Qin Jue was taking the goat milk from Sanhezi's hand, so he naturally didn't notice Xiao Xi'er's listless expression.

After Qin Jue finished serving the goat milk, she scooped up a spoonful and brought it to the little boy's lips.

But instead of seeing Xiao Xi'er open her mouth, she looked like her eyes were about to close.

"What's wrong, Xiaoxi'er?"

Qin Jue asked with obvious concern, and then placed the goat milk in her hand onto the tray in Sanhezi's hand.

"Father, I'm sleepy."

Qin Jue, who was tense, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xiao Xi'er say she was sleepy and not feeling unwell.

"Okay, Daddy will carry you back to bed to sleep."

With her eyes closed, Xiao Xi'er nodded unconsciously without saying a word. Qin Jue simply assumed she was too sleepy and didn't think much of it.

After helping Xiao Xi'er remove her clothes and shoes, Qin Jue put her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then went to continue eating.

——

In the middle of the night, Qin Jue felt something trembling beside her and opened her eyes.

The first thing Qin Jue saw when he opened his eyes was Xiao Xi'er's trembling body, which panicked him, and he began calling out Xiao Xi'er's name.

"Little Xi'er? Little Xi'er?"

The trembling Xiao Xi'er didn't answer Qin Jue's question. Qin Jue, using the moonlight, looked at Xiao Xi'er's flushed face and reached out to cover her forehead.

You don't know until you touch it. The touch startled Qin Jue, who immediately stood up and frantically started calling for Sanhezi.

"Sanhezi... Summon the imperial physician. Quickly, summon the imperial physician!"

"Yes, Your Majesty. This servant will go immediately."

Sanhezi, who was resting by the door, heard Qin Jue's slightly panicked voice asking to summon the imperial physician. Startled, she agreed and immediately ran towards the Imperial Hospital.
