Two days had passed since the emperor was poisoned. Zhuifeng went to investigate the poisoner, while Zhuisu sneaked into Liuxia Palace like a thief every night, searching for the seven-colored lotus. He nearly turned the entire Liuxia Palace upside down, yet the seven-colored lotus was nowhere to be found.
"Master, please forgive me, I am incompetent, I've turned the entire palace inside out, but still have not found it," Zhuisu, dressed in black, knelt on the ground, his expression filled with regret.
Dugu Han snorted coldly, he should have known that old woman was extremely cunning.
"You may leave."
In the afternoon, in a side hall of Liuxia Palace, the Empress Dowager and Dugu sat facing each other, savoring the flower tea in their hands.
"Ah, this flower tea always tastes so refreshing and leaves a lingering fragrance in the mouth," the Empress Dowager greatly enjoyed flower tea, feeling thoroughly relaxed after each cup.
