齐燕刚把人参炖汤喝下去，暖洋洋的顺着喉咙滑下去，感觉浑身舒畅。这汤味道确实不错，比宫里的常用药材强多了。她舒服地靠在软塌上，眯着眼回味了一下，心里琢磨着下次要不要多囤点这玩意儿。

正 Enjoying the warmth, a sudden commotion broke out outside her chambers. The eunuchs and maids rushed in, breathless, their faces pale as paper.

"Your Majesty, it's the dragon king!" one of them stammered, pointing a trembling finger towards the door.

齐燕 sat up straight, her eyes widening in surprise. The dragon king? She knew the royal family had a tradition of worshipping sea gods, but she never expected one to actually show up. She quickly composed herself, recalling the emperor's warning about not causing trouble. After all, she was still in the process of winning his favor.

With a calm demeanor, she stood up and walked towards the door, her mind racing with possibilities. What if this was an opportunity to prove her worth and gain the emperor's respect? She took a deep breath and opened the door, her eyes meeting the dragon king's majestic gaze.
