Jiang Zhaoyuan took a deep breath and said, "I am just worried about your majesty..."

"Does Lord Jiang not trust Chu Tang, or does he not trust me?"

The princess' words choked Jiang Zhaoyuan to death.

The ministers following behind secretly exchanged glances and wisely chose to keep their mouths shut.

Who in the entire capital doesn't know that the eldest princess is Ye Chutang's backer?

Her life was saved by Ye Chutang, so she naturally trusted him. Otherwise, she would not have been so bold as to invite Ye Chutang to come at such a critical moment.

Even if Jiang Zhaoyuan was really dissatisfied with the eldest princess, how could he say it out loud in front of so many people?
After thinking about it, I had no choice but to bow my head.

"...I dare not."

The eldest princess snorted in her heart.

She has always disliked Jiang Zhaoyuan. Normally, she wouldn't care so much about it, but not today.

She brushed her sleeves and said calmly, "Chu Qiyuan will be back soon, and he will take over then. As for the rest... Mr. Jiang has been busy these days and is mentally exhausted, so you better stop worrying about it!"

Jiang Zhaoyuan's face turned slightly blue and his heart beat faster.

He couldn't help but look up and quickly glanced at the eldest princess.

Seeing that the other party's expression was indifferent and calm, as if it was just a casual remark, he felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

After Xiao Chengxuan got into trouble, he had been mediating secretly. Fortunately, it seemed that the eldest princess was not quite aware of it.

He didn't dare to argue anymore. Who knew what this sharp-tongued princess would say or do if the argument continued?
He was already tired enough because of Xiao Chengxuan's matter.

Jiang Zhaoyuan cupped his hands and said, "Then... I will take my leave."

……

After a busy period, noon passed in the blink of an eye.

The princess specially had meals prepared and invited Ye Chutang to dine with her.

Concubine Rong was exhausted, and after making sure that Emperor Mu Wu's health had stabilized, she returned to her own palace to rest.

Her body couldn't stand such torture day and night.

The princess dismissed her attendants and left only Zhuxin in the room to serve. Ye Chutang was not restrained either, and sat down with Xiaowu.

The eldest princess sighed and said, "You have worked hard today, use more."

Ye Chutang picked up some food for Xiaowu.

Xiaowu, who had been waiting obediently in the corner for a long time, suddenly brightened up his eyes, but he waited until the eldest princess and elder sister started eating before he happily started eating.

Her little cheeks were puffed up and her black eyes were round, just like a little hamster storing food.

The eldest princess couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when she saw this.

"Look, Xiaowu has been hungry for a long time. It's my fault too. I called you in a hurry today."

Ye Chutang shook his head: "The princess said this, which is to be distant with Chutang. What's wrong with you worrying about His Majesty?"

The eldest princess recalled the first time she saw Emperor Mu Wu lying on the bed, and she felt a pang of fear.

"I won't hide it from you. Apart from you, I don't trust anyone else. Especially those people in the Imperial Hospital."

She had no other choice but to go find Ye Chutang.

Ye Chutang lowered his eyes.

The Third Prince is like this, and the Princess is also like this...

It seems that the water in this Imperial Hospital is deeper than she thought before...

This thought was fleeting, and when he raised his eyes again, all the emotions in his eyes had been suppressed.

Ye Chutang whispered to comfort him: "At least your majesty is fine, you can rest assured."

The eldest princess stared at her with complicated eyes.

After a long while, she asked, "Your Majesty, are you really okay?"

Ye Chutang looked at her and said, "Your Majesty's fever has subsided, why is the princess asking this?"

The eldest princess had a tense look on her face.

She lowered her voice very low: "Tell me the truth - what is the condition of His Majesty's old illness?" (End of this chapter)
