Chapter 1106: Leaving

As the wife of a prince, Nan Feng was not allowed to visit the sick unless it was a critical moment, so she had no choice but to wait in the Palace. This wait lasted for several days.

The Emperor had actually regained consciousness the day he fainted, but it was due to a fit of rage that he had passed out in the first place. Upon waking, he was extremely weak. The Imperial Physician did not permit him to leave the bed, and Xiaoye, feeling responsible for the disaster, stayed by the bed without leaving, attending to even the most menial tasks.

At first, the Emperor was very angry, but gradually he calmed down. When he questioned Xiaoye again about whether he still insisted on his earlier stance of not marrying Jia Lanxin, Xiaoye affirmed decisively that he would not marry her.

The Emperor decided not to press the issue any further. He was already ill, and worrying about this matter was equivalent to demeaning himself; focusing on recovery was the priority now.
