"You didn't agree, you didn't agree..." The Queen Mother took two steps back in anger. She had been very irritable recently and had trouble sleeping. At this moment, she was so angry that she lost her mind. Blood and anger rushed to her head and she started coughing violently: "Cough cough cough... cough cough cough, cough cough cough!"
Eunuch Bai supported the Queen Mother. A trace of worry flashed in Helan Ruizhe's eyes, but it did not go away.
He stood there holding Jin Suting's hand tightly, afraid that she would leave if he wasn't paying attention.
The Queen Mother's mood gradually calmed down. She was aware of her own body and didn't want to argue with Helan Ruizhe anymore.
So she walked past him, past the stunned Jin Suting, and walked into the hall, led by Eunuch Bai.
For a moment, Jin Suting actually felt that the figure of the Queen Mother was a little lonely.
"It's not good for us to do this."
Helan Ruizhe lowered his eyes and said, "But I don't want to wrong you, nor do I want to pretend to agree to grandma."
Because the love that has been expressed cannot be concealed.
"You go and see the Queen Mother. I can go back first." Jin Suting thought that she came here just to see if Helan Ruizhe was okay. Now that he woke up, she could go back with peace of mind.
"No," Helan Ruizhe refused decisively. "Since we have agreed that you will be my Crown Princess, then this day will inevitably come. An ugly daughter-in-law still has to meet her parents-in-law. Besides, grandma is actually very easy to get along with. It's just that her prejudice affects her judgment."
Jin Suting nodded: "Yes."
So the result was that when Helan Ruizhe walked into the hall holding Jin Suting's hand, the Queen Mother turned her back and looked like she didn't want to pay any attention to them.
She got angry whenever she thought about it. Not only had Jin Zhuang given her the cold shoulder before, but even her own grandson didn't obey her!
Forget it, that damn boy has never ever obeyed her wishes.
"Your son pays homage to the Empress Dowager."
"I, a commoner, pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
The two of them knelt down together, and their tightly held hands finally separated. The Queen Mother gave them an annoyed look, turned her head away, and refused to tell them to stand up.
The Queen Mother is in her forties, so it is natural for her to act like a child.
She thought she could punish Helan Ruizhe by making him kneel for a few hours, but unexpectedly, the boy stood up by himself.
After Helan Ruizhe stood up, he did not forget to help Jin Suting. Jin Suting saw the Queen Mother's look, as if she wanted to eat her, so she did not dare to stand up.
But if she didn't stand up, wouldn't she be offending Helan Ruizhe and embarrassing him alone?
After careful consideration, Jin Suting finally let Helan Ruizhe help her up.
When she looked at the Queen Mother again, there was some apology in her eyes, but she didn't like to look at the Queen Mother, so she lowered her head and glanced at her secretly.
The Queen Mother's eyes widened, staring specifically at Helan Ruizhe, and she was furious: "Okay, very good, you won't stop until you're pissed me off to death, right?"
Helan Ruizhe remained silent, but his attitude said it all: he was determined to fight the Queen Mother to the end.
But he said, "I dare not. Grandma, you are the one who controls everything. Do you need to ask anyone's opinion?"
This was a deliberate attempt to provoke the Queen Mother. Jin Suting thought, Helan Ruizhe, you are going to die! She reached out and tugged at his sleeve, her worried eyes clearly visible.
The Queen Mother was so angry that she couldn't speak clearly: "You, you, you, puff——" a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The area in front of the main seat was dyed red, and Helan Ruizhe was a little panicked. This was not the effect he expected.
He immediately stepped forward to help, but Eunuch Bai was the first to support the Queen Mother who was about to fall.
There was still a trace of blood at the corner of the Queen Mother's mouth. Jin Suting rushed out the door and said to Yuan Jing, "Go and call the imperial physician! Go and call the imperial physician!"
"Come back!" The Queen Mother shouted at Jin Suting. Yuan was stunned. He vomited blood without calling a doctor?
What a willful mother of the nation.
"Grandma, Susu went to get the imperial physician!"
Helan Ruizhe was so anxious that his eyebrows were furrowed together.
"No need to go," the Queen Mother took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. Eunuch Bai helped her stand up. "It's just an old problem. It will be fine after a rest."
How could vomiting blood be an old problem?
Helan Ruizhe was anxious and angry, but he didn't show it on his face. "I'll take you to rest."
The Queen Mother slapped Helan Ruizhe's hand away, "No need, I can still walk on my own!"
The Queen Mother walked out of the hall step by step, and Jin Suting once again felt that her back looked a little lonely.
After the Queen Mother went to rest in the East Palace, Helan Ruizhe pulled Eunuch Bai out alone to question him personally.
"Has grandma been ill recently?"
Eunuch Bai sighed imperceptibly and said, "Doctor Mo said the Queen Mother showed signs of poisoning, very similar to the last time she was poisoned, but she didn't faint, she was just coughing up blood."
Helan Ruizhe frowned and said, "Poisoned? Have you found the person who poisoned him?"
“Not yet.”
Not yet...
It’s poison again. I was poisoned last time and I’m poisoned this time too.
Who is it?
Helan Ruizhe asked, "Grandma, are you feeling unwell in any other way?"
Eunuch Bai replied, "The Queen Mother has been unable to eat lately, saying she has no appetite."
No appetite?
The Queen Mother used to have a big appetite and could eat a lot in one meal. This habit lasted for decades, and Helan Ruizhe knew it.
Why do I suddenly have no appetite...
Helan Ruizhe asked again: "Is it because of poisoning?"
Eunuch Bai replied, "It's irrelevant. Imperial Physician Mo said the Queen Mother has no appetite. Perhaps she's tired of the dishes in the Imperial Kitchen."
Helan Ruizhe: "..."
Later, Helan Ruizhe mentioned this to Jin Suting, and she volunteered to cook one or two dishes that the Queen Mother had never seen before, which would be appetizing and healthy!
Helan Ruizhe questioned: "Grandma has tasted all the delicacies in the world over the past few decades. There are very few dishes she hasn't seen."
