Shen Mingzhuang couldn't help but feel ashamed upon hearing this.
Like father, like son; he's really got some nerve. But when she heard her son say, "No matter how busy you are, you shouldn't neglect your mother," she couldn't help but wonder if her silly son would grow up to be a lovesick fool.
The thought immediately brought Lu Yan to mind.
Lu Yan and Shen Xingtai were supposed to enter the palace a few days ago, but Lu Yan fell ill. She sent some medicine over and had the head of the Imperial Hospital come to check on her. Fortunately, it was just a common cold and she would be better in a few days.

So, in the misty spring rain, on a dark and windy night, a figure swiftly swept across the palace wall.
