The next day after Su Nanting returned to the capital, after the morning court session, she went to see the emperor and told him about the dangers in the palace. With tears in his eyes, he said, "Your Majesty, I am just a country girl who knows nothing. If I offend the master in the palace, I will suffer the consequences."
"Your Majesty, I only have this one daughter. I lost her more than ten years ago and finally found her. If anything goes wrong, my wife will not be able to survive, and I will not be able to survive either."
The emperor rolled his eyes at the Marquis of Anchang, who was pretending to wipe his tears in front of him, and sneered, "Could it be that my palace is a flood or a beast that frightened you so much?"
Su Nanting stopped crying, straightened his back, and whispered, "You are a flood or a beast, but you don't know what's happening. You have been poisoned, and you don't even know who did it."
The emperor was furious and pointed at Su Nanting, "I gave you face, didn't I?"
As he said this, he wanted to hit Su Nanting with something on the table. Su Nanting did not dodge, "Hey, if you tell the truth now, you will be beaten. Then I will tell lies from now on."
The emperor laughed in anger. "Isn't it just to make a talisman for your daughter? Is there any need to be so angry with me? Humph, considering your recent merits, I won't bother with you."
"You can think of it, but I can't think of it?" Others were kind enough to help him detoxify, so he couldn't let them bully him. The emperor took out a small token from his pocket and threw it to Su Nanting, "Take it."
Su Nanting caught it, and seeing the golden token, his face broke into a smile. He quickly put it in his arms, fearing that the emperor would change his mind. He knelt down to express his gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
He added, "I am doing this so that Linlang can detoxify you and recover as soon as possible. You are the king of a country, and your health is related to the stability of the country. You cannot be careless. Detoxify as soon as possible and you will feel at ease as soon as possible."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. My daughter's medical skills are well-known to all. She recently cured a girl with a tumor on her neck and is now staying by her side to serve her."
The emperor knew that Rong Linlang had spotted the poison that the imperial doctors couldn't detect, so he had to investigate Rong Linlang's medical skills. This investigation reassured the emperor that the girl's medical skills were truly remarkable. The medicines produced by her workshop were all top-notch, and other clinics were envious.
And the medicine for injuries she developed can be said to be a miracle medicine.
The emperor was very confident in Linlang's medical skills and said, "Please arrange a time for Linlang to enter the palace."
The emperor's study and bedroom were checked and nothing was poisoned. He was very confused as to how the other party had poisoned him without his knowledge.
If we find him, we will tear him into pieces.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. Once they are settled, I will immediately find an opportunity to bring my daughter to the palace." Mission accomplished, Su Nanting wanted only to slip away and find his daughter. "I will take my leave."
The emperor was disgusted by her daughter-servant appearance and said, "Go away."
Looking at Su Nanting's back as he left happily, the emperor sighed. Marquis Anchang was a killing god on the battlefield, but when he returned home, he was afraid of his mother and doted on his wife. Now he is a daughter slave and likes to cry.
The more he looked at him, the more conflicted the emperor felt. If he told anyone that a general was like this, no one would believe him. However, the more flaws he had, the more confident he was in using him. He had so many handles that anyone could use to manipulate him.
The emperor envied Su Nanting, whose life was simple, he was either on the battlefield or at home. Although there was some noise at home, everyone was sincere towards him. Unlike him, his harem was full of evil spirits, all with ulterior motives, just waiting to kill him and take over.
To be honest, he was quite envious of Su Nanting.
Su Nanting sneezed and covered the token tightly, fearing that the emperor would change his mind. "Hurry, hurry back to the palace."
Returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Su Nanting showed the precious token to Song Shi, "Shiyin, look, this golden token was given to Linlang by the Emperor. Now, if anyone dares to mess with our daughter, she can kill them first and report to the Emperor later."
"The Emperor is truly willing to go to great lengths to save his own life." Song stroked the token and said anxiously, "There's no time to lose. Let's send it to Linlang first."
"Don't worry, Madam. I have already made all the arrangements. Just enjoy your lunch and rest for a while, and then you will be able to see your daughter."
Su Nanting whispered a few words into Song's ear, "Everything has been arranged over there. It's a good opportunity to buy you and your daughter some clothes and jewelry."
Since he adopted his daughter, Su Nanting hadn't bought her anything, so he decided to dress up his wife and daughter well.
Song's worry for the past few days finally settled down. A smile appeared on her face as she thought about how to dress her daughter. "Then ask Shanshan to come along. With her by her side, others won't suspect anything."
When she was in the capital, Song rarely went shopping. She would have her clothes and jewelry made to order by a silver shop, or a cloth shop would send a female craftswoman to her house to tailor the pieces. This time, if she went shopping in the capital, those gossipy eyes would definitely be on her.
Su Nanting smiled and said, "I will send someone to fetch Hu Shan right away."
As long as his wife and daughter are happy, he can do anything and will be happy.
Linlang soon received a letter via carrier pigeon, asking her mother to meet her at Yuyifang, and Hu Shan would also be there.
Rong Yi prepared a carriage, and Linlang dressed up a little, changed her clothes, and set off with reed flowers and some extra money, so that they could also go out and see the world.
The carriage stopped at the door of Yuyifang. Linlang got off the carriage and looked at the busy traffic on the road. There were already many carriages parked next to Yuyifang, and many ladies and young ladies came to shop.
Linlang arrived at the door, and the waitress came out with a smile on her face. "Welcome, ma'am. Is this your first time in our store?"
Linlang nodded, and the waitress continued, "Madam, downstairs are all kinds of clothes and fabrics. Feel free to browse around. If you need any help, just let us know. Upstairs are gold and silver jewelry and private rooms. After you've looked at the clothes, you can choose a few to match them with. It will look even better."
Yuyifang is very good at doing business. They don't judge people by their appearance and treat their customers with absolute respect and enthusiasm. No wonder their business is so booming.
Linlang thanked the waitress and said, "Let me take a look myself first."
"Okay, Madam, feel free to look around. If you need anything, call me."
Linlang said to Luhua and Yuqian, "Take a look. If you like anything, buy it. Don't worry about the money. I'll give it to you."
Luhua and Yuqian didn't dare choose. The maid next to them had just checked out the bill, and a bolt of cloth cost several hundred taels of silver—far too expensive for them to wear. But the fabrics here were truly beautiful, and the styles of clothing were unavailable even in Guliang County. Even if they didn't buy, they could still feast their eyes on it.
Linlang bought two bolts of cloth, and since the weather was getting colder, she made a set of thin coats for Rongyi, Amu, and Moer. She also bought a few more bolts for the two martial arts masters and the two maids.
Even though this was not a very good piece of cloth, Linlang spent three hundred taels of silver. After having two maids deliver the cloth to the carriage, the master and his servants went upstairs.
