Gao Wuyong replied:
"My lord, Miss Qingyan says that Consort Nian has been having trouble sleeping lately and would like to ask you to come and take a look."
Yinzhen was really annoyed.
Lately, Nian Yunrong has been saying she's not feeling well all the time and has been sending people to invite her over for various reasons.
Out of consideration for her pregnancy and the hardships she was going through, I let You Ran help Li Jing Shu with the affairs of the manor. But she just couldn't resist making sarcastic remarks every time she went over.
"I'm not a royal physician, do you think she'll sleep better just because I go there?"
Gao Wuyong looked embarrassed; he was in a difficult position too.
Qingyan has come four times tonight. He turned her away the first three times by using the excuse that the Thirteenth Prince was here. This fourth time, he really couldn't turn her away again.
"Alright, alright, I didn't say anything to you. Who are you trying to impress with that long face?"
"This servant dares not."
"Go and fetch a royal physician. I'll wait at Consort's place first."
"Yes, sir."
As soon as Yinzhen entered Nian Yunrong's courtyard, he heard Nian Yunrong throwing a tantrum inside the house.
He pretended not to hear and coughed at the door. Nian Yunrong and Qingyan inside the room turned around in a panic and hurriedly bowed to Yinzhen.
"Get up. You're quite unwell now, so let's skip the formalities."
The panic on Nian Yunrong's face hadn't completely subsided. She first asked Qingyan to go and make tea, then tucked her stray hairs behind her ear and walked virtuously to Yinzhen's side:
"Your Highness, you've come so late without bringing anyone to serve you. Although it's only early autumn, the nights are still quite chilly. Please take care of yourself, Your Highness."
Yinzhen sat on the couch, glanced at Nian Yunrong, then smiled and said:
"Qingyan went to the study to find the master and said that you haven't been sleeping well these past few days, so the master asked Gao Wuyong to fetch the imperial physician."
Nian Yunrong feigned composure, gave a forced smile, and awkwardly took the tea leaves from Qingyan's hand:
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, for making you worry. I wanted to stop Qingyan, but she went to the study without permission while I was resting. I gave her a good scolding when I found out."
Yinzhen waved his hand:
"Why bother disciplining her? I think her loyalty to you is truly rare."
Nian Yunrong nodded awkwardly. At this moment, Gao Wuyong returned with the imperial physician.
