Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang Chi’s status was not ordinary. Moreover, those princes were eyeing the throne covetously. Was it okay for Jiang Chi to stay here?
“Don’t worry, I’ve already made arrangents. Nothing will happen. Get ready. We’re going to the palace.”
Hearing Jiang Ying’s words, Ning Yue no longer insisted. All he had to do was make the arrangents.
“I’ve prepared everything. Let’s go to the palace.” Gu Yu put away his things and followed Jiang Ying towards the carriage.
Ning Yue followed behind the two of them. This ti, she was still a little nervous. This was different from eting the head of state in the modern world.
This ti, she was going to et an emperor who could take people’s heads at will. If things went wrong, she might lose her life. She had to deal with this calmly.
Recalling their true motive for entering the palace, Ning Yue asked, “What exactly is wrong with the emperor’s health?”
Jiang Ying shook his head. “I don’t know. Seven days ago, Uncle Emperor fell seriously ill. After that, he was bedridden.”
“At first, the imperial physicians thought that Uncle Emperor had caught a cold and would be fine after treatnt. However, many complications arose in Uncle Emperor. The imperial physicians couldn’t find the cause of the illness, so they could only treat the symptoms.”
Jiang Ying sighed.
It was not that the imperial physicians were not capable enough, but that the illness was about to erupt. They could not find the reason, causing the emperor’s body to grow weaker and weaker.
Hearing Jiang Ying’s words, Gu Yu had so guesses.
“Did the emperor eat anything before he fell ill?” Gu Yu asked.
“I’m not sure. I’ll have to ask the people around Uncle Emperor,” Jiang Chi said.
After all, it was not a good thing to investigate the habits of an emperor, much less an easy task. One might lose their life.
“Master, do you have any guesses?” Ning Yue asked.
Gu Yu stroked his beard and nodded slightly. “I can roughly guess. We’ll have to wait and see.”
The three of them quickly arrived at the palace. After Jiang Ying took out the Empress’s token, a servant appeared and brought the three of them to the emperor’s residence.
The servant knocked on the door and said softly, “Your Highness, I’ve brought Doctor Gu and Little Divine Doctor Ning here.”
Little Divine Doctor Ning? Ning Yue was stunned for a mont. It seed that Jiang Ying had already told her that she would be coming to the palace.
After a while, a pleasant and dignified voice ca from the room. “Co in!”
The mont the door opened, Ning Yue saw a graceful woman in a phoenix robe.
This should be the Empress, right? Ning Yue guessed.
The empress sized up Gu Yu and Ning Yue before her gaze fell on Ning Yue.
Ning Yue was about to step forward to greet her when Gu Yu spoke first. “Your Majesty, where is the emperor?”
Staying in the palace for too long was really uncomfortable. Gu Yu hated this place the most.
If it weren’t for Ning Yue, he wouldn’t have bothered to co in.
The empress knew Gu Yu’s personality and was no longer surprised by his actions. She made a gesture of invitation. “Doctor Gu, Young Doctor Ning, this way please.”
“Thank you, Your Highness,” Ning Yue said.
The empress didn’t say anything. She knew very well how Gu Yu treated people, so she didn’t follow him into the bedroom. Instead, she began to communicate with Jiang Ying outside.
“Is this Miss Ning who saved Xiaochi in your letter?” the empress asked.
Jiang Ying smiled and nodded. “Yes.”
“She’s a blessed person. She’s also an opinionated and unyielding person.” The empress nodded in evaluation.
“Yes. Yueyue is a very opinionated woman. She’s different from other girls,” Jiang Ying said.
The empress couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh out loud. “Look, the mont you ntion her, the smile on your face disappears.”
Just as Jiang Ying was about to reply, the palace servant who had just led them to the empress walked over and said softly, “Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager heard that the divine doctor has arrived. She insisted on coming over to take a look.”
“Hurry up and invite Mother in.” When the empress heard that the Empress Dowager was coming, she hurriedly got the servants to welco her in.
“There’s no need to invite in. I’m already here.”
A nanny walked in, supporting the Empress Dowager.
“Imperial Grandmother!” Jiang Ying stepped forward happily to greet the Empress Dowager.
