The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 12

On the surface, she was doing this for Su Yingxue’s sake, but she was actually panicking inside.

All the ginseng was with her. If they found out…

“Servants having sticky fingers cannot be underestimated. They should be interrogated in public so that everyone in the Marquis’s Manor can learn from it.” Su Hao lowered his voice.

He waved his hand and ordered, “Shu Yan, go and bring everyone from my younger sister’s courtyard here. Not a single person can be left out.”

Shu Yan immediately cupped his hands. “Yes, Young Master.”

Su Yingxue was furious. “D*mn it, I finally had something to give to Father, but it was actually stolen by someone!”

Her words made Su Dingheng angry and annoyed, and he even felt that he owed her.

As a father, he didn’t dote on Su Yingxue much. Instead, he took many good things from her. Now that she received top-quality ginseng, she even wanted to gift it to him.

However, when he thought about the theft of the top-quality ginseng, he gritted his teeth even more. “These people are so bold. If I find out who stole it, I’ll skin them alive!”

Su Yurou’s body trembled when she heard that. She wanted to leave quietly, but Su Yingxue shouted, “Yurou, where are you going? Don’t worry. Father will definitely help me find the ginseng.”

Su Yurou had no choice but to retreat after being noticed.

A trace of resentment flashed across her eyes, but she replied obediently, “Yes, Father is wise and mighty. We will definitely find the ginseng.”

Shu Yan quickly brought Yuan Xiang over. Yuan Xiang was thrown into the hall, shivering.

Shu Yan said, “Reporting to the Marquis and Young Master. I have found out that this servant girl is in charge of managing the storeroom in the Eldest Young Miss’s courtyard. The ginseng theft should be related to her.”

Su Dingheng’s heart was suddenly filled with rage. “B*stard! You even dared to steal the ginseng bestowed by His Highness. You must be tired of living! Tell me, where did you hide the ginseng!”

Yuan Xiang’s eyes were filled with fear as she hurriedly shook her head. “Marquis, please spare me. I didn’t steal the ginseng. I didn’t steal the ginseng!”

“Yuan Xiang, you better tell the truth. Otherwise, Father will definitely not forgive you!” Su Yingxue slapped Yuan Xiang hard.

“I didn’t!” Yuan Xiang refused to admit it.

“Then why is there such a strong ginseng smell on your body?” Su Hao had a keen sense of smell and immediately noticed it.

Su Dingheng also approached Yuan Xiang and smelled the ginseng on her body. He was furious. “Speak, where did you hide the ginseng!”

Yuan Xiang desperately sniffed the ginseng smell on her body. She was very puzzled. She had clearly changed her clothes and carefully cleaned them. There was clearly no ginseng smell anymore. How could it be…

She immediately turned around to look at Su Yingxue. She had touched her just now!

Su Yingxue had an innocent look on her face. She had only sprinkled some ginseng powder on her when she patted her.

Yuan Xiang felt hatred in her heart.

Su Dingheng cared about the ginseng. Seeing that Yuan Xiang did not speak, he immediately ordered his men to punish her.

Yuan Xiang was beaten until she cried bitterly. “Marquis, spare me! Marquis, spare me!”

“Tell me, where is the ginseng!”

Yuan Xiang bit her lip, feeling extremely wronged. Although she had taken the ginseng, she had already given it to Su Yurou. However, she couldn’t tell the truth in front of everyone. Otherwise, Su Yurou would definitely not let her off!

She looked at Su Yurou for help. Su Yurou glared at her viciously, but said in a gentle voice, “Yuan Xiang, this ginseng is so precious. If you secretly stole it and sold it, say it immediately. On account of the many years you have been in the Marquis’s Manor, I can still plead with Daddy to let him deal with you lightly. Otherwise, if Daddy is furious and beats you to death…”

Su Yurou clutched her chest, unable to continue speaking.

Yuan Xiang was trembling in fear. Su Yurou was warning her that if she dared to betray her, she would beat her to death!

