The female cannon fodder in the book, the villain instantly turned into a pitiful and coquettish gir

Hear the sound of the strings and understand the elegant meaning.

Eunuch Yu instantly understood the old emperor's intention, and a sly smile broke out on his wrinkled face, like an old fox.

"Your Majesty, your plan is really brilliant! Why don't we use this jade pendant to 'save the country in a roundabout way'? Instead of giving it directly to His Royal Highness Prince Chen, we have to make him 'voluntarily' accept it."

The old emperor's eyes lit up and he couldn't help laughing, "Eunuch Yu, you are really smart! Tell me about it quickly."

Eunuch Yu moved closer and lowered his voice.

"Your Majesty, we can find an opportunity, such as at a banquet, to let this jade pendant 'accidentally' roll to the feet of His Royal Highness Prince Chen, and then you can 'pretend' to be surprised and say that this is a treasure you collected many years ago and are willing to give it to someone who is destined to have it.

In this case, even if His Royal Highness Prince Chen doesn't want to accept it, he has to accept it for your sake!"

The old emperor nodded frequently, but his brows were twisted into a ball of twine, becoming tighter and tighter, as if they could pinch a fly to death.

He glared at Eunuch Yu, a teasing smile on his face.

"Your idea sounds great, but it's a pity that brains are a good thing, but you, an old man, don't have it.

The wicked son of Prince Chen is now thousands of miles away in Hushui County. How can you ask him to come and receive the jade pendant?"

Eunuch Yu was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red. He scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

"Alas, Your Majesty, look at my memory. How could I have forgotten this matter? However, we can think of a way to let that evil boy come back to claim the reward himself!"

The old emperor raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Oh? What's your trick?"

Eunuch Yu smiled smugly, leaned close to the old emperor's ear and whispered an explanation.

"Your Majesty, we can use the Queen Mother's name to write a letter to His Royal Highness Prince Chen, saying that she misses her grandson and asks him to return to Beijing to visit him as soon as possible.

His Royal Highness Prince Chen is a filial man and will certainly rush back to the capital. At that time, Your Majesty can take the opportunity to give him this jade pendant, wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?"

The old emperor couldn't help but laugh when he heard Eunuch Yu's suggestion: "Great! Great! Eunuch Yu, your brain has finally opened up! Let's do this, I will ask someone to write a letter to Prince Chen and take the jade pendant with him!"

Not long after, Prince Chen Ling Chenyu received a heavy family letter from a messenger from the palace, signed by the Empress Dowager who had lived in Huguo Temple for a long time.

When Prince Chen opened the envelope, a warm feeling surged in his heart, as if he felt the Queen Mother's care from afar.

He raised the corner of his mouth, took off the jade pendant that he always wore around his waist, and replaced it with the one given by the Queen Mother.

Speaking of the Empress Dowager, she is truly a rare and remarkable figure.

She was honored as the empress dowager only because she supported the current emperor to ascend the throne.

As a result, the Empress Dowager moved to the Huguo Temple as soon as she ascended the throne, where she spent her days surrounded by green lamps and ancient Buddhas, and would only return to Beijing to show her face during the Chinese New Year.

However, in recent years, perhaps because of my advanced age and difficulty walking, I rarely come back even for the Chinese New Year.

Ling Chenyu was very grateful to the Queen Mother because when he was a child, the Queen Mother had extended a helping hand to him when he was most helpless.

At that time, he was like a small boat drifting in the wind and rain, and the Queen Mother was the warm lighthouse that pointed him in the direction.

So, when the Queen Mother presented him the jade pendant, he wore it without hesitation, as if he was wearing a heavy promise and gratitude.

Now, Prince Chen Ling Chenyu replaced the jade pendant, his heart filled with respect and longing for the Queen Mother.

Your Majesty the Queen Mother, although you are usually quiet, you can always bring surprises and warmth to people at critical moments.

Just like this jade pendant, although it is not ostentatious, it contains deep emotions and blessings.

Ling Chenyu carefully put away the jade pendant he had replaced, preparing to find an opportunity to return the gift to the Empress Dowager.

After Ling Chenyu dealt with the matter of the jade pendant, he forgot about it.

He completed the heavy task of disaster relief, and like a bird freed from its fetters, he couldn't wait to find his sweetheart, Liu Yaoyao.

In order to convince King En to let him go, Ling Chenyu tried his best to persuade him. His eloquent tongue was like a torrent of water, endless.

Finally, after Ling Chenyu's repeated requests, King En nodded helplessly, agreeing to his request.

Ling Chenyu happily began to pack his luggage and prepared to embark on his journey home.

However, just as he had almost finished packing and was about to step out of the room, he suddenly felt dizzy, his body went limp, and he fell to the ground.

This scene scared the shadow guards nearby so much that they rushed out like lightning and surrounded Ling Chenyu with terrified looks on their faces.

"My Lord, what happened to you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ling Chenyu lay on the ground, barely opening his eyes, and saw a group of shadow guards surrounding him. A helpless smile appeared on his face.

He waved his hands and said weakly, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after a rest."

The shadow guards looked at each other, feeling confused.

They knew that Ling Chenyu was a strong man and rarely got sick, so how could he suddenly faint?

Could it be that the disaster relief mission was too heavy and exhausted his body?

The shadow guards decided to help Ling Chenyu back to his room to rest first, and then find a doctor to check on him.

They carefully helped Ling Chenyu back to the room, laid him on the bed, and then sent someone to call a doctor.

After a while, the doctor arrived.

He felt Ling Chenyu's pulse, then shook his head and said, "Your Highness was overworked and restless, which led to his sudden fainting. But it's nothing serious. As long as he rests well for a few days and takes some medicine, he will recover."

The shadow guards breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked the doctor.

After they settled the doctor, they stayed by Ling Chenyu's bed, keeping an eye on his condition.

Ling Chenyu, although lying on the bed, his heart was surging.

He knew he couldn't fall down like this, he still had important things to do and important people to meet.

He endured the discomfort in his body, struggled to sit up, and said to the shadow guards: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry. I'm going to find Liu Yaoyao now, don't stop me."

The shadow guards looked at each other, but when they saw Ling Chenyu's determined eyes, they knew they couldn't stop him.

They had no choice but to follow Ling Chenyu silently and protect him as he went to Liu Yaoyao's residence.
