In the Cold Palace, Gu Yuniang stared blankly at the ceiling, her face ashen, and her once lively eyes now devoid of expression, deeply sunken.
"Yes, Miss, I'm here!" Yunxin hurried to the bedside upon hearing the commotion, looking at her with concern.
"Do you know where my father... is imprisoned?" Gu Yuniang struggled to sit up slowly, leaning against the headboard, her long hair cascading down her shoulders.
"I don't know! Ever since I followed the Emperor, I haven't heard any news about Master or them!" Yunxin cautiously observed Gu Yuniang's expression, afraid of saying something wrong.
"What’s on the table?" Gu Yuniang asked without pressing further, frowning as she looked at the steaming bowl on the table.
"It’s your medicine! You fainted in the snow, and Azure Dragon carried you back. He even called for the Imperial Physician to treat you!" Yunxin hesitated to mention the cause of her illness but decided against it.
"Give it to me!" Gu Yuniang nodded, gathering her spirits as she obediently drank a large bowl of medicine that Yunxin handed over. The bitter concoction seemed to taint her insides, and a single tear fell into the bowl, gently rippling...
She couldn't afford to collapse; her father's fate was uncertain, and there was also Yun Shuyan! She absolutely could not be defeated like this! Now, she needed to think about how to see her father and Yun Shuyan as soon as possible.
She began to regret her recklessness; she shouldn't have slapped that person! After all, he was a king who looked down upon the world!
A commotion gradually approached the quiet Cold Palace, causing Gu Yuniang to frown. "Who is outside?"
Yunxin quickly went out to check the situation!
"Where is that wretched woman? Get her out here at once!" Consort Li exclaimed as she entered the main hall, unable to suppress her frown at the dilapidated scene before her. A large entourage followed closely behind her, making the spectacle even more imposing.
As Yunxin stepped out, she immediately saw Consort Li shouting and quickly bowed, saying, "This servant greets Your Highness!"
"Yunxin... I know that wretched woman is inside. Call her out!" Consort Li looked down at her with an air of superiority, completely disregarding the maid. What if the Emperor favored her? It didn't matter.
The fact that the Emperor had placed that woman in the Cold Palace indicated that he did not intend to make her public. No one knew of her existence; if she were to quietly deal with her, the Emperor would have nothing to say.
Yunxin stood frozen, unsure of what to do!
"That A-Yao's woman isn't anything special! No manners at all!" A soft voice floated in from within, and Gu Yuniang stood at the doorway, looking at the arrogant woman with a mocking expression.
Yunxin widened her eyes in surprise. What was the young lady doing? She knew that Consort Li relied on her father, the General of the Imperial Cavalry, and was favored by the Emperor. In the Harem, she had always been proud and domineering! Wasn't confronting her like this courting disaster?
"You..." Indeed, Consort Li's face turned pale with anger! This woman was too bold; not only did she dare to call out the Emperor's name directly, but she also treated herself with such disdain.
Most importantly, Gu Yuniang was so beautiful that even Consort Li, who prided herself on her looks, felt ashamed.
If she were to be left alone, she would surely become a threat!
"Someone! This wretched woman dares to be disrespectful to me. Seize her! Beat her to death!" Consort Li trembled with rage as she issued the command. Her sycophants stepped forward and grabbed Gu Yuniang, dragging her into the courtyard!
