After Xuanyuan Zhiling heard Eunuch Li's words, he frowned slightly. Then, a complicated look appeared on his face as he said, ”Eunuch Li, you don't need to make a decision so early, why don't I go and have a talk with Qin Feng first? But Eunuch Li still needs to tell me, what message did father give us?”
”The Emperor has said that if the wangfei is willing to enter the palace to treat his Majesty's illness, the Emperor is willing to cancel the marriage between you and Princess Soaring Wind Kingdom.” When he said till here, Eunuch Li's face already revealed a faint anxious expression.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Zhiling's eyes quickly flashed with a burst of light. Although he was extremely happy in his heart, on the surface, he did not reveal it at all. Instead, he calmly looked at Eunuch Li.
”Since Eunuch Li has already said so, then I can only go in and find Qin Feng.” Xuanyuan Zhiling chuckled, he then walked towards Qin Feng's room, and before he left, he instructed the servants: Come, give Eunuch Li some tea, you really do not have eyes, can't you see that Eunuch Li is extremely tired?
Eunuch Li was arranged by the servants of the Duke's Palace to sit in the main hall, while Xuanyuan Zhiling walked towards Qin Feng's room.
Arriving at Qin Feng's door, Xuanyuan Zhiling's expression revealed a hint of happiness. He did not expect that the marriage alliance would be resolved like this.
”Qin Feng, I never thought that you would actually have a way. As you expected, the father made a condition, and as long as you enter the palace to treat his illness, he will cancel the marriage.” Xuanyuan Zhiling reported the good news to him from the entrance even before he entered the door.
”Hmph, as I expected.” Qin Feng slowly crawled up from the bed. Just now, when she heard that the Eunuch Li had come again, she originally wanted to continue lying on the bed to pretend to be sick. However, she did not expect that the Eunuch Li would bring such good news.
When Xuanyuan Zhiling walked in, he was already sitting in front of the table drinking tea.
”At that time, how did you know that father would definitely give such a condition?” Xuanyuan Zhiling frowned slightly as he asked with a trace of surprise on his face.
When Qin Feng heard this, she faintly smiled and said, ”Because this is the only condition that the Emperor has for exchanging with me, no?”
”So you already knew that the father would use this to exchange with you.” Xuanyuan Zhiling said faintly. After Qin Feng heard this, there was a pleased look on her face, but it only lasted for an instant.
”Can we go now? If the condition of the father is really delayed, it will be hard for us to escape our responsibility. ” When Xuanyuan Zhiling said this, his expression was a little solemn, and the gaze he used to look at Qin Feng with was also a little anxious.
”Alright, let's go immediately.” As she said that, Qin Feng was already holding onto the medicine box, preparing to follow Xuanyuan Zhiling into the palace. When the two of them reached the main hall, they saw Eunuch Li pacing back and forth anxiously.
When Eunuch Li saw the expressions of Xuanyuan Zhiling and Qin Feng, he was slightly overjoyed, and the anxious expression on his face also eased up slightly.
”Esteemed wangfei, this old servant has been waiting for you for too long. If you don't come out now, this old servant will die of anxiety. I can't even keep my head.” When Eunuch Li said this, his eyes actually lit up with tears, the murky tears were so real.
Qin Feng only smiled faintly, and her expression carried a trace of coldness: ”Eunuch Li is a popular person by the empress's side, why would he so easily lose his head?” Qin Feng's tone was a little relaxed, but what Qin Feng said actually caused Eunuch Li to have an additional trace of astonishment in her eyes.
”Right now, the emperor's illness has already reached a state of anxiety. Those imperial physicians who saw the emperor before were all killed by the emperor because they couldn't come up with effective medicine. If this old servant makes any more mistakes, this old servant's brain probably won't be able to hold on either.” As Eunuch Li spoke, he looked at Qin Feng and Xuanyuan Zhiling with tears streaming down his face.
”Eunuch Li, don't worry. If the emperor blames you, I will definitely speak out for you.” Qin Feng said with a determined look on his face. When Eunuch Li heard Qin Feng's words, she became more relaxed and wiped away the tears on his face, calming herself down.
”We should hurry into the palace right now, otherwise we really won't be able to save the old servant's life if we delay the emperor's illness.” When Eunuch Li said till here, his expression carried traces of panic, and he urged somewhat anxiously.
Under the lead of the Eunuch Li, Qin Feng and Qin Feng arrived in front of the emperor's bedchamber. The emperor's condition was getting worse and worse, to the point that he had not attended the morning assembly for many days.
