Although she had tricked the Emperor, facing the loving Empress Dowager, Yun Jinnian still felt soft-hearted.
The Empress Dowager sighed deeply upon hearing this.
"The Emperor was most afraid of pain when he was young, and afraid of taking medicine. Every time he was ill, it was I who had to hold him and coax him repeatedly before he would take his medicine. Over the years, the Emperor has become a grandfather, and I have been wholeheartedly enjoying my own blessings, yet I have forgotten to care for him more! No matter how formidable he is, in my heart, he is still that child who is afraid of the bitterness of medicine and of pain!"
Yun Jinnian remained silent.
This...
Why would the Empress Dowager say these things?
The Empress watched from the side, her lips curling into a smile.
