Chapter 406 Visiting the patient

After a while, the maid came to report, "Your Majesty, the concubine said that she has been feeling unwell these past few days. She is afraid that the disease will be passed on to you, so...she will not come." The maid answered the rest of the question cautiously, and looked up at Concubine Zhang's expression with some fear.

As expected, after hearing this, Concubine Zhang immediately said angrily: "What a loser! How could our family produce someone so timid that she didn't even know how to seize such a good opportunity? No wonder she is the least favored among all the sons in the East Palace after so many years in the palace. It's a waste of the family's plans for her. If we had known this, we should have chosen someone else to come in." Concubine Zhang's tone was full of regret.

"Your Majesty, please be patient. The concubine is not in good health, and it is really not easy for her to worry about such things. As long as the Duke is of one mind with us, it will be fine." The maid said from another perspective.

"You are right. Fortunately, my brother is on our side. Whether our family can move to the next level depends on this time." Concubine Zhang thought about it and it made sense. After all, her brother was still the head of the family. This would only be icing on the cake in the future and was dispensable. When the big things were accomplished in the future, she would just live in peace in the palace.

"I'm glad your Majesty thinks so. Now we are..."

After Concubine Zhang calmed down, she didn't say anything else. "Now, of course we have to go see our Concubine. After all, she has been ill for so long, and we haven't visited her yet?"

In the Yikun Palace, Concubine Wang was about to rest when Yunqi walked in quickly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhang is here, and she said she came to visit you. How about I send her away..."

"Don't... let her in. There's nothing that she can't hide." Concubine Wang originally thought that she could wait at least a few days, but she couldn't wait any longer after just one day. It seemed that they were very anxious. The Crown Princess' words were obviously to comfort her without wanting to make her worry... After all, if she was sick in the past, the Crown Prince would definitely come to see her. She hadn't even seen the Crown Prince during this period of time. This was too abnormal. It seemed that the situation of the previous dynasty was not optimistic either.

Before Concubine Wang came to her senses, Concubine Zhang had already arrived in front of her.

"Sister, are you feeling better?" Concubine Zhang walked to the bedside with an attentive look on her face.

"Sister, please sit further away. I don't want to pass my illness on to you. Yunqi, come on, let the queen sit over there." Concubine Wang quickly pulled them away.

"Sister, please take good care of yourself. His Majesty is away, and all the big and small matters in the palace are relying on you," said Concubine Zhang with a concerned look on her face.

"Cough cough cough, no, don't I have my sister here? I'm not alone either." Concubine Wang said while coughing a few times.

"This... If my sister says so, then I will say something unpleasant. It is not suitable for you to be too tired now. You should take good care of your health. The palace still relies on you. Why don't you let a trustworthy and capable person to temporarily manage the harem for you, so that you can rest assured to recuperate. What do you think, Your Majesty?" Concubine Zhang immediately expressed her thoughts.

"I have thought about what my sister said. I originally thought that the Crown Princess has been assisting me for so many years, so I could let her come this time. However, she has been restless recently, so the matter has been shelved. My sister's coming here today really solved my urgent need. My sister is so smart, how about my sister coming here?"

Concubine Zhang didn't expect this to go so smoothly and she didn't react for a moment.
