119 Chapter 119 They Are Still Alive (1/2)
In the Imperial Noble Concubine's courtyard, Xing Baihe is currently in her garden tending her plants. But unlike any other ladies, her plants don't have any flowers, just green healthy leaves. But if you practice martial arts and can regulate your internal energy, you can clearly feel the abundant energy that the plant gives off.
Xing Baihe is engrossed in her chores while the servants followed her with a few pail of water. Then she suddenly paused and subconsciously looked at the Dragon Palace's direction. The servants got confused so they followed her line of sight. But they found nothing in particular.
”What does the emperor usually do this time of the day?” Xing Baihe suddenly asked. The servants looked at each other. After five months of staying in the palace, the princess only visits the empress and never asked about the emperor. So they found it unusual that she suddenly has an interest about the emperor's itinerary.
But as a servant, they have no right to ask. ”Replying your highness, his majesty is usually at his imperial study during this time of the day.”
”Is that so? Then I can pay him a visit, right? I haven't visited his majesty for five months and paid respect. I'm afraid his majesty would think that our Zhixiang country isn't taking this marriage alliance seriously.” Xing Baihe said while putting her tools away. ”Help this princess change clothes.”
”Yes, your highness.” The servants bowed and responded. Because of this, they didn't notice the subtlenarrowing of her eyes.

Inside the Dragon palace, the servants, eunuchs and guards are in chaos because the emperor suddenly screamed then lost consciousness. All the imperial physicians are currently tending on him. The sixth prince also returned after he heard his brother's scream the moment he came out of the imperial study.
This is the scene that greeted Xing Baihe when she arrived at the Dragon Palace to pay respect. She stopped one of the servants to inquire what is happening. ”What's will all the chaos? Did something happen to his majesty?” Xing Baihe asked worriedly.
The servant stopped and bowed in respect when she realized that the one who stopped her is the new Imperial Noble Concubine. ”Replying your highness, the emperor suddenly lost consciousness. But the imperial physicians didn't see anything wrong with him. They only said that his internal energy turned chaotic and it exhausted his body. But he is stable now and only needs rest.”
Xing Baihe heaved a sigh of relief. ”Good thing the emperor is fine. The heavens always blessed the deserving ones. Can this concubine take a look at his majesty's condition?”
The servant didn't know what to reply. Although the princess is also his majesty's wife, who doesn't know that the emperor only favored the empress. If not for the emperor's instruction not to make the empress worry during her pregnancy, they would surely ask her to treat the emperor.
Xing Baihe's expression turned awkward because of the servant's silence. ”Forgive me for making things difficult for you. This concubine only wants to take a look. I don't mean any harm. I also didn't mean to exceed my boundaries.”
