Chapter 1908: Chapter 1846: The Empress Dowager’s Test

Empress Dowager Mo suddenly inquired about the health and heirs of Empress Song, leaving Empress Song stunned, her whole body stiffening, the smile she had just conjured frozen at the corners of her mouth.

Sharing the surprise and bewilderment was Emperor Yan, who immediately glanced at Empress Dowager Mo.

"The Central Palace without offspring has always been a regret. You are still young and have been nurturing yourself for the past few years. Why is there still no news?" Empress Dowager Mo asked, seemingly both discontent and regretful.

Upon hearing these words, Empress Song and Emperor Yan’s faces seemed to display a palette of emotions.

"Royal Mother, why are you suddenly using me as a raft? I’m already at this age, how can I compare to the sisters below?" Empress Song’s hand, hidden in her sleeve, clenched tightly as she forced a smile and said, "I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint Royal Mother."

Empress Dowager Mo sighed deeply.

"It’s a pity that Qinger, that child, had a thin fortune and couldn’t be kept. He was truly a good kid." She mentioned Empress Song’s legitimate son mournfully, her face full of remembrance.

Empress Song’s face turned pale, her body swayed slightly, her lips pressed into a straight line, yet her eyes ignited with a flame of anger.

Bitch!

Obviously, it was this pair of mongrels before her that killed her Qinger, yet they were pretending to pity her Qinger, bitch!

Empress Song couldn’t restrain her trembling and anger, her gaze momentarily fierce and cold as her hands tightly clenched into fists.

Empress Dowager Mo happened to catch this overwhelming hatred, feeling a shiver in her heart as she unconsciously glanced towards Emperor Yan, seeing his thumb tucked inward, his aura somber, and her heart sank further.

"Empress, Empress?" She mustered her spirits and called out to Empress Song.

Empress Song shuddered back to reality, using the handkerchief to wipe the corner of her eyes, reluctantly saying, "I lost control of myself, I ask for Royal Mother’s forgiveness."

"Past events cannot be pursued. Take care of your body and give me a legitimate grandchild." Empress Dowager Mo turned to Emperor Yan, saying, "You too, Emperor, the Empress is your wife, it’s proper to have a legitimate son, even if it’s a princess."

Emperor Yan’s eyes with unknown emotions, deeply surveyed Empress Dowager Mo, stating, "Son obediently follows Royal Mother’s teachings."

"Hmm, I am tired, you may take your leave." Empress Dowager Mo extended her hand to Nanny Shui, who helped her up to return to her sleeping quarters.

"Your children respectfully bid farewell to Royal Mother." The two watched as Empress Dowager Mo disappeared behind the sleeping quarters’ curtain, exchanging a glance.

Empress Song managed a tug at her lips towards Emperor Yan, saying, "Your Majesty, Mother she..."

"Let us go, I will escort you back to Kunning Palace." Emperor Yan turned away.

Empress Song feigned coyness and joy, bowing her head, yet her eyes were filled with venom.

Meanwhile, Empress Dowager Mo returned to her sleeping quarters, softly collapsing onto the couch.

"Your Highness." Nanny Shui exclaimed in surprise.

"It’s nothing." Empress Dowager Mo took several deep breaths. She was indeed startled. Raising her head, she looked at Nanny Shui, speaking softly: "You and Eunuch Ning must thoroughly investigate all the spies within Cining Palace. Whichever belongs to Kunning Palace, weed them out."

Nanny Shui widened her eyes in shock, "Your Highness?"

Does this mean the Empress has issues?

"The Empress likely truly knows about the matter between the Emperor and me, and the death of the Fourth Imperial Son, as well..." Empress Dowager Mo said in a grave tone, "Overturn this Cining Palace for me; find all the impure things."

A woman harboring great hatred in her heart, who knows what she’s done in secret?

Nanny Shui swallowed, regained her composure, nodded grimly, and withdrew.

"Your Highness." After Nanny Shui left, a Grey Shadow appeared before Empress Dowager Mo.

Within Cining Palace, a delicate whispering sound arose...
