The Empress Dowager could no longer contain herself. She growled, "Do you still want Nanling to marry the Emperor?"
One sentence hit Yongchang's Achilles' heel.
"I want to! But what does that have to do with going to the Taoist temple in Nanling—"
Before Yongchang could finish speaking, the Empress Dowager rolled her eyes at her again, "Whether you admit it or not, no matter what the truth is, Nanling's first fiancé died after getting engaged."
