Xia Zhengqi widened his eyes in shock.
I am only 36 years old this year.
In the book, my mother and I should have died yesterday. Although we've survived yesterday's ordeal, what will happen in five years? The emperor father is poisoned, and within a month, the crown prince is pierced through the heart by arrows, and my second brother is tortured to death in the imperial prison. By then, how will my mother and I be able to survive?
I, the Crown Prince, and the Second Prince were all murdered?! Xia Zhengqi couldn't help but shudder.
The queen felt heartbroken when she heard this, but she still forced a smile.
Just as Xia Zhengqi was about to listen further, a young eunuch came running in to announce, "The Empress Dowager has arrived! Concubine Jiang has arrived!"
There was the sound of a pearl curtain, and two women in palace dress walked in gracefully.
"Your son pays his respects to the Empress Dowager!"
"I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager!"
The emperor and empress saluted quickly.
The younger woman also hurriedly saluted the Emperor and Empress: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, and the Empress, I pay my respects to you!"
After the ceremony, the older woman spoke first: "Qi Qiu and I heard that the Queen was in great danger yesterday, which scared us to death. May the Buddha bless us, our darling granddaughter was finally born safely! Let us see her quickly." As she spoke, she walked to the emperor to see the little princess.
The "Qi Qiu" mentioned by the Empress Dowager is Concubine Jiang in the book. The two are in the relationship of aunt and niece.
As soon as the Empress Dowager finished speaking, Concubine Jiang immediately interrupted: "I have been saying this, Sister is the Empress, so she is naturally blessed with great fortune. Even if she encounters danger, she will be able to overcome it."
[Wow, haha, the villain from the book is here.] Xia Miaoyuan kicked her feet excitedly and tried to turn her face away, as if she was ready to eat some melon.
The Empress Dowager and Concubine Jiang are the villains? Xia Zhengqi's heart skipped a beat.
