Old Master Qiao was chased away unwillingly.
Gu Nuo’er covered her mouth with her small hand and chuckled.
Then, she lay down and rolled into the soft blanket.
Old Madam Qiao lay down beside her and gently patted the child.
There was only one light left in the room. The light was warm and carried a softness that made people sleepy.
Old Madam Qiao’s white hair looked even more benevolent in this light and shadow.
Gu Nuo’er wasn’t sleepy at all. She blinked her watery eyes and asked, “Grandma, who planted that tree in the school?”
Old Madam Qiao’s gently patting hand paused and her smile faded. “Nuo’er really wants to know?”
Gu Nuo’er nodded.
Her eyes were serious and flickered with curiosity.
Old Madam Qiao couldn’t help but sigh softly.
She looked at the bed curtains, her gaze becoming distant, as if she was looking back at decades ago.
“That tree was planted by an old friend called Chi Fu. She was once Grandma’s close friend. At the same time, she is also Nuo’er’s imperial grandmother, the late empress.”
After saying that, Old Madam Qiao shushed her. “However, you can’t say this to outsiders. This is because before the late empress passed away, she was stripped of her title and sent to the cold palace.”
Even until her death, she was only conferred the title of Empress Yi’an Huishu. Gu Nuo’er widened her black eyes. “She’s my… imperial grandmother?”
The child asked curiously, “What did she do wrong that Imperial Grandpa wanted to send her to the cold palace?”
Old Madam Qiao pulled up the blanket for the child.
As the lights and shadows intertwined, she smiled bitterly.
“This is how it is in the palace. Women compete with each other in scheming ways. The winner enjoys wealth and glory, while the loser can only die with regrets for the rest of their lives.
“At that time, it was said that in order to defeat Consort Yu, who had received all of the emperor’s love at that time, the late empress didn’t hesitate to persecute her biological son and wanted to frame Consort Yu.
“However, there were many suspicious points about this matter back then.
However, at that time, the late emperor firmly believed Consort Yu’s words. Moreover, the person who jumped out to identify her was actually the late empress’s trusted maidservant who had started serving her back before she had gotten married.
“They were originally a young couple and had been together for a long time. Logically speaking, their relationship should be stronger than gold. However, because of such a matter, the late emperor was angry and sent the late empress into the cold palace.
“At first, she wasn’t stripped of her title. However, the late Empress refused to admit her mistake and refused to confess. The late emperor seemed to be angry with her and neither of them was willing to lower their heads until the late emperor abolished her empress title and forced her to hand over the palace’s golden seal.”
Gu Nuo’er listened attentively.
She turned over and rested her chin on her small hand, fluttering her long eyelashes quietly as she looked at her grandmother.
When Old Madam Qiao talked about the past, she recalled how isolated and helpless her good friend Chi Fu was in the cold palace back then!
She couldn’t help but tear up.
She felt sad for her friend’s helplessness and also felt helpless for not being able to help her friend!
“The late empress suffered from a mental illness in the cold palace. After she fainted for the first time, when the imperial physician went to take her pulse, he found out that her internal organs had been damaged and it was too late for treatment.”
Gu Nuo’er’s black eyes revealed a hint of heartache.
Her voice was soft. “The cold palace is very miserable. I know that. I heard from
Elder Sister Wanyin that before I was born, many consort mothers were locked up by Father. Very few of them came out alive.”
Old Madam Qiao carried the child in her arms and patted her back gently.
“That’s right. That place is filled with coldness, hunger, and the cold eyes of servants. One has to experience the most lonely days and nights. No matter how strong one’s temperament is, they will still be completely defeated..”
