He lay beside her gently. His deep black eyes were staring at the sleeping face in the dark night. His fingers could not help but reach toward her cheek, but when it almost came to her, it retracted.
He was afraid that his actions would wake her up, so he held back in the end.
Looking at her face and smelling her unique fragrance on the tip of his nose, Xiao Yan fell into a deep sleep until the fourth watch and left quietly. Just like when he came, he went without a trace.
When Bei Yutang woke up naturally from her sleep, she could not help but glance at the place where Xiao Yan had been lying, and the corners of her lips raised slightly.
While Bei Yutang was staying comfortably and peacefully in Chenxiao Palace, a lot of things really happened outside. Among them, when Concubine Liang’s sedan chair passed by the lotus pond, a wild cat jumped out of nowhere and frightened the bearer. Concubine Liang fell directly from the sedan chair and fell into the water.
Emperor Nan was furious and sent people to investigate. The final result of the investigation was an accident.
This made Concubine Liang feel very angry, but the result was investigated by Emperor Nan, so she did not dare to question it even if she felt something was wrong. She could only put the blame on the bearers and kill those bearers.
“Your Majesty, it’s time to drink medicine.” Xia He walked into the inner hall carrying the medicine bowl.
Xia Yuwei’s health had not recovered since she fell into the lotus pond that day. The imperial doctor said that it was a combination of shock and typhoid fever, and that she would be fine in a few days, but even after a few days, she still wasn’t feeling better.
Xia Yuwei glanced at it and frowned, but she also knew that if she did not take good care of her body, she would not be able to conceive or give birth to an heir.
Xia Yuwei drank the medicine in one breath and said, “His Majesty, where is he now?”
“The Emperor is handling government affairs in Qianqing Palace.”
Xia Yuwei was a little disappointed. He hadn’t come to visit her for several days.
Xia He saw her master’s loss and could not help but comfort her: “The war on the border has been tense recently, so the Emperor is worried about state affairs. After a few days, when the war eases, the Emperor will definitely come to see Your Majesty.”
Xia Yuwei nodded to express her understanding.
She understood this rationally, but in her heart, she still wanted to have someone by her side. When people are sick, they are always the most vulnerable and want to find someone to rely on.
“Go down.” Xia Yuwei waved her hand.
At midnight, in the silent harem, a figure quietly entered Hanxuan Hall. The visitor immediately saw the figure standing in front of the bed.
He stepped forward and hugged her, and her body leaned into his warm embrace.
“Yuwei, I heard that you are sick?”
Nan Haowen looked at her slightly haggard face in the moonlight, his eyes full of pity.
“It’s okay. It’ll be fine in a few days.” Xia Yuwei said nonchalantly.
Nan Haowen was a little angry when he heard that she did not care about her body so much. He straightened her body and asked, “Did he do something again?”
They both know who this ‘he’ is.
Xia Yuwei pretended to be strong and tried her best to hide it, “No, don’t think blindly.”
When Nan Haowen heard this, he became even more determined.
“Yuwei, why bother?” Nan Haowen felt resentful in his heart. If it hadn’t been for the Emperor Brother’s imperial edict, Yuwei would have been her wife.
Even though the Emperor Brother had her, he did not treat her well. Instead, he allowed her to be angry with the women in the harem and made her hurt.
“I’m really fine. Shaotian is very good to me.” Xia Yuwei tried her best to defend. However, the more she defended, the more people felt that she was trying to cover up the truth.
