Fu Xingyi’s eyes flashed with a hint of darkness.

An Ning watched the emotional turmoil in his eyes.

Looking at the person she had once longed for madly, just like this, so close at hand!

Yet she began to feel confused...

"Has His Majesty awakened?" Xie Ruotong’s voice suddenly sounded in the tent.

The voice was clearly filled with excitement.

An Ning lightly pressed her lips, adjusting her inner emotions.

At that moment, Fu Xingyi’s gaze shifted from An Ning to Xie Ruotong.

Xie Ruotong was slightly stunned.

Always feeling that His Majesty’s gaze was somewhat different from usual.

Usually, His Majesty gave off a strong sense of distance, and his gaze was always cold and indifferent. But now, she seemed to sense a smile in his eyes, an uncontrollable joy after surviving a disaster was it?!

But what does his gaze of scrutiny and a hint of gratitude towards her mean?!

Xie Ruotong didn’t think too much for a moment, quickly asking again, "Is His Majesty alright now?!"

An Ning seemed to press her lips tighter.

She didn’t know how to answer Ruotong’s questions.

She didn’t know if now he was alright, or if a big issue had arisen!

Suppressing her emotions, An Ning’s eyes reddened uncontrollably.

Xiao Jinxing... is no longer here?!

"I..." Fu Xingyi paused for a moment, then spoke, "I am alright now.

Xie Ruotong breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then would His Majesty like to eat something at this moment?"

"Alright."

"I’ll immediately instruct the kitchen to prepare." Xie Ruotong’s excitement was hard to conceal.

Thinking in her mind.

His Majesty and Empress, lovers have finally become a family!

But is it an illusion?!

She seemed to feel that An Ning was not that happy.

Clearly, yesterday His Majesty was injured, and An Ning’s feelings for His Majesty could be completely sensed, even disregarding her safety. Today His Majesty was truly safe, yet An Ning suddenly became calm, afraid His Majesty might worry about her?!

Xie Ruotong turned to leave, respectfully saying, "Your Majesty, now that His Majesty is alright, you have guarded His Majesty day and night. You should rest for a while too? Your body still has many wounds."

As soon as she spoke.

Xie Ruotong saw the worry in His Majesty’s eyes.

Still so unabashedly concerned for the Empress.

"Little Ning, you go rest first. When your body has healed, I’ll tell you everything." Fu Xingyi said gently.

Xie Ruotong frowned.

What is His Majesty hiding from the Empress?! 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

So An Ning is downcast because of this at the moment?

"Come Your Majesty, I’ll accompany you back to the tent." Xie Ruotong said respectfully.

Also afraid that if An Ning insists on going on, His Majesty’s body will recover, but hers will collapse.

"Mm." An Ning responded softly.

Perhaps, at this moment she indeed needs to calm down more.

Needs to think carefully about how to accept everything she’s experiencing now!

An Ning and Xie Ruotong left together.

An Ning didn’t return to her own tent but went to Xie Ruotong’s tent for a rest.

Her tent was too far away, and her injuries were severe, so it was not advisable to exert herself.

Xie Ruotong stayed by An Ning’s side, assisting her in changing clothes, letting her lie down.

Instructed someone to fetch hot water, cleaned, and wiped the stains and blood from her body.

"Ruotong." An Ning suddenly spoke.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Stabilize the situation with Cang Kingdom for now. We’ll make decisions when His Majesty and I have somewhat recovered." An Ning spoke frankly.

"Yes." Xie Ruotong received the order.

"Moreover, don’t actively inquire the His Majesty about Cang Kingdom’s matters, I’ll handle it."

Xie Ruotong was a bit surprised.

"Just follow my instructions."

"Alright." Xie Ruotong nodded, "Then I’ll first settle the Crown Prince of Cang Kingdom and General Yuan, who escorted you to the camp and haven’t left yet."

"Mm." An Ning responded.

Xie Ruotong suddenly thought of something, "Will Cang Kingdom take advantage of you and His Majesty’s severe sickness and suddenly deploy troops?!"

"No." An Ning was confident, "The Chief Commander and General are in Daxuan, Cang Kingdom won’t act recklessly. Even if they want to fight, they can’t win, aren’t you coming?!"

"I’ll make the defenses in case of any eventuality."

"Alright." An Ning nodded, then said, "Speaking of which, His Majesty and I were attacked at the Cang Kingdom military camp, which is quite strange. The issue is certainly not from our Daxuan, but Cang Kingdom. I suspect it was triggered by some internal conflict within Cang Kingdom. Have someone send a message to Cang Kingdom’s Think Tank Du Jianghong, and let him find out the truth by himself. Then, give me an explanation."
