Chapter 1043: Chapter 889 Restoring Order_2

Nanny Xiao saw that the Empress Dowager’s mood improved significantly with the companionship of the little girl and felt very gratified. Fortunately, this little girl is in the Palace, able to keep the Empress Dowager company, bringing a trace of liveliness to this cold and oppressive deep Palace.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Princess Lianchun has arrived!"

Both the Empress Dowager and Nanny Xiao were taken aback when they heard this, exchanging a glance, their expressions turning serious, both wondering: Why has she come? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

However, Xiaosuisui was already happily looking towards the doorway, "Aunt is here!"

The little girl’s joyful shout quickened the steps of Princess Lianchun.

She briskly walked up to Empress Dowager Xiao and Xiaosuisui, "You little girl, I could hear your laughter coaxing the Empress Dowager from afar. Tell me, what flattery have you lavished on Grandma?"

Seeing Princess Lianchun’s demeanor, Nanny Xiao let out a sigh of relief, it seemed she did not come because of the Concubine’s sudden demise.

"Aunt! Grandma has a stomach ache, she is afraid the Medicine Pill is too bitter and refuses to take it."

"You are not a child anymore! How can you refuse to take medicine because it is bitter?"

Upon hearing Xiaosuisui’s words, Princess Lianchun sternly replied and turned to Nanny Xiao.

"Go fetch a cup of tea, does Her Majesty have any of the Imperial Physician’s stomach soothing Medicine Pills here? If so, give one to the Empress Dowager to take!"

Nanny Xiao was just about to speak when she heard Xiaosuisui say, "Grandma has already taken the Medicine Pill, Suisui fed it! Aunt, you don’t need to feed her!"

Princess Lianchun reached out to stroke her little head, "Suisui is amazing!"

A "gurgling" sound came from the stomach.

Empress Dowager Xiao heard it and said in surprise, "You haven’t eaten yet? Sit down and eat with us! I will have the small kitchen prepare a few of your favorite dishes for you. Just this morning, the Imperial Kitchen buyers procured some venison and brought some over. I will have someone prepare a bit for you right away, you’ll be able to eat it shortly!"

Princess Lianchun quickly replied, "No need to trouble, the dishes on the table are still hot, and there is plenty of variety, more than enough. Keep the venison for now; we can eat it tomorrow!"

Nanny Xiao hastily brought the bowl and chopsticks to Princess Lianchun, and she enjoyed a calm meal!

The night fell, lanterns under the eaves were lit and hung up, and Xiaosuisui yawned in Princess Lianchun’s arms.

"Alright, the child is playful, tired from playing during the day, and sleeps quickly at night. Nanny Xiao, take her to wash up and go to bed!"

Nanny Xiao complied and took Xiaosuisui to rest.

Only then did Empress Dowager Xiao speak to Princess Lianchun.

"Regarding the events of the past, I know nothing about. I only heard today about the matter of the Concubine being pregnant at that time."

Upon hearing this, Princess Lianchun gave a soft laugh.

"I am indeed keen to know the truth about this matter, but I have never suspected you!"

These words from Princess Lianchun surprised the Empress Dowager.

"What I mean is that I have not suspected you today, not that I have never suspected you."

That is to say, before today, Princess Lianchun did suspect Empress Dowager Xiao, but suddenly today she dispelled that suspicion.

"I did not kill your mother concubine!"

She did not kill her, but that does not mean she had nothing to do with it!

Princess Lianchun understood the implication!

"Can you tell me why?

I know she had great ambitions, but I don’t know what exactly she did?

And did you ever..."

"Did I ever retaliate against her?

Is that what you mean?"

Empress Dowager Xiao interjected.

Princess Lianchun looked at her, her eyes and face full of tension.

"Did you?"

Empress Dowager Xiao sighed.

Looking at the burning candle beside her, the flame on the candle suddenly popped, producing a small spark.

"I thought about it but didn’t have the time!"

Princess Lianchun’s body went limp, gasping for breath. Throughout the entire Imperial Palace, only the already deceased former Emperor could have acted so fast and decisively; she could not think of a second person.

"Why?"

Princess Lianchun’s voice trembled, questioning Empress Dowager Xiao.

Empress Dowager Xiao sighed and shook her head.

"I know nothing!" Empress Dowager Xiao stood up, "I am tired, going to rest now!"

Princess Lianchun returned to her room, standing in front of the window, the snow fell thick and fast like goose feathers, several flakes landed on the window sills, covering them with a thin layer.

She reached out to catch a few snowflakes in her hand, which melted upon contact with warmth.

The dense goose feather snow had fallen for two whole hours, illuminating the entire night as if it were daylight.

The National Master stood on the roof of the tallest building of an estate on the outskirts, snowflakes landing on him, a dusting of snow accumulating on his collar, yet he remained unmoved.

Raising his eyes to the sky, "The time has come!" pinched his thumb, and as the celestial eye opened, his face changed color, then he snorted coldly: "Indeed so!"

Stealing the dragon, substituting the phoenix, grafting luck, what a great technique!

Such a defiant and harmful evil technique started more than ten years ago, and if not for the information obtained when Ji Youzhi interrogated Lu Yunsheng, he would not have realized the facial problem between Xie Pan’Er and Xie Yingying.

The National Master having uncovered the truth, formed hand signs with his hands, lines drew from his fingers forming a circle, projecting into the air, aligning with the source of the yin energy, his eyes blazing with gold light, shouting lowly: "Heaven and earth, yin and yang, rectify this disorder! Break for me!"

After the National Master shouted, the Array Diagram drawn by his hands suddenly blazed with intense white light!

In an instant, the entire courtyard shook, and a place abundant in yin energy suddenly "boom," formed a large pit out of thin air.

And from that large pit floated a box.

The National Master raised his hand, casting several more gestures to seal it!
