Chapter 843: Chapter 845, Who Made the Poisonous Move (3 more updates)
The Empress Dowager hurriedly straightened her posture, "Good!"
Yun Jinnian took out the items she brought back for the Empress Dowager, a string of old sandalwood prayer beads. "This Buddha bead is said to have been worn by several abbesses. When I saw it, I thought it was very suitable for the Empress Dowager at first sight!"
The Empress Dowager held the sandalwood, carefully stroking the patterns on it.
Smooth and round, as Yun Jinnian said, it had been worn for many years, truly a rare and good thing.
The Empress Dowager took off the jade bracelet on her hand and put on the sandalwood Buddha beads.
"It is truly a good thing, you were considerate!"
These Buddha beads must have taken a lot of effort to obtain.
Unfortunately, she feared that she wouldn’t live for long.
Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager couldn’t help but feel sadness welling up in her heart.
"Empress Dowager?" Yun Jinnian called softly.
The Empress Dowager looked at Yun Jinnian, "Hmm?"
"May I take your pulse, Your Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager gently shook her head, "No need, come sit and chat with me!"
She originally had a good body, why it suddenly collapsed, she knew in her heart.
She thought the child she raised would be affectionate, but it turned out to be just her wishful thinking.
Yun Jinnian was puzzled but didn’t ask more, accompanying the Empress Dowager, talking about some interesting things.
"Tianci is your brother?"
"Yes!"
The Empress Dowager smiled, not asking whose child he was.
"You are a lovable one, your brother must also be very pleasing. He should be rewarded!"
Yun Jinnian accompanied the Empress Dowager for a while, and the Empress Dowager got tired.
"Enough, you may go back! Little Anzi, give the things I prepared to Jinnian, let her take them back and enjoy!"
After being the Empress Dowager for many years, she still had some good things in her hands.
Not wanting to give them to the Emperor’s child, she gave them all to Yun Jinnian.
Rarely did Yun Jinnian catch her eye and earn her liking.
"Thank you for the Empress Dowager’s reward!"
But Yun Jinnian did not expect that the Empress Dowager rewarded her with three large chests.
"Eunuch An, are these all rewards from the Empress Dowager?"
Eunuch An smiled, "Replying to the Commandery Princess, yes, the Empress Dowager herself specifically instructed, these are all for the Commandery Princess. Some of them are gifts for your coming-of-age ceremony. The Empress Dowager is not well and may not be able to attend then, so she let you take them back in advance!"
Yun Jinnian looked back at Cining Palace and took a deep breath.
The Empress Dowager was poisoned, the poison had already attacked her vital organs, her days were numbered, and now that they met, who knew when the next time would be?
The Empress Dowager being poisoned, she should know who poisoned her, yet she had no power to retaliate.
And now, in this palace, those who dared to poison the Empress Dowager openly and nobody found out, there was only one person!
The Emperor!
Thinking of this, Yun Jinnian couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine.
When she went to bid farewell to the Emperor when leaving the palace, the Emperor did not make it difficult, and still rewarded her with several things.
"Go see if you like the place at the Princess Residence, if not, I’ll find you another one!"
"The Emperor’s reward, it must be extremely good!"
"If so, then you may leave the palace, come often to accompany Concubine Le, you two are of similar ages, you should become friends!"
"Yes!"
Yun Jinnian originally wanted to go to Weiyang Palace, but Shaoyao came and said that the Empress was resting, so Yun Jinnian took the Empress Dowager and the Emperor’s rewards and left the palace.
"Commandery Princess, what do you think the Empress Dowager has rewarded you with?" Hemei asked.
"No matter what it is, it must be the treasures that the Empress Dowager has collected!" Yun Jinnian said, sighing.
The Emperor is really too ruthless.
The Empress Dowager raised him and supported him step by step to become the Emperor, yet now he repaid her kindness with enmity, didn’t he fear being condemned by others?
Yangxin Hall
The Emperor leaned on the Dragon Throne, "What did the Empress Dowager say when talking to Princess Yijia?"
The Hidden Guard reported one by one.
"Did Princess Yijia take the Empress Dowager’s pulse?"
