After time travel, share a space with your modern family.

Upon hearing Ruan Mumu's words, Consort Xiao did not hesitate at all. She took the bottle, took a mouthful of spiritual spring water, and then gently pried open Emperor Kang Sheng's lips, covering them with hers and slowly feeding him the water.

Feeling embarrassed to keep staring, the people standing inside the room all turned their heads away.

There was no further sound from inside the hall. The concubines, princes, and princesses waiting outside sensed that something was wrong and kept trying to rush into the inner chamber. Their voices grew louder and louder, and the guards could no longer stop them.

Just after Consort Xiao finished feeding the last drop of water, she sat down next to Emperor Kang Sheng and quietly waited for a miracle to happen.

Eunuch Liu quickly put away the imperial edict and hid it in Emperor Kang Sheng's quilt.

When the concubines, princes, and princesses rushed in, this was the scene they saw.

Emperor Kang Sheng lay motionless on the bed, while Consort Xiao sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes red and swollen, staring intently at Emperor Kang Sheng's reaction.

Eunuch Liu tucked the blanket around Emperor Kang Sheng, observing his reaction with a look of anxiety.

Three imperial physicians stood by the dragon bed, with Physician Li craning his neck to wait for Emperor Kang Sheng's reaction.

Qiao Tinghao sat quietly with Ruan Mumu in the center of the main hall, drinking tea and eating snacks.

"Who are you people? How dare you eat and drink so lavishly here? Do you even know where you are?" A girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old couldn't help but angrily rebuke the two men for their nonchalant attitude.

Ruan Mumu ignored the spoiled voice and continued eating her pastries without even lifting her eyelids.

Qiao Tinghao looked at Ruan Mumu's reaction and thought she was really cute at this moment. No matter what the environment was, she could still eat so well. Wasn't that going to make these princes and princesses furious?

He couldn't help but want to laugh, but he managed to suppress it because of the occasion.

With a loud "smack," a boy next to Ruan Mumu slammed his palm on the table next to her, scattering the plate of pastries all over the floor.

Ruan Mumu initially didn't want to pay attention to these people, but when she saw the food in front of her being thrown on the ground, she stood up, brushed the crumbs off her hands, and then slapped the boy across the face: "Didn't your mother teach you not to waste food? Didn't she teach you 'Every grain of rice on your plate is the result of hard work'?"

The boy, who was slightly older than Ruan Mumu, looked at Ruan Mumu with a surprised expression.

"Do you know that you just hit the Seventh Prince? This princess will exterminate your entire family!" The girl who had just scolded Ruan Mumu rushed forward in a rage, reaching out to slap Ruan Mumu across the face.

Ruan Mumu didn't care whether they were princesses or princes. She reached out and grabbed the girl's hand, then made the girl's hand slap her face.

Liu Shengxu had been observing Emperor Kang Sheng's condition. When he heard the commotion in the main hall and heard Ruan Mumu's voice, he quickly went out of the inner room.

He happened to see his fourth sister rush forward to hit Ruan Mumu.

"Stop, Jingyang, are you out of control?" Liu Shengxu shouted immediately.

To his surprise, Ruan Mumu did not sit idly by and let Princess Jingyang hit her, but instead fought back, causing Princess Jingyang to slap herself in the face.

"Third brother, she hit me."

"Third brother, she hit me."

Two aggrieved voices rang out at the same time, and two pairs of eyes looked at Liu Shengxu with disbelief. One was Princess Jingyang, and the other was the Seventh Prince Liu Shengqin.

"Girl, are you alright? Did they bully you?" Liu Shengxu asked anxiously as he approached Ruan Mumu, wanting to check if she had been beaten.

Before his hand could even touch Ruan Mumu, Qiao Tinghao grabbed his wrist and said in a deep voice, "There's no need to trouble Your Highness. With me here, absolutely no one can bully her."

"Third brother, she bullied us." Princess Jingyang's eyes immediately reddened when she heard that her third brother hadn't stood up for her, and she said aggrievedly.

"Still dare to talk back? Wait until Father wakes up and see how he punishes you." After saying that, Liu Shengxu didn't look at Princess Jingyang again.

He turned his gaze to Ruan Mumu and said softly, "Girl, come with me inside to see my father. He hasn't woken up yet. Is it because he hasn't drunk enough water? Should we give him more?"

Ruan Mumu didn't move, but sat down in the chair next to her and said calmly, "Don't rush, come sit down and rest for a while. That water isn't some kind of magic pill; your body needs time to recover!"

Upon hearing what Ruan Mumu said, Liu Shengxu walked over and sat down on the chair next to her.

Soon, palace maids brought out steaming hot tea and snacks again.

The inner room was now crowded with people. After the concubines, princes and princesses rushed in, everyone except the seventh prince and the fourth princess, Princess Jingyang, who had picked a fight with Ruan Mumu, all rushed into the inner room.

They saw Emperor Kang Sheng lying lifelessly on the bed, while Consort Xiao sat beside him wiping away tears. They all thought the emperor was beyond saving and knelt down in grief.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please wake up!"

"Father, please wake up!"

Hearing the crying, Consort Xiao was so annoyed that she roared, "All of you shut up! If you make any more noise and disturb the Emperor's sleep, I will not let you off easily!"

The concubines, princes, and princesses immediately fell silent under the oppressive power of Consort Xiao.

Just then, Emperor Kang Sheng moved.

Consort Xiao, who had been keeping a close eye on Emperor Kang Sheng, immediately noticed the signs that he was waking up.

"Your Majesty, how are you feeling?" Consort Xiao whispered in Emperor Kang Sheng's ear.

Upon hearing Consort Xiao's voice, Emperor Kangsheng slowly awoke, turned over, and sat up, asking, "My beloved consort, what are you doing here?"

His actions and questions startled Consort Xiao. She quickly checked Emperor Kang Sheng's forehead and, finding that he did not have a fever, said reproachfully, "Your Majesty, you scared me to death."

Consort Xiao looked at the three imperial physicians and said, "Imperial Physician Li, please come and check on His Majesty's health as soon as possible."

Only after receiving instructions from Consort Xiao did Imperial Physician Li dare to step forward and take Emperor Kang Sheng's pulse. As he took the pulse, he murmured to himself, "Excellent, excellent, His Majesty's health has recovered."

Consort Xiao was overjoyed to hear Physician Li's words and grasped Emperor Kang Sheng's large hand, saying, "It is truly a blessing for Bei Sheng that Your Majesty has recovered your health!"

The other concubines, princes, and princesses kneeling in the inner chamber were overjoyed upon hearing this and shouted in unison, "May Your Majesty (Father) enjoy good health and a peaceful and prosperous world forever!"

Liu Shengxu and his companions, who were sitting outside the main hall, were overjoyed when they heard the commotion inside.

“Let’s go see your father,” Ruan Mumu said, standing up.
