Luo Shunchen glanced around and, finding it inconvenient to explain to her, refrained from saying much.
Seeing the Imperial Physician arriving, Ji Ruyan tossed a wine cup to the side.
Clatter—
The sound of the wine cup garnered everyone's attention.
With a nonchalant sweep of her gaze over the crowd, Ji Ruyan indifferently said, "Sorry, my hand slipped, and I spilled it."
Emperor Xuan looked at her intently and then instructed Gao He, "Gao He, get a new wine cup for the Seventh Imperial Concubine."
His implication was clear – he would overlook the matter of the shattered cup in the hall.
Luo Shunchen knew that it was Ji Ruyan's signal to call the little guy back.
Without waiting for a command from Emperor Xuan, Gao He had already softly spoken to the Imperial Physician, "Imperial Doctor Cai, please take a look at the Marquis Wande and see what's wrong."
"Yes."
Helping the Marquis Wande to sit down, Imperial Doctor Cai took his pulse carefully.
