Chapter 184 - 182. You Almost Died! I (1/2)
Third-person POV
Hong er ran off without a word. The Yun sisters followed behind her and worried about Hong er's safety. Hong er anxiously bit her lip as her heart beating like crazy. From afar, they could see a line of black smoke come out from afar. Not long after, they arrived at her courtyard and saw the fire had extinguished, leaving the wall a black stain of being burnt.
The damage wasn't that severe as the guards came pretty fast when they smelled something was not right. Hong er looked around and couldn't find her husband and son's figure. Then a servant ran towards her and bowed respectfully.
Servant: ”Greeting to Your Maje-”
Hong er: ”Where are they?”
Servant: ”His Majesty Emperor and His Highness Prince are in Physician Shu's infirmary to receive treatment.”
Hong er's face was black as ink, she turned around and went to Shu Zhiruo's infirmary. The servants shivered under her intimidating aura and didn't dare to breathe loudly. As she walked closer to the infirmary, she saw Weisheng and Xue Lang's servants were pacing back and forward in front of the entrance.
The servants noticed the intense aura and quickly gave their greetings to Hong er. Hong er nodded her head and let the eunuch to announce her presence. The servants opened the door after they heard Weisheng's approval from inside.
Hong er stepped in and furrowed her brow. Shu Zhiruo was applying medicine on Xue Lang's palm while another old physician smearing the medicine all over Weisheng's right arm. Since Shu Zhiruo is a woman especially unmarried, she shouldn't recklessly touch men especially Weisheng as he is an emperor.
Knowing that Hong er was not in a very good mood, Weisheng turned his head away to avoid her glare while Xue Lang lowered his head in guilt. Meiyun pulled a chair over to Hong er so she could take a seat. Hong er sat down and let out a deep sigh as she rubbed her belly. Just now she ran too fast and was worried if it would affect the child.
Shu Zhiruo let her assistant to take over her in applying medicine to Xue Lang and went to Hong er side. She checked Hong er pulse and said that everything was fine, it just that Hong er suddenly used her energy in large amount that it made her dizzy.
Weisheng: ”Why do you have to run that fast? What if you fell?”
Hong er: ”Because of who, that I have to ran that fast?”
Weisheng: ”…”
Hong er: ”Do you mind explaining everything to Chen qie?”
Hong er's voice was colder than the blizzard in the Frosted Mountain. Xue Lang's hands trembled more vigorous as he even saw his father was also scared by the pregnant woman.
Weisheng: ”…”
Seeing that her husband turned his head away once again and refused to say a word, she changed her target to the pitiful looking Xue Lang.
Hong er: ”Xue Lang, tell mother what happened.”
Xue Lang flinched when his name came out from Hong er's lips.
Xue Lang: ”Imp-imperial Mother, this son didn't do it on purpose.”
Hong er: ”What is it?”
Xue Lang: ”I don't know that we shouldn't pour water into hot oil.”
Hong er: ”What?!”
Weisheng: ”It's me. I don't know too, so I told him to put the tofu into the hot oil.”
While Weisheng was doing the cutting job, Xue Lang obliviously put the tofu together with the water into the overheated oil.
Hong er: ”And?”
Weisheng: ”Hm?”
