Chapter 1375: Now it’s better, the cold has worsened!
Wu Wan watched her take a sip of tea and said, "Although she has already established a foothold, don't be too relaxed about the Imperial Concubine's situation."
Gao Yurong looked up at her: "Your Majesty means..."
Wu Wan gently scratched the corner of her lips with her little fingernail and said in a deep voice, "I am always worried about her."
“…”
"If she had truly fallen out of favor, her title should have been taken away long ago. But until now, she is still a noble concubine. I'm afraid the emperor hasn't completely given up on her."
“…”
"Besides, her return this time always gave me a bad feeling."
Gao Yurong's eyebrows raised slightly: "Madam, are you talking about the two days she was missing outside?"
"That's right."
"So far, there is still no result?"
"I've also sent people to investigate, but those idiots all said they couldn't find anything out of the wilderness and near water. It's really useless!"
Gao Yurong thought for a moment and said, "I heard that the Emperor is still investigating as well?"
"That's right. The Emperor is still asking the Imperial Guard to investigate this matter. It's understandable that the Emperor takes this matter very seriously."
“…”
"I'm not afraid of anything else, but I don't want to see her regain her favor, and I don't want to see her so proud!"
"I understand. But——"
"Just what?"
"It's just that she's already in the cold palace, and the cold palace—now the emperor has someone watching over it, not everyone can come and go as they please."
"I heard that the little eunuch, called Little Button, comes in and out frequently."
"He can come and go, I'm afraid it must be approved by the higher-ups."
“…”
Hearing this, Wu Wan's face became even darker.
After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "I don't care, you have to find a way for me!"
“…”
"Even if I can't punish her, at least I can make her suffer a little. Anyway, I don't want to see her get too complacent!"
Gao Yurong looked at her hesitantly and could only say, "Yes, I will definitely find a way."

Although Wu Wan didn't want to see Nan Yan being too proud, in fact, Nan Yan didn't look proud at the moment.
I was pushed heavily onto the bed, a thick quilt was covered on me, and I was not allowed to move.
This look, even if not embarrassing, is at least ridiculous.
She said with a bitter face: "Is it that serious?"
But just after she finished speaking, she couldn't help coughing, and she couldn't stop coughing. She coughed so much that she couldn't straighten her back. Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly sat down beside the bed and gently patted her back to help her breathe.
Aunt Tongyun on the side said unhappily, "Madam, are you still going to say it's not serious?"
“…”
"No matter what I told you the first two days, you wouldn't listen and insisted on sitting by the window to enjoy the fresh air. Now look how bad your cold is!
“…”
"It's going to get even colder in two days. Do you want to be sick all winter like this?!"
It was rare for someone as gentle as Aunt Tongyun to get angry. Nan Yan couldn't help but feel intimidated and could only smile and say, "I didn't expect it. I was just looking at the scenery."
Nian Qiu, who was standing by, also chimed in, "Your Highness shouldn't be like this. You should listen to your aunt."
All of a sudden, I was isolated by them.
However, Ran Xiaoyu, who usually had the hottest temper and dared to lose her temper at her, did not say anything immediately, but kept patting her on the back gently.
In recent days, she has been so silent. Sometimes she is doing something with her hands, but she doesn't seem to know what she is doing and is often distracted.
Nan Yan said, "Xiao Yu."
"Um?"
Ran Xiaoyu patted her back and began to daydream again. When he heard her calling him, he raised his head hurriedly: "What? What's wrong?"
“…”
Seeing her so distraught, Nan Yan sighed helplessly.
Aunt Tongyun, who was standing by, didn't know what happened outside, but she had seen how Ran Xiaoyu had been recently. She could only sigh and say, "When Xiaokouzi comes back later, tell him if he can ask the Imperial Pharmacy to make some medicine for the Empress."
When Nan Yan heard this, she immediately said, "That's not necessary, is it? Auntie, haven't you been prescribing pills for me?"
Aunt Tongyun said, "There aren't many medicinal herbs that can be sent to the cold palace. Those pills can only have a small effect. Now that the queen's cold is so severe, taking pills alone will not do. She must take decoctions!"
"this--"
"My Lady, please don't be willful. Your body is no joke!"
"Well, alright."
Nan Yan couldn't argue with her, so she could only agree dejectedly. Ran Xiaoyu asked, "What medicine do you want to boil?"
Aunt Tongyun thought for a moment and said, "Aconite Soup is for the Queen to dispel the cold."
"Okay, I'll talk to him later."
"Why."
After explaining everything here, Aunt Tongyun took Nian Qiu downstairs to do things. Nan Yan slept on the bed, but she didn't close her eyes. She just looked at Ran Xiaoyu who was sitting beside the bed. She looked absent-minded and no one knew what she was thinking.
Really, I've never seen her like this before.
After a while, calculating the time, Xiaokouzi was about to arrive, and Nan Yan suddenly said: "Xiaoyu, I'm a little thirsty."
"Huh? Oh."
Although Ran Xiaoyu was often absent-minded, her reaction was still quick. She immediately stood up and poured her a cup of tea and brought it to her mouth. However, Nan Yan couldn't help coughing as soon as she took a sip. A mouthful of tea plus half a cup of tea sprayed all over the quilt.
"Oh, what should I do?"
Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly put the teacup aside and patted her back to calm her down: "My Lady, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Nan Yan coughed several times again, her face flushed, but she looked down at her quilt, which was wet in large areas.
She said, "Xiaoyu, quickly take off the quilt cover, wash it and hang it out to dry."
Ran Xiaoyu said: "But, Little Button is coming."
"I'll still be here when he comes. Besides, the weather is bad today. If this quilt cover doesn't dry quickly, what will I cover myself with tonight?"
"Well, alright."
After all, Ran Xiaoyu was still worried about her health. It had been getting colder recently, and she had a cold ailment. If she didn't cover herself enough at night, she would definitely get sick. So she immediately took off the quilt, carried it, and walked out.
As soon as she left, Little Button came.
When she walked in and saw Nan Yan sitting on the bedside with no one around her, she was startled: "My Lady, what is this——"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "They are all busy."
Little Button said, "But the queen is sick now, she can't be alone."
"It's okay, it's not a fatal disease."
"Hey, what your Majesty said—"
Nan Yan smiled, watching him put the food box on the table, and then thoughtfully offered her a cup of hot tea. She smiled and said, "You've been running back and forth lately. It's hard work."
Little Button laughed and said, "How can your Majesty still say such things to this servant?"
Nan Yan took a sip of tea and said casually, "By the way, where has Ye Zheng been recently? Why haven't I seen him?"
