Jun Zechen sat upright on the imperial carriage, his expression revealing a hint of anxiety.
Today has really wasted too much time.
At this moment, suddenly, the voice of a palace maid was heard.
She suddenly rushed to the front of the imperial carriage, her voice clearly filled with tears, "Your servant pays respects to His Majesty."
A gloomy look instantly covered Jun Zechen's face before he could say anything.
Fuquan, standing by, had already shouted, "How dare you, a mere palace servant, stop the emperor's carriage? Are you trying to save your life?"
"Eunuch Fuquan, I am Meixiang, the personal maid of the imperial concubine." The maid said hurriedly.
After hearing this, Jun Zechen frowned tightly.
In a low voice, he asked, "What happened to the imperial concubine? Why are you not waiting by her side? Why are you here looking for me?"
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine drank the medicine and fell asleep today. She has been in a nightmare ever since. When she woke up, she didn't see Your Majesty and was extremely panicked. She hasn't even had dinner yet."
Meixiang's voice was full of pleading.
"Your Highness has been poisoned and hasn't fully recovered yet. How can she skip dinner? But Your Majesty is not here, and no matter how we persuade her, she refuses to eat. I beg Your Majesty to go to Yikun Palace to see her."
As she spoke, Meixiang's face was full of anxiety and her body was trembling slightly.
Jun Zechen's fingers slowly turned the ring on his hand and he was silent for a long time.
Then he gave the order: "Let's go to Yikun Palace."
Let’s go see Ling Yue first. Her body can’t stand this kind of torture. After accompanying her to finish dinner, we can go to Zhaochun Palace.
Yikun Palace.
Jun Zechen walked in and saw Ling Yue leaning against the headboard with a depressed look on his face, as if shrouded in a layer of haze.
He stepped closer and asked softly, "Why don't you have dinner? You haven't recovered yet, so don't act like a spoiled brat."
When Ling Yue saw him, a light flashed in her eyes, and then she knelt up from the bed, stretched out her arms and hugged him tightly.
"Your Majesty, I'm scared. I've just been having a nightmare. Someone was poisoning me in the dream. Woo woo..."
Ling Yue's voice was filled with fear and grievance, and her body was trembling slightly.
"No, don't be afraid. I will not let anyone who hurts you go. I will definitely punish those who poisoned you."
Jun Zechen patted her back gently to comfort her, his eyes stern.
"You've been lying down for so long today and haven't eaten anything. Get up and have dinner. I'll stay with you."
Hearing this, Ling Yue raised her head and looked at him, "Your Majesty, have you had your meal yet?"
Jun Zechen shook his head. He was originally planning to go to Zhaochun Palace for dinner.
When Ling Yue heard this, a smile immediately broke out on her face.
"Then may Your Majesty and I use it together?"
There was a hint of complexity in Jun Zechen's eyes, but seeing Ling Yue's expectant look, he finally nodded.
The palace servants moved quickly and soon placed the meals on the table.
Jun Zechen didn't eat much, just picked up a piece of food with chopsticks from time to time.
During this time, he asked casually: "Yuer, do you know what day it is today?"
Ling Yue, who was eating the meal in the bowl, lowered his head, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
Then he looked up with a puzzled look on his face. "Huh? Today is the third day of March. Is it a special day?"
Then Ling Yue turned her head and looked at Meixiang with a puzzled look, and Meixiang shook her head slightly at her.
"It's okay, Yue'er, have your meal." Jun Zechen said.
After finishing the meal, Jun Zechen wanted to get up and leave several times, but Ling Yue cleverly changed the subject every time.
"Your Majesty, could you please stay with me in Yiku Palace today? I can't sleep without Your Majesty." Ling Yue pleaded aggrievedly.
Jun Zechen didn't agree to her immediately, but said slowly: "Go to sleep, I will accompany you and wait for you to fall asleep."
Jun Zechen sat down beside the bed. Ling Yue lay on the bed and looked up at him. "Your Majesty, aren't you going to sleep?"
"I have something to do later, Yue'er, go to sleep first. I'll wait for you to fall asleep." Jun Zechen said softly.
Ling Yue's lips curled up into a forced smile, "Your Majesty, please don't hurt yourself no matter how busy you are."
One of her hands under the quilt was clenched into a fist, her nails seemed to be digging into the flesh, and her tightly closed eyes were trembling slightly.
Does he like Concubine Chun Shu so much?
Does he have to go to Zhaochun Palace tonight?
Time passed by bit by bit, and Jun Zechen's brows became more and more furrowed.
It’s almost midnight. Is Yaoyao asleep by now?
Jun Zechen looked down at Ling Yue and saw that she looked peaceful and tranquil. Then he carefully released his hand that Ling Yue was holding tightly.
Then he strode out of the Yiku Palace.
As soon as he came out, he couldn't wait to get on the imperial sedan chair and immediately ordered: "Quick, go to Zhaochun Palace."
When Jun Zechen stepped into Zhaochun Palace, he saw Miaoyue and Miaoxue, the personal maids who usually served the little woman, talking in low voices outside the palace gate.
"Miaoxue, after the master returned today, he didn't change his clothes or have dinner, and the palace door has been closed all afternoon. How about we go in and persuade the master?"
Miao Yue frowned and asked with a worried look on her face.
"Sister Miaoyun and Sister Miaoxia are in there. The master just wants to be alone now." Miaoxue responded softly, her eyes full of anxiety.
"When Eunuch Fuquan informed the master, he clearly said that His Majesty would come to accompany the master later, but it's already midnight, and His Majesty is still in Yikun Palace. I'm afraid he won't come."
There was a hint of loss in Miaoyue's voice.
