The steward said carefully, "This was delivered by the Daxia Restaurant in the north of the city. From what I can see, it is indeed your personal seal. The shopkeeper said so too, so the seal must be correct."

Rong Su's face turned dark, he held onto the menu that had a huge debt of money, her entire body tensed up.

Li Jun stood up and looked at the table. Seeing that the stamp and signature on the bill was indeed Rong Su, she raised her eyebrows and asked: What did you eat for forty thousand silver? "Why didn't you treat me to it?"

Rong Su quietly told herself that she still had more things she needed from Rong Ling, she could not tear up her face, it was only forty thousand silver, maybe Rong Ling would only be short of money for the time being, and would return it to him later. Right, it must be like this, Rong Ling would definitely return the money, he was not such a shameless person.

Rong Su kept comforting herself, in the end she had really convinced herself.

When Qin Wushuang and Li Jun heard that Rong Ling had come to the capital, they were quite happy. Now that the capital was in a state of turmoil, Rong Ling had the authority to speak up in the Cabinet.

When they arrived, Rong Ling was still eating dinner and was alone in the hall. As he ate, he looked at them uninvited, and casually said, "Sit."

After Qin Wushuang and Li Jun sat down, Li Jun felt a little awkward. She took the initiative to ask: "Did we come at the wrong time? Why don't you have your meal first, we'll wait for you outside."

Rong Ling did not mind these formalities, and waved her hand: "Go ahead."

Li Jun looked towards Qin Wushuang. Previously, she had been in contact with Rong Ling in the Cyan Plains for a few days, so they could be considered to be close friends. He did not hide anything and directly told Rong Ling about everything that had happened recently in the capital.

It was mainly about the matter of the crown prince before he ascended the throne. When Li Jun saw an opening, he even made a joke in the middle of it. Do you want the new emperor to bring a full golden crown and pray for eight hours at the Taishan Temple? "It was just after noon when the Crown Prince's body collapsed and he fell off the high platform. The inauguration ceremony ended hastily, and he didn't even go to court the next day. He slept in his bedroom until the two days before he could get off."

Li Jun laughed as she spoke. In the past few days, he had been talking about the disgraceful matter of the crown prince.

Rong Ling did not laugh at all. Instead, he looked at Qin Wushuang and asked: "The new emperor hasn't come to the morning assembly yet?"

Qin Wushuang did not laugh. He nodded towards Rong Ling: "Yesterday, the morning assembly only started, but halfway through, I passed out again. Afterwards, I left it at that."

Li Jun saw that no one else was laughing, and only herself was smiling, so she could only shut her mouth in embarrassment.

Rong Ling asked again, "Empress … Where's Empress Dowager Sun? "

The Sun family had gone after the imperial power before. The Crown Prince's lack of strength to preside over the court's affairs had most likely fallen right into her favor.

When he said this, Qin Wushuang suddenly became silent. He lowered his voice and said: "She, is also very ill."

Rong Ling raised her brows.

Qin Wushuang said: "Qin Zi told me this, he said that the empress dowager had suffered from some sort of emergency and fell down overnight. Qin Zi also said that the empress dowager had repeatedly suggested that they go to Zhao He Palace to serve her, but the new emperor had tried to convince her otherwise. Now, only the empress dowager and the new emperor know of the situation in Zhao He Palace."

Rong Ling leisurely picked up a few chopsticks and placed them into her mouth. As she chewed, she kept quiet.

Rong Ling could probably guess what happened to the Sun family. The Child Gu died, and the Mother Gu rebelled, his grandfather had personally told him about this, but because he did not personally witness the Sun family's current situation, Rong Ling was not confident.

Qin Wushuang was very concerned about the recent situation of the Sun family: "In the end, no one has witnessed her illness with their own eyes. In my opinion, she is probably trying to mystify things and think of some other plan."

Li Jun shook her head: "I think that there is indeed an imperial physician going in and out of Zhao He Palace, it doesn't seem like it's an act."

"If he is really sick, then why can't I meet him?" Qin Wushuang asked.

Li Jun couldn't answer, so what happened to the empress dowager was still a mystery to them right now.

Rong Ling directly asked: "On the day of the Crown Prince's ascension, did she not appear?"

Qin Wushuang shook his head: "No."

Li Jun also said: "Before she ascended the throne, she already sent out some serious news, the matters of ascending the throne were handed to the leaders of the six divisions, she did not question them at all."

Rong Ling took another bite and after eating it, she put down her chopsticks and slowly asked: "Perhaps, she is already dead."

Both Qin Wushuang and Li Jun were shocked.

Rong Ling leaned back in her chair again, and casually denied: "I was just joking."

Li Jun was speechless. It's not funny at all, okay?

However, Qin Wushuang felt that Rong Ling was not a person who liked to joke around, but was the empress dowager already dead? It was also impossible that if she were to die, not even a speck of information would leak out.

Even if Zhaohe Palace had an iron wall and the lord was dead, the servants' faces would more or less show some signs of activity.

But right now, the behavior of the Palace Mistress of Zhaohe was still urgent. They were still trying to think of a way to save their master, and they had not given up.

Since he hadn't given up, that meant that he wasn't dead yet.

But why did Rong Ling feel that Empress Dowager Sun had died? Didn't he know that Empress Dowager Sun was a cunning and treacherous woman? How could such a person die so easily?

Rong Ling did not look at him. He had already finished eating, and after hearing that Li Jun had more or less finished her explanation, she stood up and said: "As for whether Empress Dowager Sun is dead or alive, I will send people to confirm. As for the new emperor …" Rong Ling was silent for a moment before asking Qin Wentian: "Did your plan go smoothly?"

"It went smoothly." Qin Wushuang laughed: "Everything is under control."

Rong Ling nodded her head: "Then everything will be as usual, as for me, I will not disturb you guys, and you guys don't have to contact me, I have my own plans."

Qin Wushuang still trusted Rong Ling a lot. Hearing his words, she nodded and left with Li Jun.

After Qin Wushuang had left, Rong Ling returned to her room. At this time, Liu Wei was sewing the sleeves of each of her dresses, and when she saw that Rong Ling had returned, he asked: "Did they leave?"

Rong Ling responded with a "En" and sat down next to Liu Wei. Seeing that the sleeve he was sewing was extremely unsightly and did not even try to open it, she asked, "When will the pearl be back?"

"It'll take a while." Ever since that day when he found out that Pearl had lost Gu, and even lost Fu Zichen, Liu Wei scolded his ruthlessly. Pearl knew her wrongs and changed her mind.

They agreed that they would meet in the capital then, and according to the time they had left, once Pearl brought Fu Zichen and the others to the capital, they would probably have to wait for another seven to eight days.

Liu Wei asked: "What do you want to find pearl for?"

Rong Ling told his about the sudden illness of the Sun family.

After Liu Wei heard this, she laughed, "So there really was a child Gu that died, does that mean that Empress Sun has suffered greatly in the past half month?"

Seeing her gloating face, Rong Ling asked, "What do you want to do?"

"Aren't we going to find out if she's dead or alive? I'll go. "

Rong Ling frowned.

Liu Wei patted the back of Rong Ling's hand and said calmly: "It's been a long time since we've last met, I'm really worried. I do want to talk to her alone."
