If Emperor Yue had not genuinely loved her, perhaps her mother would still be alive. Her husband came from a noble family as well. If it weren't for the ridiculous accusations of infidelity, and their aftermath, they surely would have spent their whole lives together.
Empress Dowager continued to chat with Jiang Shu until dusk when she could no longer clearly see his face. At that, she abruptly pulled herself back to reality, resumed her dignified manner, and said seriously, "Did I ramble on too much just now? It's common for the old to do so. Princely Heir of Duke of Qi, please do not take what I said to heart. Please take your leave."
Jiang Shu respectfully knelt and kowtowed three times before her: "My memory is not very good; once I walk out this door, everything will be forgotten. Empress Dowager, please take care of your health. Perhaps Luoluo and I will be blessed with a child soon. At that time, we will need the Empress Dowager to grant us a name."