She trembled as she knelt down. She could only admit, “Master, please spare me. I stole the ginseng and sold it.”

“Someone! Beat this traitor to death!” Su Dingheng was so angry that his face turned red.

“Father, wait a moment. The things that His Highness has given are extremely precious. Even if she sells them, she can’t get rid of them for the time being. We are still able to investigate it now. Why don’t we have brother go and check it out,” Su Yingxue suggested.

Su Dingheng nodded. “Investigate! We must find the ginseng!”

His heart ached just thinking about it!

Those were three stalks of top-grade ginseng!

Su Hao ordered Shu Yan, “Investigate immediately.”

Shu Yan had followed Su Hao for many years and was swift and decisive in handling matters, and he quickly found out. “Marquis, Yuan Xiang did not sell the ginseng. The ginseng should still be in the residence.”

The corners of Su Yingxue’s mouth curled up. “Father, it looks like this servant girl has made up her mind to fool you. The ginseng should still be in the Marquis’s Manor.”

Su Dingheng slammed the table in anger. “You wretched girl, how dare you deceive me. Beat her to death for me!”

Yuan Xiang was beaten until her skin and flesh split open. She kept crying and begging for mercy, “Marquis, please spare me! Marquis, please spare my life!”

“Where’s the ginseng!” Su Dingheng was so angry that he stepped forward and kicked her.

“The ginseng is…” Yuan Xiang looked at Su Yurou with a timid gaze. She really couldn’t take such a beating!

Su Yingxue reminded her, “If you don’t say, you’ll only die.”

Su Yurou nervously twisted her handkerchief and looked at Su Dingheng with a weak gaze. “Father, it’s late. Why don’t we lock Yuan Xiang up first and interrogate her again tomorrow?”

“Father, it’s inappropriate! This is an inside job. There must be an accomplice in the residence. Interrogate them as soon as possible so that we can find the ginseng as soon as possible!” Su Hao said in a deep voice.

Su Yurou’s fair face was filled with pain. “Big Brother, are you suspecting that I’m Yuan Xiang’s accomplice?”

Su Hao’s face was cold, and he didn’t look at her. “I just want to find the ginseng as soon as possible.”

Su Dingheng’s heart ached as he patted Su Yurou to comfort her, “Rou’er, you’re thinking too much. Hao’er didn’t mean it that way. This ginseng isn’t an ordinary item. We must find it as soon as possible!”

“That’s right. If His Highness knew that we had accidentally lost the things he gave us, he would definitely blame us.” Su Yingxue sighed.

At the mention of Chu Yihan, Su Dingheng’s heart tensed up. “Men, continue beating this wretched girl until she is willing to talk!”

A series of crackling sounds of whips rang out as Yuan Xiang cried out miserably. In the end, she could not take it anymore and shouted, “It’s the Second Young Miss… She asked me to steal the ginseng! The ginseng is with her!”

Everyone in the hall looked at Su Yurou in unison. Su Yurou’s heart skipped a beat, and tears immediately flowed out of the corners of her eyes. “Daddy, I’m innocent! Why would I take my sister’s ginseng!”

Su Dingheng did not believe it either. “What nonsense are you spouting? Why would Yurou let you do such a thing!”

“Yuan Xiang, think carefully before you speak. If you malign Yurou, I’ll kill you for her!” Su Yingxue’s words were filled with a strong threat.

The more ruthlessly she spoke, the more Yuan Xiang felt that she had to tell the truth to have a chance of survival.

She desperately crawled to Su Dingheng’s feet. “Marquis, it’s the Second Young Miss… It really was the Second Young Miss. The ginseng is still in her courtyard! If you don’t believe me, you can search! Second Young Miss definitely hadn’t had the time to deal with it.”

Su Yurou wished she could kill Yuan Xiang!

This b*tch!

“Father, there is no time to lose. Let’s search the courtyard and we’ll know.” Su Hao would never allow Su Yingxue’s things to be stolen.
