Rong Ying emphasized the last phrase, "cured," making the sorcerer's eyes even more uneasy, and he became even more hesitant to speak of any evil spirits.
If the emperor himself has sent a blessing in a dream, and he still speaks of evil spirits, wouldn't that be spreading heresy and insulting the late emperor?
Empress Dowager Zheng couldn't tell whether the bronze tripod was real or fake, but Jing Huaixu's joy didn't seem like an act.
She didn't know if Empress Dowager Cheng's illness was real or not, but she knew that Empress Dowager Cheng was anxious because she couldn't send Cheng Suyun into the Eastern Palace, so she specially asked someone to politely discuss cooperation.
