Chapter 1151 If you are fond of me, then breathe five times.
There must be spies of the Empress Dowager outside the Imperial Study.
The details I mentioned unintentionally were just meant to make her understand that nothing can escape the other person's eyes.
In other words, the theft was discovered.
But the Empress Dowager didn't mention it, which means it can continue.
Song Jinhuan found a sliver of solace.
Granny Zhang returned to the palace with the scriptures and, at the Empress Dowager's signal, handed them to Song Jinhuan.
The girl obediently accepted it without asking why.
The Empress Dowager rubbed her temples and asked softly, "Ah Qiong, do you know why I sent you to deliver the scriptures?"
How did she know!
What scriptures does Elder Xuan not have?
Moreover, the Lin faction and the Xuanhe faction are fundamentally at odds.
The only possibility is that the Emperor has been suppressing Prime Minister Lin in recent days.
After pondering for a moment, Song Jinhuan couldn't help but ask, "But... what happened to the Lin family?"
The girl's almond-shaped eyes were clear and bright, sparkling as she looked over.
These are eyes full of life.
They were not tainted by scheming, numbness, or exhaustion.
The Empress Dowager was momentarily stunned; how long ago was it that she too had been so full of energy?
Receiving no answer, Song Jinhuan thought for a moment and asked directly, "Empress Dowager, is there anything I need you to do on this trip?"
The Empress Dowager came to her senses, feeling quite helpless. If she really wanted to do something, how could she speak frankly?
If someone had grown up around that greedy old man Lin Zhi, they probably would have understood immediately.
"Alright, alright, just go ahead and deliver the scriptures." The Empress Dowager's headaches had flared up again these past few days, especially when dealing with the headstrong young girl, her headaches became even more severe.
Okay then.
Song Jinhuan curtsied and withdrew from the hall.
Granny Zhang had watched the Empress Dowager grow up since she was a child. Seeing her troubled, she couldn't help but smile and say, "Why should the Empress Dowager worry? The Lin family has two legitimate daughters and four illegitimate daughters, all of whom are beautiful and skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and prose."
"In comparison, Ah-Qiong has no other strengths except for her beautiful handwriting."
With her straightforward and outspoken nature, if you simply tell her what to do, she'll probably spill everything the moment she gets to that person and they ask why.
The Empress Dowager gasped, then suddenly realized, "It's not impossible!"
Seeing this, Granny Zhang stuffed the warm tea into her hand and said, "Let everything take its natural course."
The Empress Dowager pondered for a moment, then said, "I am unwell."
With a smile, Granny Zhang asked, "Do you wish to invite a few younger relatives to come and show their filial piety to you?"
Empress Dowager: "Very well."
Granny Zhang: "Alright, this old servant will go to the Lin residence."
Song Jinhuan was merely more cautious in the palace and restrained his curiosity, but he never expected to be seen as a brainless and straightforward person.
However, at this moment, her mind was drawn to the commotion outside the palace.
Stalls were set up on both sides of the official road, and the shouts of vendors could be heard all around.
Song Jinhuan peeked through a corner of the window, gazing at the food and trinkets along the roadside, and the row of shops behind the stalls, her heart yearning to go shopping.
The Empress Dowager didn't set a time for her to return to the palace; it's just sending a scripture, so it won't take long!
There will definitely be time to go shopping then.
The Xuan Mansion is located on West Street, with two majestic lions standing at the entrance.
Song Jinhuan explained his purpose, and the guards went to inform him. Not long after, the steward arrived quickly.
The young woman presented the wooden box to the steward and said, “Grand Master Xuan has caught a cold. The Empress Dowager is worried and has specially ordered me to come here to present the Medicine Buddha Sutra. I hope Grand Master Xuan will recover soon.”
Has the master caught a cold?
Why did he know nothing about it?
Suppressing his doubts, the steward said kindly, "The master is in the mansion. Please come with me, young lady."
