After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband-Chapter 760 - 758: Ruthless

Seeing Prince NanAn unconscious, and then hearing the details of his fainting.

Su Jin was truly unsure whether she should sympathize with Prince NanAn or with Prince NanAn’s father.

Actually, without taking the pulse, Su Jin also knew why Prince NanAn fainted.

Seeing Su Jin withdraw her hand, Princess NanAn choked back her words, while Prince NanAn couldn’t help but ask, "I didn’t use much force, how did he end up vomiting blood and fainting?"

Su Jin truthfully said, "Before attending the banquet at the palace, the Prince came to the mansion seeking my diagnosis."

"At yesterday’s lantern festival, he hit the back of his head, causing a blood clot inside. I prescribed medicine for him, needing at least half a month of complete rest."

"The Prince likely triggered his pain point, causing him to vomit blood and faint."

Prince NanAn felt a sense of relief from his grievances.

Then he tensed up again, looking at Princess NanAn, he asked, "How did he hit the back of his head at the lantern festival?"

Princess NanAn glared at him with her eyes.

If she knew her son hit the back of his head and needed rest, would she have allowed him to attend the palace banquet and get beaten?!

It’s just that Prince NanAn often played with Chu Shun and the others, and found bringing a servant cumbersome.

Moreover, with his months of training at the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, although he frequently got into trouble, they had become quite assured of Prince NanAn.

At this moment, with Prince NanAn still unconscious, Chu Shun and the others were absent, leaving no one to ask about it.

Su Jin administered acupuncture to Prince NanAn and prescribed a formula.

When handing the prescription to the maid, Chu Shun and the others arrived upon hearing the news.

After they had drunk with Prince NanAn yesterday, they only saw him at the palace today.

Upon meeting him, they were inevitably glared at.

Chu Shun and the Heir of Marquis Beining thought it best to cut ties with Prince NanAn for a day.

Lest they start a fight in the palace if words were to go wrong?

If a fight ensued, and by chance blurted out last night’s incident, it would surely not be good for the girl from Nanyang Marquis Mansion.

In any case, the wedding day was just ten days away.

Would Prince NanAn still hold grudges after the wedding?

With his terrible memory, he will probably forget it in less than three days.

In any case, no matter how Prince NanAn glared, they wouldn’t respond, continuing to eat and drink as they liked, and left the palace together after the banquet.

Though they left only moments earlier, they perfectly missed witnessing Prince NanAn being beaten to the point of vomiting blood in the palace.

Slight disappointment.

But mostly curiosity and bewilderment.

After the harsh training at Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, their ability to withstand beatings improved dramatically.

Even if Prince NanAn enraged Prince NanAn, it shouldn’t have resulted in vomiting blood from a slap.

Clearly, there’s something off here.

Either Prince NanAn was seriously harmed, or he was pretending to faint.

The two hurried over to check.

In the end, Princess NanAn asked them how Prince NanAn hit the back of his head yesterday, which completely dumbfounded the two of them.

"Hit the back of his head?" Chu Shun was surprised.

"When did that happen?" the Heir of Marquis Beining looked at Chu Shun.

The two looked at each other.

Then simultaneously looked at Princess NanAn.

Full of curiosity.

Princess NanAn, "..."

"We’ll have to wait until the son wakes up to ask him," said Prince NanAn.

Prince NanAn spoke softly.

Despite knowing Prince NanAn’s vomiting blood and fainting was not entirely his doing.

But it made no sense to explain it to Princess NanAn, even if Prince NanAn hit the back of his head, at least he seemed fine, his slap only made things worse.

Prince NanAn had nothing to say.

He could no longer imagine how others would discuss him.

Many people had witnessed Prince NanAn disciplining his son.

They say before teaching a child, teach your spouse.

This slap of Prince NanAn’s showcased the Prince NanAn Mansion’s family rules to people.

It’s more than just strict...

Then ——

They began to sympathize with Prince NanAn.

