In the year when the little emperor, Su Jingyi, turned 17, Su Zhiruan solemnly handed all her power over to him.
"Elder sister..." Su Jingyi looked at the familiar box, clearly knowing that the Imperial Jade Seal was inside. He directed his gaze to Su Zhiruan, reluctant to part, "Are you really leaving?"
"You rascal, your elder sister has worked for you all these years, it's time to rest," Su Zhiruan laughed, initially wanting to ruffle his hair like she did when he was a child, but realizing he had grown tall, she felt a bit relieved, "I believe you will be a good emperor, keep going."
Su Jingyi had grown taller, but emotionally he still depended on Su Zhiruan.
She had almost watched him grow up, only two years apart from her own child, and to him, Su Zhiruan was nearly like a mother.
Other emperors would always guard against Regent Kings, fearing their power and potential instability for the throne.
