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.

Both carriages had a sign on them, and they smoothly walked to the entrance of the palace. The carriage in Fifth Prince's mansion was stopped.

Xu Nuanwen alighted from the carriage and hastily got onto the carriage in front, while Ye Jingxing could only walk towards Phoenix Palace.

The carriage only stopped when it reached the entrance of the Phoenix Palace Palace. Mama Su led Dong Shu and the others down the carriage, and they walked all the way towards the rear hall of the Phoenix Palace.

As soon as he arrived, he saw the Mama Hu and the Emperor Ruikang guarding the empress's side.

"Madame Dong, come over quickly." Seeing Dong Shu, the Emperor Ruikang immediately waved at her.

When Dong Shu heard Emperor Ruikang's voice, she immediately stopped in her tracks just as she was about to greet him. When she felt the Aunt Sister beside her pinch her palm, she summoned her courage and answered: "Yes."

Saying that, Dong Shu quickly walked to the side of Empress's bed and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, why not let Third Madame Xu speak with the Empress?" At this time, only Mama Hu would dare to say such words to him.

When he heard Mama Hu's words, the Emperor Ruikang did not get angry. Instead, he nodded and slowly walked to the side, giving the closest seat to the Queen.

Seeing that Emperor Ruikang had moved away, Dong Shu only took two steps forward before hearing the Emperor Ruikang behind him ask: "Fifth brother, why did you enter the palace together?"

"Reporting to Royal Father, today's daughter-in-law had originally planned to return to the capital after lunch. Before lunch, seeing that the Mama Su was rushing to find his sister-in-law, the daughter-in-law was worried that her sister-in-law was young and immature, and thus accompanied her. "

Xu Nuanwen's words sounded like the truth. Everyone knew what Dong Shu's personality was.

Therefore, when Xu Nuanwen said this, the Emperor Ruikang nodded and did not speak anymore.

After Dong Shu finished listening to Aunt Sister, she went over to the empress's side and immediately held onto her hand.

"Empress, Shu'er has come to visit you." Didn't we previously say that once Shu'er leaves the palace for summer, you'll leave the palace for summer as well? Shu'er has been waiting for you in the manor for a long time, and yet you have not come. " After saying that, Dong Shu saw the empress laying on the bed with a pale face, and suddenly felt a sour feeling in her eyes. With a teary voice, she continued, "Since you have been out of the palace the entire time, Shu'er can only come to find you. Please wake up and take a look at Shu'er, Shu'er will tell you some interesting things about the past few days, okay?"

Dong Shu thought about how the Empress had been treating him well these past few days, and the more she thought about it, the more miserable she felt the Empress was acting.

She had stayed in the royal family for dozens of years. She had raised her eldest son and had a grandson, but the Crown Prince had done something like that.

Now that he was a bit stronger, who would have thought that he would encounter such a thing again?

Her heart ached for the empress. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't notice that as she held onto the empress's hand, the green and white color on her face slowly faded away.

The Mama Hu that had been protecting the Queen noticed, but she did not dare reveal it, afraid that she would disturb Dong Shu the moment she opened her mouth.

Seeing that the Queen did not wake up, Dong Shu told her about what had happened in the manor these past few days.

As she listened to Dong Shu's narration, the green and white color of the empress's face finally disappeared, and even her breathing was different from before.

Mama Hu looked at him excitedly, and then she immediately summoned the palace maid to bring him a pot of warm water.

After Senior Servant Su poured a cup of warm water, she moved closer to Dong Shu and whispered," Third Madam, please take a sip of water to rest. " When she finished speaking, Su mama saw Dong Shu look at her with a puzzled expression. She then continued, "Your servant seems to have looked much better than before. Please take a rest and have the imperial physician treat the Empress once more.

As soon as Mama Su finished speaking, before Dong Shu could leave, Emperor Ruikang who heard her words already excitedly went forward to size up the Empress's expression.

Seeing that the Empress's complexion was much better than before, he turned to look at Dong Shu and said, "Madame Dong, you are a good person."

Hearing Emperor Ruikang's words, Dong Shu immediately knelt and retreated two steps. After feeling that the distance was appropriate, Dong Shu held the teacup in one hand and propped herself up with the other.

However, because she had been kneeling for so long, her legs became unsteady. Just as she thought that she was about to fall, Xu Nuanwen had already walked forward with large strides and steadily supported her.

Seeing Xu Nuanwen's actions, the Emperor Ruikang immediately said to the palace maid at the side: "Go get two chairs." After saying that, the Emperor Ruikang turned his gaze to the Empress Hu on the bed.

The imperial physician had been waiting in the side chamber, so he would be here soon.

After the few imperial physicians carefully checked the Queen's pulse, they all turned their heads in shock and surreptitiously looked at Dong Shu who was seated at the side.

This was Dong Shu's first time being sized up by so many imperial doctors. Fortunately, Xu Nuanwen was sitting right beside her, accompanying her, otherwise she would definitely be scared.

The Emperor Ruikang had also noticed the gazes of the imperial physicians looking at Dong Shu. Thinking of what the Master Xuan Ling had said before, he hurriedly berated, "Hurry up and treat the empress. If anything happens to the empress, we will bury you all with us!"

As soon as Emperor Ruikang finished speaking, a few imperial physicians hurriedly suppressed their expressions and kneeled on the ground to beg for forgiveness. After that, as Emperor Ruikang berated them again, they hurriedly began to check the Queen's pulse.

Only after the imperial physicians had examined the empress's pulse did they withdraw and gather together for a discussion.

The results were quickly decided, and the head of the hospital personally reported it to the Emperor Ruikang.
