Chapter 1575: Something That Takes a lot of effort
"This is--"
"Miss Gu, this is what the Imperial Concubine instructed. Please be sure to hand it over to your father, Lord Gu."
“…”
Although he had already realized it in his heart, this letter and Ran Xiaoyu's serious expression seemed to remind Gu Qiqing again that something had happened to Si Muzhen in the palace.
She took it with careful hands.
Then he asked softly, "Sister Xiaoyu... What happened to the Imperial Concubine, she—what happened to her?"
Ran Xiaoyu glanced at her and said calmly, "Everything is fine, Madam Gu, don't worry."
"oh……"
"But this letter must be delivered to your father personally."
"I know. Father will return to Beijing today. I'm afraid he has already returned home."
"That's good. The palace staff will escort the young lady's carriage. If it's not necessary, don't stop along the way, and don't talk to anyone."
The "person" she was referring to was naturally Si Muzhen who was in the other car.
Gu Qiqing nodded seriously.
Ran Xiaoyu then took a step back and said to the driver, "Let's go."
Soon, the two carriages, escorted by several guards, slowly left the imperial city. Ran Xiaoyu stood on the steps, watching their backs disappear, then turned around and walked back.
When she returned to Yiku Palace, it was already dark.
The house was brightly lit.
Ran Xiaoyu originally thought that after what happened today, Nan Yan might not be able to eat, and might even be so angry that she couldn't sleep. However, she didn't expect that as soon as she walked out of the room, she saw people from the imperial kitchen coming.
The dishes are being laid on the table.
Nan Yan actually asked someone to serve dinner.
Ran Xiaoyu hurried forward to serve, only to see a few side dishes on the table. They were her favorites, which would have been fine, but the important thing was that there was also a big bowl of steaming chicken soup, sealed with butter, so there was not even steam coming out, but the aroma was fragrant.
Ran Xiaoyu filled half a bowl of rice and handed it to Nan Yan.
He whispered, "Your Majesty, you drink chicken soup at night. Aren't you afraid of not eating?"
Nan Yan held the bowl and sighed.
"It's not like I need to go to bed right away."
"Yes, that bed—I will have it taken apart and washed immediately."
Having said that, Nan Yan turned her head and looked at her bed. The quilt that had just wrapped Si Muzhen was still on it.
As if he was very upset, he said, "Throw that quilt out first!"
"yes."
Ran Xiaoyu hurried over, picked up the quilt and threw it to the palace maid outside, asking them to burn it.
When he came back, he found that Nan Yan had actually finished the half bowl of rice. After thinking for a moment, he handed the empty bowl to her and said, "Give her some more."
Ran Xiaoyu was shocked.
Although Nan Yan used to be very greedy and had a good appetite, her appetite has decreased significantly due to her injuries these days, especially at night, where she often puts down her chopsticks after eating only two bites of rice.
Aunt Tongyun and the others always coaxed and persuaded her, hoping that she would eat even a little more.
I ate so much today!
So he whispered, "It's so late, why does Your Majesty want to eat so much?"
“…”
"Be careful not to sleep at night."
Nan Yan's eyebrows were wrinkled with wrinkles, as if she was troubled by something. She sighed deeply and said, "I have to eat enough."
“…”
"There's still work to be done later."
"ah?"
Ran Xiaoyu looked at her in astonishment.
But seeing that she didn't say much, he didn't ask any more questions. He could only fill another half bowl of rice, watch Nan Yan soak it in chicken soup, and eat it quickly.
