Empress Gu Zongying heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her son opening his eyes.
The latter had been unconscious for days.
“Are you alright dear?”
she asked, helping him seat down at the edge of the bed.
Xie Peizhi walked over to the table and returned with a cup of water, she handed the cup of water over to the empress
“Here Yuxuan, have it” empress Gu Zongying gave it to him.
Xie Yuxuan collected the cup of water from his mother, but he never drank it which made his mother fret.
Xie Yuxuan thought that he had just went to bed like he does every night, but what is the meaning of the look on his mother’s face?
He kept the water on the bedside table then slowly stood up to take of his clothes.
“Xie Peizhi go inform your father that your brother is awake” empress Gu Zongying instructed.
Xie Peizhi nodded before walking out of the room.
“Yuxuan, I thought I lost you” the empress began, as she walked towards him.
