Chapter 1657 -1650: Su Chenyang Gets Injured for Chu Xi

Zuo Fenglin did not want to harm Chu Xi either, but the rage in his heart could only be vented through Chu Xi!

Su Chenyang’s anxiety and concern were far too obvious!

Zuo Fenglin was half a head taller than Chu Xi. He grabbed Chu Xi’s hand and curled his lips into a mocking sneer, “I told you, if you kneel and kowtow, call me Father obediently, I’ll let your princess go.”

“In your dreams!” Song’s little rascal hopped even higher.

She picked up a handful of small stones and hurled them at Zuo Fenglin fiercely.

Su Chenyang immediately stopped her. “Don’t throw! You’ll hurt the princess!”

“But…”

Song Huaining’s childish voice piped up, “Are you really planning to kneel to him? I won’t! It’s infuriating!”

Song Huaining was now full of regret for hesitating earlier!

She should’ve torn off a chunk of flesh from Zuo Fenglin’s wrist!

No!

That’s not enough!

Two chunks! Ten chunks!

Make him suffer for his arrogance!

Zuo Jiaojiao cried for ages. Once she snapped out of it, she saw her brother was prevailing, so she hurriedly wiped her face, rushed forward, and kicked Chu Xi viciously, “Hah! Wild princess scum!”

Chu Xi’s pure white dress was dirtied, causing a pang in Su Chenyang’s chest.

A dark glint flickered in Chu Xi’s eyes. As Zuo Fenglin threatened Su Chenyang once again, she deftly jabbed two silver needles hidden between her fingers deeply into Zuo Fenglin’s body.

One pierced his lower abdomen, while the other struck his thigh.

“Argh…”

Zuo Fenglin’s face froze instantly.

His body uncontrollably staggered backward, his eyes rolled white, and he collapsed onto the flagstone ground, twitching violently.

“Brother… Brother!”

Just a moment ago, Zuo Jiaojiao had been brimming with pride, but now she was filled with panic.

She pushed at the prone Zuo Fenglin and screamed hoarsely, “Brother, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you moving?”

“Brother!”

“Brother! Someone help! Mother! Grandmother!”

“Grandmother, save my brother!”

As Zuo Jiaojiao began bawling, the children gathered around to watch scattered in all directions, terrified.

Su Chenyang hurried to Chu Xi’s side, cupping her little hands in his own, his breath hitching. “Princess, are you okay?”

It was all his fault!

He failed to protect her properly!

Chu Xi’s expression remained cold as she shook her head. “He’s the one who’s in trouble.”

She carried silver needles gifted by her mother, and she’d grown up reading her mother’s medical tomes. Her understanding of the human body far surpassed that of other children.

Zuo Fenglin—he deserved to be ruined!

“What happened here? Fenglin! My darling boy, oh heavens!”

Madam Jiang rushed over in a panic, only to see her two grandchildren—one collapsed, the other crying—and her thoughts descended into chaos.

Fortunately, there was a doctor in the Peach Garden, who was summoned immediately.

The doctor pulled out the silver needles from Zuo Fenglin, trembling with fright. “Quick, quick! Take him to the clinic! Call for the imperial physician in the palace! If there’s any delay, this boy… will be beyond saving!”

Whoever struck with those needles was far too ruthless!

They aimed straight for Zuo Fenglin’s vital points!

What kind of children were playing here?

Madam Xu arrived shortly afterward. Seeing her son unconscious, she became frantic, cradling him and rushing in search of a court physician.

Madam Jiang snapped out of it and belatedly asked, “Who hurt my grandson? Which filthy little brats dared to be so vicious!”

As she spoke, she raised her sleeve and lunged at them to strike.

Su Chenyang immediately shielded the two girls, taking the blow from Madam Jiang on his back.

Though the hit didn’t hurt much, Madam Jiang grabbed a flowering branch and repeatedly whipped them with its sharp tips, scraping Su Chenyang’s back.

His blue silk robe became stained with a patch of blood.

“Chenyang!”

Wu Jinyan rushed over hurriedly.

She immediately stepped forward, grasped Madam Jiang’s wrist, and forcefully pushed her aside with a commanding presence. “Madam Jiang, what are you doing? Why are you targeting mere children!”

If Song Qianlin hadn’t run over, she wouldn’t even have known her son was being beaten by Madam Jiang!

Wu Jinyan quickly supported Su Chenyang. “Chenyang, let Mother take a look!”

Standing behind Su Chenyang, she saw his blood-soaked clothing and felt a wave of heartache. “My child…”

Su Chenyang stood upright, revealing the heads of the two girls from his embrace. His face was pale, his lips bluish. “Mother, I’m fine. Please call for a doctor to examine Ningning and the princess.”

Wu Jinyan pulled the two girls out and was more shocked than ever. “You… You’ve all been hurt!”

Song Huaining had a red mark on her forehead and blood smeared on her lips. Chu Xi’s neck bore a bruised imprint, as though she’d been through harrowing strife.

Wu Jinyan called to the maid behind her, “Quickly, summon two doctors to Qin’an Residence.”

The maid hurried away at once.

Su Han was helping Wu Jinyan take care of Su Baojun. When the three children were brought back, she approached with Su Baojun in her arms.

Seeing Song Huaining’s dusty, grimy appearance, she frowned. “Ning’er, have you been causing trouble again?”

Song Huaining had always been spirited and mischievous—rowdier than boys—which caused her endless worry, and now even her face was injured!

Song Huaining hurriedly ran over to cling to Su Han’s hand. “Mother, I’m fine! All this was because Zuo Fenglin bullied us too much!”

Her lively personality made her indifferent to the wound on her forehead, which she treated as trivial.

She pointed at Su Chenyang and Chu Xi. “Brother Chenyang protected us, but got hit by that old witch so many times, and the princess…”

Chu Xi, who had been choked by Zuo Fenglin, hadn’t shed a single tear. Yet, upon seeing the bruise on her neck, Su Han couldn’t help but feel a pang of pain.

Comparatively, Song Huaining considered her injuries no more than ordinary fare!

“The young master is gravely hurt, madam. Let me treat his injuries!”

The doctor, noticing Su Chenyang’s soaked and bloodstained back, grew anxious.

Wu Jinyan entrusted Su Han with watching over Su Baojun and took Su Chenyang to an adjacent room for treatment.

As soon as Su Chenyang’s clothes were removed, Wu Jinyan drew a sharp breath, her expression icy cold.

The doctor applied medicine to Su Chenyang’s wounds. He remained silent, enduring the pain until the bandages were complete, and his forehead was covered in a sheen of sweat.

After sending the doctor out, Wu Jinyan returned to Su Chenyang’s side and wiped his sweat. “Chenyang, I’ll prepare the carriage immediately and take you home to rest.”

“Mother, I’m fine, you don’t… Ah!”

Su Chenyang winced painfully, suppressing his voice. “Mother, don’t frighten the princess. She was held hostage by Zuo Fenglin and fought with him.”

Wu Jinyan’s brows furrowed deeply as she listened to Su Chenyang recount the entire incident.

Wu Jinyan gently brushed his forehead. “Chenyang, you did well. Protecting the princess and your sister is your duty. But those members of the Zuo family—daring to bully you—is intolerable. I will tell your father to stand up for you!”

Su Chenyang was a kind and steady child, yet Zuo Fenglin had the audacity to threaten the princess, forcing him to kowtow and call him Father—it was utterly unreasonable.

Wu Jinyan brought Su Han and all the children back to the Marquis’s Manor, and that very night sent a messenger to the palace.
