She felt she had to go and see for herself, and figure out what was going on.

"Yes, of course."

Song Donghao happily agreed.

He originally intended to visit Su Liluo today, but he was too embarrassed to bring it up.

After all, Su Liluo was of noble status, and his second brother's actions were a slap in the face to the Crown Princess, making him feel ashamed.

However, for some reason, he did not quite trust the renowned doctor from Sichuan in his family, so he still hoped that the Crown Princess would go and take a look.

She could heal the Crown Prince's leg, so the Crown Princess must have real skills.

That's why he brought so many gifts when he came to express his gratitude today.

After a while, Su Liluo followed Song Donghao to the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

Just then, Grand Tutor Song and his entourage were all in the mansion, and the renowned physician from Sichuan was treating Song Lingshi in his room.

"Father, the Crown Princess has arrived!"

As soon as Song Donghao returned, he immediately shouted inside.

When Grand Tutor Song and his entourage heard that the Crown Princess had arrived, they all came out to greet her.

"Father, the Crown Princess is here today to examine my elder brother's leg. Where is he? Where is he?"

Song Donghao looked around.

Grand Tutor Song was initially taken aback, then exchanged a knowing glance with the second young master of the Song family.

The Second Young Master Song then stepped forward and said, “Donghao, the divine physician is treating my elder brother in the room. The Crown Princess is of noble status, how can we trouble her with such a matter? It is really quite inconsiderate of you to ask the Crown Princess to come and treat the illness.”

"Second brother, I---"

"It was my initiative to come. I treated Young Master Song before, so I will take full responsibility for this patient. I heard that he had some problems, so naturally I had to come and see him."

Before Song Donghao could finish speaking, Su Liluo interrupted him.

He could tell that Song Donghao couldn't win an argument with the Second Young Master Song.

The second young master of the Song family gave an awkward laugh: "Your Highness, the Crown Princess, is of noble status. My elder brother is merely a subject. We appreciate your kindness, but we will not trouble you further."
