Chen Siyuan knew there were four pieces of amber in total.
Amber bracelets, amber pendants, amber chains; regarding earrings, Qiao Yuchen is looking for earrings, but after searching for so long, there has been no news.
Just when Chen Siyuan was gradually forgetting about everything that had happened recently, she suddenly appeared in front of him.
She was stunned.
She was about to leave, but now that there was no one else around, and the person in front of her had fainted, she didn't know if he would wake up. She quickly knelt down again, using her body to block him, and quietly lifted a corner of the blanket to take a closer look.
She's certain it's amber, but whether it's the amber earrings she's been looking for is still unclear.
To confirm whether it was the one she had found, Chen Siyuan glanced around and then carefully looked at the emperor, who appeared to be asleep. She quietly approached and reached out to take the item from the emperor's hand so she could see it clearly.
She had initially thought that the unconscious person wouldn't have much strength, and she couldn't remove it as easily as she had expected. Later, she gradually applied more force, but the other person's hand seemed to be gripping too tightly, and she could only see a little bit of it.
She was unwilling to give up; she had finally seen something, so why should she give it up?
At this moment, because of what she had heard not long ago, Chen Siyuan thought that the emperor would not wake up and whether there was anyone else by his side. Since this was related to her mother, Chen Siyuan lowered her guard and was determined to see if this thing was the amber she was looking for.
When she finally saw, with all her might, that it really was amber earrings in the Emperor's hands, she was incredibly excited.
Make sure it matches your bracelet.
She was overjoyed.
The mother's things were finally found, and she was overjoyed. She was holding them in her hands and examining them carefully when she suddenly saw the emperor, who had woken up at some point. Her expression froze in shock, and her body remained in the same position.
"You like it too?" the Emperor asked in a hoarse voice.
This was the first time Chen Siyuan had heard the Emperor speak at such close range during her several meetings with him.
His voice was somewhat hoarse and unpleasant, seemingly because he had just woken up, but it did not diminish the emperor's imposing presence.
At this moment, General Qiao, Eunuch Huang, Imperial Physician Huang, and others outside also heard the commotion and were all extremely excited.
Just as Eunuch Huang and Imperial Physician Huang were about to rush in, General Qiao grabbed one of them with each hand and carried them away.
Eunuch Huang and Imperial Physician Huang were unwilling, and General Qiao was straightforward; the moment he released the two, he directly struck their pressure points.
This time it quieted down. General Qiao, who wasn't in a very good mood, dragged the two away.
If this action were seen by the patrolling guards, they would surely shoot General Qiao dead on the spot.
Unfortunately, the strange thing happened again.
A group of guards were passing by not far away; they saw them, yet they seemed not to.
Eunuch Huang stared at General Qiao, wishing he could see two holes in him.
Imperial Physician Huang could no longer remain calm.
What does General Qiao mean?
Didn't he know that his actions constituted a crime punishable by the extermination of his entire family?
Besides, Chen Siyuan is a first-rank imperial consort and does have some skills, but what he did today is courting death.
Based on this action alone, some people would believe it if they heard that General Qiao's achievements overshadowed the emperor's and that he intended to replace him.
Now even the patrolling guards have become General Qiao's men; this is treason!
General Qiao didn't seem to care much. He stood straight in place, quietly looking into the distance.
At that moment, he felt very conflicted.
Sure enough, he still couldn't let it go.
It's a miracle that someone who has been given ultimatums by the imperial physicians several times is still alive.
He knew many things, but he was unwilling to be a mouthpiece anymore. He hoped that some people would face certain things on their own.
Chen Siyuan saw that the Emperor had woken up and was still staring straight at her.
Chen Siyuan was so scared she almost lost her nerve.
Realizing what was happening too late, he knelt on the ground with a thud, unable to utter a sound.
It was simply because the amber earrings were still in her hands.
"Cough cough—" The emperor had just woken up and was not feeling well, so he coughed twice.
Chen Siyuan felt uneasy; she was waiting for the result.
Seeing that the emperor was coughing incessantly, she quickly went to the side, poured a glass of water, and brought it to him.
Unfortunately, the emperor, lying on his dragon bed, couldn't drink it.
Just then, I noticed a medicine bowl next to me, with a small spoon inside.
Without thinking much, he took it and fed it directly to the emperor.
After drinking half a cup, the emperor finally recovered, and Chen Siyuan knelt on the ground again.
"This woman deserves to die!" At this point, she could no longer utter the words of begging for her life.
If you've been caught red-handed, based on my experience, it's better to remain silent in such situations.
The emperor looked at the girl kneeling before him, but all he could see was a dark head, and he said nothing.
As with every previous instance, silence seems to be their only option.
Chen Siyuan knelt on the ground and didn't hear any movement for a long time. Then she saw the amber earrings in her hand.
She desperately wanted to ask, but she just couldn't bring herself to say it.
As time passed, everyone except the emperor could no longer bear it.
Chen Siyuan knelt on the ground, her legs and feet began to ache, and she dared not move.
Outside the door.
Both Eunuch Huang and Imperial Physician Huang knew that the Emperor had woken up and they should go in to serve him immediately, but General Qiao had acupunctured their pressure points and they couldn't move.
At this moment, General Qiao stood to the side, simply watching.
It seems that General Qiao was not a general, but a minister who observed the stars at night.
In this eerie atmosphere, the Emperor's voice finally rang out.
"General Qiao!"
Upon hearing this, General Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, released the pressure points of the two people beside him, and pushed open the door to go inside.
Seeing Chen Siyuan kneeling on the ground, he felt some sympathy, but there were some things he couldn't say and could only keep in his heart.
He stopped before the imperial bed, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty."
"Send her out."
"yes."
The general reached out to Chen Siyuan, but when he met her gaze, he shook his head slightly, signaling her not to speak.
Chen Siyuan also felt something was off, but with General Qiao around, she felt a little more at ease.
Soon, Chen Siyuan was taken back to the General's Mansion by General Qiao. General Qiao did not speak along the way.
Chen Siyuan held tightly to the amber earring she had 'snatched' from the emperor.
When Chen Siyuan returned to Beiyuan and saw Chunlan and Chunping safe and sound, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
I don't know what's going on, but everything today feels strange.
She couldn't explain it, but she knew that today's events might be related to the Emperor.
"Young Madam, are you alright?" Chunlan and Chunping were originally with Chen Siyuan, but they were blocked outside the Chen family's gate. When they woke up again, they were already in the North Garden.
They tried to leave, but were stopped.
They were worried about Chen Siyuan, but thankfully, after so much time, Chen Siyuan was unharmed.
Seeing that they were safe and sound, Chen Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief. After such a long and arduous journey, she hadn't slept a wink and was now exhausted.
Leaning against Chunlan, she said, "I'm tired, let's go to sleep." After saying this, she fell asleep.
