Chapter 370 The Relationship Between the Mysterious Man and the Empress Dowager
Emperor Changlong only thought the word "very good" to himself and did not say it aloud.
He looked at the Empress Dowager and said gently, "Empress Dowager, from now on you can rest peacefully in Cining Palace and don't worry about anything else."
"Ugh... Ah... Eeya..." The Empress Dowager flailed her arms in the air, struggled with her legs, and kept shouting. Her eyes were full of anger and helplessness as she looked at Emperor Changlong.
However, no one understood what she was saying.
Emperor Changlong thought that she was glaring at Song Siyao with such resentment because Song Siyao hadn't cured her illness.
"Your Majesty, Yaoyao has done her best, please don't blame her."
"Woo!!" The Empress Dowager's roar was filled with anger.
Emperor Changlong ignored her and instead looked at Wujing, instructing, "Take good care of the Empress Dowager. If anything happens to her, I will hold you responsible!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, this servant obeys the decree." Wujing replied respectfully.
Emperor Changlong left with his entourage.
As Song Siyao left, she exchanged a glance with Wujing, then brushed past her, the secret between them unspoken.
Only Turnip and the Empress Dowager remained in the palace.
The Empress Dowager stared intently at Wujing, her eyes filled with resentment. She couldn't understand why Wujing had betrayed her.
She is the master of the turnip, and the turnip can tell her whatever it wants.
It's just arranging a job for her son; she can do it with just a few words.
Over the years, she believed she had treated Wujing well, never expecting that it was the person closest to her who would stab her in the back.
Wujing felt a moment of fear when she looked at the Empress Dowager, but then she remembered what Song Siyao had said: as long as she remained loyal to Song Siyao, the Empress Dowager would never have a chance to speak, and she would always be safe.
Her heart immediately calmed down.
"Your Majesty, what would you like to eat? This servant will order someone to prepare it."
Turnips, as always, were respectful and courteous.
"Ah!!" the Empress Dowager roared, but her roar sounded weak and powerless.
Her gaze was like a knife, as if she wanted to slice the turnip into a thousand pieces.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. You are ill now and need to rest more. Getting angry will not do you any good."
Turnip tucked the blanket around the lady, saying, "Don't worry, I will take good care of you."
"Ah!!" The Empress Dowager roared, but at this moment she was like a tiger whose teeth had been pulled out, looking ferocious but actually unable to cause any harm.
"Your Majesty, you've just woken up, you must be hungry. This servant will help you wash and dress, and then instruct the kitchen staff to prepare something for you to eat. Please rest first." After saying this, Wujing left.
The Empress Dowager behind him was still yelling, but her voice sounded desperate and helpless, echoing in the empty palace like a trapped ghost.
Song Siyao did not stay in the palace. On the way back to the Crown Prince's residence, Hongshao asked, "Crown Princess, why did you suddenly attack the Empress Dowager? What if the Emperor finds out?"
"The Emperor won't know, and even if he did, he would acquiesce."
Song Siyao's voice was icy cold, "The Empress Dowager has done too many things that are not human."
Her purpose in poisoning the Empress Dowager this time was not only because the Empress Dowager had harmed her unborn child, but also to lure out the person behind the scenes.
She has found a clue: the mysterious man in black has a close relationship with the Empress Dowager.
Otherwise, she would have poisoned the Empress Dowager directly.
She is getting closer and closer to the truth.
"Father, Mother, I will soon find out the truth about the massacre of the Duke of Huguo's family. Please wait a little longer."
