"This woman... is quite nice, and her two children are well-behaved... I can rest assured now."
Qi Yunxiao felt relieved: This meant that he would no longer stop or make things difficult for Qi Yunxiao?
The Empress Dowager glanced at the two maids beside her and suddenly said, "You two go and stand at the door first."
The two maids were reluctant, but the Empress Dowager suddenly became angry: "I'm in this palace all day long, what can I do? Can't I even say a few words to my nephew?"
The two old women finally agreed and went to stand outside the door.
The Empress Dowager lowered her voice and asked, "How are they?"
Qi Yunxiao replied in a low voice, "It's fine."
Seeing the Empress Dowager's eager expression, Qi Yunxiao added, "They can all eat and sleep well. My cousin was the one who introduced my three children to education.

Originally, as the Empress, her son was already the Crown Prince, so the Eighth Prince didn't have to grow up...
But suddenly one day, everything changed.
Her two sons had left the palace, but she herself could not possibly leave.
As soon as Qi Yunxiao returned to Xinghua Lane, the palace sent out two carts of rewards, with boxes being unloaded one by one, a total of eight large boxes!
The guards were all exhausted and panting heavily!
Yu Qiao almost drooled: "So heavy? Is it silver?"
The eunuch who came to deliver the items resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "They're all books! This is far more valuable than silver!"
