but……
"When did I say she was confined to her quarters?" Yu Jingchen asked.
"Didn't His Majesty tell you before that Miss should stay in Ya Jing Residence and not go out casually? He also said that no one is allowed to set foot in Ya Jing Residence..." Qianxia replied.
"I did say it, but what did I say? Did I say I was confined to my quarters?" Yu Jingchen's anger flared up again.
"I meant for her to rest and recover properly, so she shouldn't wander around aimlessly. Also, I meant that no one from outside is allowed to come in, and you can't leave without my permission." Yu Jingchen felt his temples throbbing uncontrollably.
"Forget it, I'm too stupid to explain myself. Xinglai, bring the Imperial Kitchen and the Imperial Medical Bureau!" He was furious.
"Yes," I replied, glad to accept the order.
Nan Zhiyun was quite frightened by Yu Jingchen's outburst of temper and didn't dare to say a word.
"You'll get dizzy from standing again soon. Why don't you sit down? It's so windy outside. Don't you know your physical condition? Do you want to stay in bed for months?" Yu Jingchen said in an unfriendly tone to Nan Zhiyun.
"Your Highness..." Nan Zhiyun was trembling with fear, not knowing what she was going to say, but Yu Jingchen could guess what she was going to say, so he simply interrupted her instead of letting her continue: "Bring out two chairs, and also bring out a cloak to put on her."
The servants rushed to bring chairs, and only after Yu Jingchen sat down did he look at the bewildered Nan Zhiyun: "Not going to sit? Do I need to invite you to sit down? I brought two chairs, and you don't know to sit? Do you think I'm bored, or that I'm letting a ghost sit?"
"This concubine dares not," Nan Zhiyun quickly stepped forward and sat down, but... she was truly restless. She had been nervous while standing, and now that she was seated, she was even more at a loss.
They didn't even dare to sit properly, so they just leaned lightly against the chair with their backs straight.
"Calling you stupid is no exaggeration. Just sit still." Yu Jingchen felt exhausted.
Nan Zhiyun suddenly felt that Yu Jingchen had become more talkative. Whenever he opened his mouth, it was always to scold her. She had gotten used to it before, but now it still made her feel uncomfortable.
Sensing that Nan Zhiyun's mood had suddenly dropped, Yu Jingchen was somewhat puzzled. What was wrong? Thinking this, he actually asked, "What's wrong?"
Nan Zhiyun shook her head, suppressing her emotions. Then, realizing that shaking her head like that wasn't appropriate, she quickly added, "This concubine is fine."
Yu Jingchen frowned: "Every time you say you're fine, I feel there's a big problem. Now, tell me why?"
"I'm really alright," Nan Zhiyun said with a forced smile.
Yu Jingchen remained silent for a while before finally asking, "Because of what I said? Do you feel like I scolded you? That I was harsh with you?" He had never seen her like this before.
Of course I haven't seen it. Would you have cared about these things in the past? Yu Jingchen still doesn't know that some things are actually changing quietly.
“It was because I was ignorant,” Nan Zhiyun replied.
Yu Jingchen fell silent again. He vaguely remembered what Nan Zhiyun looked like before she entered the palace. She was always there when he went to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager, and she always smiled brightly when she saw him. So when did she become like this?
"Sit still, it's not that scary, and I won't punish you," Yu Jingchen said.
