Chapter seventeen in limbo

Su Jin began to cry again. "I haven't found the prince yet, and I don't know whether the prince is alive or dead. In a rage, the emperor issued a pursuit order. Whoever gets the prince's head will have a great reward!" Lauren's mouth is bitter. It's been seven days. Has his anger not dissipated? "Empress, drink some water first!" Su Jin brought hot water. She glanced at the narrow and cold palace. "Are my father and brother all right?" "The Meng family did not take part in the prince's case according to the Empress's orders. Instead, they abided by their duty and only took care of their duties. The Empress did not bring trouble to the Meng family this time, but the Emperor ordered the Meng family not to enter the palace to visit you. These days, except that the Imperial Doctor often came to see the Empress's injuries every day, none of the harem concubines came to visit." Su Jin said, somewhat resentful, although the empress did not have too much contact with the concubines in the harem in the past, but the empress had never mistreated them with food and clothing. They did not even have this gratitude. Have they all forgotten the kindness of those slaves and empress? Compared with Su Jin's resentment, Lauren looks much calmer. "Well, it's okay to have a good home." "Empress, Su Jin feels uncomfortable!" Lauren looked at her and knew that she was sorry for herself. She smiled. "Su Jin, I'm fine. When I recover in a few days, I'll be fine!" "But empress, your rear position..." Su Jinhong eyes, awkward. Lauren smiled clearly. "He convicted me of being an accomplice of the prince's rebellion and has put me in limbo. Naturally, I can't keep my position behind me, but that's never what I saw. It doesn't matter." She hasn't recovered yet, and she is tired between words. When she wakes up, it is already night, and there is no candle in the palace. When she moves her body, Su Jin gets up from the ground. "Empress, are you awake?" "Why don't you light the lamp?" After she asked the exit, the air was quiet for several seconds. She realized something and gave a wry smile. No wonder Su Jin cried like that. It turned out that this cold palace was really too chilling! "Su Jin, you come up." Since she doesn't even have a candle, she doesn't expect another set of bedding in the cold palace. Does Su Jin sleep on the ground every day? "Empress, Su Jin is not cold. This is against the rules." Lauren smiled. "You have been with me for so long. When have I kept any rules? Besides, I am not a queen now. There are only you and me here. Why are you still restrained?" Su Jin still refused to move. She urged again, "Come up, my body is cold, you give me hot bedding." "Yes, Empress." As soon as Su Jin came up, Lauren realized how cold she was and was covered in ice. She curled up under her bed and took care of her day and night for seven days. She silently grasped Su Jin's hand. Su Jin did not dare to move. The empress never had a tail finger again! "Chang Taiyi is here." Su Jin rushed in excitedly from the outer hall and drew the curtain for Lauren. Only at this time of day is Su Jin the happiest. "See Empress." Chang Cheng kneels according to etiquette. Lauren waved with his hand. "Get up. This is different from the past. Chang Taiyi doesn't have to be polite. I have been cared for by Chang Taiyi in the past few days." "Where is the empress? The empress's kindness to the minister is unforgettable. These are all the things I should do." Chang Cheng took out a small box from the medicine box. "This is secretly brought in by the minister. There is no candlelight at night. It is really inconvenient, but please use it carefully with Aunt Su Jin." Su Jin was busy taking it over and hiding it. "Chang Taiyi is at ease, I must use it well." "Empress, let me feel the pulse for Empress!"
