The empress was also helpless. Who told this dynasty to put filial piety first?

Even if he was a rich scholar, no one would dare to use his reputation as an unfilial son, let alone the fact that he was part of the royal family. Naturally, he had to set an example for all the people of the world.

There was also a special resident in the palace who was responsible for recording the Emperor's every word and action. Sometimes, he would even stare at the harem. If anything unbecoming is seen by the saloon, it will be recorded in the history book!

Moreover, these living men were a bunch of old-fashioned people. They were straightforward and would not delete their records even if they were to die, which gave the emperors a headache.

The Murong Jie family couldn't do anything about the matter. The matter of Emperor Xian hastily ascending the throne before he was even buried had already been gossiped about by the scholars. They could only restore their reputation with Lin Shushuang's filial piety.

The empress had originally planned to spend another two days in leisure time, but she kept Lin Shuqiang dry for fear of being told off by others. As for Xianning, she was worried too, so she took the imperial physician to Phoenix Perching Palace in the afternoon.

"Muhou, are you feeling better?" The Queen wiped away her tears.

Lin Shu Qian leaned weakly on the soft cushion, her expression dispirited.

"It's nothing. I just feel uncomfortable. I'll be fine in a few days." Lin Shu sighed with a face full of 'I hate the world'.

"Muhou, are you here today?" The empress cautiously asked. She herself would be in a bad mood for a few days, so maybe the empress dowager was in for a reason as well.

Lin Shu lightly nodded her head, changing her position from the left side to the right side.

The empress felt that she'd found out the cause of the disease. "Then I'll have the imperial physician prescribe some medicine for mother's blood."

Lin Shu raised her eyelids, seeing that the empress was fine, she felt that this person was too perfunctory.

"Sigh ~ ~ ~" With a heavy sigh, Lin Shuqian extended his hand to support his forehead, "Recently, I've been dreaming, so why don't I prescribe some medicine to calm my mind?"

"The Queen Mother misses you …" The empress was halfway through her words when she swallowed back the words that had almost escaped her lips. "Do you miss your family?"

"En!" This time, Lin Shuqian nodded his head. The empress had finally hit the nail on the head.

The empress probingly asked, "Then why don't we invite Lady Xu to the palace again?"

Lin Shushang hastily shook his head. He had angered her the last time Lin Si Lan entered the palace. Now that she was in a bad mood, he didn't want to argue with her.

"This Dowager wishes to meet Madam Lin." Of course, this Madam Lin was Lin Shu Qian's mother.

The empress hesitated. "Then I'll go back and arrange it. But the palace's been busy lately, so I can't spare myself. Perhaps I'll have to wait a few more days."

Lin Shushang: "?"

Queen, you've changed, you weren't like this before, you sent me whatever I wanted right away.

Lin Shushuang clutched her chest, looking as if she was grieving over something.

"Imperial Mother, I could have been busy, but that child XiuNing forgot to eat and sleep, and his body was damaged. I had to take care of her, which was why I couldn't get away from her."

Lin Shushang understood that the empress was negotiating conditions with her.

In any case, she would still have plenty of opportunities to target Murong Xianning in the future.

Lin Shushang immediately gave him an excuse, "Since that's the case, let her not copy it. It's fine if she is filial. If not, I would not be able to explain myself to the late emperor. "

The empress beamed when she saw Lin Shushang's words. "Then I'll thank Imperial Mother on behalf of Xianning. Imperial Mother, please take care of your health. Tomorrow, I'll invite Madam Lin to the palace to speak with you."

The next day at noon, Madam Lin entered the palace. The two of them first hugged each other and cried for a while, before coaxing the palace maids out so they could talk about their own things.

Two hours later, Madam Lin walked out of the Phoenix Perching Palace with swollen eyes, heading back to the Lin Clan.
