The matters within the State Duke Zhao Manor did not spark any desire in Manbao to speak externally. To her, it was a trivial matter that she reported immediately and thus needed not be overly concerned.
Within the State Duke Zhao Manor, everyone from the heir's wife to the sixth wife was reprimanded directly or indirectly because of the incident, so the manor wouldn't discuss it externally either.
Hence, initially, the outside world really didn't know.
Manbao went out twice more and treated the State Duchess Zhao's illness to about seventy to eighty percent recovery. What remained was to relax, rely on dietary health, occasionally use acupuncture for maintenance, and no longer consume medicinal decoctions.
Thus, Manbao started focusing on matters at the imperial estate, occasionally taking half-days off to treat Wang Ruile.
But just then, news reached the palace.
