In a word, he had become a completely useless cripple.
Knowing that he had caused a major disaster, Huang Ling fled the Li Residence in a panic with his personal attendant.
Because he had fallen out with his father and was also afraid of being sent back to the Li family, he did not return to the Imperial Palace this time. Instead, he hired a carriage and quickly fled the Imperial City.
With her son and daughter getting into trouble one after another, Li Sang became so furious and anxious that she actually fainted. Even after the imperial physician treated her for most of the day, she still did not wake up.
Su Qiao could no longer concern herself with any of that.
Because her Doggo had somehow learned that she had gone to see Shang Shuheng. He had thrown a tantrum and refused to see her.
After thinking it over, Su Qiao instructed Mu Rong to take advantage of the chaos in the palace early the next morning and rescue Shang Shuheng.
"Your Majesty..."
Shang Shuheng had not expected that he would still be able to leave the Imperial Palace alive.
He was so moved that tears filled his eyes.
Su Qiao cut him off coldly. "Your mother has already committed suicide in prison. Don't think about saving her anymore."
"They'll send you to Northwest Ruyang. I've already arranged for someone to take your family there as well."
"Once you arrive, my people will arrange a residence for you and give you some money. Settle down there, and don't return to the Imperial City again."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving me, and thank you as well for taking care of my family."
Shang Shuheng was deeply moved.
Although his mother was dead, he still had other family members.
