At this moment, Feng Guche on the dragon bed did not turn around, clearly indicating that he had already fallen asleep.
Upon seeing Shen Biyun standing in the center of the room, Cang Xixue was taken aback at first, and then respectfully bowed to Shen Biyun.
"Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress. May Your Majesty enjoy boundless blessings and peace."
Cang Xixue performed the ceremony with utmost care and precision, leaving no room for criticism.
At first glance, no one could imagine the grudge between himself and Cang Xixue.
Anyone who didn't know better would think that Cang Xixue was extremely respectful and devoted to him.
Shen Biyun sneered inwardly, but showed nothing on her face.
"The Imperial Concubine is here. Please get up. There's no need to worry."
When addressing Cang Xixue, Shen Biyun used the phrase "The Imperial Concubine has arrived."
It was not a deliberate address to Cang Xixue as Imperial Noble Consort.
At this moment, Cang Xixue seemed oblivious to all of that, her worried gaze fixed on the dragon bed.
The emperor's eyes were closed, his breathing was weak, and he did not react even after hearing Cang Xixue's voice.
Cang Xixue stood up, leaned against the emperor's dragon bed, and began to weep softly.
"Your Majesty, what happened? He was perfectly fine just a few days ago, how did he suddenly become so seriously ill?"
Cang Xixue's voice wasn't loud, but those who heard it felt a pang of sadness.
Unfortunately, even though Cang Xixue cried her heart out, Feng Guche remained completely unresponsive.
Seeing Cang Xixue crying, Shen Biyun felt annoyed and stopped her.
"Imperial Noble Consort, what kind of decorum is this, with you crying and sobbing like this! If someone with ulterior motives sees this, it could cause trouble!"
After hearing this, Cang Xixue stopped crying, her eyes still blurry with tears.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was just worried about His Majesty's health."
Shen Biyun glanced at Feng Guche, and then her tone softened.
"I feel the same way as you, but the greater good must take precedence."
The Imperial Noble Consort looked surprised, lowered her head and thought for a while before speaking again.
"Her Majesty the Empress has not slept for several days. I wish to serve His Majesty for a few days to share her burdens."
Over the past few days, Shen Biyun has been feeling very upset. There has been no good news coming from either the imperial court or the harem, so much so that Shen Biyun has not slept for several days and nights.
To be honest, Shen Biyun was quite tired and was thinking about how to handle the current matters when Feng Guche suddenly spoke up.
"Xue'er, is that you?"
Xue'er?
Feng Guche's voice was hoarse, but the word "Xue'er" clearly reached Shen Biyun's ears.
The two of them were truly affectionate in front of him.
One cried and clung to the other, reluctant to part, while the other, having just woken up, called the other Xue'er.
I feel increasingly superfluous in this palace.
Shen Biyun's face turned ugly, and the complex emotions in her eyes flashed by.
Since the two of them are so affectionate, I feel compelled to keep watching.
"Your Majesty, you're finally awake! You scared me to death! Your Majesty, please don't do this again."
Cang Xixue's voice was choked with sobs as she held Feng Guche's hands tightly, tears streaming down her face onto the bed.
Feng Guche slowly reached out his hand, wanting to wipe away Cang Xixue's tears, but unfortunately, his arm only reached halfway before falling back down.
