Such shalessness, playing by such unconventional rules, Emperor Yongning had never seen anything like it in his life.
This little brat truly redefined his self-awareness and worldview.
At this mont, he dared not even think about how the brat boldly entered the mountain cave in front of them, t with Little Seventeen, and spent so much ti with him. How mocking of their incompetence must have filled his heart.
His lifeti of reputation and that of the Imperial Guard were both ruined by a little brat.
Yet, those fools of the Imperial Guard couldn’t figure out what had happened at all. Seeing that the target had not appeared for a while, they grew anxious and deliberately sent soone to ask Emperor Yongning whether they should continue to wait.
After hearing the inquiry, Emperor Yongning’s anger grew even more intense, almost choking on his breath. It was fortunate that Xiao Lizi, who was serving by his side, noticed and quickly helped soothe his chest. After a while, he finally ca around.
The inquiry from the Imperial Guard was akin to tearing open his wound for him to see again. No wonder he couldn’t be happy about it.
"Return."
Emperor Yongning waved his sleeves angrily and stord off first.
The Imperial Guard who ca to inquire stood bewildered, unsure whether to stay put or continue questioning. He couldn’t understand what had gone wrong, why the Sovereign looked so angry.
He looked inquiringly at Xiao Lizi, asking, "Eunuch, did I say sothing wrong?"
Xiao Lizi, being Emperor Yongning’s confidant, understood his thoughts better than anyone.
The Imperial Guard hoped Xiao Lizi would provide an answer, but Xiao Lizi just replied, "Tell your leader to lift the ambush imdiately and return to their duties," and then proceeded to follow Emperor Yongning.
Xiao Lizi was quite concerned about Emperor Yongning’s health at the mont.
Because Emperor Yongning had recently been unable to sleep over the matter of finding the princess, his worries had turned into an illness. Today, such a big anger was kindled, and he feared sothing might happen with that breath of his.
Xiao Lizi’s concerns were valid; Emperor Yongning truly couldn’t hold on this ti. After today, his physical consumption reached its breaking point.
As soon as he returned to the Imperial Study Room, he couldn’t hold it any longer and coughed up a mouthful of blood, fainting. Liu Pin was so frightened, she paled and scrambled out to call the Imperial Physician.
...
With Emperor Yongning’s collapse, the palace instantly sank into a terrible, oppressive atmosphere. All the concubines and ladies, while taking care of the sickness, were careful with their speech and actions, holding their tails between their legs. The palace attendants dared not speak loudly, dared not walk quickly, and certainly dared not laugh, going about their tasks with somber faces, their work efficiency noticeably improved.
But this increase made everyone miserable, and they all silently prayed for Emperor Yongning to recover quickly.
Only in the Cold Palace did life seem like a secluded paradise, untouched by any adverse happenings, remaining calm and cool, unchanged from the past.
And Jun Yu kept his promise, secretly sending over not only rice but also seeds he had asked to buy, which arrived at the Cold Palace on ti, both diverse in variety and abundant in quantity.
If all of them were planted, they could feed everyone in the Cold Palace for two years without any problem.
Jun Ning was delighted, keeping half and planning to plant the other half.
Qiong Hua shared the sa thought; mother and son were on the sa page.
However, the weeding was not yet complete, nor had the fields been tilled. So, they could not plant the vegetables yet; they had to prepare the soil first.
Every day, mother and son worked from sunrise to sunset. Although tiring, as their days held hope, they did not feel weary but instead enjoyed it.
The group of people who were constantly observing...
