Ye Chuhe said she would stop looking.
Another half month passed, and a sudden fire broke out in the palace at night. The emperor was not burned to death, but a sword wound to his chest almost cost him his life.
That night, Ye Chuhe sat quietly at the table, placed the note in her hand on the burning candle flame, and calmly watched the ashes fall onto the wick.
Ye Chuhe thought she would never have anything to do with the female knight again.
But sometimes fate is just that interesting.
At that time, Prince Wen, who was still the second prince, was assassinated while traveling. He did not die, but drifted away along a tributary of the Yunjiang River.
The one who saved him was a young woman named He Qiuwan who knew both medicine and martial arts.
The two, who were of similar age, gradually developed feelings for each other, but after returning to the capital, they were met with a devastating blow.
They are half-siblings.
Ye Chuhe personally severed the red thread between the two, and at the same time quietly sent He Qiuwan back to Yunjiang.
As for He Qiuwan's mother, He Nianru, Ye Chuhe asked someone to pay her respects.
It wasn't that he resented He Nianru for giving birth to the Emperor's child, but rather that he was somewhat resentful that He Nianru left back then, and the two of them didn't even get to see each other one last time.
Later, Ye Chuhe became the Empress Dowager and also provided a considerable dowry when He Qiuwan got married.
A few years later, He Qiuwan's husband brought their young son to the palace.
It was at that time that Ye Chuhe and Granny Zhang met Jiang Fei, who is now Jiang Dai's brother.

"Oh, everyone's here!"
Princess Chaoyang strode confidently into the "office," and looking at every member of the Bai family present, she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Jiang Dai, how did you get involved with my maternal grandmother again? The Empress Dowager sent me to bring you into the palace."
Upon hearing this news, the Bai family finally breathed a sigh of relief, something they had been hoping for.
Ever since I learned two days ago that Granny Zhang said it looked too much like someone, that it resembled an old friend who served the Empress Dowager.
The Bai family was waiting for news from the Empress Dowager.
Bai Yunqi almost sneaked into the palace to use some tricks on the Empress Dowager, but he was stopped by reason and his family.
Today, finally someone has arrived with news from the Empress Dowager's side.
"Granny Zhang said I look like an old friend of the Empress Dowager."
Jiang Dai chose to tell the truth, after all, Chaoyang was not an outsider, and the mystery of her background should not be a secret, so she could just tell her directly.
"Should I only send my mother?" Bai Yunqi seized on the useless point.
Princess Chaoyang nodded: "That's right, Xiao Juan didn't ask anyone to bring her."
Upon hearing this, Bai Tian's imagination ran wild: "Won't there be any danger?"
Who knows what the Empress Dowager's relationship is with this old friend? What if they have a grudge?
Juanjuan looked at her mother with concern, wanting to say: "Why don't we take my older brother with us?"
Jiang Dai said meaningfully, "It's alright, Mother has a powerful protector! Isn't that right?"
Bai Yunqi coughed twice after being glanced at by his mother: "That's right, what could possibly happen to Mother!"
[Whoever dares to touch Mother will be in trouble!]
Hearing her older brother's thoughts, Juanjuan couldn't help but lower her head and chuckle softly.
My older brother can be both reliable and unreliable at times, but he's someone you can trust with your back.
