After a deep sleep all night, Huan Ci woke up from nightmares one after another.
It was already completely bright, and the obvious bloody smell from last night was no longer in the room. She was very weak, and the unbearable pain from last night seemed to have not completely disappeared.
A little maid came in holding a bowl of hot medicine, stepped forward and slowly helped her up.
"Where's the doctor?" Huan Ci weakly grabbed her hand.
"My maid will send someone to invite you right now."
"No, you go find my clothes first and prepare the carriage. I want to go back to Daizhou."
"Girl, you can't do this." The little maid was panicked. She wanted to stop her but didn't dare to step forward.
Huan Ci turned over and wanted to get out of bed, but soon noticed something was wrong. The little maid took this opportunity to step forward and support her: "Girl, the doctor won't let you get off the ground."
"Where's Sweeping Ye? Where is he now?" Huan Ci asked, tugging on her sleeve.
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain in the inner room was opened, and the doctor was seen standing outside the curtain, with Su Ye following behind him.
"You can't walk around now." The doctor glanced at her lightly, his tone not gentle.
Saoye scratched his head in embarrassment, and after hesitating for a while, he finally walked into the back room. Huan Ci glanced at him and felt that he was very decadent today, with obvious stubble, and he was not as energetic as before.
"Miss Huan, you need to take better care of yourself."
After a while, the man finally spoke.
Huan Ci raised his eyes and looked at him: "Where is my father's body? Did they bring it back?"
The man hesitated and didn't speak for a long time.
"Sao Ye, please send me back to Daizhou. I want to see him." Huan Ci's tears suddenly fell and he looked at the man sadly.
Sao Ye stared at her and said softly: "Miss Huan, Sangzhou was captured by the Yong people, and King Dingyuan——"
"I understand what you mean." Huan Ci interrupted him. She wiped her tears with a handkerchief and then asked, "What's the situation in the capital?"
"Your Majesty is fine now. I heard that it was a concubine who poisoned her. Now the concubine has been imprisoned." Sao Ye stopped hesitating and spoke much faster.
"Does the court know about my father now?"
"It must have been these two days. One more thing, last night I sent someone to deliver a letter to Third Master, telling him about the girl's condition."
"Well, he should also know." Huan Ci murmured.
The doctor turned around and glanced at Ye coldly: "Stop talking and let me take a good pulse."
Sao Ye quickly fell silent and looked at the doctor nervously.
After a long time, the old doctor raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Take the medicine, take good care of it, and don't work too hard."
Saoye breathed a sigh of relief, went up to thank the doctor, and sent him out respectfully.
When he came in again, Huan Ci was already lying face down. The medicine bowl on the low cabinet was empty. Saoye shook his head helplessly, looked at the maid standing next to him, and then went out.
Although Huan Ci was lying down, she was not sleepy at all. Now whenever she closed her eyes, her father's tragic death would appear in her mind. There was even the child who was gone. When she dreamed last night, her father's tragic death would appear in her mind.
The dream was full of two people.
Tears poured down her cheeks, and most of the pillow was quickly soaked. She was so tired, and she fell asleep once after an unknown amount of time.
One day later.
Fu Shen stood quietly in front of the dragon bed, watching the woman beside the bed feeding the man medicine little by little. She was the daughter of the current prime minister and the current queen.
Originally, Zong Zheng was feeling better, but after the emergency report was delivered last night, the man stayed up all night, and ended up fainting again this morning.
As soon as he entered the palace, he heard that the person who poisoned him was Liu Rao, whom he had always thought was submissive. Fu Shen found it interesting, but also a little frightened. After the emergency report was delivered last night, he also had trouble sleeping and eating.
The first thing he worried about was Huan Ci, and he wondered if Sao Ye could be smarter and find a way to hide the news from him. Then he began to worry about the future of Rong Guo.
After the battle, their strength seemed to have been exhausted.
He was still trying to figure out Yu Wenyan's words. Although he had already conveyed the message to the man, the decision-making power was not in his hands after all, and the other person he wanted to win over had died on the battlefield. Even if he was alive, he would never miss Huan Yuan.
will join forces with him.
"I always said that my father lured wolves into the house, and now I actually want to use the same method as him. It's really ridiculous." Zong Zhenglu finished drinking the medicine and waved the queen to go out first.
The queen raised her eyes to look at Fu Shen and whispered: "Don't make your majesty too tired."
"Wei Chen knows." Fu Shen nodded and watched her leave the hall.
"Do you think I'm ridiculous?" Zong Zhenglu said suddenly.
He didn't look at Fu Shen, but just stared at the bed curtain silently. The prayer beads in his hand creaked as he squeezed them, and the man's face became increasingly gloomy.
"I really indulged her too much."
After a long time, he finally spat out.
Fu Shen's eyes narrowed slightly, and when he spoke, only the two of them could hear: "Is Your Majesty so sure it's her?"
Zong Zhenglu suddenly raised his head and stared at Fu Shen for a moment, with a trace of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
At this time, the chief eunuch shouted loudly outside: "Your Majesty, someone has sent an urgent report to Lord Fu."
Fu Shen's expression changed instantly and he looked at Zong Zhenglu expressionlessly.

After lying in bed for two full days, Huan Ci's complexion finally recovered. She had already made up her mind to leave tomorrow no matter what. Even though her father was gone, there were still so many people waiting for her in Prince Dingyuan's palace.
, now the burden has fallen on her.
She estimated that Fu Shen should already know about her miscarriage by this time, but he was so busy that he might be left in the capital by Zong Zhenglu.
The sachet under the pillow exuded fragrance, reminding her of her father's death. Huan Ci took out the sachet and held it in her hand, her eyes filled with tears.
This was what Fu Shen saw when he opened the curtain and came in. The woman's hair was disheveled and she was lying on the bed in a daze, with tears falling down her cheeks.
"Aci, I'm back." He walked forward cautiously and gently held her hand.
Huan Ci looked so haggard now that Fu Shen didn't even dare to touch her hard.
Huan Ci suddenly came back to his senses and looked at the man who suddenly appeared.
"Amo!" She murmured softly, but her eyes lost focus.
The man put his hand on her pale lips and touched her cheek tenderly: "I shouldn't have left."
"Ah Mo, you're finally here, you're finally back." Huan Ci could no longer hold back and threw himself into the man's arms, crying bitterly.
After the incident, although she kept crying, she always cried silently, and no one could go up to comfort her. Now she finally cried out, and everyone standing in the yard could hear it clearly.
.
Some of the little maids who had been watching over her these past few days were also infected by her, and their eyes became red unknowingly.
