Therefore, the Second Prince feels both disappointment and hope towards Princess Consort Lan.
As he walked forward, his face remained expressionless.
Lady Lan was accustomed to his demeanor and naturally felt displeased in her heart.
But in front of the Emperor, she had to put on a show.
She reached out to touch his forehead and then pressed it against her own.
"Fortunately, there's no fever. Your body is most afraid of heat. The sun outside is scorching, yet you still sneak out. Nanny Chai heard you were missing and urgently sent people to find Mother Consort Lan to look for you."
Then she apologized slightly to the Emperor.
"Emperor, Nanny Chai has served the Second Prince since he was little. She was more anxious than anyone when he sneaked out, and she didn't report it to Mr. Dong for fear of disturbing you while you're handling state affairs."
"Upon knowing this, I immediately dispatched people to search everywhere."
