The original plan was for the empress dowager to mourn for three days before the spirit of the late emperor, but the first day she cried herself senseless, so naturally she didn't go for the next two days.

If she let Lin Shu Qian bury Mu Rong Ping for three days, she would definitely die from anger.

Every day, Lin Shu Qian would lie in bed and soak in the hot spring. The hot spring here actually had the effect of nourishing one's looks, and these few days, Lin Shu Qian's skin had become even whiter and more tender.

Lin Shushang even began to plan for the future of the palace. If the palace got bored, he might as well find an excuse to pay homage to the late emperor and soak in a hot spring.

It was obviously going to the grave, but Lin Shu Qian treated it as a vacation.

But the empress dowager could not leave the palace for long. After resting for a few more days, the palace maid told her that it was time to return.

Lin Shu took a bite of the green bamboo shoot, unwilling to part with it.

When the Seventh Prince came over, he still looked like he was crazy. It was still raining outside, and he was barefoot and his hair was loose, leaving water stains on the marble tiles.

"Empress Dowager, come back to play when you have time!"

Lin Shu played her part very seriously. "Seventh Prince, I'm not here to play. I'm here to pay tribute to the late emperor."

"To pay homage to the late emperor …" Seventh Marquis lowered his head, his voice tinged with sadness. "My father is dead …"

Lin Shuqian almost rolled his eyes. Aren't you happy that your father is dead?

Just as he was about to shed a few tears, Mu Rong Hong's expression changed. He was overjoyed.

"My royal father didn't die, he ate my immortal pills and became a god!"

With that, Mu Rong Hong took out a medicine bottle and gave it to Lin Shuqian, "This is my immortal pill, even if the empress dowager eats it, she will still become a god."

Lingxi jumped in fright as she leaned close to Lin Shushang and whispered in his ear, "Empress, was the late emperor poisoned to death by the Seventh Prince …"

Of course not, Mu Rong Ping had been angered to death by her.

Lin Shushuang comforted Lingxi with her gaze. "Seventh Prince, I accept your kind intentions."

"Hehehe …" "Then I'll go back and concoct pills, I want to become a deity too!" Mu Rong Hong didn't say anything as he left the hall.

Lin Shu Qian looked at Mu Rong Hong's crazy back view. Mu Rong Hong seemed to have always called her 'Empress Dowager', while the other princes and royal daughters of Mu Rong Ping all called him 'Queen Mother'.

In the hearts of others, pretending to be filial and filial was the most important thing. Thus, when facing Lin Shushang who was not yet twenty, he could still shout 'mother's stepmother' at her.

In Mu Rong Hong's heart, only the original queen was his mother.

No wonder Mu Rong Hong was pretending to be crazy, he really didn't fit in with this world.

He might seem like a lunatic, but he was probably a normal person. As for those who looked normal, they were actually crazy.

Lin Shu Qian kept the medicine that Mu Rong Hong had given her, and got onto the Phoenix Carriage.

She was going back to the world of madmen.

"..."

The weather today seemed to reflect Lin Shuqiang's mood. It drizzled continuously, and the ground was a little muddy. The person carrying the imperial carriage was very careful, afraid that the empress dowager would be thrown to the ground. That was a crime to lose one's head.

Lin Shu sat on the Phoenix Chariot, looking at the long procession with a very complex feeling in his heart.

She hadn't noticed when she came out, but now she realized how exaggerated her manner was. It's only been ten days, and it's been like moving.

Lin Shushang even started to suspect that Murong Jie was trying to pull some kind of enmity towards her. When that happened, everyone would call the empress dowager extravagant and wasteful, and there would be no time to call him lecherous and lecherous.

How insidious.

Although the way back to the capital was also an official road, it was still outside the city, so the road conditions were not as good as the city's. It was raining again today, so the group of people walked really slowly, afraid of falling down.

Lin Shuqiang sat in the emperor carriage for a long time. Even though he had a cushion under his feet, he still felt uncomfortable and panicked. He asked the group to stop and get ready to stretch their muscles and bones.

It was all due to the fact that she had been soaking in the hot spring for the past few days.

Lin Shu dismounted from the emperor's carriage, only to see a misty rain falling. The scene before her eyes was akin to a painting made of ink, giving her a sense of artistic conception.

Lin Shushang took a deep breath. Just as he was thinking about the two lines that could express his feelings, he heard an angry shout coming from the forest behind him.

"Empress Dowager Doggie!" Give me your life! "

Lin Shu Qian: "?" Who are you calling a dog?!
