Jiang Zhao Yuan wanted to argue his case, but before he could speak, an announcement came from outside.
"Eldest Princess, Your Majesty is awake!"
The Eldest Princess shot to her feet, stunned and overjoyed. "Is it true!?"
The palace servant who brought the news quickly said, "How would I dare joke about such a thing? Second Miss Ye performed acupuncture on His Majesty and had a medicine brewed for him. His high fever has mostly broken, and he's awake! You must go see for yourself!"
Upon hearing this, the Eldest Princess hastened outside.
Jiang Zhao Yuan swallowed whatever he was about to say.
Nothing was more important at the moment, and he certainly knew his priorities.
Chen Songshi started for the door, but after taking just one step, he seemed to remember something and turned back around.
"Oh, right. Those memorials we just approved—have our subordinates act on them immediately. The sooner, the better."
