Just then, Prince Jing came over and immediately his gaze darkened upon seeing the tear stains on the Princess Consort's face. He said, "What happened? Did someone from the backcourt upset you?"
"No, it's just that I heard from nanny that during the two days I was unconscious, the Prince has been taking care of me. I'm simply too moved."
As the Princess Consort spoke, she tried to perform a courtesy, but Prince Jing stopped her, "Enough, when there are no outsiders, there is no need for such formalities."
The Princess Consort did not insist, "Why has the Prince come over?"
Heaven knows how much she didn't want to face Prince Jing at that moment.
Seeing him filled her heart with guilt, regret, and rendered her unable to think straight.
"I naturally came to see you," he said, and waved at Nanny Liu who was still standing by, "Go on, you can leave. The Princess Consort will be well cared for by me."
