However, while everyone was still in shock, Tang Youyou fell into silence.
Just now, she clearly saw a tiny worm wriggling inside Rong Xun's body beneath his skin.
This thing was probably the root cause of his amnesia.
No wonder Rong Xun had always looked at her as if she were a stranger. It seemed that this little thing must have something to do with it!
But who would use such a thing to control Rong Xun? The people from the Western Regions or those from the palace?
Thinking of this, Tang Youyou tightly clenched her fists. Looking at the man in front of her, her previously calm heart was now in turmoil.
She turned to look at the anxious generals behind her. "Your emperor is not seriously ill. He will recover in about a month. There's nothing to worry about here. You may leave."
After she finished speaking, these people left sensibly. Only General Yu, who was kneeling on one knee and let out a sigh of relief, remained.
But Tang Youyou couldn't remember ever hearing of such a loyal official by Rong Xun's side. It was truly rare.
Tang Youyou glanced at the military doctor beside her. "The emperor is physically weak. He should avoid spicy food recently. Grab the medicine according to this prescription three times a day."
After briefly giving some further instructions, the old doctor slowly left.
Tang Youyou looked at General Yu, who had regained his composure, and then spoke.
"General Yu, when did your relationship with the emperor become so deep?"
Hearing this, General Yu wiped away his tears, slowly stood up, and looked at Tang Youyou. "I've served the emperor for a long time. I've been by his side since childhood. Now that the emperor is on the battlefield, it's even more my duty to protect him."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou was a bit surprised. In the book, she had never seen this person's name before. How could such a person suddenly appear?
Looking at his serious expression, it didn't seem like he was lying. Coupled with the fact that she had recently reorganized the entire Western Regions, it seemed that she had not only changed the plot in the book but also unlocked more hidden characters and regions.
Although Tang Youyou was familiar with the world in front of her, there was still a hint of strangeness.
Just as she was in a daze, she heard the person behind her move slightly. She turned around and saw Rong Xun slowly opening his eyes.
He looked at Tang Youyou and stared at her in surprise.
"Who are you?"
This question left the two people in front of him stunned. General Yu was stunned because he didn't know why Tang Youyou was dressed as a man. Tang Youyou was stunned because even when this man saw her true appearance, he had no impression of her at all.
Meanwhile, outside the door, Su Ningde, who was pacing anxiously, saw the generals leaving the room with relieved expressions. Then he quickly walked in with a bowl of porridge in his hand.
However, when his eyes fell on Tang Youyou, he instantly froze in place, not knowing what to say. He didn't even realize that the long - missing empress had returned.
But Tang Youyou said calmly, "I presume this is the Eunuch Su who bullied this little girl before. It's only been three days, and you don't recognize me anymore?"
Tang Youyou deliberately said this while warning him with her eyes. Her warning gaze also applied to General Yu.
So, the two of them took turns speaking and quickly glossed over Tang Youyou's words.
The three of them didn't expect that this man was even easier to deceive than they thought. Rong Xun looked at Tang Youyou's peerless beauty without the slightest hint of excitement or anger in his heart.
With a look of complete unfamiliarity in his eyes, he stared at Tang Youyou's stunning face, then glanced at General Yu behind her, and suddenly sneered.
"General Yu, if you think I'm too idle on weekdays, you can just take a look at how many official documents are piled up on my desk. I really don't understand how, at a time like this, you still have the time to recommend these brothel girls to me. When did I ever have such leisurely elegance?"
Hearing Rong Xun's words, Su Ningde lowered his head even more. He silently took note of Rong Xun's words and nervously held the bowl of porridge in his hand.
Su Ningde thought to himself, "No wonder the emperor likes Concubine Wen. If everyone were as domineering as the empress, how could I ever live a peaceful life?"
Seeing Rong Xun getting angry, and with the warning looks from Tang Youyou and General Yu, Su Ningde had no choice but to leave dejectedly.
Rong Xun continued to size up Tang Youyou, then turned to look at General Yu.
General Yu said, "Your Majesty, this girl is the young man who was busy in your camp before."
Hearing this, Rong Xun's expression instantly turned incredulous. General Yu, being an honest man, spoke again. "All the military doctors said that Your Majesty wouldn't live through tomorrow, but it was this girl who saved you in the end."
This statement shocked Rong Xun again. He always felt as if he had seen her somewhere before.
Rong Xun weakly propped himself up to sit up, then turned to look at Tang Youyou and waved for her to come closer.
Seeing Rong Xun with pale lips, Tang Youyou couldn't bear it. She took two quick steps forward. Although she was angry that he had forgotten her, she felt more heartache.
"Your Majesty, do you have any orders?"
As soon as she spoke, Rong Xun's words were swallowed back.
"What? Am I not allowed to ask questions? You have a lot of nerve!"
Rong Xun was slightly angry, and a discomfort arose in his chest. He started coughing continuously. While coughing, he didn't forget to glare at Tang Youyou fiercely.
"I am the Son of Heaven. How dare you be so disrespectful!"
These two sentences exhausted all of Rong Xun's strength. Tang Youyou was also provoked and spoke with full of provocation.
"Your Majesty, this commoner girl has saved Your Majesty's life. But as soon as Your Majesty wakes up, you speak to me like this. If such a thing were to spread, how many common people would be heartbroken?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Rong Xun's face instantly turned red. The next moment, he spat out a mouthful of blood, which stained the ground red. He fell into a coma again.
On the other side, seeing the emperor fall into a coma again, General Yu panicked and grabbed Tang Youyou's sleeve. "Girl, this perfectly fine man was just fine. How could you make him faint again! What should we do now?"
Although General Yu was anxious, there was not the slightest bit of blame in his tone.
But Tang Youyou said calmly, "I'm doing this for his own good. If we don't let out the blood accumulated in his chest, this man won't live for more than half a year. As the saying goes, a bit of anger can keep one young."
Looking at Tang Youyou's serious expression, General Yu nodded half - understandingly. "So, the emperor's illness can only be cured if more people make him angry, right?"
After saying this, Tang Youyou sneered. As she left, she gently patted General Yu on the shoulder.
