Tangyuan, Tangyuan...
Who? Who is calling me?
When she struggled to wake up, she realized it was all just a dream. The door had been shaken so loudly that she couldn’t clearly see who the man was. So, when she opened the door with a gloomy face, and saw Qingfeng standing outside, her tone was extremely harsh.
"What do you want, disturbing people’s sleep in the middle of the night?"
Qingfeng was startled by Tangyuan’s grogginess, but he urgently said, "My lord is injured."
Tangyuan’s sleepiness immediately vanished, "What did you say?"
"My lord was inspecting the disaster victims when a child suddenly rushed out and stabbed him. Worst of all, the dagger was contaminated with the blood of an infected person."
Tangyuan quickly calmed down, "I’ll be there right away." With that, she slammed the door shut before Qingfeng could say anything else.
Since her hair was undone due to the urgency, she simply braided her long hair into two twist braids hanging in front of her chest.
However, as she looked at herself in the mirror, her consciousness suddenly blurred. This face... it looks like the woman in my dream! Follow current novels on novel✦fire.net
Could it be that the woman in the dream is me after I’ve slimmed down?
Tangyuan didn’t believe this absurdity. She scrutinized the woman in the mirror carefully and then took a deep breath. Was it really her?
Then who was that man?
It definitely wasn’t Ning Xu, but the dream told her that she was still an empress. What did that mean? Was she unable to escape the fate of becoming an empress in the future?
Tangyuan didn’t know what the dream represented. Was it foreseeing the future, or was it simply a reflection of her daytime thoughts? Could it be that deep down, she aspired to be an empress?
Shaking her head vigorously, she rummaged around for some medicine and a whole jar of spiritual spring water, then headed to Rong Heng’s room.
When she arrived, the Imperial Physician and some local doctors were there. They had already detoxified and bandaged Rong Heng’s wounds. When she walked in, these people were sitting there with worried expressions. Tangyuan knew they were concerned about the possibility of Rong Heng being infected.
Due to the blood contamination and the stabbing, the likelihood of Rong Heng being infected could be as high as ninety percent. He was the core figure of the entire command team, which led the officials and doctors to fear that the administrative system might collapse or even fall apart entirely.
Rong Heng was not unconscious and remained alert. As soon as she arrived, he, without a word, handed over his token to her.
Initially, Tangyuan did not understand and thought it was for her to keep safe. Little did she know, Rong Heng had already planned his strategy while being bandaged.
Taking advantage of the presence of the officials, he directly decided to transfer the entire command of Taiyang Prefecture to Tangyuan.
Not only was Tangyuan shocked, but even all the officials doubted their ears for a moment.
They were of course aware of this woman who always accompanied Prince Heng and were deeply aware of the Prince’s trust in her. However, they had never anticipated that his trust would extend this far. The shock was momentary, and they quickly reacted, opposing with the attitude of rather offending someone than accepting.
Since Tangyuan was a woman – and not only a woman, but a chubby one, and moreover, one who knew nothing – how could the command be entrusted to her at such a critical juncture? Was Prince Heng really placing the safety of the entire Taiyang Prefecture in the hands of a woman who was clueless about such matters?
That was simply outrageous!
