The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

The old housekeeper trembled as he said, “General had already left a few days ago…”

Lianyi froze, her eyes visibly flashing with panic.

“Then, you wait here. I’ll go report to the emperor.”

***

Imperial Palace.

A hundred flowers bloomed in the back garden, a beautiful woman in the palace dress walked forward with her servants, trembling, as she saw a yellow-robed man standing quietly in the pavilion.

The man was quite handsome, with sharp eyebrows and domineering eyes.

However, the man’s eyes were filled with anxiety.

“Your Majesty…”

The empress walked over to the man anxiously. Her eyes were filled with tears, and her face was a bit pale.

“Is something wrong with Yu’er?”

Qi Fang looked at the empress’s face that was already filled with tears and sighed softly, “Empress, don’t worry, Yu’er will be fine. Feng Lianqing will bring him back.”

The empress ignored the man. She walked in and looked at Lianyi, kneeling in front of the man, and asked, “Maiden Lianyi, you went to the spirit beast mountain with Feng Lianqing. Why have you come back alone? Where’s Yu’er? Why didn’t he come back with you?”

Qi Yu was useless, but the empress almost died giving birth to him back then, so she had always loved him a little more. She had not slept well for several days and nights since Qi Yu was missing.

Therefore, when she had heard the palace servant say that Lianyi had gone to the palace to meet the emperor, she immediately rushed back.

Lianyi lowered her head, not daring to look at the empress’s eyes.

Such action made the empress’s heart panic even more. “I order you to tell me what has happened to Yu’er?”

Her voice trembled and was a bit harsh.

Lianyi subconsciously looked at Qi Fang.

Qi Fang sighed and gave a slight nod.

Lianyi raised her eyes and looked at the empress. “Empress… Little Prince he… He was taken away by a leopard…”

This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the clear sky that made the empress fall backward. Her eyes were dim, and she could not stand firmly on her feet.

She would have fainted if Qi Fang did not hold her in time.

“Impossible, you’re lying to me. Where’s Feng Lianqing! Tell him to come back and bring Yu’er back immediately!” The empress grasped Qi Fang’s hand tightly.

Qi Fang frowned, but he did not stop her, allowing her to let her emotions out.

“Tell Feng Lianqing to bring him back quickly. Bring back my son!” The empress’s voice was hysterical. Her eyes reddened, and tears were rolling down from her beautiful eyes.

Her body in Qi Fang’s arms was trembling a little.

Qi Fang turned back to Lianyi. “General Tian Ya is such a powerful man, but why are you two so bad at doing things?”

Lianyi’s face was pale. “Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with me or Big Brother Feng. Initially, the little prince was in danger. Big Brother Feng and I found him in time and saved him from a red tiger.”

Qi Fang’s eyes were cold and stern. “Then, why did he reencounter danger?”

“It’s…” Lianyi lowered her head, her voice trembling. “We met someone not so nice.”

‘Met someone not so nice?’

Qi Fang’s face sank. “What do you mean?”

“At first, Brother Feng and I found a lost woman, seeing that she was pregnant and pitiful, we felt sympathy for her, so we brought her along with us, but…” Lianyi raised her head; her face was grave with pain. “Little Prince thought she was a servant in the general’s house, so he had asked her to take off her clothes to wipe his face…”
