Phoenix Palace
In the golden palace, the first rays of morning sunlight slanted in through the windows, and everywhere the eye could see was dazzling with light.
As soon as Yu Qianqian raised her eyes, she was unexpectedly enveloped in golden light. She quickly raised her hand, instinctively shielding her vision, and screamed.
"What time is it now? Why hasn't anyone woken me up?!"
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has already instructed that Your Majesty should rest more and move around less..."
With a tap of her hands, Yu Qianqian immediately sat up straight on the couch. While signaling for a maid to come and help her change and get out of bed, she muttered indignantly, "It's always like this. What terrible mistake have I made that I have to be placed under house arrest? I'm a human being too. Don't I have any dignity?"
"Besides, if I don't go out, how can I find Mo Jingnian to treat my face?" Her face alternated between black and white, she was full of anger with nowhere to vent it, her eyes were flashing with a fierce light, and she looked at everyone with a smug look.
The two palace maids, their faces bowed, caught a glimpse of Yu Qianqian's dark expression and trembled with fear. Yet, they forced smiles and replied in unison, "Your Majesty... His Majesty has already instructed that Young Master Mo should come to Fengyi Palace on time to treat Your Majesty. You can rest assured that His Majesty has considered everything very thoroughly."
Hearing this, she felt that her self-esteem as the empress had been greatly humiliated, and that she was even worse off than a lowly palace maid.
He leaned closer to the bronze mirror and carefully examined the scar on half of his face. It seemed to have faded a bit, but the area was still the same size. Covering the scar with a skin-colored mask made him look much more comfortable.
After all, it's only been two days since the medicine was applied, and the fact that it's already showing results means the medicine is effective for her. If her face can be restored to its original state, she won't have to wear a mask to see people anymore.
Just as she was thinking this, she heard a voice coming from afar outside the palace: "Your Majesty, it's time for breakfast."
On a sudden thought, she remembered that Mu Beichen had placed her under house arrest yesterday over a trivial matter, and she was immediately filled with anger.
"No need, I'm already full of anger!" Yu Qianqian glanced coldly at the palace maids who were bringing breakfast, turned her head away in annoyance, and the tassels on her hairpins jingled as she moved.
Before long, with her command, everyone vanished in the blink of an eye.
Watching the palace maids leave the hall, Yu Qianqian turned around angrily, about to return to her bed to continue sleeping, when suddenly her vision blurred and she leaned straight back, immediately feeling an unprecedented weakness in her body.
Before long, Yu Qianqian's face turned pale. This feeling of weakness made it difficult for her to even get up.
"Someone come here..." Yu Qianqian hurriedly called out towards the door, "I...I want to eat..."
The faint sound lingered at the corner of his mouth, but didn't travel far.
After a long while, no one responded to her.
She was completely unprepared for this sudden accident. Because she had loved martial arts since childhood, she had always been exceptionally healthy. Even if she had minor illnesses, she could recover without medicine thanks to her strong resistance. But this time, her illness was really too abnormal.
She couldn't figure out what had caused her to suddenly fall ill.
Digging her fingernails into the ground, Yu Qianqian shakily got up. She tried to calm herself by pressing her chest and using her internal energy to regulate her breathing, barely managing to regain some strength.
