Wen Congrui awoke with his face ashen, his head splitting and, to make things worse, someone beside him sobbing softly.
"Stop crying!" Wen Congrui waved his hand irritably; his head felt as if it were about to explode.
Lan Shu, seeing him awake, hurriedly got up and chided, "Master should not have drunk such strong liquor; how can your body withstand it!"
Wen Congrui, out of patience, said, "Go brew some light soup."
Lan Shu noticed his irritation and dared not speak further; she called Nan Shan to look after him and left quickly.
Listening to Nan Shan relate how he had fallen before Ah Jiu, Wen Congrui's face grew even more unsightly.
At the same time, Ah Jiu also opened her eyes, faring no better than Wen Congrui, feeling as if her head was about to burst. With a painful groan, she called for someone in a hoarse voice.
Xiao Li entered, bowed deeply, and asked, "Has Your Highness awakened?"
"Water!"
