Chapter 783: The Imperial Family’s Majesty
Princess Mingzhu was waiting in the palace for her G.o.d to come save her. She felt like she was about to suffocate in this place. Everyone here were so cold and apathetic, it had none of the general’s residence’s warmth.
Princess Mingzhu really missed An You. The empress dowager had her pray for blessings in the wors.h.i.+p hall and wouldn’t let her go out. Princess Mingzhu was in great pain because the empress dowager wouldn’t let her return to the general’s residence.
Every time palace maids brought meals to the wors.h.i.+p hall, Princess Mingzhu would kowtow to the palace maids and beseech them.
“Please, I’m begging you, won’t you let me go find An You?”
“I’ll give you money, can you let me out?”
“I need to find my younger brother, where is he? He’ll be very sad without me by his side.”
When the young palace maids saw a princess kneel down to them and kowtow, they were so frightened that their faces went pale. They immediately knelt down and kowtowed, asking the princess not to make things hard for them.
However, once this scene repeated every single day for a while, these palace maids got used to Princess Mingzhu’s kneeling and kowtowing. Their eyes even contained traces of disdain.
She was a princess, yet she was kowtowing to servants like them. All she talked about was General An, General An. She talked about a man all day, it was seriously shameless.
Her younger brother was clearly doing fine in the palace, but she was acting like they had done something to her younger brother, as if this imperial palace was some place terrifying.
The empress dowager was just having Princess Mingzhu pray for blessings for her deceased relatives, but this Princess Mingzhu was always crying and weeping like she was completely heartbroken. It made the empress dowager very vexed.
In the past, the empress dowager hadn’t interacted with Princess Mingzhu much. After she arrived from Cloud Province, after that brief meeting, Princess Mingzhu was bundled up and sent to the general’s residence.
Every time Princess Mingzhu saw the empress dowager, she would abruptly drop to her knees, then repeatedly kowtow hard without seeming to have any sense of pain. Afterwards, she’s tearfully say something like, Your Highness Empress Dowager, you’re so benevolent, so n.o.ble and kind, you’ve definitely also experienced such unforgettable love, blah blah blah. Then with tears streaming down her pained face, she’d ask to be allowed to go find General An.
The empress dowager was about to have a heart attack due to being angered by Princess Mingzhu, especially since every time Princess Mingzhu talked to her, she insisted on tugging at her skirt and tilting her head up to look towards her in such a lowly manner. It was like if she made her words just a slight bit harsher, Princess Mingzhu would burst out crying.
There was no trace of the imperial family’s majesty at all. The empress dowager was so angry her lungs were about to explode. She directly locked Mingzhu up in the wors.h.i.+p hall. When she heard that Princess Mingzhu kept asking for An You, she started feeling that the general’s residence had impure motives.
Ning Shu and the old madame were summoned to the palace by the empress dowager. Right after they said their greetings, the empress dowager started roaring at them and berating them.
The old madame and Ning Shu lay prostrate on the ground. The old madame’s entire body was trembling. Ning Shu saw out of the corner of her eye that the old madame’s forehead was covered with sweat.
#comment: Mm, but the imperial palace is a terrifying place.
