Hua Qingqing endured the pain and made her way to Hanzhang Hall.
By the time the Emperor saw her, she was drenched in sweat, her face ashen and pale as paper.
Anyone with eyes could see how terrible her condition was.
The Emperor immediately ordered for an Imperial Physician to be summoned.
He personally swept Hua Qingqing up into his arms, laid her gently on the bed, and soothed her in a gentle voice.
"Just lie down and rest. The Imperial Physician will be here soon."
Hua Qingqing gripped his hand tightly, crying as she pleaded.
"My sister has been taken by wicked people! I beg you to save her, please!"
The Emperor was astonished.
He turned to the nanny standing by his side and asked with a frown.
"How does Hua Jieyu know about Princess Consort Zhao's abduction? Who told her?"
The nanny answered truthfully, "It was Lady Liang."
She then repeated everything Lady Liang had said earlier, word for word.
After hearing this, the Emperor flew into a rage.
