The conversation between Empress Su and Empress Dowager Renyi was destined to end in defeat for Empress Su.
Returning to Kunning Palace, she immediately prepared gifts to visit Fourth Young Master Su Yaoqi at the Duke Mansion.
In the early stages of treatment, the wound healed slowly, and Su Yaoqi would be awakened by pain every night.
During the day, the Duke and Duchess often accompanied him.
At night, only a few maids and servants remained to keep watch.
At the moment, just as the Chief Eunuch at Kunning Palace had returned from visiting Su Yaoqi, a maid came in and said, "Lord Duke, Sixth Miss is kneeling outside again."
In her plea for her biological mother, Su Dai had knelt until her knees were bruised these past days, yet Duke Su remained unmoved.
Anything concerning Su Yaoqi was like gouging out his heart; how could he easily relent?
"If she likes kneeling so much, let her kneel properly!"
Duke Su waved his hand and turned to enter the inner chamber.
