Marrying a concubine to seduce him and lure him into the game

Chapter 178 Unfilial Daughter

Chen used the same reason to convince Mr. Su and made him convinced.

However, Su Rao is not Master Su. She will keep this account in mind and will settle it sooner or later.

She saw clearly that her nominal father had no principles at all when it came to Chen and Su Wan. He would not care even if the Su family declined because of this.

She couldn't help but wonder secretly, if his personal interests were affected, would he still be so partial to this mother and daughter?

Su Rao was thinking about how to vent her unhappiness, but unexpectedly, God helped her and the turning point came so quickly.

Two hours later, Master Su returned home covered in dust and dirt. As soon as he entered the door, he fell to his knees. He looked frightened and it was obvious that he had encountered something unpleasant in the palace.

Su Rao secretly guessed that the emperor summoned him for something bad.

She naturally would not miss such excitement, so she walked towards the front yard and happened to run into Mr. Su who was about to hide in the backyard.

Master Su looked extremely embarrassed, as if he had been extremely frightened. His steps were unsteady and he could only walk with the help of his servants.

Su Rao pretended to be concerned and asked, "Dad, are you okay?"

Master Su waved his hand, went straight back to his yard, sat down on a chair, took a long breath, took the tea handed to him by the servant, and it seemed that he had just found his voice in his throat.

"Go, call Su Wan to me!" There was an unprecedented chill in Master Su's voice.

Soon, Chen came hurriedly with Su Wan, who looked confused.

Chen's face was filled with anxiety, and she kept asking, "Oh, Master, what happened to you?"

"Dad..." Su Wan was about to speak when she was unexpectedly slapped in the face by Master Su. She froze in place for a moment, her mind going blank.

Her father had always doted on her and had never punished her in the slightest, so this slap caught her off guard.

Chen was also confused: "Master, why are you hitting Wan'er?"

This girl almost pushed me into an abyss of no return, and almost ruined the glory and future that the Su family had accumulated over the years! Master Su's anger burned fiercely, and his body shook violently again.

Seeing her father's agitation, Su Rao quickly stepped forward and supported Master Su gently but firmly. Her voice was filled with concern: "Dad, don't be angry. Your health is the most important thing. We will take care of everything."

At this moment, Master Su's gaze fell on Su Rao, and his eyes, which were originally full of anger, gradually softened.

Although this daughter was not his favorite child, her calmness and understanding always gave him a sense of peace at critical moments, preventing him from becoming more confused.

"Master, what is going on?"

Chen's voice was filled with uneasiness and anxiety. Her heart was beating like countless deer, "Could it be that the gossips outside are saying that our Wan'er is wrong?"

"Is it just a simple talk?" Mr. Su's tone was filled with worry that was hard to conceal. "Do you know who she accidentally offended?"

"Who did I offend?" Chen was even more confused. What kind of person could make Master Su so fearful?

"Princess Bixia!" Master Su almost uttered the name with gritted teeth.

"Princess Bixia? Wan'er has nothing to do with her, how could she have offended Princess Bixia?" Chen's face was full of fear, but she still didn't understand.

"It's because she's been getting along really well with the people in Prince Qi's mansion all day long, and she's been spreading the news that Prince Qi is about to ascend the throne. Although Princess Bixia has a good impression of Prince Qi, she is still alive. Isn't it a disguised curse for Princess Bixia to die early by spreading the news like this? Princess Bixia came here in person today to specifically rebuke me and ask me to strictly discipline my children." Master Su's explanation revealed helplessness and worry.

This time, Su Wan really made a big mess that was difficult to clean up.

Originally, he could have comfortably enjoyed the honor of a duke, but now, because he had attracted the attention of Princess Bixia, he was afraid that this powerful woman would be displeased and take away everything he had worked so hard for.

"But I'm not the only one saying this. Besides, the Prince of Qi will become the emperor sooner or later." Su Wan looked innocent, not realizing that there was anything wrong with her behavior.

In her opinion, this was just using the memories of the previous life to plan ahead.

She despised her father's cowardice and short-sightedness.

There were many people in the court who supported the King of Qi, but my father was like a timid mouse. Although he wanted to curry favor with the powerful, he did not have the courage to put it into practice.

Even if they muster up the courage, they lack sufficient wisdom and cannot become a true core figure. At best, they can only wander on the edge and play an insignificant role.

Princess Bixia deliberately used her father as a warning example, just to scare the monkeys and frighten everyone.

This is enough to show that Princess Bixia’s dissatisfaction with Prince Qi’s faction has reached a boiling point.

However, facing Princess Bixia's dissatisfaction, how could the Prince of Qi and his faction just sit there and wait for death?

Su Rao always felt that beneath the seemingly calm surface, there were actually undercurrents, and the struggle between various forces had never stopped.

What is the situation on Prince Yi's side?

When will he be able to return and take control of the situation again?

The only person who knew the exact news about Prince Yi was the imperial tutor who always accompanied the emperor.

It seems that I must find a suitable time to enter the palace and investigate so as to make plans for the future of the Su family.

On the other hand, Mr. Su’s anger had reached a point where it could no longer be contained.

"You are still being stubborn, you unfilial daughter!" Mr. Su's roar made the air in the house seem to tremble. He wanted to teach Su Wan a lesson again, but was held tightly by Chen.

"Dad, when the day comes when the King of Qi ascends the throne, you will understand how wise my choice is." Su Wan spoke confidently.

"You! You!" Master Su was so angry that his face turned blue and he was speechless for a moment.

Chen quickly tried to persuade him: "Master, calm down first. Don't get yourself hurt by anger. We will take care of everything."

"You've spoiled me like this! What a good daughter you are!"

Master Su sighed heavily, as if he had made up his mind: "Don't worry about that girl's life or death anymore, and I won't care about her anymore!"

After thinking for a while, he added, "Ms. Chen, you should stop caring about family affairs and find a reliable person to take over."

Hearing this, Su Wan and Chen were immediately panicked. They knew that this was not just a simple punishment, but a serious challenge to their status.

"Father, Shen Lang is making a lot of connections outside and he needs financial support right now. How can you just sit there and do nothing?" Su Wan argued anxiously.

"Husband, don't be angry. I will handle the affairs of the family. I... I will not help Wan'er privately anymore." Chen also quickly expressed her position, trying to save the situation.

The mother and daughter sang the same tune and tried their best to soften Mr. Su's attitude.
