C138 (1/2)

When the carriage arrived, Dong Shu was preparing a meal for the two women.

Since his sister's family was leaving after lunch, the meal on the manor was even more sumptuous than before.

Dong Shu was in the dining room looking at the cold dishes on the table. She wondered if it was enough, before she could call for the servant to ask about the dishes today, Ling Xiang had unexpectedly led the panicking Mama Su to the dining room.

”What's wrong?” Once Dong Shu saw Ling Xiang, she quickly walked out. Unexpectedly, she had just taken two steps when she saw Mama Su behind her.

As soon as Dong Shu finished speaking, Mama Su stepped forward quickly and instantly held both of her hands tightly as she anxiously said: ”Third Madame, I have to trouble you to quickly enter the palace with me. Empress, she …”

It was not good for Mama Su to explain the Empress's situation clearly, but when Dong Shu heard that it was related to the Queen, she immediately nodded and said, ”Mama, I will enter the palace with you right now.”

After she finished speaking to Mama Su, Dong Shu turned to look at Ling Xiang and said, ”Ling Xiang, go and inform Old Madame about this. Remember to send a letter to Mama Yan and let her pack up a bit before she follows along.” After saying that, Dong Shu held onto Mama Su's hand and walked out.

Seeing Dong Shu leaving in such a hurry, Ling Xiang understood how serious the situation was, so she nodded and ran towards the Main Yard.

Dong Shu was anxiously pulled to the side by the Mama Su, and just as she walked to the second door, other than the palace horse carriage, there was also another carriage from Fifth Prince Palace.

Beside the carriage, Xu Nuanwen and Ye Jingxing had obviously received the news as well. Seeing Dong Shu and Mama Su's appearance, Xu Nuanwen immediately said. ”Sister-in-law, your brother-in-law and I will follow you into the palace.” After saying that, Xu Nuanwen nodded towards Mama Su and sat in his carriage.

Seeing that the Aunt Sister had accompanied him, Dong Shu was relieved.

Mama Su was not surprised that Xu Nuanwen and Fifth Prince were about to enter the palace. Since she was in such a hurry to come over, they could tell at a glance that something was up.

Waiting until they sat in the carriage, Mama Su finally informed Dong Shu of the reason why she was here today.

”This morning, the Empress felt her body loosen slightly, so she decided to take a walk in the imperial garden. Who knew that as soon as they arrived at the pond in the imperial garden, a young eunuch would rush out and knock the Empress into the pond? Although the Empress's body had recently recovered somewhat, the root of her illness was still present, and the water in the pool was cold in the early morning. Although the Empress had been promptly rescued after falling into the water, she still vomited blood. The imperial physician tried to treat her, but the empress was still unconscious. The imperial physician said that if the empress could wake up today, there was still hope. If she couldn't … ”

Although Mama Su did not finish her words, Dong Shu still understood the situation after pausing for a moment.

Her eyes widened in surprise, clearly in disbelief.

Dong Shu really did not expect that there would actually be someone who dared to harm Empress in the Imperial Palace.

Although Dong Shu was innocent, she was not stupid. Furthermore, Mama Yan had taught them well recently, and Xu Nuanwen and Old Madame Xu had often mentioned her.

Not only could she not ask, she understood why the Mama Su had come to find her.

”Mama Su, I don't know if I am lucky or not, nor do I know if I can wake her up if I go to the Empress's side later. ”But don't worry, I'll definitely cooperate with the imperial physician and try my best to wake up the Empress.”

Just as Dong Shu finished speaking, the Mama Su nodded towards her, thinking that the Empress had not doted on him for nothing. When she heard that the Empress had something to do, she followed him without even asking questions.

Thinking back to what Dong Shu had said just now, Mama Su was extremely nervous as well. Today, she had rushed out of the palace in a hurry to find Dong Shu, naturally because of this reason.

If Dong Shu wasn't able to wake the Empress up even after entering the palace, she would have to accompany the Empress.

But even so, the Mama Su did not forget to look at Dong Shu and said: ”Don't worry Third Madame, before I left the palace, I had discussed with the Mama Hu before you came here, and today you have entered the palace to treat the Empress.”

Hearing Mama Su's words, Dong Shu heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was also thinking about whether or not what she had done today was right.

When she heard Mama Su say Queen and saw her red-rimmed eyes, she did not wait to ask her mother-in-law and just left with Mama Su.

As she sat in the carriage, she realised that she had been too impulsive just now.

However, Dong Shu did not regret it. She really did like the empress, and she could also feel that the empress really liked him, that's why she wanted to see Empress as soon as possible.

At the same time, in the carriage right behind Mama Su and Dong Shu, Xu Nuanwen was also discussing this matter with Ye Jingxing.

Almost at the same time that Mama Su arrived at the manor, Ye Jingxing received a letter sent by a pigeon in the capital.

That was why they were able to borrow the Mama Su's power to find Dong Shu and return to the capital together.

”After entering the palace, I must accompany my sister-in-law. She has an upright character, and today's matters are not small. If she were to be set up, it would be terrible.”

Xu Nuanwen saw that Ye Jingxing had just finished saying these words, when Ye Jingxing nodded and said: ”Alright, you can rest in peace to accompany sister-in-law.” After saying this, Ye Jingxing paused for a moment, then continued: ”You have to take note of your own body as well. Under such a hot day, rushing into the palace, don't get tired.”

Xu Nuanwen was already used to Ye Jingxing's concern for him, so after hearing his words, she nodded at him.

Seeing his wife nod, Ye Jingxing thought for a moment, and in the end, said while looking at her: ”I'm afraid that today's matter is not simple. When we enter the palace later, you will accompany your sister-in-law and stay in the Phoenix Palace.”

Hearing Ye Jingxing's words, Xu Nuanwen lifted her gaze and swept across him, ”Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.” After saying that, Xu Nuanwen no longer spoke.

Seeing that Xu Nuanwen did not want to speak, Ye Jingxing did not continue speaking with her.
