The Empress Dowager sat on the phoenix chair and sighed softly, "You had a dream, recalled your infancy, and then you remembered Lian Chun. Immediately, you came here to me.
Emperor, what exactly are you thinking in your heart?"
"Even I don't know. When elder sister disappeared, I was still young. Mother, just tell me one truth—did you know about the incident where elder sister helped me catch the snake?"
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager stared at the Emperor with sharp eyes.
"Are you doubting me?"
The Empress Dowager's voice carried a few notes of sharpness. She looked at the Emperor with unfamiliar eyes, feeling deeply disappointed. In her life, her father was neglectful, her mother unloving, her husband was flirtatious with many concubines. If everyone in the harem were set free, they could probably line up from one end of Vermilion Bird Street to the other!
Alright then!
