I just want to live a good life

Chapter 460 Differential Treatment

After Su Nuan asked this soul-searching question, she kept staring at Xia Changxiao's face with curiosity, as if she was afraid that he was lying.

Xia Changxiao just smiled faintly and said, "It was a coincidence that I saved a man who had fled to Xichuan a few years ago. Because his mother was delivering a baby for a special person, his whole family was killed. Only he escaped and came to Xichuan. He changed his name and did some small business in Xichuan. Later, he got married and had children. He has lived a stable life for many years. But he never thought that the people who were chasing him had not given up on him after so many years. If I hadn't happened to meet him and saved him, he would have really become a dead soul."

"That person's mother was the midwife who delivered the previous Saint?"

"Yes."

Su Nuan thought for a moment and asked, "How many years ago did Big Brother save that man?"

"Eleven years ago, when I first went to the battlefield with Dad."

Eleven years ago, was it a coincidence or was there a connection?

"Brother, do you also think this is related to the murder of Ye Xiaobai's parents?"

"I didn't think too much about it when I told you about it just now, but now that you ask me this, I think there might be a connection between the two things. I'll check it out for you."

Su Nuan came to Xia Changxiao today to ask him for help, but the conversation hadn't gotten to that point yet. Now that the other party offered to help, she was naturally happy.

"Thank you very much, brother."

Xia Changxiao smiled dotingly and replied, "You don't have to be so polite to my brother."

After the two siblings finished talking about Ye Xiaobai, they fell into a brief silence, and neither of them showed any intention of leaving the study room first.

"His Royal Highness is a trustworthy person. Although there are many royal rules, you have your father and elder brother here. Even if the prince ascends the throne and becomes the emperor in the future, he will definitely be more tolerant of you. Don't be too willful. Be a good concubine to him. I will take care of you for the rest of your life."

After saying this, Xia Changxiao seemed to be relieved.

This is his attitude.

Su Nuan's eyes darkened. This result was not unexpected to her.

That's fine. Since I don't want to involve the Xia family, there's no need to let my eldest brother worry about it.

She forced a smile and said, "Big brother is right. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a good match. Besides, with Big brother here, even the Crown Princess wouldn't dare to do anything to me. I can live as I please in the Crown Prince's Mansion. I really shouldn't be so willful."

After she finished saying the last sentence, she was stunned for a moment. These words were clearly meant for her eldest brother, so why did she take them to heart?

"Do you really think so?"

Xia Changxiao asked suspiciously.

Su Nuan came back to her senses and said affirmatively, "Of course."

"So much the better!"

These words sounded somewhat fortunate.

All that needed to be said was said, and Su Nuan's goal had been achieved. Thinking that she hadn't seen Liao Xinyi for a few days, she should go see her, so she said goodbye to her eldest brother and went to find Liao Xinyi.

At this time, Liao Xinyi was studying medicine in the room. When she saw Su Nuan coming, she just greeted her warmly.

"Ah Nuan, I'm looking up an important prescription. Please sit down and wait for me for a while."

Su Nuan followed his instructions and sat aside, waiting quietly, which lasted for more than half an hour.

During this time, Su Nuan wanted to remind Liao Xinyi of her existence several times, but seeing that she was frowning and had a serious expression, she did not dare to disturb her.

Another half an hour passed, and finally, Liao Xinyi raised her head from the medical book. When she saw Su Nuan, her eyes froze, as if she was surprised when the person in front of her came.

After thinking for a moment, she seemed to finally remember that the other party had been waiting for her for a long time.

"Sorry, I was so busy reading that I forgot about you."

Liao Xinyi said apologetically.

Su Nuan was drowsy, but after hearing Liao Xinyi's words, she forced herself to wake up and replied, "What prescription are you looking for? Is it urgent?"

"It's not urgent. Although the poison in General Xia has been almost cleared, he has been poisoned for too long and it will have some effects on his arm. I remember seeing a prescription in a medical book that specifically treats this problem."

Hearing that it was related to her eldest brother's injury, Su Nuan instantly woke up and asked, "Is the impact serious?"

"It's not serious. I just feel my arms getting sore and numb when it's cloudy and rainy."

"Doesn't it hurt?"

Su Nuan asked.

"Probably not."

Liao Xinyi replied seriously.

Su Nuanxin said that the sequelae that didn't even cause pain should not be considered serious, but Liao Xinyi's concern about it made people feel uneasy. Was it because of the doctor's concern or was there another reason?

After thinking for a while, Su Nuan said, "I haven't seen Third Brother for several days. How is his injury?"

Liao Xinyi didn't even think about it and replied, "His wound was just a little skin break, it should have healed a long time ago!"

"So, you never cared about him?"

Liao Xinyi was speechless.

Su Nuan's brows were furrowed, it seemed that the problem was serious. She knew about the third brother's injury. Although it was not serious, Ye Yin stabbed him very deep for a realistic effect, and a lot of blood flowed. But such an injury was just a little skin break in Liao Xinyi's mouth. Compared with the possible numbness and soreness of the eldest brother, the treatment was obviously average.

They are all brothers, and they are all hurt. There is only one reason she can think of for such different treatment: Liao Xinyi has fallen in love with the eldest brother.

It is a wonderful thing for your best friend to become your sister-in-law, but the prerequisite is that you didn’t have a sister-in-law before!

Su Nuan already has a sister-in-law who is very virtuous. Moreover, her elder brother even gave up all the relatives in the royal family for her. If they let Liao Xinyi in, Su Nuan would think it was wrong, very wrong.

"Xinyi, what do you think of my sister-in-law?"

Liao Xinyi was stunned by this question and didn't understand why Su Nuan suddenly asked such a question.
