After Imperial Doctor Zhang left, Xia Ruqing walked out from the inner room.
She saw Zhao Junyao still busy with his official documents.
So she asked.
"Emperor, is Noble Concubine Shih not doing well?"
Zhao Junyao didn't even lift his head and absentmindedly replied with a 'hmm'.
Then buried himself back into the documents.
Xia Ruqing sat down beside him, watched for a while, and continued to ask.
"Emperor, aren't you going to see her?"
Zhao Junyao paused his writing and suddenly looked up, staring at her coolly.
"Do you want me to go?"
"No!"
She blurted out without hesitation.
"I don't want you to go at all!"
Zhao Junyao lowered his head again, coughing lightly twice.
"Then why do you keep asking?"
Xia Ruqing murmured with her head down: "I'm afraid you might go!"
Zhao Junyao's serious expression could not help but relax.
"I never said I was going to go in the first place!"
Xia Ruqing completely settled her worries.
