"Doctor He, you make the prescriptions."

Yan Shengrui stepped forward to hold Ling Jingxuan's hand and said that. Before they responded, he said to Yan Shengzhi who was by the bedside of Her Empress Dowager, "Brother, don't be over worried. At least, mother survives. If with carful nursing, maybe some day the blood stasis would be removed and she'd also recover. As long as there is a slice of hope, we shouldn't give up, right?"

No one knew Ling Jingxuan's poison better than him. As he said Her Empress Dowager could not stand up again, then she would definitely never stand up again. However, at such a time, he still had to say some comforting words.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Shengrui is right. As long as Her Empress Dowager is alive, there is hope for us."

Chu Yunhan, who had not spoken for quite a while, also echoed. Yan Shengzhi then slowly stood up, sat by the bedside holding his mother's hand, saying with a nearly sobbing tone, "I know. You can leave. I want to accompany mother alone."

Let alone the imperial family, even in those big families, it was really not easy for a pair of mother and son, especially those who survived till the end and climbed to the top position. As the saying goes, the achievement of a general cost thousands of lives. Which emperor didn't step on people's bone to climb to that position. Without Her Empress Dowager's support and protection, how would he have ever had his today?

"I beg your pardon."

Seeing this, Yan Shengrui, who had long wanted to leave, resolutely pulled Ling Jingxuan to leave, and Chu Yunhan also backed out. When they all left, Yan Shengzhi reached out and stroked his mother's hair, saying sadly, "Mother, don't worry, I will let people take good care of you. I believe that you will have the chance to stand up again."

Unfortunately, after such a big blow, Her Empress Dowager totally couldn't hear him now.

"Your Highness, Your Crown Princess, her lady asks to see you."

After going out of Fuling Palace, Ling Jingxuan meant to find a dark corner to say something to Chu Yunhan, but a maid suddenly came out of nowhere. With his hand holding his man's tightened, Ling Jingxuan subconsciously turned to give Yan Shengrui's a look. A man who even wouldn't blink if heaven fell now changed his face. Her lady from her mouth should be his mother, the once No. 1 beauty of the Qing Kingdom, right?

"Tell her I have no time."

After saying that, Yan Shengrui pulled Ling Jingxuan to leave. Seeing her would remind him of his younger brother who had died already and all her doings before. Although as he grew older, he could understand a lot of things. But emotionally, he still couldn't accept her.

"Wait, Shengrui, wait..."

As the other side had long legs and was in rage, though Ling Jingxuan's legs were no shorter, he still couldn't catch up. Being pulled by him like that, he just didn't how to suit himself. Yan Shengrui before him turned his head hearing him, "Sorry."

The only person in the world who could make him say sorry was Ling Jingxuan.

"It's okay. Wait a minute."

Shaking his head to him, Ling Jingxuan threw him a smile, then turned back to run to the maid at a loss, "You go back and tell her lady, Jingxuan is her new daughter-in-law, but today I came without preparing anything, so we won't go visit her today. Some other day, I will bring my husband and the kids to kowtow to her."

If you don't care, you won't lose your cool.

Yan Shengrui's reaction obviously showed that he still cared, which was also why Ling Jingxuan turned back.
