Chapter 521: Chapter 521: Taking care of the Emperor’s health_1
Wei Jinyi abruptly stopped and turned to look at the hand holding his arm.
“Second brother, is there any way for me to enter the palace to take care of the Emperor’s health?” Wei Ruo asked abruptly.
“To take care of the Emperor’s health?”
“Yes, to nurse his health. I think the Emperor’s health has not been very good these past years. If Chu Lan exposes the truth from back in the day in the coming days, I’m afraid he will be shocked!” Wei Ruo revealed her concerns.
The Emperor was their shield. As long as the Emperor was in good health, their lives in King Rui Residence would be worry-free.
Wei Ruo knew that the Emperor’s health was currently severely compromised. It was impossible to expect a complete recovery and a long life, but she might be able to delay it for a few years, doing her best to prevent any accidents when he was facing the impending massive shock.
Wei Ruo wanted to take care of the Emperor’s health, but she needed an appropriate identity.
Xu Heyou had already died, so naturally, Wei Ruo could not enter the palace as Xu Heyou to treat the Emperor.
Moreover, wanting to take the Emperor’s pulse and prescribe medicine was not an easy matter. It would be impossible for a person with unclear identity and unknown origins to do so, even if this person were brought by King Rui, there would be no exceptions.
Forget about fabricating a new identity, even if she were to use one from before with Xu Heyou’s identity, it would be thoroughly investigated.
Wei Jinyi understood Wei Ruo’s concerns. After thinking for a moment, he said: “If you enter the palace to treat the Emperor, you will inevitably have to put up with some hardships.”
Wei Jinyi knew that Wei Ruo didn’t like the palace, with its complex rules and oppressive atmosphere which she resisted.
“Even if I’m troubled, it’s worth it if it allows us to live peaceful lives.” Wei Ruo said.
Wei Ruo was still clear about what was important and urgent – she would never avoid any hardships she should endure.
Wei Jinyi frowned, seeing Wei Ruo’s determined look, he understood her intentions.
After a pause, Wei Jinyi continued to ask Wei Ruo: “Are you willing to treat him as yourself?”
Wei Ruo hesitated for a while, then answered: “Yes.”
“Then you will accompany me into the palace tomorrow.” Wei Jinyi said.
“Alright.” Wei Ruo agreed.
After finishing speaking, Wei Jinyi didn’t move. Wei Ruo paused for a moment, then lowered her head and found that she was still holding Wei Jinyi’s hand.
Wei Ruo let go quickly, then awkwardly said goodbye to Wei Jinyi: “I… I’ll go first…”
As soon as Wei Ruo finished speaking, she turned around quickly, afraid that Wei Jinyi would call her back.
Wei Ruo, what’s wrong with you? You didn’t used to be so tactless!
Although she occasionally joked around to make her second brother blush, that was just for fun!
What’s going on now? She was acting like a lustful person, always touching others, just like a female pervert!

Late at night.
The Qi Family.
Qi Yansong’s study.
Qi Yansong sat in his Huanghuali Imperial Tutor Chair. In front of him, a line of people knelt down, each of them trembling with fear.
News of Chu Lan seeking King Rui outside the city during the day had reached Qi Yansong’s ears.
“Has Sheng Tong really been found by Chu Lan?” Qi Yansong’s voice was like a bell, his face like frost.
“We don’t know.”
