"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
A cacophony of noise filled my ears, a constant barrage of din.
"Why hasn't the imperial physician arrived yet? Quickly, go and fetch him..."
"If anything were to happen to His Majesty..."
Before Fu Sang even opened his eyes, he felt as if thousands of ducks were quacking incessantly all around him.
"Stop arguing!" she roared.
In reality, the only sound produced was the buzzing of a mosquito.
The buzzing of mosquitoes went unnoticed by anyone; the noise and weeping continued.
Just because she's not showing her strength doesn't mean she's a kitten.
Fu Sang impatiently opened his eyes, feeling a sharp pain in his shoulder, as if his entire shoulder blade had shattered.
"Hiss~" she couldn't help but let out a soft moan.
"Has the assassin been caught?"
"The manhunt is still ongoing... several have escaped..."
Unable to bear it any longer, Fu Sang kicked hard, sending the heavy bedding flying.
There was a moment of silence.
Then, a lot of people gathered around.
First, there was a boy dressed as a palace servant, his clothes were quite luxurious, but his eyes were filled with sadness.
The boy's face seemed to have been lightly made up with rouge, making him look somewhat like a eunuch in the imperial harem, and his speech and behavior were exceptionally 'gentle and helpless'.
"Your Majesty..." the boy sobbed, tears streaming down his face, "You've finally woken up."
A diverse group of people knelt respectfully on the ground around the carved bed.
Fu Sang glanced over.
The group trembled, as if they were frightened.
Despite the pain in his body, Fu Sang said, "Get out, all of you."
I'm about to be driven crazy by this group of people.
The group looked at each other and lowered their heads.
Her Majesty the Queen was critically wounded by an assassin and was on the verge of death when she suddenly woke up.
The imperial physician hasn't even come to examine her yet, so how dare anyone leave? If something were to happen to Her Majesty the Empress, who could bear the responsibility?
A woman dressed in military attire stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, are you feeling any better?"
A system notification sounded.
Jiang Aolei, Grand General of Shuiyun Kingdom, a loyal and devoted minister.
Fu Sang pursed his lips and said, "General, please stay. Everyone else, please leave."
At this moment—
The boy, kneeling by the bed and covered in rouge, cried, "Your Majesty, please allow me to stay and serve you."
Fu Sang glanced at him indifferently, his pale lips uttering a few words: "Get out."
The boy shuddered, lowered his head to hide the strange look in his eyes, and quickly got up to follow the others out.
The system has provided the current plot information in advance.
The original owner was the monarch of Shuiyun Kingdom, named Ji Jiuge, the noble Empress.
The Emperor of Shuiyun Kingdom personally visited Xuanji Kingdom to attend the birthday banquet of the Xuanji Empress, but was assassinated on his way back.
The states of Shuiyun and Xuanji are on friendly terms.
Before the original owner even left Xuanji Kingdom, he was assassinated and seriously injured, nearly dying.
It is evident that the mastermind behind the assassin is extremely vicious, aiming to kill two birds with one stone by causing the Shuiyun Kingdom and the Xuanji Kingdom to become enemies.
If two countries are at war, the people behind them can take advantage of the situation to do their own thing.
Only a few people knew about the Queen's royal carriage, and only her closest confidants knew it. How could the assassin be so clever as to find the Queen's royal carriage so quickly?
It was precisely because her personal attendant was a spy planted by that person.
The attendant who pretended to cry just now was named Yuzhu. In a matriarchal society, a handsome boy like him was extremely popular with women.
As for the original owner... let's leave that aside for now.
Anyway, that servant was a heartless scoundrel.
"General."
