"I dare to ask my mother, if there is a person who can fend off poisonous snakes for his son, carry his son across the long river, and lead him to escape the disaster. Regardless of his life, he will not leave and protect his son and run thousands of miles, from Beishan Prefecture to the capital."

"Isn't such kindness worth taking care of her for a few days when she is sick?" The young man was not too excited, but spoke slowly and clearly, and spoke loudly.

"What's more, it was originally a ward in the Imperial Hospital, not a private room for children. If the Queen Mother wanted to hold her accountable today for the so-called affair between a man and a woman, then who among the men and women in the world would dare to take action in the future?

save?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother was speechless, he kowtowed again and said solemnly.

"A man should be upright, and if this matter is to be investigated, it is also the fault of the son. It was the son who made his own decisions out of selfish motives. What crime is she guilty of when she is unconscious? Therefore, I ask the queen mother to punish the son and not to implicate innocent people.

By!"

There was silence in the palace.

Aunt Gui stopped involuntarily when she was halfway through pouring the tea.

"You kid..."

Ji Huirong couldn't say anything else. His eyes were full of distress and relief, "Okay, get up quickly. In the past, when Xue Zhen was around, I couldn't help you. The truth was always the same."

She really didn't know about so many things that happened on the way back to Beishan Prefecture. She only thought that Linlang had prepared the antidote to the epidemic.

And Qiu Bai never mentioned it. Firstly, he didn't want the Queen Mother to worry about what had passed. Secondly, he was afraid of damaging Linlang's reputation. After all, they had been in the same room for many days.

The two of them have been together for such a long time, so it would be fine if word got out to him, but he didn't know how much gossip and trouble it would cause to Linlang.

"You should get up too." Empress Dowager Ji was quite a temperamental person and could wipe her face off. To a certain extent, she was exactly the same as Sang Yu.

"You are a good person. You saved Si'er, which is a great achievement. If you want any reward, just tell me."

"I don't dare, slave."

Even though they had not conspired beforehand, Linlang understood that this was Qiu Bai's attempt to cooperate with her, so she quickly bowed, "For the prince and the queen mother, this is what I should do as a slave. How dare you take the credit?"

Sometimes the boss's opinion is more important than the so-called reward.

Empress Dowager Ji's generosity is quite good for a queen mother. But no matter how good she is, she is still a serious ruler with concepts unique to this era.

"It's really rare for you to have this kind of heart."

Although Linlang said this, Ji Huirong still waved, and Aunt Gui, who had been standing next to her with a transparent background, immediately stepped forward in understanding.

"Go and take out the Ai family's little box."

Aunt Gui worked quickly and quickly. Linlang originally thought that the other party would make a big deal and reward herself with a large amount of gold.

But unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Ji took out a jade hairpin with a clear blue color.

The top is carved into exquisite shapes of small lotus leaves and small lotus pods, which are smart, cute and lifelike.

"This was worn by the previous Shang Zheng. It just so happens that you are turning 15 this year, so the Ai family will give it to you as a gift."

Watching Aunt Gui slowly put the hairpin on the girl, the Queen Mother continued.

"Since Shang Zheng of Shang Food Bureau left, this position has been vacant. Although Deputy Tang Shang temporarily took care of it, he refused to give her a legitimate promotion."

"I just said that I am getting old and I won't be able to work for a few more years before I go back to take care of myself. I want the Ai family to choose someone else. And the one she recommends to the Ai family is you, so don't let the Ai family down."
