Su Ying waved her hand, and everyone in the room excused themselves.

Only she and Chu Yunn were left in the room.

Chu Yunn didn’t know what Su Ying wanted to do, but as a woman, she felt that Su Ying was just trying to teach her a lesson for seducing the Emperor.

“I came today to give you a way out.”

Chu Yunn looked at Su Ying with a puzzled expression. “What exactly do you want?”

Su Ying raised her eyes and stared at her indifferently. “You are someone who thinks very highly of herself. I believe that you would never do something so shameless. I’ve already found out that you were used.”

Chu Yunn was taken aback.

Su Ying continued after noticing the change in her expression, “Don’t you want to know why your father wanted you to seduce the Emperor?”

These words were like a sharp sword that stabbed viciously into Chu Yunn’s heart.

She hated Xiao Jin for being heartless and hated Su Ying for dominating the Imperial harem, but she also hated Chu Min for making her do such a stupid thing that led to her falling into eternal damnation!

“I couldn’t figure it out before, but later I understood.” Su Ying took out a letter and threw it in front of Chu Yunn.

Chu Yunn opened the letter with two trembling hands. After reading it, her entire body turned icy cold, and the hatred in her eyes could no longer be hidden.

“Why… why should I believe that this is true?” She spoke in a hoarse voice, but her trembling voice contained a hatred that could not be suppressed.

“What else do you have that is worth me taking the effort to lie to you?” Chu Yunn suddenly realized then that Su Ying could kill her as easily as crushing an ant. There was indeed nothing about Chu Yunn that required Su Ying to exert any effort.

“What does Your Imperial Highness want me to do?” Chu Yunn wasn’t a fool. Su Ying would only look for her because she must have thought that Chu Yunn was still useful.

“This father of yours is really something. There must be evidence of his dealings on his side. I want you to find all these pieces of evidence.” “If he has done something that he shouldn’t have done, won’t Duke Jingguo’s Residence and I be implicated as well?”

Su Ying stood up from her chair and slowly squatted down in front of her. “I have always made a distinction between grudges and gratitude. Whoever does something wrong will die.”

Chu Yunn gripped the letter in her hand tightly.

Su Ying was not in a hurry. She added faintly, “Of course, if you want to die for your father, I can also grant your wish.”

“I accept, Your Imperial Highness! However, after this matter is completed, I implore Your Imperial Highness to allow me to leave the capital city. I promise that I will never set foot in the capital city in this lifetime again!” Su Ying narrowed her eyes. “Alright.”

That night, Chu Yunn was sent back to Duke Jingguo’s Residence.

Chu Min had been so worried these few days that his hair had turned white. After Chu Yunn and Eldest Mrs. Chu were punished, the Emperor did not do anything else. Chu Min did not know if the Emperor knew about what he had done.

Eldest Master, Eldest Young Miss has been sent back.”

The caretaker’s voice made Chu Min snap out of his thoughts. “What? Yunn’er has returned?”

The caretaker nodded. These few days, everyone in Duke Jingguo’s Residence felt very apprehensive. They were afraid that if something happened again, they would lose their heads. Now that Chu Yunn had been sent back, did it ’ mean that the Emperor was still prepared to extend some courtesy to the reputable Duke Jingguo’s Residence?

“Let’s go take a look.”

Chu Yunn was sent back to her own courtyard by the maidservant. The caretaker immediately asked someone to summon a doctor here.

By the time Chu Min arrived, the maidservant had already helped Chu Yunn tidy herself up. The doctor had also rushed here to check on her.

“Eldest Master.”

When the doctor saw Chu Min enter the room, he quickly stood up and bowed.

“How’s Eldest Young Miss?”

The doctor replied, “Eldest Master, Eldest Young Miss’s body is fine. She is just a little weak. I will prescribe a tonic to help replenish warmth. Eldest Young Miss will get better after taking it for a few days.”

Chu Min nodded after listening to the doctor. “Mm-hmm. Someone go and make a bowl of bird’s nest porridge for Eldest Young Miss.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Chu Min then told everyone in the room to leave.

After the door was closed, he walked to Chu Yunn’s bed. He frowned when he saw that Chu Yunn had lost a lot of weight visibly and her face had turned grayish-dark.

“Who released you?”

Chu Yunn glanced at Chu Min with a blank expression. At the instant when he rushed over, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. She still thought that Chu Min had fatherly concern for her, but at this moment, the anxiety in his eyes was not for her.

“What’s wrong? You can’t even speak? Father is asking you. Who allowed you to come back, and what did he say to you? Is he still blaming you? What did you say to them?”

The series of questions didn’t seem to care about her life or death. This completely extinguished the little bit of hope in Chu Yunn’s heart.

“I heard that Mother was also given thirty strokes of the pole by the Empress that day. I wonder how Mother is now?”

A hint of impatience flashed across Chu Min’s face, but he still said patiently, “She’s fine. It’s just some superficial wounds. She’ll be fine after lying down for a few days. Your mother was really too much. To think that she dared to offend the Emperor and the Empress in public. She’s lucky that she didn’t lose her life.”

These words made Chu Yunn’s heart sink to the bottom. Chu Min did not care about the lives of her mother and her at all!

Chu Yunn clenched her two fists tightly under the blanket, but her face displayed an aggrieved look.

It was the Emperor who allowed me to come back. It’s not that he has no feelings towards me, but he was worried that the Empress would give me trouble, so he played along with the Empress to put on such a show. The Emperor told me to recuperate back home first. After he has completely subdued the Empress, it won’t be too late to bring me into the palace.” Chu Min was stunned for a moment, but he understood at once after that. This was more like it. How many men in this world could resist the temptation of a beauty? Moreover, the Empress was so fierce. The Emperor was probably already fed up with her long ago.

At the thought of this, Chu Min’s tense nerves relaxed a little. He looked concerned as he asked, “Did you say anything to the Emperor?”

Chu Min’s gaze was sharp and Chu Yunn felt a wave of resentment in her heart.

“I didn’t say anything. I only said that I did such a shameless thing because I

was in love with His Majesty. Everything was my fault.”

These words put Chu Min completely at ease. “That’s good, that’s good.” After saying that, he felt that something was not quite right with his words. He then smiled and said with concern, “You’ve suffered a lot these few days. If you want anything, Father will immediately send it to you. You don’t have to worry about your mother. The maidservants and the old women will serve her well.” Chu Yunn nodded sensibly. “Thank you, Father. I’ve made you worry these past few days. I wonder how Grandfather is doing? Is Grandfather better now?” Chu Min’s expression changed for a moment before he smiled and said, “Don’t worry. The Empress is a miracle doctor. Your grandfather’s life is no longer in danger. However, he is getting on in years. If there’s nothing important, don’t go and disturb him.”

Chu Yunn lowered her eyes and replied softly, “Yes, I understand.”

After getting an understanding of the situation, Chu Min didn’t have the patience to stay any longer. He got up and left the house after exchanging a few simple pleasantries with Chu Yunn.

The moment Chu Min turned around and left, Chu Yunn’s expression gradually clouded over.

“Since you don’t care about our lives, don’t blame me then!”
