Chapter 920

Huo Zhao stayed at the Prince's Mansion for two days, spending his days chatting and laughing with Zhong Jie and Madam Chen, and at most taking a walk in the backyard. His days passed uneventfully.

That afternoon, when Huo Zhao took a nap, Le An brought her some news.

"Young Madam, the young master of the Qu family is all better!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhao was stunned.

alright?

How is that possible?

The imperial physician said that it would be good enough if he could be saved, and there was absolutely no possibility of recovery!

"really?"

Le'an nodded, clearly surprised as well: "It's absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes today. The young master is lively and energetic, and his speech and actions are no different from those of a normal person!"

Only after Le'an said that did Huo Zhao realize why he felt that Qu Dun's figure was a bit strange.

Because it's perfectly normal.

At this moment, Jixiang frowned and said, "But wasn't it the imperial physician who made the diagnosis that day? Could the imperial physician make a mistake?"

Imperial physicians are human too, so of course they can make mistakes.

However, Huo Zhao remembered that it wasn't just one imperial physician who made such a diagnosis that day.

At the time, a physician from the prefecture said the same thing.

The chances of two people making a mistake together are very small.

Huo Zhao had a vague premonition.

There is probably more to this story than meets the eye.

"Unfortunately, too much time has passed, and even if we wanted to find that osmanthus honey now, we couldn't."

Now there's truly no way to prove it.

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhao frowned even more deeply.

Therefore, even if there are other hidden reasons behind this, they cannot be found out in a short time.

Rather than that...

“Jixiang, please send a letter to Consort Qu for me,” Huo Zhao said. “Just say that I didn’t understand Consort Qu’s intentions before, and now I want to have a good talk with her. The more humble you are, the better.”

"Young Madam, what are you doing meeting Consort Qu?" Le'an frowned. "That woman is so arrogant and domineering. If you enter the palace, she will definitely make things difficult for you!"

"Although Consort Qu is foolish, she still cares about her mother and younger brother. Now that we finally have such good news, of course we have to let her know."

Her attitude was really too abnormal.

Huo Zhao usually has a good temper, but to say that she is the kind of person who repays evil with kindness is absolutely not true.

That leaves only one possibility...

Huo Zhao has other plans!

So Le'an stopped worrying about it and turned around to do as instructed.

Not long after, Consort Qu replied to the invitation, asking her to come to the palace the next day.

But because of this reply, Jixiang and Le'an's hearts were filled with anxiety.

“Young Madam, you must take good care of yourself when you go to the palace tomorrow,” Jixiang said. “Why don’t we tell the Princess Consort that she will accompany you, so that we can look after each other?”

"No need. Mother has been in a bad mood these past few days. Besides, I'm not going to the palace to fight. Nothing will happen to me."

Moreover, the current Empress is not the same as the previous one; a mere Consort Qu wouldn't dare to do anything to her.

When Shen Rang returned that evening, Huo Zhao told him about it.

Shen Rang was naturally worried: "Do your father-in-law and mother-in-law know about this?"
