Chapter 1092

Moreover, since Su Su had died for Yi Xiaochuan, in terms of emotion and reason, Yi Xiaochuan should take care of Su Su's family and look after them.

Although it was somewhat shameful, Lu Zhi was indeed prepared to use moral kidnapping against Yi Xiaochuan.

Yi Xiaochuan's tone sounded somewhat low, "I also thought Su Su was dead, but I only found out earlier that I had guessed wrong."

"Oh?"

Upon learning that his younger daughter had contracted the plague, Lu Gong's face had been filled with sorrow. Now, hearing this, he noticed that Yi Xiaochuan's words had a hidden meaning, and there was likely a turning point, so he immediately stared at Yi Xiaochuan.

Yi Xiaochuan said, "Earlier, I saw Su Su once in the Imperial Palace."

"How could Su Su appear in the Imperial Palace?" Unaccountably, upon knowing that Lu Su was not dead, Lu Zhi felt a bit disappointed, but that was her younger sister after all, so she hurriedly asked.

"It's because of her master!"

Yi Xiaochuan thought of the person he hated most, Su Xuan's face flashing through his mind, and he said, "That day, before Su Su fell ill and was on the verge of death, a mysterious person appeared and took Su Su away. Later, I found out that Su Su still had a glimmer of life that hadn't been extinguished; it was that person who saved her. Later, that person came to Xianyang, and Su Su followed him to Xianyang. As for why Su Su appeared in the Imperial Palace, it is because her master has become an Immortal Master favored by the Emperor!"

"This is truly... surprising." Long after Yi Xiaochuan finished speaking, Lu Gong was the first to come to his senses and sighed.

Of course, although this story was surprising, the result was good.

At least, Su Su was not dead.

"Su Su is in the Imperial Palace learning arts from that Immortal Master, while you are outside the palace, which means you are not together?" Lu Zhi, however, keenly grasped another point.

This sentence made Yi Xiaochuan think of the situation when he reunited with Lu Su in the Imperial Palace. Thinking of how he had failed Lu Su, a trace of guilt couldn't help but rise in Yi Xiaochuan's heart, and then, he looked at Lu Zhi and shook his head gently.

Lu Zhi received a positive answer and was instantly ecstatic.

Yi Xiaochuan was not together with Lu Su; this news was simply too good.

In this way, she still had a chance.

Afterward, Yi Xiaochuan, Lu Gong, and Lu Zhi chatted about Lu Su. Because it was night and Lu Gong was an old man, he went to rest early. After Yi Xiaochuan and Lu Zhi were left alone, Lu Zhi immediately expressed her goodwill to Yi Xiaochuan.

She was a woman who dared to love and hate.

Back then, upon learning that her younger sister had chased after him, she had regretted it immensely, regretting that she hadn't been the one to pursue Yi Xiaochuan first. Now that she had a chance to rekindle their past, how could she give up this opportunity?

Unfortunately, faced with Lu Zhi's advances, Yi Xiaochuan behaved very distantly, and his attitude was extremely cold.

This made Lu Zhi feel another wave of pain.

"Is it because of Su Su?"

Lu Zhi couldn't help but think in her heart.

Although Su Su was in the Imperial Palace and Yi Xiaochuan was outside, the palace walls separated them, but just based on the fact that Su Su had contracted the plague to save Yi Xiaochuan, it was normal for it to move Yi Xiaochuan.

Unaccountably, Lu Zhi felt jealous of Lu Su again.

However, she did not show this trace of jealousy, but instead asked Yi Xiaochuan, "Xiaochuan, I want to see Su Su, is that possible?"

Yi Xiaochuan was somewhat overwhelmed by Lu Zhi's advances; he did not want to hurt any more women. At this moment, his only true love was Yushu, so he naturally did not want to have too many entanglements with Lu Zhi.

However, upon hearing Lu Zhi's request, he couldn't help but think of the time Lu Su had collapsed before him.

Faced with Lu Zhi's request, he could not think of any reason to refuse, so he said in a deep voice, "I will think of a way!"

The so-called way was to find Cui Wenzi.

Although Cui Wenzi had become the Chief Imperial Physician, he would still occasionally leave the palace. Back then, when Yi Xiaochuan had Cui Wenzi pass a message to Su Xuan, it was through the spare time he had when leaving the palace.

Now, he used the same trick and contacted Cui Wenzi again.

Upon learning that Lu Su's family had arrived in Xianyang, Cui Wenzi indicated he understood. After returning to the palace, he immediately told Lu Su, who was organizing medicinal herbs, about this.

"Father and Sister have arrived in Xianyang?"

Lu Su was very surprised. She had previously had the thought of returning to Peixian to visit her father and sister, but before she could put it into reality, her father and sister had come to Xianyang.

Lu Su did not say a word and put down what she was doing.

She immediately left the palace and, according to what Cui Wenzi said, went to a certain residence in Xianyang.

In the main hall of the residence, Lu Gong and Lu Zhi had different expressions.

Upon knowing that their daughter (younger sister) was not dead, they experienced all kinds of emotions.

When Lu Gong learned that Lu Zhi had asked Yi Xiaochuan to see Lu Su, he was also somewhat uneasy. He did not know if Yi Xiaochuan could contact Lu Su, but he truly missed Lu Su.

As his youngest daughter, Lu Su had grown up by his side since she was a child and had never even traveled far.

For Yi Xiaochuan, she had run outside all alone, and he didn't know how much suffering she had endured.

The sound of a door being pushed open rang out, and a familiar voice appeared before Lu Gong and Lu Zhi, "Father, Sister!"

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Gong and Lu Zhi immediately looked toward the doorway and saw a delicate-looking woman appearing before them; it was none other than Lu Su.

Father and daughter reunited, sisters reunited; these were all happy human events.

After Lu Su met with her father and sister, the hall was filled with the atmosphere of reunion.

Next was the time for reminiscing.

Even though they had learned of Lu Su's plight from Yi Xiaochuan earlier, what Yi Xiaochuan recounted was only what happened before Lu Su contracted the plague; as for what happened afterward, even Yi Xiaochuan did not know.

Upon learning that Lu Su was now learning medicine under Su Xuan and had become a healer, and was determined to become a divine doctor who saves the world, Lu Gong seemed very gratified. Although healing the sick and saving people was not an easy task, the fact that Su Su could have her own aspirations meant she had truly grown up.

What Lu Zhi cared about was another matter.

"Su Su, between you and Xiaochuan..."
