After my whole family overheard my thoughts, they went berserk.

Luo Jing looked at Shi Lingfeng and softly made a request: "Second Prince, may I hold the little princess?"

Shi Miaomiao was very well-behaved in Luo Jing's arms, grinning and showing her gums, and making cooing noises at Luo Jing, which made Luo Jing laugh.

She gestured to him forcefully every second.

Luo Jing also communicated with her seriously, seemingly understanding her coded message.

"So, does the little princess mean that this talisman doesn't need to be drunk, but only needs to be carried on one's person to keep mother healthy?"

"Hehe." Shi Miaomiao smiled at her.

That's what I mean.

Luo Jing was very fond of the little baby. Before leaving, she took out her most precious embroidery and gave it to Shi Miaomiao.

She spent several months meticulously embroidering the children's clothes, intending to keep them as a gift for her brother's child in the future, but this was the only presentable item she had.

"Great deal! I want to wear it! I want to wear it!"

Shi Lingfeng changed her into a new jacket, making her look like a little lucky baby; everyone who saw her was delighted.

The brother and sister didn't linger and headed home.

After Luo's mother took the talisman, a stream of spiritual energy flowed into her forehead, and she immediately felt refreshed.

“Brother, Mother is really feeling better.” Luo Jing was very happy: “I think the little princess is no ordinary person. She seems to be very capable.”

Rogalin nodded: "Yes, I've noticed that too, but we shouldn't make this public to avoid causing trouble for the little princess."

"That's what I think too. The little princess has been kind to us, and we must protect her well."

Shi Lingfeng took Shi Miaomiao back to Huayao Palace.

The Empress paid close attention to Shi Miaomiao, and she quickly noticed her after she changed her clothes at home.

Did you ruin your sister's clothes?

"Absolutely not!" Shi Lingfeng tried his best to clear his name.

"Then why did your sister change her clothes? Before you left, I told you to keep a close eye on your sister."

Of the four children, Shi Lingfeng was the most careless and playful.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't resist Miaomiao wanting to play, she wouldn't have felt comfortable handing Miaomiao over to him.

Shi Miaomiao looked at the Empress with a wronged expression.

"Mommy, Erguoguo is bullying me."

The Empress looked at the little girl and felt extremely wronged.

She grabbed Shi Lingfeng's ear: "Tell me, did you bully your sister?"

Shi Lingfeng screamed in pain.

"Mother, I really didn't! I love her so much, how could I possibly bully her!"

"Hmph, yes, yes! You took my Fu Fu and then laughed at my ugly drawing!"

Shi Lingfeng quickly covered his chest.

However, they still underestimated the power of a doting father.

"Mother, I really didn't bully Xiao Wu!"

Shi Lingfeng slumped to the ground, utterly dejected.

He couldn't understand why the Empress, who was gentle and virtuous in public and had such a good temper with them, had become so irritable after giving birth to Xiao Wu!

"You even dared to cheat your own sister out of her things, and you took twenty of them in one go. These are your sister's treasures, and I can't bear to touch them."

Turning around, the Empress gently tucked the talisman back into Shi Miaomiao's embroidered pouch.

Qing Sui and Qian He stood to the side, both covering their mouths and chuckling.

"You brat, you even dare to covet your sister's things!" As soon as the Emperor entered, he kicked Shi Lingfeng in the butt.

He had been outside for quite some time, waiting specifically for the Empress to be rescued so he could add insult to injury and trick his daughter into giving him a longevity charm.

Shi Lingfeng was filled with grievances, and he even began to wonder if he had been adopted!

"Mommy is so amazing! Father is so amazing! I love you both so much!"

The emperor smiled with satisfaction.

He leaned closer, his face full of flattery: "Daughter, shouldn't you give one of these talismans to your father?"

Shi Lingfeng was speechless: His father was still pretending to scold him, but he himself had started lying to Xiao Wu about things!

Shi Miaomiao was all smiles.

"Father helped me teach Erguogu a lesson, so I should reward him."

With her big eyes darting around, she finally figured it out.

"Then let's reward Father with a sweet kiss, it smells so good!"

"Bang bang bang." Shi Miaomiao smacked her lips at the Emperor.

The emperor's face turned black with anger.

I heard she has a big bag of talismans. Is it really that hard to get a longevity talisman?

Could it be that his daughter really thinks he's too old and dislikes the smell of an old man?

"Hahahaha!" Shi Lingfeng looked at the Emperor's disappointed face and knew that his scheme to trick his daughter had failed. He felt inexplicably happy.

The emperor turned his face, raised his foot, and kicked him in the buttocks again.

"You brat, you dare laugh at your own sister? Get out of here!"

"No, Second Brother is clearly laughing at Ni!"

The Emperor's face darkened: Daughter, can you give your father a little face?

at night.

While browsing through books in his study, Luo Jialin discovered that an important book had been left at the old house, and decided to make a trip to Fuliu Street.

While searching through the study in the old house, I seemed to hear some noise outside.

He went outside and saw two figures outside the house. One was holding a tinderbox, and the other was carrying a large amount of kerosene, pouring it into the corner of the house.

"What are you doing?" Rogalin immediately stopped the two.

Seeing this, the other person hurriedly threw away the tinderbox in his hand, and the fire quickly spread and burned the entire house.

The two men strode forward, pulled out daggers, and stabbed at him.

Rogalin grabbed the man's wrist, and another man attacked him, slashing his arm with a dagger.

They dragged Rogalin and forcibly pushed him toward the old house.

While fighting the two men, his hands were bleeding profusely. Knowing that he could not fight them head-on, he ran towards the alley entrance.

Seeing that the two were relentlessly pursuing him, he dared not run home, where only his mother and sister lived, both of whom were too weak to even kill a chicken.

Soon, the two men caught up with him and stabbed him in the leg.

Luo Jialin couldn't understand who could possibly kill him and even try to wipe out his entire family!

Ignoring the pain, he ran in the nearest direction, all the way to the Si residence, where he frantically knocked on the door.

"I am Luo Jialin, a historian from the Hanlin Academy. I have urgent business to discuss with Lord Si!"

When the two servants saw that he was covered in blood, they did not hesitate for a moment and helped him inside.

The two chased after him to the gate of the Si residence, but fearing they would make a scene, they turned and ran away.

Upon receiving the news, Si Pei'an rushed over and instructed his servants, "Quickly, summon the physician from the manor!"

"Who is it that dares to harm an official of the imperial court?" Si Pei'an was always righteous and could not stand such despicable acts.

Moreover, this person is so vicious that he wants to exterminate the entire Luo family.

"Lord Si, I have another request!" Luo Jialin's face was pale and his voice was weak.

Si Pei'an said, "Speak frankly, please!"

"If I hadn't gone back to the old house tonight to retrieve some books, I wouldn't have discovered the arson. The person who framed me probably didn't know I moved. Only my younger sister and my sick elderly mother are home. If I were to go back rashly, I'm afraid..."

Si Pei'an said, "You should rest at home. This matter is of utmost importance. Tomorrow morning, I will accompany you to the palace to personally meet His Majesty!"

Luo Jialin was in full charge of the pharmaceutical company matter. While handling the case in the supervisory office, he investigated many people, fearing that some might be using their position for personal revenge.

If everyone acts like this, who will dare to work for the imperial court in the future?

He had to report this matter.
