Indeed, a virtuous wife, filial sons, and daughters, to have co so early, it sowhat makes her and the Empress seem late.
Since they have all arrived, where is the Fifth Prince, Chu Liange?
Yun Jinnian thought of this, her body stiffened, her footsteps faltered, and she almost fell.
Hei, following by her side, was quick to support Yun Jinnian. Seeing Yun Jinnian’s face turn pale and beads of sweat forming on her forehead, she worriedly called out in a low voice, "Miss?"
Because it was cool in the morning, the Empress had suggested walking over to enjoy the scenery of the Imperial Palace.
Looking back, she would have preferred to ride in a sedan chair.
Upon hearing this, the Empress looked towards Yun Jinnian, "What’s the matter?"
Yun Jinnian shook her head and took a silk handkerchief to wipe her forehead, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, I am fine!"
"That’s good, if you don’t feel well, you must speak up!" the Empress said, pausing for a mont, "Did you not sleep well last night?"
"No, I slept very well last night!" Yun Jinnian said, lowering her eyes.
She decided that later on she would keep her head down and avoid looking at people.
That way, she wouldn’t have to see Chu Liange.
In her past life, he had brought her such misery. In this life, she must stay as far away from him as possible.
Thinking of this, Yun Jinnian was astonished.
She no longer harbored such deep resentnt.
It seed she had co to terms with it, and even let it go.
"This subject has seen the Empress!"
Everyone paid their respects, yet their voices were surprisingly uniform.
"Rise," the Empress said warmly.
Her eyes swept over Yun Jinnian, who was keeping her head down, and her puzzlent only increased.
Yun Jinnian bowed her head even further, "This subject has seen all the noble ladies, good evening to you, and has seen all the Princes..."
"Jinnian, no need for such formality, let’s go inside and see the Emperor for his consultation!" the Empress spoke softly, stopping Yun Jinnian from continuing to greet the Princes, the consorts of the Princes, and the Princesses.
"Yes!"
Yun Jinnian hurriedly replied and followed the Empress into Yangxin Hall.
The consorts, Princes, and Princesses were all very curious. This Miss Yun, who had dared to talk back to Head Physician Pan yesterday, was keeping her head low today?
It puzzled them greatly.
Chu Liange stood beside the Noble Consort, covering his chest with his hand.
He felt an ache and tightness in his chest since the mont he saw Miss Yun appear, as though he had lost sothing vitally important, which no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t retrieve.
He was also puzzled. What did this Miss Yun look like? Why was she always keeping her head down?
No one understood.
Yun Jinnian followed the Empress into Yangxin Hall, where the Palace Maids and eunuchs imdiately bowed, "We have seen the Empress and Miss Yun!"
The Empress, in her pride, did not spare them an extra glance, and Yun Jinnian kept her head down.
They entered the bedchamber.
The Emperor had already risen and was now leaning against the headboard.
"This consort has seen the Emperor!"
Respectful and indifferent, showing concern on the surface, but not in the heart.
The Emperor saw it clearly and nodded faintly, looking at Yun Jinnian with her head down, "What’s the matter? Did you not sleep well last night?"
Yun Jinnian, startled by his voice, quickly gathered her spirits and approached to bow, "I have seen the Emperor! I am fine, and I slept very well last night. It’s just that I suddenly thought of the poison in the Emperor’s body, perhaps there is another way to nourish the Poisonous Insect back to health, so I was a bit distracted!"
Having said this, Yun Jinnian was sowhat impressed with herself.
When it ca to lying, she could do so with an unwavering face.
"It’s kind of you to be so considerate!"
Though still quite weak, the Emperor had improved a lot after taking the Snow Lotus Pills given by Yun Jinnian.
Eunuch Hai imdiately prepared everything, watching Yun Jinnian as she wiped her hands to take the Emperor’s pulse.
After a short while, Yun Jinnian finally said, "Emperor, I need to draw so blood again later!"
