บท 121: Chapter 121: When Push Comes to Shove

"Second Brother." Xiangning was now somewhat afraid to see Zuo Ziteng.

"Is the Princess Consort of Chu and her child doing well?" Zuo Ziteng asked with concern.

"They are doing fine." Xiangning said with a smile, "Today, Brother Hong could even open his eyes... Oh, right, our eldest sister said that it's fine for us, as family, to just call him Brother Hong."

"When there's a chance, I'd also like to visit Brother Hong," Zuo Ziteng said, forcing a small smile.

He picked up his teacup and took a sip, then continued, "Xiangning, I have a favor to ask of you."

"Second Brother, feel free to speak your mind," Xiangning said as her hair stood on end, guessing what Zuo Ziteng was about to say.

"Could you have Doctor Liu think of another way, to see if there's any method to save Auntie Liu..." A tear glimmered in the corner of Zuo Ziteng's eyes.

Xiangning promised, "I'll have someone go and ask again in a moment."
