Capítulo 343: Chapter 323: The Empress (One More)

Inside Yangxin Hall, the Emperor had a sickly countenance, and the strong smell of medicine permeated the area.

When the Empress entered, she was startled by the appearance of the Emperor. It seemed that overnight, the Emperor had significantly aged, looking haggard and worn.

She approached the bed, softly calling out, "Your Majesty."

The Emperor responded with a grunt, opened his eyes, looked at the Empress, and said, "Sit, please!"

The Empress took her seat.

The Emperor asked, "Have they all left?"

"I sent them all away," replied the Empress, fixing her gaze on the Emperor. "The children are all very worried about you. You must take care of your Dragon Body."

The tone of the Empress seemed calm, but upon paying closer attention, it revealed worry and concern.

The Emperor extended his hand, "Help me up."

The Empress reached out and helped the Emperor up. A perceptive eunuch immediately brought a pillow for the Emperor to lean on.
