Sending off (Last)

A middle-aged lady who was dressed just as magnificent as Hui Lan stood beside the Empress.

Both watched as the horse carriage was driven away.

Only until the Palace gates had closed did the person beside Hui Lan speak, "Would you like to have a cup of tea with Aijia?"

Hui Lan retrieved her eyes from the large Palace gates to the significant person beside her. Her thoughts lingered on Feng Furen's last few words.

...Was it really alright to ask this person for help?

...She was still the Emperor's mother...

Seeing the Empress in a trance, the Empress Dowager Xin once again took the initiative, "Let's go to Aijia's palace."

There was nothing to lose in meeting the Empress Dowager and thinking of such, Hui Lan nodded silently.

With the invitation received, Empress Dowager Xin took the lead followed by the Empress. Two dignified figures heading the same direction, would not be able to pass by other's eyes.
