Reborn, meet you again!

Under the eaves of the Regent's Palace, big red lanterns swayed gently in the morning breeze. Yesterday's wedding silk had not yet been removed, adding a new touch of New Year's Eve, and the atmosphere was festive everywhere.

After Song Wan instructed Hongshang and Luluo to distribute the reward money to the servants in the mansion, she left the house with Jun Jiuchen.

At this time in the Cining Palace, Shen Yuru was talking to Su Jinyue.

As she was talking, Shen Yuru looked at the tangerines on the table and her eyes suddenly became moist.

"This was Ling'er's favorite when she was alive."

"Today is New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion..."

"If Ling'er were still here...

Listening to her mother's words, Su Jinyue couldn't help but lower her eyelashes and looked at the plate of tangerines, her eyes flashing slightly.

The hall was silent for a moment, with only the occasional crackling of the charcoal fire.

And at this moment, someone came to report.

The Princess Regent was waiting outside the palace and came to express her gratitude.

Hearing this, Shen Yuru suddenly stopped hiding her tears with a handkerchief.

A trace of uncontrollable resentment suddenly appeared in his eyes.

The reason why she entered the palace so early today was because she knew that she would come to the palace to express her gratitude.

The Su family did not receive an invitation from the Prince Regent's Palace, but she knew how lively the wedding was at the Prince Regent's Palace yesterday.

Thinking of the night before Ling'er's death, she cried and asked herself, was she really not good enough, not even as good as a merchant's daughter...

Her heart ached beyond measure.

It would be a shame for Ling'er if the Regent refused the marriage proposal.

Then this merchant's daughter would add fuel to the fire for her.

Before their daughter's body was even cold, they couldn't wait to get married...

Teach her how to swallow this...

Thinking of this, Shen Yuru looked up at her daughter, wanting to say something but stopping herself...

"Yue'er..."

But even if she didn't say it, Su Jinyue knew what she meant.

What she was thinking at this moment was similar to what Shen Yuru was thinking.

She was silent for a moment before speaking to Ruizhu beside her.

"Tell her that I am praying to the Buddha and mourning my loved ones, and ask her to wait outside the temple."

"I'll summon her after I'm done."

Although now because of Jun Jiuchen, she can't touch her.

But she could vent her anger for her sister.

Upon hearing this, Ruizhu looked at the lingering snow outside and the icicles on the eaves, and immediately understood what Su Jinyue meant.

After a hint of hesitation in his eyes, he still led the palace servant who came to report the news out.

Outside the Cining Palace, Song Wan was wearing a heavy imperial robe, and the pearls and jade on the phoenix crown swayed gently in the cold wind.

Some snowflakes fell on the clothes and quickly disappeared into thin air.

The vermilion palace gate slowly opened, Ruizhu walked over quickly and bowed politely.

There was a hint of apology in his eyes.

"Princess, please forgive me. The Queen Mother is currently praying to the Buddha and mourning for her loved ones. Please wait here for a moment.

She was a maid in the palace when Su Jinyue was still a beauty. After Su Jinyue was sent to the cold palace, she also went to take care of her.

For this reason, after Su Jinyue became the empress dowager, she promoted her to be her personal maid.

But in the past few months, she always felt that the empress dowager seemed to have changed a little, but she was just a servant, and she could only do what her master ordered.

When Song Wan heard Ruizhu say "mourning relatives", he immediately understood Su Jinyue's intention.

She was reminding her that Su Ling'er's death was closely related to her, and she wanted her to stand in the wind and snow and accept the punishment.

Song Wan thought about it and raised the corners of her lips slightly, but pretended not to understand.

"I see. Since the Empress Dowager is not available right now, I will wait in the warm room next door."

After saying that, he turned around with Zhuyue.

"Princess, wait a minute!" Ruizhu hurriedly stopped her.

"The Queen Mother means... please wait here."

Song Wan looked at the palace maid in front of her who looked troubled.

"The Empress Dowager must not have left the palace today. She doesn't know how bitterly cold it is today."

"Please go and tell her that I'm waiting in the warm room. I'm sure the Queen Mother will understand."

Ruizhu felt more and more troubled after hearing this, but she could only bite the bullet and continue to stop him.

"Princess, please obey the Queen Mother's order and wait here."

Zhuyue frowned upon seeing this and was about to step forward, but Song Wan raised his hand to stop him.

She seemed to have thought of something and stopped.

"In that case, I'll wait here."

Ruizhu didn't know why Song Wan suddenly changed his mind, but she still felt a little relieved and returned to the main hall to report to Su Jinyue.

After hearing Ruizhu's report, Su Jinyue's depression was slightly relieved.

Thinking that this woman came from a merchant family after all, although she married Jun Jiuchen, she might not have as much courage as Jun Jiuchen, so she would naturally be cautious when entering the palace, so he didn't think about it.

At least she wouldn't die if she stood outside for an hour or two.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyue and Shen Yuru looked at each other and continued talking as if nothing had happened.

Just a quarter of an hour later, the servant guarding the door came in with his head down to report.

"Empress Dowager, the Princess Regent has just brought people into the western warm room."

"The girl next to her is very skilled, and we servants can't stop her..."

Su Jinyue frowned slightly when she heard this, and the teacup in her hand fell heavily on the table. The splashed tea left a dark mark on the brocade tablecloth.

"That makes no sense."

She glanced at Ruizhu beside her, as if she wanted to say something. After hesitating for a moment, she turned to an old nanny waiting on the side.

"Madame Li, take a few people to the warm room. I'm going to teach the Regent Princess some etiquette."

"Since she doesn't want to stand, she can just kneel outside and wait."

"You will personally watch over this for two hours, not a moment less!"

She knew Ruizhu's personality and might not be able to control her.

However, Nanny Li is an old lady in the palace. She has been working in the palace for decades and is the most strict and cunning one.

The palace maids in Cining Palace all relied on this nanny to behave themselves, so letting her go at this time was the best choice.

Nanny Li, who was standing behind the pearl curtain, immediately bowed and stepped out.

"Yes, Queen Mother."
