As the Emperor, Si Chu's safety was tied to the entire Great Qi's fate. The news of his unconsciousness, if leaked, could unsettle the people and cause turmoil, not to mention that in Shengjing, there were groups of opportunistic predators. Should the Empress Dowager's faction get wind of this, they would undoubtedly seize the chance to stir up trouble!
They were far in Jincheng; should any upheaval occur in Shengjing, it would truly be a case of being too far to quench a nearby thirst!
Zhui Ying instantly grasped Mingshu's intent. He naturally understood the gravity of the situation and promptly straightened up, "Your subordinate understands, Your Highness, rest assured!"
Mingshu pondered for a moment, "These days, I have to trouble you to work harder. You must stay by His Majesty's side at all times to ensure his safety. I fear those people won't feel at ease and will make covert moves, which we may not be able to guard against!"
