The Sheng family was not big, so when the maid came to find her, Lin Sushuang was sitting on a chair outside the house tending to the flowers and plants.

When I learned that it was Mo Lan and Zhao Ceying who were here, I suppressed the excitement in my heart. At the same time, I felt confused. They clearly just came yesterday, why did they come again.

Although she was confused, Lin Sushuang still greeted him neatly.

"Come in." Zhao Ceying took a quick look, said hello, left Lin Qige, and turned around to go to Chang Feng's house.

He and Ruichu had only met once or twice, and had never spoken to each other. They would definitely be unable to talk to each other when they went to the house, but he and Chang Feng could always exchange a few words with each other.

Lin Sushuang looked back and saw someone standing behind Mo Lan. She was timid. When she saw her, her eyes lit up slightly. It was Ruichu.

She didn't expect to see Rui Chu again, and when she did meet again, she would already be the princess.

As soon as they met Ruichu, she asked the maid to present the brocade box. The hairpins and bracelets inside were extremely exquisite, and they were all given to Lin Sushuang.

Lin Sushuang did not refuse and asked Zhou Xueniang to accept the things.

A little girl, not as thoughtful as an old lady.

Since I was giving her something and thanking her, why didn't she give the little girl a step down?

Lin Sushuang lamented in her heart that Rui Chu had a good life, but also lamented that she risked her life to give away these fatal things regardless of her own life.

She is a person who cherishes her life. If such a great opportunity were placed in front of her, she would not dare to ask herself, so she admires it.

At the same time, she also heard Brother Feng tell what happened that day.

If it weren't for Brother Feng, she might not be able to get out of the city gate.

Fortunately, I met Brother Feng.

Lin Sushuang was also grateful to Ruichu. If she hadn't passed away like that, Brother Feng wouldn't have achieved such success. Reluo and Ruichu started chatting.

Mo Lan sat on the edge and smiled, then looked away slightly.

After the two of them finished talking, Ruichu came out of Linqi Pavilion one step ahead. This time when he came to Sheng Mansion, he also wanted to meet the eldest lady of Sheng Mansion.

The sun was setting in the west, and it was time to return home. As soon as Ruichu left, Mo Lan caught up with him.

"Is there something wrong with Princess Huan?" Rui Chu's tone was very slow.

Mo Lan handed over the box in her hand, "This is the peace charm that my little mother obtained for the princess a few days ago. Wear it every day to ensure safety. It was blessed by Taoist Priest Yuqingguan. The princess left just now. I was in such a hurry that I forgot about it for a moment. She only remembered it after telling me and asked me to deliver it quickly.”

The peace blessing is tied with a red string and placed in a brocade box. Smelling the fragrance carefully makes people feel indescribably comfortable.

Ruichu grabbed it, held it in her hand, and shyly thanked her.

"Go back quickly. According to the nun who is serving the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will summon you tomorrow."

There were only a few princesses in the palace, and they were not very close to the Queen Mother. Instead, there was Ruichu, who used to serve the officials. The Queen Mother was nostalgic and always liked to recruit Ruichu into the palace and talk about the past over and over again.

Now that the goal is clear, Mo Lan should take action against the Queen Mother as early as possible, and this Ping An Fu is a part of it.

She exchanged soul points for the system. It would not harm a person's lifespan, nor would it shorten it. It would just make people weak and mentally weak.

Moreover, Queen Mother Cao is only a minor character in the dungeon, so it would be cheap to just target her.

It's a good deal to solve such trouble at a cheap price.

The most important thing is that the imperial doctor cannot find out, and it happens that Empress Dowager Cao is lying on the bed. At that time, the imperial doctor will only think that missing the late emperor is a disease and the condition is getting worse.

More than ten days later, there was news in the palace that the Queen Mother's condition had worsened, and she even fainted during the morning court session.

The Queen Mother wondered in her heart that she was a little weak before, but at least she was in good health.

Now when I hear the political affairs from the minister's mouth, my head feels swollen and I am too weak to listen to anything.

The imperial doctors who treated her were all his confidants, and there was absolutely no possibility of bribery from the officials and the queen.

She asked the imperial doctor to check again and again, but there was still no problem... It was the imperial doctor she trusted most who spoke up and diagnosed her with excessive worry.

After going to court several times with a sick body, she was still exhausted... Empress Dowager Cao did not want to accept her fate, but unfortunately she had a bad body and bones, so she had to accept her fate.

If this continues, it's not worth risking your own life.

Similarly, she was also observing Zhao Zongquan's expression, language and actions when he went to court. Although he did not have the benevolent style of the late emperor, it was not absurd.

Rather than continue to listen to politics behind the curtain and waste your life.

It's better to give the new emperor power. Delegation of power will be a matter of time anyway. It's better to sell it while you still have the energy, and at the same time consolidate the power at hand - the Cao family. As long as the official family makes any stupid move, they can stop the loss in time.

Empress Dowager Cao asked her chamberlain to bring the jade seal and gave it to Zhao Zongquan. She told him with tears in her eyes. Seeing Zhao Zongquan's grateful face, she got back to the topic.

"Now that my health is not good, I am afraid that I will follow the late emperor. I have no interest in government affairs. What I worry about the most are my brothers. They should keep my face in mind and hope that the officials will treat them well. "

Zhao Zongquan immediately knelt down and kept replying. He felt in his heart that the Queen Mother was really well off from this illness, and there was a panic on his face, "My eldest empress, thanks to you in the past few days, I have been able to intimidate the ministers below. Without you, I am really scared.”

Empress Dowager Cao held Zhao Zongquan's shoulders and couldn't help but sigh when she saw the darkness in his eyes. Since she was mentally weak, she could understand the pain in this official's heart.

As people reach their later years, they become more compassionate.

There are no important ministers from the previous dynasty who came from Yuzhou. The only ones who can be trusted are the old ministers he brought from Yuzhou. Likewise, he cannot promote those old ministers too much. The ministers in Beijing will object.

It's just that compared to Zhao Zongquan, she still likes Yong Wang Xie more. He still lacks something, there is so much that Empress Dowager Cao doesn't know where to start.

"I'll be there for another two days and help you again."

Zhao Zongquan knelt on the ground, "Thank you so much, Madam."

Empress Dowager Cao gave a rare warning. "You should go back first, political matters are important."

Zhao Zongquan saw that it was not a test and that the Queen Mother really wanted to delegate power. Holding the jade seal in her hand, she turned over the old account and there was no need to dig back for the signs that had been discovered earlier.

It's just that this disease came so strangely, so strangely that God was helping him.

He once asked the imperial doctor who treated the Queen Mother, and the illness was not serious. It was mostly heart disease, which made her feel weak and tired easily. It was better to rest and rest. Only then was the Queen Mother willing to delegate the power.

What if the Queen Mother recovers from her illness that day and sets her sights on this jade seal again?

Zhao Zongquan couldn't help but shook his head. It was probably not that time. Empress Dowager Cao gave him a chance to have full wings. At that time, she wanted to see if she had the ability to get it.
