"This is-"
"Miss Gu, this is what the concubine concubine told you, please hand it over to your lord Gu."
"..."
Although he had already realized it in his heart, this letter and Ran Xiaoyu's serious expression seemed to remind Gu Qiqing that something happened to Si Muzhen in the palace.
She took it with her hands carefully.
Then he asked softly: "Sister Xiaoyu... the imperial concubine, what's wrong with her?"
Ran Xiaoyu glanced at her, and said calmly: "Everything is fine, Miss Gu, don't worry."
"oh… "
"It's just that this letter must be handed over to your father."
"I know, my father will return to Beijing today, I'm afraid he has already returned home."
"That's good. The people in the palace will escort the lady's car. If it's not necessary on the way, don't stop halfway, and don't talk to anyone."
The "person" she was talking about naturally meant Si Muzhen who was in another car.
Gu Qiqing nodded seriously.
Ran Xiaoyu took a step back, and said to the driver, "Let's go."
Soon, the two carriages were escorted by several guards, and left the imperial city unsteadily. Ran Xiaoyu stood on the steps, watched their backs disappear, and then turned and walked back.
By the time she returned to Yikun Palace, it was already dark.
The house was brightly lit.
Ran Xiaoyu originally thought that if something like this happened today, Nan Yan might not be able to eat, or would be so angry that she would not be able to sleep, but she didn't expect that as soon as she left the room, she saw the people from the imperial dining room coming.
Dishes are being placed on the table.
Nanyan actually asked someone to pass on the dinner.
Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly stepped forward to serve her, and saw a few small dishes on the table, which were her favorites, that's all, what's more, there was a large bowl of steaming chicken soup, sealed with butter, not even steaming. It's hot, but it's fragrant.
Ran Xiaoyu filled half a bowl of rice and sent it to Nanyan.
Softly said: "Your Majesty drinks chicken soup at night, aren't you afraid to stop eating?"
Nan Yan held the bowl, but sighed.
"I'm not going to sleep right away."
"That's right, that bed—servant was immediately dismantled and washed."
Speaking of this, Nan Yan turned her head and glanced at her bed, the quilt that Si Muzhen was wrapped in just now was still on it.
Seeming to be very upset, said: "Throw that quilt out first!"
"yes."
Ran Xiaoyu hurried over, hugged the quilt and threw it to the little maids outside, letting them burn it.
When she came back, she found that Nan Yan had already finished the half bowl of rice. After thinking about it, she handed the empty bowl to her: "Put some more."
Ran Xiaoyu was startled.
Although, Nanyan used to be very gluttonous and had a good appetite, but these days due to injuries, her appetite has been greatly reduced, especially at night, she often eats two mouthfuls of food and then puts her chopsticks aside.
Aunt Tongyun and the others were always coaxing and persuading her, hoping that she would not be able to eat more.
Today, I ate so much!
So he said softly: "It's so late, the empress wants to eat so much?"
"..."
"Be careful not to sleep at night."
Nan Yan's brows were twisted into a few hanging needle lines, as if she was worried about one thing, she sighed, and said, "You can't eat enough."
"..."
"Later, there is still work to do."
"ah?"
Ran Xiaoyu looked at her in astonishment.
Seeing that she didn't say much, she didn't want to ask any more questions, so she could only fill another half bowl of rice, watched Nanyan soak the chicken soup, and quickly ate it.
There will be more for a while.
