Chapter 1517

Chen Ning left the Guan Yu Palace without looking back, heading straight for the royal study.

"Greetings to the empress!"

When the guards outside the royal study saw her, they all bowed down.

"The emperor isn't here yet?" She saw that the door to the royal study was open and there was no one inside.

"Reporting to the empress, the emperor hasn't left court yet."

"Un, then this consort will go in and wait for the emperor to leave court."

Chen Ning walked in and arrived in front of the imperial desk. She saw a neat row of memorials on the right. She opened one and saw a few lines of small words written in red, which was Mo Chuan's handwriting.

She put down the memorial and opened another one, finding that it was also written by Mo Chuan.

There were at least fifty-sixty memorials on the table and just reading them would take a lot of time. Adding in the annotations, it was unknown how much time and effort Mo Chuan had spent on this desk.

No wonder he would only return to the palace late at night. No wonder every time she saw him, his eyes were filled with a faint fatigue. Although he hid it very well, it could not escape her eyes.

Seeing the memorials on the table, she felt her heart ache for him.

There was still Chu Shao Bai who could help him with his problems before, but now Chu Shao Bai had left, Chu Shao Yang had betrayed the country, and she was leaving tomorrow …..

After she left, this country's matters would all fall on his shoulders. There was no one to share it with and he had no one to talk to.

Her eyes unknowingly became wet and her vision became blurry. It was as if she could see his lonely figure sitting in front of the desk reading memorials, with only a single lamp accompanying him.

If it was really as Mo Chuan expected and Chu Shao Yang surrendered to South Yue, South Yue would attack West Chu. Then West Chu would face an unprecedented crisis!

There were wolves in front and tigers in the back. Once South Yue attacked, would East Qin take this chance to join forces with South Yue and divide West Chu among themselves?

She did not know any of this.

In this kind of dangerous situation, how could the West Chu Empress beside her stay out of this and hide in the Miracle Physician Valley to live a peaceful life?

She could not do it!

When she was married to Mo Chuan, she had made a vow that no matter what difficulties there were, she would bear it with him!

Chen Ning suddenly made her decision. She did not wait for Mo Chuan to leave court and walked out of the royal palace, heading straight for doctor Zhang's palace.

Before the sedan chair she was in arrived in front of doctor Zhang's palace, she suddenly heard a clamor in front of her as the sedan bearers stopped the sedan chair.

"Reporting to master, there are many commoners blocking the way, so our sedan chair can't pass." The sedan chair bearer reported in a low voice.

"Did something happen? Go and ask around. "

Chen Ning lifted the curtain and looked outside. She found that the road in front of her was filled with commoners. Everyone was standing on their tiptoes, like they were watching something.

After a while, the sedan chair bearer came.

"Master, this servant has asked around. It is Zhao Rong Princess who is blocking doctor Zhang's palace door, saying that she wants to compete with doctor Gu. Doctor Gu did not show himself and Zhao Rong Princess is blocking the door, not letting doctor Zhang's people in. Now the citizens are blocking the entire alley, so our sedan can't pass no matter what."

"Zhao Rong Princess wants to compete with my teacher?
