Chapter 52 Whose good man is called the ungrateful evil one?
In just a moment, Su Chi had arrived in front of them, and the extremely sharp long sword in his hand cut the tiger in half.
The warm blood splashed towards Su Rou. She subconsciously protected Yuan Wen, and some hot blood stained her fair and tender face.
Su Chi looked at Yuan Wen with a sinister look in his eyes, "Is this tiger yours?"
Su Rou stood in front of Yuan Wen and said, "Third brother, that tiger was brought here because she saw that I was bored and wanted to kill time for me."
Su Chi frowned, "This kind of beast is inherently aggressive. Are you killing time with it? If you have some free time, go to the barracks and watch the soldiers training."
Yuan Wen raised his head and looked at the two of them. "Wait, Third Brother? Just now you seemed to call her little sister. Are you two brother and sister? Then she is..."
Yuan Wen looked at Su Rou with a bewildered expression, "Didn't you tell me your name was Dai Rou?!"
Su Rou said, "I didn't lie to you. Without the protection of the Su character, wouldn't it be bad?"
Yuan Wen exclaimed, "You are actually Su Rou! Why didn't you explain this to me before?! Are you looking down on me?"
Su Rou looked at Su Chi and said, "I should be confused because Third Brother didn't explain it to you before."
Su Chi turned around at an inopportune moment and prepared to leave.
Until now...
Su Chi never explained the relationship between her and Su Chi at all...
Yuan Wen's fist landed on Su Rou's arm. "Don't tell me anything else. You actually lied to me! I was wondering whose good person's surname is so ungrateful!"
Su Rou said firmly, "I really didn't..."
And... Su Rou did think about explaining, but wasn't that just Yuan Wen's own imagination?
And it's getting more and more outrageous...
How could she say this?
Su Rou wiped the blood off her face and said, "You spent so much effort to get this tiger into the capital, it must be quite expensive."
Yuan Wen waved his hand and said, "It's not expensive, not much money. But you, I almost got you eaten by a tiger, don't blame me."
Seeing Yuan Wen's casual words, Su Rou already had an idea in her mind. Something Yuan Wen said was not expensive must be very expensive.
Yuan Wen choked and muttered, "No, this is Su Rou. Maybe she can kill the tiger alone..."
Su Rou smiled helplessly.
When Su Wan came back, he was shocked by the bloodstains in the yard. After asking about the reason, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"That tiger is a ferocious beast. Today, Ah Rou was almost eaten by it. From now on, it's best not to have anything to do with the eldest daughter of that caravan."
Su Rou said, "Why did Father say that?"
Su Wan said, "The Yuan family's caravan isn't from our Northern Kingdom. They travel between countries and have always maintained neutrality, so their stance is very unstable. Father isn't afraid of you playing tricks on them, but he's worried you'll be schemed against. After all, you're a businessman. How could anyone approach you with pure intentions?"
Su Rou thought what her father said made sense, but she felt that Yuan Wen should not be that kind of person.
Su Chi stepped forward to help Su Rou and said, "That Yuan Wen is not a bad person. I have contacted him on my sister's behalf."
Su Wan said, "Don't misjudge her. This is the first time that Arou has made friends with someone."
Su Chi's face was expressionless, his voice was cold, "No."
Su Rou felt surprised. How could her third brother speak up for her?
The third brother has a good relationship with her, but Su Rou always feels that there seems to be a gap between her and the third brother.
Su Rou said, "Don't worry, I may misjudge people, but Third Brother won't."
On the way back to the yard, Su Rou noticed that Su Chi had been following her.
Su Rou stopped and said, "Third brother, your yard shouldn't be in this direction."
Su Chi said, "Isn't it nice of me to chat with you?"
How could Su Rou dare to say she was not welcome?
She could only nod and say, "Welcome. I'll ask the maid to make a pot of tea. Yuan Wen stayed at my place for a while this afternoon. I wonder if he's finished packing up now."
Su Chi said, "Well, I'll ask you here. I saw you and Yuan Wen wandering around the streets today. I saw you coming back with me. What's your relationship with Prince Yu?"
Su Rou was stunned. She had never expected that he would turn the topic to Gong Yu. Since her third brother asked this, he must have seen her getting off Gong Yu's carriage.
Su Rou said, "It's nothing, we just happened to know each other. I went to the palace to see the emperor today. When I came back, he asked about my mother and asked me to go to his house... to look at the flowers."
This wasn't a lie. Because she intentionally kept her distance from Gong Yu, she wasn't even close friends with him.
Su Rou said, "Why are you asking this, Third Brother? Although Prince Yu is a hostage from another country, he treats me well."
Su Chi said, "You just wanted to see the flowers in his house?"
Su Rou nodded. This was the reason why Gong Yu asked her to go to Prince Yu’s Mansion. Otherwise, why would he specifically tell her mother?
Su Chi turned around and looked at her sideways. "Didn't we run into the Crown Prince today when we were returning to the capital? I thought you had finally transferred your affection for him to someone else."
Su Rou was stunned. Xie Yuan brought back a woman from outside?
She recalled her memory and realized that Xie Yuan had not left the capital at that time.
Could it be that her rebirth caused Xie Yuan and Chang Xi to meet earlier?
When she entered the palace today, she didn't hear anything about Xie Yuan from anyone. It seemed that she would have to send someone to find out tomorrow.
When Su Rou came to her senses, Su Chi had already left.
She collapsed on the soft bed, her whole body falling into a state of relaxation.
Her own bed is still better. She hasn't had a good rest recently.
Su Rou gradually fell asleep, but in her daze, she felt as if a pair of hands were gently caressing her cheeks.
Those hands were gentle and delicate.
Su Rou opened her eyes and saw Su sitting beside the bed.
It was already daybreak outside. Su Rou yawned, "Mother, what are you doing?"
Su said, "Since you haven't woken up yet, I came to see what happened to you. I was immediately mesmerized by your sleeping face."
Su Rou rubbed her eyes. It was already so late outside and her mother came to see her in person.
Su said, "You look tired. You might as well take a good rest today."
Su Rou said, "It's nothing, but why did my mother appear in my room?"
Su wanted to say something but stopped herself, and it was the maid who followed her that spoke for her.
"Miss, the Empress has actually sent someone to invite you to the palace. It's said that several women from the capital have been invited. Madam is worried that if you go, the Empress will deliberately target you. She wants you to stay in the palace and find a suitable excuse to deal with it."
Su Rou's expression finally came to her senses.
Su Rou looked at Su Shi, "Who are the women who left today?"
Su said, "Almost all the women in the capital have received invitations..."
No wonder.
The Queen suddenly summoned her into the palace, it turned out she wanted to...
