This incident also made Chu Mu quite annoyed.
He actually had the idea of going straight to stop Xiaoqi.
However, many people knew that the young master of the Xiao family was good at martial arts. He was also very handsome, so there were always some ignorant people who wanted to get close to him, but they were all severely beaten up by Xiao Qi.
The reputation of Xiaoqi being ill-tempered and unsuitable for a noble family spread.
Recently, he even gave Chu Mu, who came to his door to cause trouble, a beating.
This reputation is getting stronger and stronger.
The Prime Minister's family was also quite troubled. After all, this was the Empress's favorite child, and he was a prince. How could you just beat him without saying anything, and even hit him in the face?
Isn't this causing trouble?
But no matter how much trouble they cause, they are still our own children! We still have to protect them!
So he had to let Xiaoqi stay at home and not run around, while he himself played tricks on Chu Mu in the court.
That is to say, during this turbulent time, no one cared whether the original owner, the unfavored Crown Princess, was sick.
Even the empress only sent two imperial doctors and never asked about the matter again.
After Chu Ci sorted out the information in his mind, he opened his eyes again, coughed softly twice, and propped himself up.
The female official who had been serving Chu Ci since she was a child also hurried forward, helped Chu Ci up, put a soft pillow behind her, and signaled the female official behind her to bring some water.
While whispering, "Your Highness, how do you feel now?"
Chu Ci blinked her eyes. She had a round face and looked well behaved without a trace of dominance. Her eyes were also round and her face was pale, which made people feel distressed just by looking at her.
This look does not have the majestic and domineering aura of the inherited empress at all. No wonder after the fall of the Zhao family, the empress did not care much about the heir she had previously chosen.
His qualifications are mediocre, and he doesn't look like someone who can inherit the throne.
Even the Zhao family has taken the initiative to give up Chu Ci, and now he is just an heir in name only. In recent years, the princes have grown up, the empress has also grown old, and the situation of fighting for the throne has become more and more serious. It has not yet caused any trouble to others, but it has become like this. What should be done in the future?
"Your Highness is fine." Chu Ci took a sip of water, cleared his throat, and spoke in a soft voice.
The pale face and weak voice instantly made the eyes of this already older female official red.
Chu Ci paused slightly while holding the teacup. She looked at the female official in front of her who was almost on the verge of tears. She blinked, a little dazed, and spoke in the same tone that the original owner had used to speak to the female official in private. She said softly, "Aunt Feng, I'm really fine."
Don’t, don’t cry…why are you still crying?
This was a good sound. I hadn't cried at first, but when I heard Chu Ci's voice, tears rolled down my cheeks instantly.
He handed the teacup in his hand to the female official next to him who also had red eyes. Feng You, who had been with the original owner almost since he was a child and had already regarded Chu Ci as his own child, came over and held Chu Ci in his arms.
"Your Highness, if anything happens to you, how can I have the face to see Her Majesty the Queen?"
Most of the people guarding this room were the elderly people left behind by Chu Ci's father. When those on Chu Ci's side heard this, they all lowered their heads and their eyes turned red.
The atmosphere in the room was heavy and quiet, with no one talking.
Only Chu Ci blinked and patted Feng You on the back: Be reasonable, don't think of me as so weak, really.
