"Yes." Su Xinyi nodded and hesitated for a moment before asking with concern, "Father Emperor..."
She didn't know if she should inquire about His Majesty's health. There were many rules in the palace, and she had to be cautious.
Yan Junchu then said, "Father Emperor has already woken up."
Su Xinyi let out a sigh of relief and smiled genuinely. "That's really good news."
His Majesty must not have any accidents. If he were to fall and not get up, chaos would ensue in the court.
The couple exchanged glances, and Yan Junchu took a sip of tea. The tea slid down his throat and caused a slight sting, as he remembered that due to his father's sudden collapse, he hadn't drunk any water for half a day.
After drinking the tea, the Crown Prince said, "Father Emperor ordered me to lead the troops on an expedition."
Su Xinyi was not surprised. If Duke Zheng could not lead the army, the only one who could command the three armies was the Crown Prince.
