Unable to bear the throbbing in her eyes any longer, she nodded twice and leaned her head to the side, falling back into Jing Yan's arms.
After Yue Jiang fell asleep, Jing Yan had the sedan chair from the East Palace take her back. Of course, Yue Jiang might not wake up for a while, so she would need to be escorted down to Qi Luan Palace.
Jingyan and Yuejiang then went back to the inner palace to settle the person in.
