At the palace gates, Daohua looked apologetically at Kang Naixin, "I've implicated you. The next time you see me, please don't greet me anymore."
Kang Naixin felt embarrassed in front of the Empress Dowager and didn't feel as ashamed or unable to save face as one might imagine. She shook her head and chuckled softly, "Don't blame yourself. Who knows, maybe this episode will turn out to be a blessing in disguise for me."
Wu Dingbo was a fool, and by making her feelings clear in public this time, she wondered how he could continue to play dumb.
Understanding her meaning, Daohua smiled and said, "In that case, I wish you all the best in achieving your desires."
The day after the birthday banquet, the Empress Dowager again announced she was ill.
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang in confusion as she watched the Ping Prince getting ready to stay at Four Seasons Manor, "Usually, whenever the Empress Dowager is sick, father would immediately visit the palace. What happened this time?"
