418 A Narrow Escape

On the other hand, Gu Qingxue and Rong Zhan waited outside the Imperial study.

The Emperor had yet to end his court session, so Gu Qingxue and the others could not enter the house. They could only wait outside.

Gu Qingxue lowered her head and looked at the squarish floor tiles under her feet. She couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

Fortunately, she was wearing the cloak that Rong Zhan gave her. Otherwise, she would definitely be frozen out if she kept standing in the cold wind.

Gu Qingxue did not say a word as she waited, allowing the cold wind to blow and blow her little face red. She didn’t make a single sound of complaint.

Even the eunuchs outside the door could not help but look at Gu Qingxue.

Gu Qingxue’s expression was exceptionally calm, and her elegant temperament even surpassed many of the concubines and young masters in the palace.

Gu Qingxue and Rong Zhan waited for a while more before they finally saw a bright yellow sedan chair slowly approaching, surrounded by a group of eunuchs and guards.

“The emperor has arrived …” The head eunuch, Kang Fujiang, said loudly.

“Your Majesty.” Rong Zhan took a step forward as he spoke and bowed.

As the prince regent, Rong Zhan had the privilege of not having to bow to anyone. _{Google search 𝙛𝘳𝘦𝐞𝑤ℯ𝗯n𝗼ѵe𝑙. c૦𝑚}

Gu Qingxue did not have such a good treatment. Without a word, she knelt down and bowed after Rong Zhan spoke.”I, Gu Qingxue, pay my respects to Your Majesty.”

The other party was the king of a country. She was not stupid enough to strike a stone with an egg and challenge the king of a country.

“Rise.” A dignified voice came from the palanquin. Then, as Kang Fujiang stepped forward and pulled open the curtain, a middle-aged man in a bright yellow Dragon robe slowly walked down from the palanquin.

Gu Qingxue stood up and carefully observed the Emperor in front of her from the corner of her eyes.

The Emperor looked like he was in his early forties. Even though the marks of time could be seen on his face, it still could not hide his imposing manner. It made people not dare to have any thoughts of disrespect, as if looking at him was blasphemy.

Gu Qingxue’s heart trembled, and she could not help but sigh.

As expected of the ruler of a country, his aura was indeed extraordinary.

“Prince regent, you’ve worked hard this time. Kang Fujiang, please invite the prince regent and doctor Gu into the Imperial study to bestow a seat.” The Emperor said indifferently. As he spoke, he had already entered the Imperial study.

It was Gu Qingxue’s first time seeing the dignity of a king, and she personally experienced the demeanor of a king.

Rong Zhan looked at Gu Qingxue. “Don’t be nervous. I’m here. You don’t have to be afraid.”

Gu Qingxue looked at Rong Zhan.

She was not actually nervous, but she had to admit that Rong Zhan’s words made her feel at ease.

“Hurry up and go in, don’t let His Majesty wait too long.” As Rong Zhan spoke, he stepped into the door of the Royal study first.

Gu Qingxue followed closely behind. She stepped into the Royal study and quickly scanned her surroundings. The words ‘resplendent and magnificent’ appeared in her mind uncontrollably.

Not daring to look too closely, Gu Qingxue followed Rong Zhan and stood in front of Rong Xiaotian.

“Grant me a seat.” Rong Xiaotian waved his hand and motioned for the two to sit down.

“Your subject thanks Your Majesty.” As Rong Zhan spoke, he brought Gu Qingxue to a seat. Your Majesty, according to your Majesty’s decree, miss Gu Qingxue is here to explain the plague that appeared near Qingyuan town.

“Yes, I have long heard of doctor Gu’s strong medical skills. Doctor Gu, please explain the entire matter to me in detail.” Rong Xiaotian looked at Gu Qingxue indifferently.

Gu Qingxue stood up and bowed before saying, ” Your Majesty, the plague this time is called corpse rashes. It’s a rare and difficult disease. It’s highly contagious and has a high chance of dying. If it’s not controlled in time, it can spread from Qingyuan town to the capital in a short month.
