The charcoal basin that was burning vigorously was evenly placed under the iron plate. Hua Sijin casually poured a cup of water on it, and soon it started to sizzle and emit hot steam, and was quickly dried.

"Okay, put the person on there and let him dance for a while."

Master Liu opened his eyes wide in horror, and without catching his breath, he fainted with his eyes rolled back and his head tilted.

"Your Majesty, the person has fainted."

Hua Sijin let out a click of her tongue, moved her lips slightly, and uttered four big words lightly.

"Waste, wake him up."

I don't know if Aunt Sha was so excited that she forgot everything, or if she finally seized the opportunity. Her eyes lit up and she poured a cup of hot water over her head.

Good news, the person is awake.

Bad news, I got scalded again.

Aunt Sha lowered her head and rubbed her hands embarrassedly. Hua Sijin waved her hands helplessly and poured another cup of hot water over her.

"what!"

A pig-slaughtering howling sound was heard, and Hua Sijin sat back calmly, looking at Tutor Liu with a smile.

"You eat too much ice on a daily basis. You can't even stand such a low temperature. Be careful of getting rheumatism after a long time."

"Fortunately, I know some folk remedies that can help you get rid of the dampness in your body. You don't have to thank me."

The pig-slaughtering screams continued, but Hua Sijin was not affected at all. She even picked up a piece of dessert and put it in the hands of Nanny Sha, who looked obviously nervous.

"Eat when you should, drink when you should, and don't take things to heart."

Aunt Sha nodded blankly, then obediently picked up the snack, stuffed it into her mouth, and started eating it bit by bit.

Hua Sijin looked at her with a smile, and then smiled as she picked up a plate of Daifuku that Zhuifeng had just brought in and ate it.

It must be said that the daifuku is sweeter and much more delicious than the mung bean cake that will make you choke.

Tutor Liu and the young eunuch danced passionately on the iron plate, with an enthusiasm comparable to tap dancing at three times the speed.

"Your Majesty! I know I was wrong. I will never dare to falsely convey the imperial decree again!"

Hua Sijin ignored him. What great use could a small follower who was used as a gun be?

Hua Sijin believes that she has low quality and morals, and she doesn't care about the lives of such shameless and unpatriotic people.

If he died, he died. What difference did it make whether he died in an accident or from torture?

In the face of national interests, what do personal grudges matter?

"The Queen Mother has arrived——"

Hua Sijin just picked up the hot tea that had cooled down a little, and put it down again before taking a sip. She slowly stood up and looked towards the door of the cell, quietly waiting for the Queen Mother to arrive.

"Mother."

As soon as the Queen Mother came over, Hua Sijin bowed and saluted with a smile.

"Hey Jin'er, are you okay?"

The empress dowager nervously pulled Hua Sijin's hand, looked at her carefully from top to bottom and from left to right for a long time, and finally felt relieved.

"Just now when you sent someone to look for the nanny beside me, I knew something was wrong here. Fortunately, you were smart and didn't fall for his trick."

Hua Sijin smiled lightly, pointed at the young eunuch, and lowered her voice.

"Don't worry, mother. I know all the capable people around you. I know that they would not randomly send a strange maid or eunuch to handle such a big matter."

The Queen Mother felt more relieved upon hearing this, her expression became more relaxed, and she looked happier.

Nine out of ten words that come out of her daughter-in-law's little mouth touch her heart.

The remaining sentence was either because she didn't hear it clearly or because she had something on her mind and couldn't concentrate.

"Wow, these two people dance very gracefully, which is much better than those people who have carefully rehearsed."

Hua Sijin understood immediately and hurriedly pulled the empress dowager to sit down and enjoy the show together.

Liu Yuyao clenched her hands tightly, her face as pale as paper as she listened to the shouting coming from the interrogation room next door.

Seeing a jailer with a stern face walking towards her with a bowl of cold rice, she trembled violently with fear, as if he was afraid that she would also be dragged over and tortured.

"Eat, don't worry, as long as the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother don't say anything, no one dares to do anything to you."

The jailer didn't want to say much, but the heavy money bag in his sleeve reminded him that it was better to take money to do the job.

Outside the prison.

"Your Highness, let's go back. The Queen Mother and the Empress don't allow anyone to visit them, so it's useless no matter how much money you spend."

Feng Yaoyu waved his hand gently, signaling the eunuch to move away. He then took another step forward and stared straight at the heavily guarded prison door in front of him.

"This prince knows all this, you don't need to remind me. After all, she is my mother, so I have to come and visit her no matter what."

The eunuch dared not say anything more and cold sweat broke out involuntarily.

He originally thought that she was young and easy to control, but he didn't know when she grew up to a level that even an adult like him was afraid of.

Is this the royal majesty? Even at such a young age, he has the ability to frighten people.

"Your Highness, the Queen Mother and the Empress are inside. When they learn you are here, please come in."

Feng Yaoyu clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves suddenly, turned around and glared at the eunuch who came with him.

But he couldn't disobey the orders of his elders no matter what, so he could only obey obediently.

"Lead the way."

After walking in through many twists and turns, he saw his grandfather spinning and jumping on an iron plate non-stop. He was oblivious to the noise and had his eyes tightly closed.

"Greetings to the Imperial Grandmother and Imperial Aunt."

With the Empress Dowager around, Hua Sijin was happy to have some free time. She just listened to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson.

"Why are you here, kid? Why don't you stay in the study and study with your teacher?

Feng Yaoyu frowned, trying hard not to look sad, with stubbornness in his eyes.

"My grandson wants to be closer to my mother, and I also want to see if there is a chance to send her some warm things to prepare."

The Queen Mother sighed and gently patted the back of Feng Yaoyu's hand.

"You two have been dependent on each other for so many years. It's normal for you to be unable to react when you suddenly see your mother in prison. But you are a royal heir, so you should know right from wrong."

"You will not be able to see your mother until you have found out what happened to her. Good boy, do what you need to do."

"I know you can't stand such grievances and blows, but you must remember that no matter who you are, it is not as important as the stability of your country and the world. You are the heir to the throne of Dafeng. If Dafeng is gone, there will be no meaning for you to live."

"No one will spare your life, let alone consider whose son you are. Do you understand what I am saying?"

Hua Sijin was secretly shocked. She never expected the Queen Mother's words to be so blunt.

No matter how old Feng Yaoyu is, he is still a young boy. Wouldn't he be overly stimulated by such harsh words?

After carefully observing Feng Yaoyu for a long time, Hua Sijin's eyes narrowed more and more, and alarm bells rang in her mind. A small thing that she had overlooked suddenly emerged.
