Chapter 481: Chapter 482: The Chu Family Suffers from a Case of Red Eye Disease
Although her identity was that of Nan Zhao Su Yan’s real mother, she wasn’t Nan Zhao Su Yan, and if it ant harming Chu Yuxiao, she wouldn’t be lenient with anyone.
She had thought the Empress wouldn’t say anything more, yet unexpectedly, the Empress had Su Yan stay for a al at Yihe Palace.
While eating, the Empress casually served him food and said,
“Little Shiqi, do you know? The Chu family once had a hereditary disease, it’s said to be quite strange.”
Su Yan abruptly stopped his eating motions and asked in surprise, “What disease?”
How had he never heard of this before?
A flicker of annoyance passed through the Empress’s eyes, as she put on a kind smile and said,
“Look at , I can’t seem to keep my mouth shut. However, there’s no harm in telling you, but don’t ntion it in front of Marquis Chu, otherwise, he’ll get angry.”
“Okay.” Su Yan nodded obediently, his eyes innocent, looking just like a child unaware of the ways of the world.
In the Empress’s heart, Su Yan really was soone who understood nothing.
After all, she believed that since Su Yan had just regained his senses, he knew nothing at all, much less about the complexities of human relationships and the malevolence of the human heart.
That’s why she felt confident asking him questions, sure that he would keep a secret.
Putting down her chopsticks, the Empress picked up a crisp white handkerchief to dab at the corners of her mouth and slowly said,
“I’ve heard before that the Chu family suffered from a ‘red-eye disease’, where during an outbreak, the eyes turn completely red, and it often leads to death… Little Shiqi, have you seen it?”
Red-eye disease?
Sure, she had seen it in modern tis, but never one where the eyes turned entirely red.
Moreover, she had never seen Chu Yuxiao look like that.
“No!” Su Yan shook his head.
Seeing that he didn’t seem to be lying, the Empress relaxed and smiled,
“It’s good you haven’t seen it. This ans that Marquis Chu either hasn’t contracted that disease, or the ti for an outbreak hasn’t co yet.
Little Shiqi, if you ever suddenly encounter Marquis Chu with red eyes, make sure to quietly, and promptly inform your mother, okay?
The disease isn’t contagious, you inform , and I’ll arrange for you to be summoned back to the palace, to take refuge for a while, until Marquis Chu’s illness subsides, then you can return.”