Don’t be deceived by Prince NanAn’s eternal laughter and carefree demeanor, he might be abused by his own father at home.

If he could be slapped unconscious and vomiting blood in public, what about at the mansion where he could be beaten at will?

If he were beaten elsewhere, fine, but the head is the last place to hit.

Having only this one son, how could one bear to be so heartless?

Fengyang Palace.

Princess Shouning paced back and forth in the bedroom.

A palace maid ran inside, and she anxiously asked, "Did you hear any news from the Imperial Physician?"

"The Imperial Physician said Prince NanAn has a blood clot in his head," the palace maid replied, panting.

Princess Shouning’s face instantly turned pale with anger, "How could Prince NanAn’s father be so ruthless!"

"The Imperial Physician said that if the blood clot isn’t cleared, it could be very dangerous," the palace maid worriedly added.

"What kind of danger? I haven’t heard the Imperial Physician mention this before?" Princess Shouning asked.

"The Imperial Physician feared alarming Princess NanAn into fainting. Anyway, after the Imperial Physician examined him, they would still find a more skilled medical practitioner such as Princess Consort Zhenbei to further diagnose, so he simply didn’t elaborate, only provided a prescription," the palace maid explained.

"If the blood clot is not cleared, it may lead to blindness."

All color drained from Princess Shouning’s face.

The palace maids and eunuchs all felt pain for Prince NanAn.

Could he be the first Prince of Daqi to be blinded by his own father?

Prince NanAn doesn’t seem fierce, who knew he could be so ruthless.

The palace maids and eunuchs crowded around to advise Princess Shouning to give up on Prince NanAn.

Could there be any happiness in marrying into such a family?

If the own son isn’t cherished, how could the princess be valued?

Princess Shouning sat on a footstool by the bed.

She felt that things weren’t that simple.

Yesterday was the lantern festival and the Heir of Duke Chong was drugged and found with Uncle Wen Yuan’s eldest daughter.

Who was behind the drugging?

Intuition told her it was surely related to Prince NanAn.

Prince NanAn’s vomiting of blood wasn’t necessarily from being beaten; he might have been injured beforehand or even poisoned.

Hmm!

Nine times out of ten, he was poisoned!

Duke Chong’s Mansion’s penchant for gathering all sorts of strange and exotic poisons was no secret to her.

She needed to ask her cousin.

Princess Shouning raised her foot and ran outside.

The palace maids and eunuchs quickly chased after her.

They were afraid, afraid Princess Shouning might rush out of the palace and go to Prince NanAn Mansion, which would be a real laughingstock.

However, Princess Shouning was heading to Phoenix Palace, to plead with the Empress to allow her to pay respects at Duke Chong’s Mansion, at her grandmother’s memorial.

Mentioning her birth mother, the Empress’s eyes welled up.

Though the Empress didn’t agree to Princess Shouning’s request, "Are you really going to pay respects or are you using this as an excuse to see Prince NanAn?"

Princess Shouning turned her face away, feeling wronged, "What kind of person does Mother take me for?!"

"How could a dignified princess visit Prince NanAn Mansion?!"

"If Mother doesn’t let me pay respects, then I just won’t go."

With that, Princess Shouning rose to leave.

Nanny Zhou quickly intercepted her.

She knew the princess’s temperament; some things were quickly forgotten after being said, but others were persistent in a way that left no one able to handle her.

If her grandmother passed away and her granddaughter didn’t pay respects, it wouldn’t be right.

Princess is the model for all daughters in the land.

The Empress considered it and said, "Tomorrow, Mother will go with you to Duke Chong’s Mansion."

Princess Shouning turned back to look at the Empress, "Mother doesn’t distrust me."

Though still holding some resentment, her tone softened considerably.

The Empress invited her to sit down to talk, but Princess Shouning turned and left.

Nanny Zhou then remarked, "This time, it seems the princess genuinely intends to mourn."

"Hopefully, she can let go of her thoughts about Prince NanAn," the Empress sighed.
