Lu Wei's expression wasn't much better; she stared in disbelief, utterly astonished.
Why is Mu Chenshuang here? Why is she with Doctor Li?
My mind was filled with shock and confusion, but even more so with fear and unease.
It wasn't just the two of them.
When Feng Guche saw Mu Chenshuang walk out of the house, he was stunned. The others looked at each other, their eyes full of doubt and astonishment.
Mu Chenshuang walked out of Cining Palace with a calm expression. She saw Fu Junheng at a glance. After a brief eye contact, even though Fu Junheng was wearing a black veil and eye bandage, you could still feel that his gaze on Mu Chenshuang was different from the coldness he showed when looking at others. There was an indescribable tenderness in his eyes.
Mu Chenshuang subtly withdrew her gaze.
To outsiders, their glance seemed full of ambiguity.
"Your humble servant/commoner greets Your Majesty and Your Majesty the Empress."
Mu Chenshuang and Doctor Li bowed in unison, their voices pulling everyone back from their various suspicions and doubts.
Feng Guche snapped out of his daze, concealing the doubt in his eyes, and looked at Doctor Li, asking, "Divine Physician, there's no need for such formalities. May I ask how the Empress Dowager is doing now?"
His tone was respectful, after all, the Divine Physician Sect's spiritual healers held an extremely high status in the Xuanzhou Continent, and were sought after by various countries.
Doctor Li clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and said, "You flatter me. The Empress Dowager is now out of danger. She just needs to take good care of herself. I have written down the precautions and given them to the Empress Dowager's maid."
These words were spoken.
Everyone was utterly shocked.
The palace was already making preparations for the Empress Dowager's funeral, and even Ji Luoyan couldn't do anything about it.
Unexpectedly, Mu Yazhi contacted the spiritual healer of the Divine Doctor Sect, who pulled the Empress Dowager back from the brink of death. This time, they truly witnessed the spiritual healer's miraculous healing skills.
But why is Mu Chenshuang with the Spirit Doctor? Wasn't she said to be obstructing the Spirit Doctor from treating the Empress Dowager?
Lu Wei immediately realized something was wrong. When no one was looking, her gaze met that of Consort Ling. Consort Ling instantly understood and stepped forward, "Your Majesty, this is wonderful! Let's go in and see the Empress Dowager first!"
Now that Mu Chenshuang is here, and the situation is unclear, we can only try to get His Majesty away first, so that he will not investigate the matter of Mu Chenshuang obstructing the spiritual healer.
Once the Empress Dowager recovers, and Mu Chenshuang happens to be here, the lie will be exposed. Lu Wei and Mu Yazhi will not only not receive any reward, but will also be implicated in the crime of false accusation, and their reputations will suffer a great blow.
Therefore, the only option is to send His Majesty away and make further plans.
Feng Guche had this intention, and was about to go in to visit the Empress Dowager.
Doctor Li suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager expended a lot of energy treating you just now. She has now rested and will wake up in three hours."
“Divine Physician, His Majesty only wants to put his mind at ease and will not disturb the Empress Dowager’s rest. Is it not even allowed for him to go in and take a look?” Consort Ling continued.
Doctor Li paused for a few seconds before speaking, “Then Your Majesty, please go in and take a look. If there are too many people, the foul air will affect the treatment’s effectiveness. Right now, the Empress Dowager needs an extremely clean and quiet space to recuperate.”
Feng Guche entered the main hall, while the others waited outside.
But some people are extremely anxious and uneasy.
"Shuang'er, what are you doing here?" the Empress suddenly asked.
