Chapter 157 The Tyrant Returns

"That's for sure. Everyone knows that Miss Sangsang has caught the Crown Prince's eye, which is why she's so arrogant..."

"Say it again!"

The servant's heart skipped a beat at the sight of the man's ferocious, bloodshot eyes, and he dared not utter another word.

Murong Jing ignored him and stumbled toward the carriage, repeatedly saying, "No, it's not like that, Sangsang wouldn't do that..."

I thought that seeing Sangsang here would make me feel better, but seeing her actually made me feel even worse.

Murong Jing reached out to steady the carriage frame, but before he could even touch it, he heard a "plop" sound, followed by the shocked and terrified voice of the servant behind him: "Young Master!"
-
Qin Su's heart suddenly ached.

Before she could react, Chunfeng, who was standing nearby, became anxious: "Miss, what's wrong? Why... are you crying?"

Qin Su was taken aback, raised her hand to touch her face, and unsurprisingly found her hand wet.

Tears fell without her permission.

System: [Oh dear, the male lead coughed up blood and fainted. It seems the host's words just now were quite damaging.]
-
A thin figure slowly emerged from the corner of the alley, its dark eyes silently watching the hurriedly departing car.

Su Yu weighed the money bag in her hand, then turned her gaze to the tightly closed door not far away.

The Prime Minister's residence, Qin Sangsang, the heir of the Duke of Jin, His Highness the Crown Prince... He really struck gold!

He took one last deep look at the courtyard where Qin Su was before turning and leaving.
-
"Madam, something terrible has happened! The young master has vomited blood and fainted!"

The Duchess of Jin was discussing the arrangements for this season's new clothes with the steward when she was interrupted by a panicked voice from outside the door.

She suddenly stood up: "What?"

"Young Master, Young Master went out for a while, and when he came back he vomited blood and fell into a coma. Not only that, he also kept, kept..."

The gatekeeper rambled on and on, unable to get his words out clearly for a long time, which made the Duchess impatient, urging, "What have you been saying?"

"You keep calling Miss Sangsang's name..." He spoke softly, knowing that the lady would be angry.

Sure enough, the Duchess of Jin's expression changed drastically, as if she doubted whether she had heard correctly: "Say it again, what's his name?"
-
"Sangsang, don't go! Don't leave me, I know I was wrong. I'll never do this to you again..."

Seeing her unconscious son repeatedly calling out the woman's name, the Duchess's face turned extremely ugly: "Qin Sangsang!"

Look what they've done to her perfectly good son!
Although the servant had just scolded Qin Su, he couldn't help but lower his head upon hearing the lady's words.

Actually, you can't entirely blame them. Every time... every single time, it's the young master who goes there on his own initiative.

"Take good care of the young master, and notify me immediately as soon as he wakes up."

You little slut, you already have a crown prince, yet you still dare to get entangled with her son. Aren't you afraid of retribution?
The Duchess got up and walked out. "Just wait," she said, "I'll go and find that scourge and make her kneel at her son's bedside to atone for her sins."
-
When Qin Su was stopped, she was talking to the system: "Abusive novels, abusive novels, what's wrong with abusing the male lead? Or does abusing a man physically and emotionally not count as abuse?"

The system thought about what she said and, considering the male protagonist of the original novel who hadn't had a good time lately, suddenly realized: [The host's words make sense!]

"Miss Qin, our madam wishes to see you. Please come with us." Qin Su paused, her smile vanishing as she looked at the unfamiliar guards before her. "What madam? I don't know her! Get out of the way and don't block our path, or I'll have to call for help."

System: [Host, this was sent by the Duchess of Jin!]

At the same time as the system's voice came the guard's words: "We are from the Duke of Jin's mansion. My young master fell into a coma after seeing Miss Qin yesterday. Madam would like to invite you over. Please come with us."

To be honest, those words sound quite polite, especially if several people hadn't surrounded her and blocked her way...

"I'm not going! I already made things clear with Prince Murong yesterday. From now on, we'll go our separate ways and never meet again. Get out of my way! Do you think you can abduct a woman in broad daylight?"

Qin Su frowned, looking like a stubborn and unyielding little white flower.

The guards exchanged glances: "In that case, we have no choice but to offend you..."

Qin Su's expression changed slightly. Just as she was about to make a token struggle, she saw a dark figure rush over and knock the two guards in front of her aside.

"Miss Sangsang, run!"

Qin Su was stunned; it was actually the little beggar Su Yu…
-
"Young Master, you're awake! That's wonderful, you're finally awake! I'll go right away..."

The servant was so excited that he was about to call the doctor, but was grabbed by the hem of his clothes: "Who did you just say was going to have an accident?"

Murong Jing spoke with difficulty, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable obsession.

The servant was stunned: "This...this is me..."

His guilty conscience was too obvious, and Murong Jing's voice deepened as he shouted, "Speak!"

"Oh dear, it's Miss Sangsang! Madam, Madam sent people to arrest her, saying she has to kneel down and apologize to you, young master... Young master, what are you doing? The doctor said you need to rest and can't get out of bed!"
-
What is Your Highness's opinion?

Chu Jiang suddenly opened his eyes and found himself standing in the imperial court without even realizing it.

The silence receded, replaced by a torrent of arguments and clamor. All he could see were the expectant gazes of the ministers, and even the one on the dragon throne cast a longing look his way.

He glanced at the kneeling general beside him and coldly uttered two words: "Kill him."

The court fell silent for a moment, then cheers erupted from the military side, while the other side was shocked.

However, he did not give anyone a chance to question him, and directly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to the heavens above, saying, "Your subject is unwell and must take his leave now."

Without waiting for anyone else to react, he turned and walked out.

The emperor frowned as he watched. Such arrogant and rude behavior was something his polite Crown Prince would never do. Could it be that the other one had returned?
Even though he was being so rude, he still had to help save face.

The ministers below exchanged bewildered glances: "What's wrong with Your Highness?"

The emperor coughed lightly: "Alright, continue..."
