Su Yan sat at the door for another half an hour.
When the medicine was served again, Yuwen Xu still hadn't come out.
Su Yan remained silent for a while.
He took the medicine from Wei Wan's hand, stood up, and walked towards the study.
The young eunuch was conflicted; he obeyed orders to stop her, but he didn't really want to offend Su Yan.
All they could do was plead.
"Miss, please don't make things difficult for me. How about I take this medicine in?"
Su Yan looked at him,
“He didn’t drink the medicine from yesterday or the day before, but it was brought out again as is. The medicine on his wound hasn’t been changed for two days, and this morning the wound has become infected and worsened.”
The little eunuch immediately fell silent.
They were caught in a dilemma.
He was the one who brought in the medicine the other day, but the prince wouldn't drink it. What could a servant like him do?
Su Yan looked at him and said seriously.
"Let me in. If anything happens, you won't be punished."
The young eunuch stammered for a long time, but seeing how serious Su Yan was, and thinking of how his own prince's face was getting paler and paler every day, and how he looked more and more unsightly.
The young eunuch silently stepped aside.
Wei Wan couldn't help but speak up.
"girl···"
Su Yan had already walked forward when she left behind a sentence.
"Wait outside, I'll be out soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed open the door and entered.
A screen depicting mountains, rivers, and sunset stretches across the landscape.
It obscured the view from the study.
The sound of civil officials discussing things could be heard coming from inside.
"Your Highness, the new emperor's ascension to the throne has been set for the tenth day of next month."
A sound was inserted from the side.
"It's already the end of the month, and the enthronement ceremony is quite complicated; I'm afraid it won't be easy to complete."
"Alas, we can only keep things simple. After all, the late emperor abdicated so suddenly. A country cannot be without a ruler for a day. I'm sure the new emperor will understand the proper etiquette."
"That's true..."
Four civil officials sat on either side discussing the matter.
As they were talking, they noticed that the prince's attention seemed to be drawn to the screen.
His gaze kept drifting over the screen, intentionally or unintentionally.
Even though they had been talking for so long, the prince was so distracted when the master of ceremonies asked for his opinion that he didn't hear him.
The four people exchanged glances and looked towards the screen.
At this moment, a seasoned general sitting to Yuwen Xu's right let out a heavy snort.
"Calamity"
He spoke frankly, his brow furrowed with displeasure.
The four civil officials were still confused as to why the general had suddenly said such a thing.
From behind the screen, a woman dressed in white emerged, carrying a tray.
Her face was delicate and fair, and her gaze was calm. She looked up and first scanned the people present.
Then, he glanced at Yuwen Xu, who was sitting behind his desk, not saying a word for a long time.
He hasn't spoken yet.
One of the civil officials had already frowned.
"Where did this ignorant person come from? Is this a place you can just barge into?"
Civil officials had the right to offer advice in the imperial court.
To put it nicely, he was upright and upholding the law; to put it bluntly, he was old-fashioned.
They are here discussing important matters of the court.
An unidentified woman barged in without announcing herself, and it's unknown how long she had been hiding behind the screen.
This is extremely disrespectful.
Don't say that this woman's identity is unknown.
Even if she were the prince's future princess, such behavior would still result in being beaten and confined.
Following the customs of the Great Liang Kingdom that she remembered, Su Yan first bowed.
"Here to deliver the herbal medicine."
He then took a step, completely ignoring everyone else.
The diameter is directed towards Yuwen Xu.
He placed the herbal medicine on the table.
