章 1833: Qing's Ending 1

Sword One was taken aback by the weight of Gu Chaoyan leaning on her. Concerned, she asked, "Elder Miss, are you alright?"

Gu Chaoyan weakly shook her head and replied, "I'm fine, just a little exhausted."

She had been feeling unwell and had been suppressing her fatigue while dealing with the guards. Using almost all her energy, she had almost nothing left, prompting her to lean on Sword One for comfort.

They entered the wagon.

Gu Chaoyan instructed Sword One to change into fresh undergarments.

Unable to bathe or change clothes fully, they settled for a simple wipe-down. The spare clothes provided some relief, reducing her discomfort.

Before taking a rest, Gu Chaoyan emphasized, "By standing up for the maids, I may have unintentionally worsened their treatment from the guards. Be vigilant and ensure their safety."

With that, Gu Chaoyan closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Sword One and Lingyun followed her instructions.
