Prince Gong was fundamentally still hungry, and Shang Gugu kept a constant watch, giving him no chance to eat snacks or small treats.
By evening, after finishing dinner, Prince Gong was persuaded by Shang Gugu to take a walk in the palace, and he similarly trembled as he returned to his palace.
That night, Prince Gong fell asleep on an empty stomach.
Due to the hunger, he had no energy or mental capacity to ponder why his father had not allowed him to return to Luozhou, nor could he think about Zhou Man's actions.
He fell asleep clutching his stomach and woke up from sheer hunger the next day, realizing he was even hungrier.
Previously, he hadn't paid much attention to Zhou Man's talk of healing, but now he was deeply troubled by it, feeling completely tormented.
