On the early morning of New Year's Day, Song Ci learned of the accident involving Song Zhiqing only after Dan Ge'er had come to pay his respects to her, when the servants finally dared to inform her.
Song Ci's face turned dark, and she asked, "How is he doing now?"
"He hasn't woken up yet, the Prime Minister has invited Imperial Physician Cheng to treat him," said Nanny Gong.
Song Ci replied, "He's truly a worrisome one. I knew he would eventually cause trouble."
She lowered her head and spoke to Dan Ge'er in her arms, "Dan Ge'er, you play by yourself in the east wing for now, Grandma will go and check on your Third Uncle."
Dan Ge'er said, "Grandma, Dan Ge'er wants to go too."
"Good boy, it's quite chaotic at your Third Uncle's place right now, wait until things settle a bit before you go. Or you can first go play with your elder brothers?"
Dan Ge'er pouted his rosy little mouth and nodded.
