Tong Huaan sent the doctor out, while Tong Ke and his wife were waiting outside.
"How is the situation?" Tong Ke asked softly.
"I need to rest for a few days." Doctor Yuan in the mansion was originally from the palace. His beard and hair were white and he was very good at medical skills. It was the emperor who sent him here in recognition of the Tong family's contribution. "The injury on the leg is not serious, as long as it is
Just rest and recuperate, you just have to suffer a little more, Mr. Young Master, and wait for some time before consummating the marriage."
Tong Huaan immediately smiled and said: "This is natural."
Tong Ke smiled and was about to speak when a slave came in. He came closer to Tong Ke and whispered a few words. Tong Ke was slightly startled and waved his hand to signal the slaves to get down.
"What's wrong?" Seeing her husband's confused expression, the child's wife immediately asked softly.
Tong Ke did not answer, but smiled and said: "That's good, but there is nothing more important than the days to come. Doctor Yuan, someone from the palace just came to deliver a message, saying that the emperor wanted to see Xiaoye, and the wound on Xiaoye's knee was
How is your injury? Can you enter the palace?"
"It's nothing serious." Dr. Yuan smiled and said, "They took a look at it yesterday when they came back, and they took a look again today. Miss Xiaoye can already walk freely on the ground. It seems that Mr. Xuan has been carefully taken care of on the road and can follow the adults.
Enter the palace together."
Tong Ke nodded and said to his wife: "Go and clean up for Xiaoye. The emperor asked the eunuchs from the palace to come and send a message, saying that a banquet was held in the palace. To calm Xiaoye's shock, please let us go over immediately." After looking at it,
Doctor Yuan, who had already walked away, hesitated and whispered, "Why do you feel uneasy? I don't know why the emperor wants to see Xiaoye."
The child wife was also slightly startled. For Xiaoye, Tong Ke was transferred to a foreign job. The emperor only met Xiaoye once when he was six years old, and it was only in a hurry. The emperor did give some gifts, but what is the purpose of seeing him again now?
The emperor is a man with a lot of things to do, and he is busy with political affairs in the court. How could he suddenly send someone in person to inform him that he would hold a banquet in the palace to calm Xiaoye's shock?
"Ms. sir—" the child's wife was a little uneasy and said softly, "does anyone know something?"
"Probably not." Tong Ke calmed down and said slowly, "We'll see what happens at that time. As long as we don't admit it, there shouldn't be anything we can do. After all, we still have my father's bad side."
The child wife did not speak any more and lowered her head slightly. She was worried because of something in her heart. She hoped that God would keep Xiaoye safe and sound.
The carriage in General Tong's Mansion entered the inner perimeter of the palace.
The royal palace of Wumeng Kingdom is extremely exquisitely built. Although it does not occupy a large area, the scenery is everywhere and it is not boring to look at.
The carriage stopped, and there were already eunuchs standing waiting. They welcomed Tong Ke, his wife, and Tong Xiaoye into the inner garden. The emperor specially chose a place in the garden to set up a banquet.
"Tong Aiqing." The emperor's slightly hoarse voice sounded.
Tong Ke, his wife and Tong Xiaoye did not dare to raise their heads and knelt down to salute in the direction of the sound.
"Are you Tong Xiaoye?" a clear voice asked unfriendly.
Tong Xiaoye was stunned for a moment, but did not dare to raise his head. He only responded softly, "Yes."
"Let's all get up. There are no outsiders at this time. It's just a banquet to calm Miss Xiaoye's shock. Just treat it as being in your own home and feel free to do whatever you want." The emperor smiled and said slowly.
Tong Xiaoye felt as if everyone's eyes were focused on her, and she felt a little awkward, but she couldn't show it, so she had to endure it and stood up together with her parents.
