Lu Qiqi transmigrated into a chaotic world of famine. With no parents and carrying a little sister in tow, she had to face immense hardship.
On the road during her escape, while others drank ...
Meanwhile, the Empress Dowager's palace also received the news.
At that time, the Empress Dowager had just finished her breakfast and was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
She slammed her hand heavily on the table on the soft couch, causing the teacups, fruit, and pastries on the table to shake.
"These audacious and treacherous traitors! They wouldn't even spare a child!"
Although the Empress Dowager was well-maintained and did not look old like a peasant woman who had worked all year round, once a person gets old, they will have symptoms of qi deficiency.
She had barely finished hurling two curses when she started coughing.
A few coughs startled Granny Ye, who quickly stepped forward to pat her back and soothe her, saying, "Your Majesty, your health is paramount, please don't get angry."
He offered a few words of advice and comforted her, saying, "This matter also involves the Crown Prince of Libei. I'm sure the Shadow Guards will soon find out the truth."
The Empress Dowager said, "Regardless of the truth, whether the assassins' target was Binyu or not."
Now that the Marquis of Lin'an's mansion has put him out there, it's to deter the people in the capital from touching him again.
This matter might even serve as a protective charm for Binyu before he comes of age.
Granny Ye then handed a teacup to the Empress Dowager.
After drinking the tea, the Empress Dowager felt much better and said, "Have Yan Qing investigate the truth and send people to protect Bin Yu's safety on the surface."
We will also send some gifts to Lady Lin'an, as a token of the Lin'an Marquis's family's consideration for Binyu.
Just as Granny Ye was about to carry out the order, she heard the Empress Dowager's instruction, "This matter is probably not the idea of Marquis Lin'an."
Go and select some jewelry to send to Princess Kang Le, and also give her the phoenix-feather jade hairpin I wore when I was made empress.”
Granny Ye was stunned for a moment, then saw the Empress Dowager pick up the tea and take a sip, as if what she had just said was just a casual reward and not taken seriously.
But only she knew how much the Empress Dowager loved and treasured that phoenix feather jade hairpin.
It seems the imperial decree to bestow a marriage upon the Crown Prince of the Northern Kingdom and the Princess of Kangle County will be arriving soon!
