Chapter 158 - 158: Su Yingxue Wins



In addition, when he saw Su Yingxue and Lin Sisi return with a full load, Chu Mingyuan stroked his beard and laughed. “Indeed, women can be just as capable!”

“Emperor, Emperor! Dr. Su and 1 brought back the most prey, and Dr. Su even took down two lions. Does that mean we’ve won the competition?” Lin Sisi’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

“Sisi!” Lin Aotian pulled her back worriedly.

Chu Xiuwen had just been injured, and Lin Sisi claiming credit like this might make Chu Mingyuan lose face.

Chu Mingyuan’s expression darkened slightly.

“Emperor, you have spoken. You won’t go back on your words, will you? Miss Lin and I won, so we should be rewarded!” Su Yingxue was even more direct in asking for a reward.

Her boldness outshone Lin Sisi’s and subtly covered for her.

Though Chu Mingyuan seemed displeased, the matter of the reward was settled. He couldn’t let others down just because his son was injured.

He waved his hand, maintaining a smile. “I hereby declare that this year’s spring hunt winners are Lin Sisi and Su Yingxue.”

“Wow! Thank you, Emperor! Dr. Su, we won! We won!” Lin Sisi enthusiastically hugged Su Yingxue and shouted.

Her enthusiasm infected many presents. Even those who had previously looked down on them had to admire them now. And plenty of others showed appreciative looks.

Chu Jinling and Noble Consort Xiao were also watching from the imperial fusion platform. Chu Jinling’s eyes lit up. “Aunt Su… Yingxue is truly amazing!” “Absolutely! A capable girl from a prestigious family! How could she get hurt by mere beasts!” Noble Consort Xiao was smiling, her words aimed at the empress.

The empress’s face turned green. Aside from her concern for Chu Xiuwen, she had to maintain her dignity as the empress.

But Noble Consort Xiao was taunting her!

Seeing the empress’s dissatisfaction, Noble Consort Xiao was pleased. She held Chu Jinling’s hand and casually said, “Ling’er, you must open your eyes and respect those outstanding talents. Don’t target them with bias. Otherwise, you’ll end up hurting yourself!”

Chu Jinling knew his mother was provoking the empress again. He simply smiled obediently and replied, “Yes, 1 understand!”

The empress couldn’t contain her frustration and began quarreling with Noble Consort Xiao as if venting, “Noble Consort Xiao, what do you mean? Who are you implying? Are you targeting my son?”

“I didn’t say that. Why is the empress in such a hurry to assume? What’s with the baseless accusations?”

“Noble Consort Xiao, it’s obvious you’re doing it intentionally!”

“Empress, don’t be so hasty to pin blame on others. It’s akin to a tiger chasing after the Third Prince without heeding consequences, hahaha!”

“Noble Consort Xiao, what did you just say!”

Chu Mingyuan heard their argument but chose to ignore it.

Consort Xiang mentioned she was a bit tired, so he escorted her to rest.

As he was leaving, his gaze brushed over Su Yingxue’s hand, carrying a profound meaning.

This glance served as a reminder to Su Yingxue.

She had to return the sword to Chu Yihan!

The Qingfeng Sword was no ordinary weapon. It was Chu Yihan’s cherished sword, a companion in battles, a prized possession.

Su Yingxue ignored these people who were flattering her and went to look for Chu Yihan with the sword.

Just as she reached the doorway, she bumped into Mo Qi.

Mo Qi was taken aback, looking as if he had seen a ghost. “Miss Su…”

“Is Your Highness here? I’ve come to return his sword.” Su Yingxue held out the Qingfeng Sword with both hands..
