Chapter 1885: Chapter 1823: Planning Ahead

Nanny Shui escorted Ah Jiu out, then hesitated at the door.

"Nanny Shui, things have come to this. Whatever you know, just say it." Ah Jiu glanced in the direction of the sleeping quarters, lowered his voice and said, "I wasn’t being alarmist earlier. Last night’s events weren’t aimed at Wufu, but rather, used Wufu as a bait. The real target was us—my mother and us siblings. The other side knows what happened between my Imperial Brother and Royal Mother, they set such a trap to attack us."

"My lord..." Nanny Shui’s face showed shock.

Ah Jiu gave a bitter smile: "Even now, you’re still unwilling to tell me?"

Nanny Shui swallowed her saliva and said, "My lord, Her Majesty is right. You shouldn’t get involved. Otherwise, you’ll push Her Majesty to a dead end!"

Ah Jiu’s gaze turned sharp: "Nanny!"

How serious must it be for her to say such things? Could it be as Wufu suspects, that his Imperial Brother really did something he shouldn’t have to Royal Mother?

Nanny Shui did not back down in the slightest, instead, her eyes showed compassion, saying, "My lord, you and Her Majesty, you are Nanny’s life. I only wish for your wellness, nothing else. My lord, will you listen to Nanny just this once?"

"Does Nanny not know that my Imperial Brother already harbors fear and murderous intent towards me?" Ah Jiu’s eyes held some desolation.

Nanny Shui trembled all over.

Ah Jiu smiled bitterly again: "Enough, I won’t force Nanny. Just take good care of Royal Mother."

Nanny Shui watched him leave the grand hall, until he exited the palace doors, she swayed slightly, then went towards the sleeping quarters.

"Ah Jiu has left, what did he say?" Empress Dowager Mo looked over, staring at her intently.

"Your Majesty."

"Speak." Empress Dowager Mo sternly commanded.

Nanny Shui opened her mouth and said softly, "My lord seems to have guessed about His Majesty and Your Majesty..."

Empress Dowager Mo suddenly stood up, her face turning pale: "You, you mean..."

"Your Majesty, my lord is just guessing, I as an old servant didn’t say anything!" Nanny Shui hurriedly said.

Empress Dowager Mo’s body softened, collapsing onto the bed, her expression dejected, her eyes became dazed.

Nanny Shui was startled, quickly supporting her: "Your Majesty, what’s wrong? Don’t scare this old servant. Someone, call the imperial physician."

"No need." Empress Dowager Mo waved her hand weakly, "Don’t alert anyone, I can’t endure this anymore!"

"Your Majesty." Nanny Shui felt immense pity, her eyes reddening as well.

Empress Dowager Mo’s body weakened, saying, "Shui Xin, do not speak, no matter how he questions you, do not speak."

How could she bear such humiliation?

"Your Majesty. This old servant thinks my lord has almost correctly guessed and even is investigating the matter. My lord’s captain of the Secret Guards ended up in His Majesty’s hands, dead." Nanny Shui gritted her teeth, lowered her voice and said, "My lord said His Majesty harbors murderous intentions towards him."

Empress Dowager Mo’s face turned even paler, looking at her in horror.

"Your Majesty, we must plan ahead for this matter." Nanny Shui spoke with difficulty.

Empress Dowager Mo clenched her fists, saying, "If he dares, if he dares to touch one finger on Ah Jiu, I will take his life."

Ah Jiu is her life, if he is lost because of her, then she won’t continue living; in such a filthy place, living or not makes no difference to her.

But Ah Jiu cannot die, her Ah Jiu is still young, hasn’t become a father yet, he has a long road ahead, he cannot die!

If the Emperor, if he truly dares to act, she’ll fight him with her life!

Nanny Shui watched Empress Dowager Mo biting her silver teeth tightly, feeling terrified, as if foreseeing a bloody storm in the future.
