In the Empress Dowager’s palace.
After the empress dowager was exposed by Emperor Hui Lin, she could not eat.
Her sense of taste had not worked since she was not favored. Once she had something troubling her, it would taste like wax.
Ever since Lu Chen was born, the Empress Dowager had not liked the empress. She had even tampered with Empress Zhou several times when she was pregnant. If not for her niece Noble Consort Li protecting the empress everywhere, Lu Chen would not have lived to this day.
Many times, the empress dowager had thought that the emperor had not been able to track her down because the emperor could not find out.
Hearing what the Hui Lin Emperor had said today, the empress dowager finally understood. It turned out that the Hui Lin Emperor had always known about her tampering, and so did Lu Chen.
