Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 593

Chapter 593: Chapter 590: Of Great Importance!_1

Seeing Bai Qingyan tightly clutching her hands and lowering her eyes in deep thought, Lu Ping knelt down on one knee and said to Bai Qingyan, "Miss, I want to take some people to Nanrong to assist the young master!"

"The last time you appeared in Nanrong as a merchant. What identity do you plan to use this time?" Bai Qingyan’s tone clearly expressed disapproval.

A military report from the frontier arrived at a gallop, night and day, which took about six days. It meant that Yan and Beirong had already attacked Nanrong six days ago.

Bai Qingyan couldn’t just stay in the mansion looking for ways. She needed to find an excuse to see the Crown Prince and gather specific military intelligence.

"You should step down first. Do not act rashly. Let’s discuss everything after I return from the palace!" Bai Qingyan instructed Lu Ping.

"I will escort you to the palace!" Lu Ping persisted.

"You go prepare the horse!"

"Yes!" Lu Ping responded quickly, almost bumping into Chun Tao, who was coming in after seeing off Doctor Hong.

Chun Tao saw Lu Ping leave in a hurry and asked as she lifted the curtain, "Why is Lu Huyuan in such a rush?"

"Chun Tao, help me change clothes. I need to go out." Bai Qingyan said.

After changing, Bai Qingyan walked out while speaking to Chun Tao, "In a moment, go tell Grandmother and Second Aunt and Jinxiu that I am going to the palace and that they should not wait for me for the meal."

Chun Tao chased after Bai Qingyan, responding in agreement until Bai Qingyan mounted the horse. Chun Tao then turned to report to the Eldest Princess and Mrs. Liu.

The Imperial Palace.

The Crown Prince lay on a soft bed in the Emperor’s bedchamber, having Doctor Huang take his pulse.

Quan Yu knelt beside the Crown Prince, placing an ice pack on the Crown Prince’s forehead, and whispered to Doctor Huang, "His Highness has been worried about His Majesty throughout the journey. He found it difficult to eat and sleep, and as soon as he arrived at the gates of Dadu City this morning, he developed a high fever, yet he still forced himself to enter the palace."

Doctor Huang withdrew his hand from taking the pulse and said, "The Crown Prince was too fearful and worried. When he finally relaxed, he developed a fever! It’s nothing serious! I will prescribe some medicine to clear the heat, and His Highness will soon be well!"

While packing up the medicine box, Doctor Huang said to the Crown Prince, "His Majesty had quite a scare. But fortunately, my senior brother, Doctor Hong, is in Dadu City, and Miss Lu helped with acupuncture, so the danger was averted." _{freёweɓnovel.com}

The Crown Prince nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Huang!"

"It’s my duty. How dare I accept the Crown Prince’s thanks!" Doctor Huang hurriedly stood up and bowed to the Crown Prince.

Gao Demao, who had been standing beside them for a long time, finally spoke up, "Your Highness, you should return to the Crown Prince’s residence to rest more. Otherwise, if His Majesty hasn’t awakened and you fall first, it would only worry His Majesty!"

"I...am just concerned about Father!" The Crown Prince adjusted his sleeves, looking anxiously towards the bed behind the yellow curtain.

"Your filial piety is truly moving. When His Majesty wakes up and learns of your filial devotion, he will be relieved and touched. But right now, the urgent matter for you is to return to the Crown Prince’s residence, rest well, and take over state affairs from King Liang...handle the affairs for His Majesty!" Gao Demao lowered his voice and gave the Crown Prince a hint.
