Obviously.
In the past two days, seeing Yun Shu made Zhan Tian Ye even more suspicious.
Suspicious…
Could it be that Yun Changfeng, due to excessive longing for his daughter, had found a fake Yun Shu from somewhere at great expense?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt…
It must be.
There was surprise in Zhan Tian Ye’s eyes, mixed with suspicion.
The more Yun Changfeng looked, the redder his eyes became, his mind already conjuring scenes of the hardships Yun Shu had endured over the years.
What father could bear that?
Zhan Tian Hong was initially very nervous, his entire back taut.
However, he felt no pain.
Occasionally, a cool fingertip touched his back, making him realize that it was Yun Shu giving him acupuncture.
Moreover, as time passed, he suddenly felt that the pain that had been flowing in his bones was becoming increasingly insignificant.
That feeling was just like that day.
It made him linger.
He was too attached to this feeling of almost no pain.
As Yun Shu was about to finish her acupuncture, sweat dripped from her forehead.
Just as it was about to fall, she raised her hand and wiped it away.
She hadn’t performed acupuncture for a while, so it was more physically demanding than before.
Meanwhile.
News of Yun Shu entering the palace again spread throughout the palace.
Some said that the young emperor was infatuated with Yun Shu.
Others said that Yun Shu knew the Night King had entered the palace, so she pestered General Yun to bring her into the palace, just to get close to the Night King.
Various rumors quickly reached Empress Geng Yufei.
Geng Yufei was drinking bird's nest soup for beauty.
Upon hearing the news from the palace servants, her expression immediately turned cold.
There had been too much news about Yun Shu these past two days. Coupled with Yun Shu having stolen the spotlight in the palace a few days ago, and her sister having fallen into Yun Shu’s hands twice, which in turn led to her being laughed at by other concubines in the palace.
She never expected that Yun Shu would actually enter the palace to see the Emperor today!
"Do you know why she entered the palace to see the Emperor?" Geng Yufei asked in a gloomy tone.
The palace maid shook her head. "Replying to Your Highness, the palace is abuzz with talk that Miss Yun Er entered the palace for the Night King. However, many also say that Miss Yun Er wants to enter the palace because… and they also say… the Emperor fancies Miss Yun Er."
"Presumptuous!"
"What kind of scandalous reputation does Miss Yun Er have? How could the Emperor fancy her?" Geng Yufei rebuked angrily.
The palace maid nodded fearfully. "Ah, Your Highness is right. Miss Yun Er's reputation is too notorious, the Emperor would never fancy her! Therefore, this must be a rumor! Everyone in the capital knows that Miss Yun Er has always been devoted to the Night King and clings to him tightly."
Hearing the palace maid's words, Geng Yufei nodded with satisfaction. "Well said."
"However, for her to enter the palace as she pleases, and to cling to the Night King, and to needlessly tarnish the Emperor's reputation, I cannot ignore this." Geng Yufei's expression changed, her voice extremely cold.
The palace maid, upon hearing this, thought that Miss Yun Er had thoroughly offended the Empress!
She would soon face disaster!
After Geng Yufei slowly finished the bird's nest soup in front of her, she stood up. "The imperial kitchen just finished a bowl of chicken soup and delivered it, is that correct?"
A palace maid at the door immediately responded, "Yes, Your Highness, it has been delivered."
"Bring it up? Accompany me to see the Emperor," Geng Yufei ordered.
Soon.
Geng Yufei led her attendants to Zhan Tian Hong's chambers.
She stood at the door, looking at the closed chamber, her red lips pursed. If Yun Shu truly wanted to enter the palace and aspire to become a phoenix, she would definitely make Yun Shu regret it!
And it was utterly impossible!
The eunuch at the door, upon seeing it was Geng Yufei, immediately reported.
Inside the chamber, Yun Shu had finished her acupuncture and put away the silver needles.
Zhan Tian Hong was getting dressed.
To prevent others from knowing, no one was left in the chamber to attend to Zhan Tian Hong.
Qiu Lu immediately stepped forward to assist.
Just then, a eunuch outside announced that the Empress requested an audience.
Zhan Tian Hong's eyes turned cold, and his pale lips pursed. "What does the Empress want?"
Geng Yufei, standing outside the door, heard Zhan Tian Hong's cold voice, and her face changed slightly. However, she managed to maintain her composure and said, "Your humble concubine specially simmered chicken soup for the Emperor."
She knew that Zhan Tian Hong would not easily accept things from others, so she wasn't afraid that Zhan Tian Hong would notice that the chicken soup tasted the same as that made in the imperial study.
Zhan Tian Hong heard this and showed no sign of gratitude, remaining indifferent. "The Empress is thoughtful. Leave the chicken soup, I have matters to attend to. I will see the Empress another day."
Yun Shu raised her eyebrows subtly. Why did she feel that the young emperor and the empress were in a marital discord?
Imperial family matters!
As Ruan Xi said, they were a tangled mess, so tangled that he admired it!
Few held genuine affection.
Thinking of this, she thought of Zhan Xiao Li, that poor child, lacking maternal love, and even fatherly love.
It felt as if her heart was being pulled, causing pain.
Geng Yufei did not expect that Zhan Tian Hong would give her no face in front of the Night King and Yun Shu, refusing to let her in!
Her earnest offer of chicken soup was rejected so casually!
The smile on her face faltered, and she turned slightly pale. "Very well, your humble concubine will not disturb His Majesty."
Saying this, she left directly.
With no movement from outside the door, Zhan Tian Hong immediately looked at Yun Shu. Because he felt so comfortable, his voice could not hide his excitement and anticipation. "Miss Yun Er, will my condition be completely cured?"
"I didn't explain in detail last time in the palace. His Majesty's condition is not simply an illness, but poison. The poison has entered the internal organs and spread throughout the body with the blood. While the body is easy to nourish, the poison has accumulated in the body over time and requires a period of time to be cleared," Yun Shu explained simply.
Zhan Tian Ye suddenly stared sharply at Yun Shu, his gaze like a knife.
The blade was cold.
Killing without a trace.
Yun Shu calmly lowered her eyes, too lazy to bother with Zhan Tian Ye.
The thought of Zhan Tian Ye almost abusing her son made her hands itch, wanting to kill him!
Yun Changfeng was also shocked.
The Emperor had been poisoned for many years!
This!
It was evident that someone had malicious intentions from a long time ago, poisoning the Emperor. It was unimaginable.
Suddenly, he felt that involving Shu'er in this was definitely not a good thing for her!
Zhan Tian Hong was startled for a moment, then laughed self-deprecatingly. "I guessed it long ago, but none of the imperial physicians thought I was poisoned."
He had suffered for many years. When others were running around as children, he was constantly taking medicine.
Taking medicine kept him alive.
Yun Shu looked at the young emperor, who was clearly only in his teens but had experienced various hardships since childhood, and could not help but sigh.
"The poison His Majesty has is indeed difficult to detect as poison. The pulse also indicates that His Majesty is ill."
Zhan Tian Hong looked at Yun Shu, fervor surging from the depths of his eyes. "I believe Miss Yun Er can surely save me."
Zhan Tian Ye said coldly, "How did Miss Yun Er realize that His Majesty was poisoned?"
Yun Shu cursed in her heart, "Nonsense!
She was a physician. If she couldn't tell, what was she doing healing for so long just now? Treating the air?"
