"Your Highness, Crown Prince!"
Qi Jingyu dashed inside, eager to see his father, the Emperor.
Li Qingmu followed closely behind but sensed something was amiss, so he quickened his pace slightly. After him came Empress Dowager Li and Princess Consort Qin.
The group rushed into Qianlong Palace, but they were stopped by the Imperial Physician outside.
"Imperial Concubine, Crown Prince, His Majesty is unwell and may not be fit to see visitors..."
"Insolence! Since His Majesty is unwell, it is all the more necessary for us to see him!"
Princess Consort Qin shouted sharply. The Imperial Physician glanced at Empress Dowager Li and, seeing her displeased expression, realized he had made a mistake and hurriedly knelt down.
"Father!"
"Your Majesty!"
"..."
As soon as the Imperial Physician stepped aside, everyone rushed in, hurrying to the Emperor's sickbed.
"Your Majesty!"
