Feng Guche replied, "Mother is right!"
"This matter is of utmost importance; Your Highness must investigate it thoroughly."
"Your subject will certainly find out who plotted against the Empress Dowager and deal with them severely."
The Empress Dowager nodded.
Feng Guche did not tell the Empress Dowager about the assassins appearing in the palace.
"However, Mother Empress, your ability to wake up is truly thanks to Princess Weiyang."
The Empress Dowager asked in confusion, "What did Shuang'er do?"
"It was Princess Weiyang who detoxified you, Mother, that allowed you to wake up. I didn't know that Princess Weiyang was skilled in medicine, and so skilled at it. Judging from this, she is probably even more skilled than Sect Leader Qi of the Divine Doctor Sect and Ji Luoyan. This really surprised me. The current Princess Weiyang is indeed not the Princess Weiyang I know."
The Empress Dowager was quite shocked by Feng Guche's words. "Shuang'er actually knows medicine? That's amazing!"
“You weren’t a miracle doctor when you saved Mother last time; it was Princess Weiyang who used her reputation as a miracle doctor.”
This shocked the Empress Dowager to the point of disbelief.
"I've never heard of Shuang'er being skilled in medicine, but she has indeed changed a lot since she divorced Xilan."
"Your Majesty, I will leave Princess Weiyang in the palace for the time being so that she can treat you. You can talk to her more."
The Empress Dowager frowned and nodded. "I understand."
“However, it seems that Junheng is determined to take Princess Weiyang away this time.” Feng Guche said, his tone becoming heavier. He couldn’t directly refuse or agree at the moment.
The Empress Dowager pondered, "Does my son really think that Junheng simply likes Shuang'er and wants to marry her?"
Feng Guche sighed, "Your subject is still unsure of Junheng's intentions. He actually used the mining rights of Xiling as an exchange. Such a heavy price. On a simple level, it seems that Junheng only wants Princess Weiyang."
Even after holding a high position for many years, experiencing the strife of the previous dynasty, the ups and downs of the court, and the treacherous nature of human nature, he still couldn't truly see through the situation of finding a nephew.
The Empress Dowager's eyes were deep as she asked, "How is Junheng's health now?"
When Fu Junheng stayed here to heal his injuries, he also paid a corresponding price.
"Judging from Junheng's current physical condition, he is much better than he was a few months ago. Judging from his relationship with Princess Weiyang, it seems that Princess Weiyang is the one treating Junheng."
"Shuang'er has really surprised me. It seems that Junheng will not be leaving the capital anytime soon."
Based on the initial time Fu Junheng spent here, he should be preparing to return to Shengjing by now.
"Right now, Mother, you should focus on recovering your health. We can't rush things regarding Princess Weiyang. Let Mo Ran gain some experience first."
The most important thing now is to find out the traitor within the palace.
The Empress Dowager sighed helplessly, "Indeed, we cannot rush it."
As the Empress Dowager finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something.
"Not many people know that I want to marry Shuang'er to Mo Ran. Some people use this as a reason for Shuang'er to plot against me. This is something that can be investigated in depth."
After all, someone who can become the Empress Dowager has seen all sorts of tricks and schemes in the palace over the decades.
Feng Guche's face darkened, and he did not explain anything further to the Empress Dowager.
"Your subject understands."
As Feng Guche walked out of the palace, he saw Fu Junheng standing guard outside.
Fu Junheng nodded and bowed in greeting, "Uncle."
Feng Guche looked at him, "Junheng, what is it?"
Fu Junheng spoke frankly, "I heard that the Empress Dowager needs Princess Weiyang to cure her poison, so I wish to stay in the palace. I ask for your permission, Uncle."
Feng Guche's decision not to pursue the matter between Fu Junheng and Mu Chenshuang for the time being was also due to their conversation yesterday, which led Feng Guche to temporarily compromise.
