"What? The Queen Mother is leaving the palace?" Dongfang Xunyi raised his head from the pile of memorials and asked with narrowed eyes.
The old emperor passed away suddenly, leaving behind a lot of mess.
Dongfang Xunyi had just ascended the throne a few days ago and had only just begun to slowly take over the country's affairs.
Ever since he came out of Li Xia’s dormitory that night.
Dongfang Xunyi had not appeared in front of her for several days.
However, he would still send someone to pay his respects to Li Xia on his behalf every day.
Dongfang Xunyi did this not because he really regarded her as an elder, but because most people in the palace were snobbish.
The status of Queen Mother Li Xia in the palace is rather awkward.
There are so many eyes watching you in the palace, it all depends on your attitude towards her.
If he had just let her fend for herself in the palace.
Those palace servants will naturally flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
Xiao Luzi blinked and replied, "That's what the maidservant beside the Empress Dowager said. It seems that it was because the Empress Dowager's father, the father-in-law of the general's mansion, wanted to take a concubine. According to the rules, the Empress Dowager does have to go back."

Dongfang Xunyi looked dissatisfied.

"I understand, Xiao Luzi, you pass on my oral instructions and arrange a royal guard to accompany the empress dowager back. You must ensure the empress dowager's safety." Dongfang Xunyi instructed carefully.
"I obey your orders."
Xiao Luzi nodded.

The general's mansion on the other side.
Chen waited for a reply from Mudan, and along with the letter came a black pill.
She put the pills away, stood up and walked towards a remote courtyard in the mansion.
“Knock knock knock—”
"who?"
Chen knocked on the door and a pleasant male voice came from inside the room.
The teenager was more alert.
"It's me." Chen said.
“Squeak—”
"My lady is here."
The door was opened from the inside, and a handsome young man walked out.
He nodded towards Chen.
"Get ready tonight."
"yes."
She didn't say much, and the boy didn't ask too many questions. The two of them seemed to have already agreed on it and had a tacit understanding.
Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I just came here to tell you that there will be a happy event at the mansion tonight, and no one will notice the movement here. I will send someone over, so be careful and don't hurt her."
She gave some instructions.
