The Ming Dynasty: Starting with the Somersault Cloud, Old Zhu was so envious he cried!

At that moment, Empress Ma was moved to tears by her youngest son's words and cried uncontrollably!

Even the maid Yu'er standing to the side couldn't help but have her eyes redden and her nose tingle, and she sighed with emotion.

The Sixth Prince is truly the most filial child in the world.

I wish I could have a child as filial as His Highness in the future.

Even if it means my death in the next second, I'm willing!

Seeing his mother crying uncontrollably, Zhu Ming quickly reached out his little hand to wipe away her tears, comforting her in his childish voice, "Mother, today is a happy day, please don't cry, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Empress Ma quickly raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, her voice hoarse from crying: "It's my fault, I was too happy and couldn't control my emotions, that's why I couldn't help but shed tears."

Soon, Ma Xiuying composed herself, a smile returning to her face, and softly asked, "I wonder what gift you plan to give your mother tomorrow?"

"I'll tell you later, Mother, please close your eyes first," Zhu Ming said mysteriously, a sly glint in his eyes.

Hearing this, Ma Xiuying smiled, her eyes full of affection, and reached out to pinch Zhu Ming's little cheek: "Oh my, our Ming'er is so young, but he has already learned to keep things a secret."

"Oh, Mother, just listen to me!" Zhu Ming said coquettishly.

Empress Ma's heart melted at the sight, and she repeatedly replied, "Yes, yes, Mother will close her eyes now!"

Then, she obediently closed her eyes, her heart filled with anticipation for what kind of gift her son would give her tomorrow.

Even if it's just a doodle he drew casually,

In Empress Ma's eyes, that was ten thousand times more valuable than priceless treasures.

Then Zhu Ming said again, "Mother, open your mouth!"

Do I need to open my mouth?

Empress Ma was somewhat puzzled, but she still obediently did as she was told.

Meanwhile, the maid Yu'er witnessed Zhu Ming take a round object out of his pocket and stuff it directly into the Empress's mouth.

All of this happened so fast.

Yu'er didn't even have a chance to speak up or step forward to stop it before it was all over.

Zhu Ming waved his hand, a look of triumph spreading across his face.

Done, call it a day!

Now he could finally go back to sleep in peace.

"Ming'er, what did you feed me just now?" Empress Ma opened her eyes and asked with a puzzled expression.

Just now, she felt something round being stuffed into her mouth.

Like the candy she specially prepared for Zhu Ming,

However, the substance melted instantly in her mouth, and before she could react, it had already gone down her throat and into her stomach.

This time, Zhu Ming can give a bold explanation.

"Mother, the pill you just swallowed was a gift I prepared for you!"

"Pills?"

Upon hearing this, Empress Ma's expression changed drastically. She instinctively grabbed Zhu Ming's arm, her voice urgent, "Where did you get these pills? Who gave them to you? Did you take them?"

Her anxious behavior wasn't because she was worried that Zhu Ming would poison her.

Given her affection for Zhu Ming,

Let alone feeding her a pill of unknown origin, even if you gave her a bottle of poison, she would drink it without saying a word.

She was worried that someone would use the elixir to poison her young son.

"Mother, you're hurting me!" Zhu Ming winced in pain, her soft voice tinged with grievance.

Ma Xiuying then realized that she had used too much force in her haste, so she quickly let go of her hands, but her heart was still pounding.

"Ming'er, tell your mother, who gave you that pill just now?" Empress Ma's face was tense, and her eyes revealed a hint of unease.

Zhu Ming replied, "My master gave it to me."

Empress Ma quickly asked, "Who is your master? Why would he give you this elixir? And where did you find your master? I've never heard you mention him before!"

Zhu Ming was overwhelmed by Empress Ma's barrage of questions, leaving him unsure which one to answer first.

"My master is a deity, and the elixir was a gift he gave me when I became his disciple."

Zhu Ming couldn't explain the system to Empress Ma, so he fabricated a deity to impersonate his master.

As for the daily sign-in rewards from the system, he said they were a magical treasure given to him by his master.

After hearing Zhu Ming's answer, Empress Ma not only did not dispel her doubts, but a murderous intent suddenly flashed in her eyes.

Immortals? If immortals really exist in this world?

For the past six years, she has prayed day and night to all kinds of gods to bless her young son's recovery, but why has no god ever responded to her?

This must be someone deliberately posing as a deity to deceive her young child, and perhaps even to harm him.

Upon thinking of this, Empress Ma could no longer suppress her anger and immediately turned around to give Yu'er an order.

Whoever dares to harm her young child!

She was determined to make the other party pay the price!

"Yu'er, go and inform the Emperor right now that someone is trying to frame Ming'er, and tell him to come here immediately!"

However, after she finished speaking, Yu'er did not turn around and leave, but stood there like a fool.

Empress Ma frowned instantly upon seeing this. In the past, she and Yu'er had been inseparable, like sisters, and she had almost never spoken harshly to her.

But right now, it concerns the safety of her young son, and even her closest relatives cannot suppress her anxiety.

"Why are you still standing here? I didn't...?"

Empress Ma was halfway through her sentence when she turned her head and saw Yu'er's expression, and she was instantly stunned.

It was an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"you……"

Empress Ma had only uttered one word.

Suddenly, Yu'er cried out in alarm, "Your Majesty, your face!"

What happened to my face?

Empress Ma subconsciously touched her cheek, only to find it was a smooth and soft skin.

The smooth, tender feel was just like when she usually stroked Zhu Ming's face.

But that's impossible.

Because she is already 42 years old this year, and because she was often exposed to wind and rain when she was young, her skin has become very rough.

At that moment, she noticed her hands.

What were once calloused and deeply furrowed hands have now become as white as jade, with slender and well-proportioned fingers.

These were remarkably delicate hands, the kind only a young girl could have.

Empress Ma's pupils suddenly dilated, and she was as if struck by lightning. She hurriedly raised her hand and repeatedly touched her cheeks, neck, and arms.

Without exception, all of them felt smooth and firm to the touch.

"Mirror, bring me a mirror right now!"

In fact, without Empress Ma's reminder, Yu'er had already moved the mirror over and placed it in front of her.

The mirror was wiped spotless by Yu'er, and people could clearly see their reflections.

When Ma Xiuying looked up at her reflection in the mirror...

He froze on the spot, his breath seemingly stopping.

At this moment, there was no trace of the middle-aged woman in her forties reflected in the bronze mirror.

Instead, she had fair and firm skin, without a single fine line or dullness, clear and bright eyes, and neat and beautiful hair.

This is exactly what she looked like when she was unmarried and at the tender age of eighteen.
