Seeing her small stature and busy work at the table, the Crown Prince said, "Eunuch Hai, please feed her."
He knew Zhihai and knew that Zhihai was the Empress Dowager's confidant and would never side with anyone else, nor was he burdened by any family. At this moment, he was by Zhao Shu's side, so he spoke up and said that he did not trust anyone else.
Zhao Shu nodded and said to Zhi Hai, who was hiding somewhere, "Thank you for your help, Elder Hai."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhihai appeared in the room like the wind, took the bowl from Zhao Shu's hand, and served the Crown Prince his meal.
The medicinal diet prepared by Ouyang Ping had a sleep-inducing effect, and the Crown Prince fell asleep after taking it.
After Zhao Shu emerged from the conflict, everyone remained, their gazes falling on Wei Tingsi. He was dressed in military uniform, and it was impossible to tell where he was injured, but his haggard face suggested that he was seriously wounded.
"Ah Jun, you haven't eaten all day, go and have some food first." Before Zhao Shu could speak, Huo Danlan pulled her along and called Sun Yun to leave first.
It seems that while she was not in the outer room, the group had already said everything they needed to say.

"The doctor said I'm much better, and the remaining poison should be cleared up in about two days," Chu Chun replied hastily.
Zhao Shu nodded and said to Huo Danlan, who had been watching over them all night, "Aunt, you should go back and rest. I'm sorry to have worried you."
"It's alright, Auntie will watch you until you fall asleep before leaving." Huo Danlan's eyes were filled with a gentle smile, full of heartache.
Zhao Shu lay down next to Sun Yun, and Huo Danlan gently and tenderly covered her with a blanket. Zhao Shu's nose tingled, and her eyes welled up with tears. She said, "Goodnight," and quickly closed her eyes.
