It turned out to be a disturbance caused by drinking on an empty stomach.
An Jing realized then.
She glanced outside at the sky and saw it was almost noon, yet Tobanya had not risen yet, which must mean her condition was more than just discomfort—it was extreme discomfort.
Believing so, An Jing said, "Go quickly and summon a doctor to check on her."
Once the maidservants had departed, An Jing turned to her husband, "Yesterday was the anniversary of Wild Goose Jade’s father and the Five Clans, no wonder she didn’t eat and just drank."
Xiao Changyi remained silent, standing there, holding a Wolf’s hair brush, writing on paper.
His characters soared dynamically across the page, extremely bold and forceful, quite pleasing to the eyes.
While watching Xiao Changyi write, An Jing continued, "She truly has a hard fate; initially, she did not mean any harm when she persisted in wanting you to take her as a disciple. She only wanted vengeance. Now that we know everything about her, we understand she is good. Now that she is staying in our home, let’s take good care of her if we can."
Xiao Changyi still didn’t speak, continuing his writing.
"Even though she is the esteemed Commandery Princess, she is the only one in her family, really very lonely." As she said this, An Jing sighed. "Once, I was also the only one in my family. She is somewhat like me; I had also sought revenge for the dismemberment of my parents, which is why I joined the military."
As soon as Xiao Changyi heard An Jing mention the dismemberment of her parents again, he immediately put down his brush, stopping his writing, and pulled An Jing into his embrace, holding her tightly.
He still said nothing, just holding her tightly, as if trying to merge her into his body, to become one.
All the words in the world could not match him silently holding her, giving her strength, cherishing her.
An Jing hugged Xiao Changyi back, soothing with her words, "Husband, it’s all in the past, I survived those painful times, I took my revenge in the end, and besides that, I found you."
"Mm." Finally, Xiao Changyi responded, holding her even tighter.
Feeling the strength applied to her body, An Jing smiled and then said, "Husband, I’m not overly sympathetic, it’s just that sometimes, she makes me profoundly empathize."
"Later, let’s go see her."
"I hope she can be as fortunate as I have been in the future, to have happiness like mine." An Jing sincerely hoped.
Xiao Changyi did not speak. For him, Tobanya was a person of no consequence, and his wishes would not be wasted on someone inconsequential to him.
After lunch, having put the four little ones down for their nap, and once they were asleep, An Jing and Xiao Changyi went to visit Tobanya.
Tobanya had already been seen by a doctor. There was no serious issue, no need for medication, but she needed to be well-rested, and during her recovery, it was best to eat only light food.
"Do you feel better?" An Jing asked.
Tobanya replied, "I feel better, thank you for your concern, Prince and Princess."
"That’s good to hear." After pausing, An Jing added, "But don’t strain your body again; remember, your body is your own to manage, and if you ruin it, you’re the one who will suffer."
"Yes, Wild Goose Jade has taken this to heart," Tobanya replied submissively.
Seeing Tobanya’s injured right hand, An Jing frowned and asked, "What happened to your hand?" The maidservants didn’t mention her hand was injured.
Tobanya replied, "It’s just a scratch I got by accident, it’s nothing serious; you don’t need to worry, Princess."
