"Rourou, stop pacing in front of me, it's making me restless," in Chuhua Palace, a palace maid was massaging the shoulders of the Empress Dowager.
In recent days, the Empress Dowager was in high spirits, ever since the day she took the Elixir Pills Lie Rou had sent, she felt her complexion improving day by day.
The appearance she made in Jinghua Garden also helped her save face, especially after hearing about the unnamed major fire in You Tan Palace, the sight of the Consort with her face covered in ash brought her great comfort.
The Empress Dowager didn't have much affection for Yue Jinghua, she merely cared for Lie Rou because of the favor Lady Feng Wanwan showed her years back, thus she had taken care of Lie Rou and her daughter behind the scenes.
As for the marriage of Xiao Yi, she genuinely wanted to facilitate it, not only to give Yue Jinghua a Princess' title but also to prevent Xiao Yi from aligning with other powers.
