"I'm just a little tired, nothing serious. I've already given His Majesty acupuncture, and I'll come back tomorrow morning to give him another treatment. He should wake up in three days at the latest." Zhu Chumo said calmly before leaving.
"Fourth Senior Brother, don't rush to leave the palace. Stay here for the next few days so it will be convenient for you to come and treat Father Emperor. I'll have someone take you to bathe and change." Xingxing gestured to the clever little eunuch beside her.
Zhu Chumo did not refuse. He was indeed exhausted. His junior brother had sent several letters urging him to hurry, so he dared not delay and had been traveling at full speed.
