The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince! Chapter 1458: 1453: Xiao Yu's Ruthlessness

Chapter 1458: Chapter 1453: Xiao Yu’s Ruthlessness

But Su Miaoyan said through tears, “A little girl, she said… Brother Yu will be killed, and I’ll never see Brother Yu again.”

No one could understand the fear she felt upon hearing those words at that ti.

She had already lost Ningning; she couldn’t lose Brother Yu as well.

“Right now, Xiao Yu is still alive, Miaoyan, you should rest and take care of yourself first,” Su Yingxue comforted, holding her hand.

“Sister Xue, please, let see Brother Yu, okay?” Su Miaoyan sobbed, her voice hoarse and broken.

Su Yingxue furrowed her brows, Xiao Yu was still imprisoned, and Chu Yihan had a plan to root out those secretly in contact with Xiao Yu; no one could be allowed to see him.

But now Su Miaoyan was so fragile…

“Your Highness!”

Mo Qi hurried to the door.

Su Yingxue stepped outside and saw that Mo Qi was also injured, his face pale as he said, “Your Highness, Xiao Yu… he’s been abducted.”

“What?!”

Su Yingxue was greatly shocked.

Su Miaoyan, forcing herself to get up, ran out and fainted upon hearing this.

The Marquis of Martial South’s Manor was thrown into chaos, and no one deliberately checked the servants’ chatter, so the news of Su Miaoyan fainting again quickly spread throughout Jiang Du City.

Xiao Qingyu, in the Qilin Garden, also received the news.

He paced anxiously at the gate, “Now, I cannot leave the Garden to visit my sister-in-law; with brother captured, I don’t know how the emperor will deal with him, this situation…”

What to do!

“Young master, you mustn’t panic now. The head of our family is acting without regard for the Xiao family’s safety. If you beco flustered, the Xiao family might truly be finished. If that happens, how will we face our ancestors?” Mo Yun hurriedly consoled.

Xiao Qingyu took a deep breath, “You’re right, I need to remain calm. Right now brother’s actions are sowhat biased. I need to stabilize the people at the various shops in Jiang Du.”

He returned to his room and wrote several letters, intent on having Mo Yun deliver them to the various money houses and shops in Jiang Du, to reassure them to conduct their business without being affected by the rumors in the city.

After finishing the letters, he rembered they needed the family head’s seal for credibility, so he headed to Xiao Yu’s study in the Qilin Garden.

Xiao Yu trusted him, and he knew how to enter the study.

But what he didn’t expect was to find Xiao Yu already there in the study.

He sat in his wheelchair, with Zhuiying by his side, along with an unfamiliar man and woman; the man wore a black cloak, hiding his face, while the young girl appeared lively and cute, like a delicate fairy from the mountains.

Xiao Qingyu was taken aback, “Brother, you… how did you co back? Did the emperor release you?”

Xiao Yu didn’t respond to him, but instead, his gaze fell on the pile of letters in his hands.

Xiao Qingyu explained softly, matching Xiao Yu’s gaze, “I was worried about the restlessness of the owners of the various shops and money houses in the city, so I wrote letters to calm them, instructing them to conduct their business without disruption. That’s why I ca to your study, to look for the family seal.”

He had no intention of overstepping, and in front of Xiao Yu, he could be open.

But Xiao Yu snatched the letters from his hands and tore them to shreds.

“Brother, you…” Xiao Qingyu felt that he was acting very strangely, his usually gentle countenance now held an air of disbelief, “Brother, you weren’t released by the emperor, did you… escape on your own?”

That was a grave cri!

Even if the emperor was inclined to spare him, he would not be able to withstand the gossip of the entire court and its citizens!

“I’m not leaving, waiting to die?” Xiao Yu’s eyes were cold and stern, his whole body icy and unapproachable.

“Brother! Are you out of your mind?” Xiao Qingyu could no longer understand Xiao Yu’s actions. Since the Xiao family had undergone a calamity, he seed to have beco a completely different person—cruel, bloodthirsty, eccentric, and exceptionally extre!

Xiao Qingyu pointed at the unfamiliar man and woman, “Are they the ones who helped you escape secretly? Who are they? Brother, you mustn’t be deceived by them! If you continue making mistakes, it’s over for you, and for the Xiao family too!”

He clenched his fists tightly, agitated and indignant.

Xiao Yu’s face remained cold, “Zhuiying.”

Zhuiying stepped forward, knocking Xiao Qingyu and Mo Yun unconscious and ordered others to drag them away.

Hua Qingluo and Zhao Ling’er stood aside, with Zhao Ling’er expressing her shock, “The head of the Xiao family is indeed decisive, even laying hands on his own brother!”

This was a ruthlessness and resoluteness not common among ordinary people.

“How can this child talk like that?” Hua Qingluo smacked Zhao Ling’er on the head.

Zhao Ling’er imdiately pouted, feeling unjustified.

Was she wrong? Xiao Yu was indeed ruthless. Xiao Qingyu was his brother from the sa mother, and he could let Zhuiying deal with him. What couldn’t he do?

Hua Qingluo looked at Xiao Yu with a smile, “Ling’er admires the family head, and so do I. I believe working with the family head will be very pleasant.”

Xiao Yu’s face was cold without a trace of emotion. He maneuvered his wheelchair to the desk, twisted the inkstone complicatedly, and then a sound of a wall opening was heard—a stone door revealed a passage to the basent.

Zhuiying pushed Xiao Yu into it. The layout here was complex, and without soone to lead the way, neither Hua Qingluo nor Zhao Ling’er would know how to navigate.

After a quarter of an hour, they arrived at a spacious underground loft.

The loft had two stories, with lamps hung on the walls, clearly revealing rows of wooden boxes of the sa size neatly placed on both levels.

Xiao Yu glanced at Zhuiying, who leaped downstairs and began opening rows of wooden boxes.

A yellow gleam shone brightly in the loft, sowhat dazzling to the eyes.

“So much gold.” Zhao Ling’er was sowhat excited.

As she spoke, Zhuiying had opened another row of boxes on the other side.

The silver glow was equally blinding.

The amount of gold and silver in this loft could support the Great Cheng Dynasty’s national treasury expenses for two years.

Chu Yihan had summoned Xiao Yu to Jiang Du City exactly for this purpose. To replenish the treasury; training troops and recuperating after the war all required money.

Underneath the cloak, Hua Qingluo’s deep purple eyes glead with a hint of amusent, “The family head is being so courteous; it makes feel a bit embarrassed to accept.”

“No need for idle talk. I want Chu Yihan to no longer interfere with politics, Su Yingxue to stop watching over the Marquis of Martial South’s Manor, and I want to take my wife with .”

Xiao Yu’s eyes were piercing and devoid of emotion, both eyes fierce and resolute.

Hua Qingluo swept his long sleeves, “On this point, I am in agreent with the family head. Chu Yihan is also the nesis I must conquer in this lifeti.”

He was determined to defeat Chu Yihan.

Xiao Yu gestured, intending to have people help Hua Qingluo move the wealth out, but Hua Qingluo said, “There’s no need for the family head to trouble himself. I can handle it myself.”

“You can?” Xiao Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“The family head need not worry.” Hua Qingluo treated him very politely but also kept his secrets deep. To this day, he had not revealed even a na to Xiao Yu, only letting him know to call him Mr. Rong.

After leaving Qilin Garden, Zhao Ling’er imdiately asked Hua Qingluo, “Master, why don’t you reveal your identity in front of Xiao Yu to work together effectively?”
