Chapter 1259: Chapter 1259: In Good Health

"The Empress Dowager’s nanny came all this way for my sake. Not going to see her would seem a bit improper."

She tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

Zimo: "..."

This girl clearly looked pleased by the disaster, not at all as if she wanted to go. Clearly, she was preparing to enjoy the drama.

"What is improper is on their part, not yours."

These people had such thick skins, to actually believe that my Sang’er could be seen by anyone who wished. And now they even dared to tread into my mansion.

"Eat first."

"Okay."

Lin Caisang complied.

...

It wasn’t until after the Empress Dowager had finished her evening meal that she finally met with the belatedly arriving Zimo.

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, what brings you to the mansion? Why didn’t you send someone to notify me so that I could have returned immediately from outside?" Upon seeing the Empress Dowager, he spoke up.

By the nanny’s side: "..."

There goes Prince Mo, not only making the Empress Dowager wait for so long, but also starting by accusing her of wrongdoing, even blaming her for not sending notice?

Could it be that all the guards within Prince Mo’s Mansion are just there for show?

However, she wouldn’t dare to voice such thoughts in front of Prince Mo. Otherwise, would she still want to keep her head on her neck?

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager came because she heard that you had returned and wanted to see you," the Empress Dowager said, looking up with a smile at Zimo.

"I hear you brought that female physician into your mansion. Is this true?"

She asked.

"It is true."

Zimo certainly did not deny it, for every spy outside the mansion gates had seen my Caisang enter, so of course, he would not deny it.

"On this trip away from the mansion, I went to Miss Lin’s hometown, and after quite some difficulties, I was able to bring her back."

"Really?"

The expression on the Empress Dowager’s face was quite displeased.

After such difficulties bringing Lin Caisang back, it showed that the young girl had no small amount of skill to have warranted Zimo going to such lengths to invite her.

With Lin Caisang by his side, Zimo was like a man who had grown an extra pair of arms. Before long, he might even learn to fly.

But what could she do about it?

"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, I heard from the guards in the mansion that the Emperor has decreed for Miss Lin to enter the palace to diagnose your illness. Are you feeling unwell again? I have brought Jiang Zuo here, why not let him take a look at you first?"

Thinking this, she then heard Zimo’s voice again.

The Empress Dowager: "..."

Her son was truly digging pits in front of her one after another! How was she to respond? Any response to Zimo’s questions seemed inappropriate, almost as if they were all a facade.

"Don’t listen to your Father Emperor’s nonsense. Your Majesty the Empress Dowager is in robust health, how could I be ill? I’m guessing that it’s one of the noble ladies in the harem who has fallen ill. Your Father Emperor must be anxious, and that’s why he wishes to summon Miss Lin to the palace."

Anyway, since it was all a farce, her explanation hardly mattered. Let’s just leave it at that.

There was one thing, however, that she could discern: although Zimo addressed her as ’Your Majesty the Empress Dowager,’ when referring to the Emperor, he did not use ’Father Emperor.’

It was apparent that he must have discovered something; otherwise, he wouldn’t have made it so obvious in front of her.

"Those women in the harem, they are all precious, but Mo’er, you need not concern yourself with them. Just make sure to arrange things well for Miss Lin in the mansion," she said.

"I will heed the words of Your Majesty the Empress Dowager," Zimo complied.

The women in the harem? Since when did the Emperor start to treat the women in the harem as human beings? And would he issue a special decree to summon my Caisang to the palace just for their sake?
