I've been a bit rushed these past two days as I've been picking up my old job.
Update later

Jin Suting returned to the palace in a daze. She didn't understand why Yu Qinglan was so hostile to her. Perhaps she could guess it was because of Helan Yinsheng, but what had happened between her and Helan Yinsheng before...
My head hurts so much, it feels like it's going to explode when I think about the past.
"Your Majesty, you have been having a headache these past few days. Would you like me to call the imperial physician to take a look?" Tan'er supported her, her eyes full of heartache.
Jin Suting held her forehead and said, "Go ahead."
As Tan'er started to move, she added, "Don't tell Doctor Mo, tell someone else."
Tan Er was puzzled: "My Lady, why is this happening?"
Jin Suting: "He comes to check Ping An's pulse every day, but he can't find any illness."

The emperor returned to the palace for three days and dealt with a mountain of government affairs. He only started the morning court on the third day.
The most talked about topic in the memorial was the rebellion in southern Xinjiang. Helan Ruizhe had heard about it on the way back to Funing City. This matter was indeed a bit tricky.
In the hall, he glanced at the ministers who were bowing their heads and said, "The rebellion in southern Xinjiang is very difficult. We need a general to lead the troops to fight. Who will come?"
After these words were spoken, no one dared to breathe.
Everyone knows that the people of Southern Xinjiang are good at using poison, and they are even more vicious on the battlefield. When Helan Qin was still a princess, Nangong Si led his troops to attack Southern Xinjiang, which severely damaged their morale. That's why they haven't invaded again for many years. He even sent a princess to marry the new emperor when he ascended the throne.
But who knew that this was just a delaying tactic of the people in southern Xinjiang. They first sent the princess as a marriage to show goodwill, so that the Kingdom of Fuding would relax its vigilance, and then they would bide their time and prepare to take it down in one fell swoop!
Liu Mo was injured while riding a horse a few days ago, and now he can't even attend court. The court is full of civil servants, and no one is willing to lead the troops.
"Are the people of Southern Xinjiang really willing to give up this princess?"
At this time, Prime Minister Tang, who was not afraid of saying the wrong thing but loved to be in the spotlight, spoke first.
The questions are all irrelevant.
Yu Seung-ho naturally inherited the legacy of Old Master Yu perfectly, at least in terms of mocking Prime Minister Tang, he copied it perfectly: "Prime Minister Tang really knows nothing. The people of Southern Xinjiang are cruel and ruthless, let alone the princess. They have taken countless lives in their hands and they don't seem to have any sympathy. They use human bodies for experiments. What do you think they are reluctant to give up?"
Not only did these words leave Prime Minister Tang speechless, but all the court officials also gasped in shock, and no one dared to stand up.
Helan Ruizhe looked at the situation and sighed, "Then I will personally lead the troops to defend Southern Xinjiang!"
A group of people said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Another group of people said, "Your Majesty is worth a thousand gold, you must not put yourself in danger!"
A group of people said: "If you can do it, go for it!"
Another group of people: "...Your Majesty is wise!"
What happened in the court quickly spread throughout the entire harem. Concubine Li was quickly isolated and even avoided the daily greetings.
In Fengluan Palace, a group of concubines sat around the Empress. Shi Qingmiao was eating melon seeds, obviously not thinking that the rebellion in southern Xinjiang was a serious matter.
She thought, "Southern Xinjiang was conquered by Fuding long ago. They were defeated thirty years ago. It's all in the past. They still pay tribute to us with jewelry and soldiers every year. They have no money and no men. How could they have the courage to rebel?"
The truth is, southern Xinjiang has indeed been too honest.
