Since the last time Jiang Li met the Empress Dowager in the palace, the days passed neither hastily nor slowly. Emperor Hongxiao had not asked her about what she had discussed with the Empress Dowager, and Jiang Li was not inclined to bring it up herself. Jiang Yuanbai did not inquire either; however, Madam Jiang the Elder, hearing that there was a divine healer in Yongzhou capable of curing idiocy, planned to take Jiang Youyao to Yongzhou after Jiang Yuanbai resigned his post, hoping to restore Jiang Youyao's senses.
The Jiang family members, facing the impending resignation, were unexpectedly calm about it, with only Jiang Jingrui showing confusion. The others did not say much. What soars must come down; it was not easy for the Jiang family to be able to retire intact up to this point. And when power and influence were no longer of concern, people tended to care more about family ties. Hence, Jiang Youyao's condition turned into a major affair for the Jiang family.
