Chapter 204
Once the Empress Dowager arrived, everyone scrambled to their knees madly.
It was no longer appropriate for Huang Yue Li to continue to hide within the curtains.
She regretfully looked Bai Ruo Qi, “Second Sister, I want to help you here, but….I have to go out to greet Her Highness. You stay here and rest, I will leave first!”
Bai Ruo Qi gnashed her teeth to death, but did not make a sound.
Strolling away lightly, Huang Yue Li hid in the back of the crowd, seamlessly fitting in.
She could hear the Empress Dowager say: “At ease, to these young ladies, you may sit down.”
Only then did Huang Yue Li look up.
She had heard people say that the Empress Dowager usually stayed indoors reciting scriptures after entering her senior years. While also doing quite a few charity works in her spare time, quite a friendly and old lady.
But at that current moment, there was not a trace of kindness on the Empress Dowager’s face. She could only see a straight face that coldly gazed at the crowd in front of her; filling the room with her royal and dignified presence.
Since Empress Shu had always been quite close with her sister during childhood, naturally she agreed to such a task.
Therefore, since the moment she arrived at the Empress Dowager’s Palace of Compassion and Tranquility, she had been waiting for Bai Ruo Qi’s good news.
Originally she was a bit worried, worried that Bai Ruo Qi would not be able to find the opportunity use the medicine, or be discovered. The results proved otherwise. Though that girl was young, she could still get things done.
It wasn’t until noon, that Aunt Li sent someone to report to the Empress Dowager that someone had fainted in the Palace due to a miscarriage!
At this news, Empress Shu let out a sigh of relief. Knowing it was her time to appear, she followed the Empress Dowager’s and rushed to the scene.
