The Emperor granted a marriage; who dares to defy it.
Lin Zizi wiped away her tears, fell silent for a moment, and said, âIâve been muddleheaded for so many years, but now for Ningningâs sakeâ¦Old Master, I want to go to the palace.â
âYou want to have an audience with the Emperor?â
âYes.â
âZizi, I donât want you to go.â
âOld Master, I donât want to go either, but for our daughterâs sake, I must.â Lin Zizi was gentle but firm, âIâve missed out on our daughterâs life for so many years, and we owe her too much.â
Jiang Ruobai sighed deeply, âAlright.â
The next day, Lin Zizi dressed neatly and wore the court attire of a first-class officialâs wife.
It was the first time in over a decade that she dressed so grandly.
She was bright, elegant, and highly poised.
It seemed as if her past as the most beautiful woman in Changâan City had returned.
âMadam is truly beautiful,â Jiang Ruobai sincerely praised.
âWow, Mother looks so beautiful.â
Jiang Yi pushed Jiang Ning in, and when they saw her in this state, they all gasped in amazement.
Lin Zizi turned to see Jiang Ning, hurriedly walked over and said, âNingning, why are you up? You should be lying down and resting more. Let me see, does your hand hurt still?â
âIt doesnât hurt anymore.â
âAhh, it would be good if thereâs no scar.â Lin Zizi held her hand and blew on it gently.
Jiang Ning felt a soft warmth in her heart and asked, âMother, dressed up so beautifully, are you going out?â
âI need to make a trip to the palace.â
âTo the palace?â Jiang Yi was surprised, âWhat does Mother need to do?â
âI want to obtain a divorce for your Seventh Sister and the Prince of Yu.â Lin Zizi stood up, âWithout the Emperorâs consent, they will not be able to separate.â
âThatâs true, it was an Imperial Edict that brought them together last timeâ¦â Jiang Yi frowned, âBut yesterday, I saw that the Prince of Yu didnât want to divorce. The Emperor will surely side with his own son.â
âThatâs why I need an audience with the Emperor.â
âMother, can you take me with you?â Jiang Ning suddenly asked.
Ever since she returned to the Jiang Family, she had not had a proper conversation with Old Man Li. She wondered how that slightly lewd old man reacted to all this?
She thought she would be refused, but surprisingly, Lin Zizi smiled and said, âAlright.â
âAre you really taking me with you?â
âAs long as itâs something my daughter wants to do, Iâll make it happen.â Lin Zizi smiled, âCome on, letâs go.â
Jiang Ruobai did not object at all.
So, Lin Zizi brought her daughter to the palace to have an audience with the Emperor in the Eight-Treasure Canopy Carriage.
The Emperor had just finished his morning court session and heard that Concubine Su was sick, so he went to see her.
The eunuch ran to report that Prime Minister Jiangâs wife wished to see him, but the Emperor didnât immediately react.
It wasnât until the eunuch said âLin Ziziâ that he suddenly stood up: âSay that again?â
âPrime Minister Jiangâs wife, Madam Lin, is seeking an audience.â
âWhere is she?â
âShe is outside the Immortal-view Gate and cannot enter without Your Majestyâs permission.â
âWhat are you waiting for, invite her in immediately!â
âYes, your servant will go right away.â
The Emperor quickly went to greet her, and Concubine Su tried to hold him back.
Concubine Su, in her sickly state, said, âYour Majesty just arrived, why are you leaving so soon? Iâm not feeling well.â
âIf you are not feeling well, call for the Imperial Physician. I have urgent matters to attend to!â
Leaving Concubine Su behind, the Emperor hurried away without looking back.
Concubine Su called out a few times and wept with anger.
She had waited for several months, and he finally came but didnât even sit down to warm his chair before leaving.
Does that Lin Zizi really have such a powerful charm?
No matter what she thought, the Emperor ran back excitedly.
Watching Lin Zizi personally pushing Jiang Ningâs wheelchair, the Emperor held his breath.
She was still so beautiful, radiant like a flower.
Just like when they were young..
