Chapter 1770: The Other Version Is RealEditor: Henyee Translations

It was said that the Changle Palace had encountered an assassin at that time. The palace maid was also a spy. Both sides cooperated and wanted the Empress Dowager’s life.

If the young princess had not sneaked in, the empress dowager would have died.

At that time, after the imperial physician diagnosed the empress dowager, he said that if it was half an hour later, even if the divine doctor came, he would not be able to save her.

However, there was another version of this matter. Gu Yundong had asked Qin Wenzheng about it. Although Qin Wenzheng had not told her clearly, his gaze revealed that the other version was real.

Assassins and spies did not exist at all.

The real situation was very unbelievable. The Empress Dowager’s assassination was clearly the decree of the late emperor.

At that time, the late emperor was not dead, but he also knew that he did not have many days left to live. The current Empress Dowager was only the Empress at that time and had a noble status. Her son was about to ascend to the throne and would soon become the most respected woman in the Dajin Dynasty. No one could anger her anymore.

Although she tried her best to control her emotions at that time, every time she went to treat the late emperor, she would still be an eyesore.

The late emperor felt unbalanced. If he was about to die, as his wife, shouldn’t she accompany him? Why should she still enjoy the good days that followed?

The late emperor had become very extreme before he died, but no matter how extreme he was, he knew that if he openly issued a decree for the empress to be buried with him, not to mention that there was no such precedent and rule, even the court officials and commoners would not agree.

Moreover, the Empress had the Crown Prince as her biological son.

Although the Crown Prince was usually obedient and respected him as his father, that was only because he was his father. If his father wanted his mother’s life, the Crown Prince would probably not let his father live the last days.

Hence, the late emperor came up with a bad idea to let the Empress Dowager die for love.

This was also why there was no one in Changle Palace when the empress dowager was in trouble. There were even palace maids outside who blocked the way of the princess consort because this was the doing of the late emperor.

However, this plan was ruined by the young princess.

When the late emperor heard this news, he couldn’t breathe and went straight away. He couldn’t even hold on for the last few days.

Therefore, the young princess was the Empress Dowager’s savior. Coupled with the fact that her father was the royal prince, this princess deserved her title.

The Empress Dowager liked her very much and treated her as her biological granddaughter.

Even if Yi Zilan was not doted on, no one could shake the little princess’s position.

But since the young lady wanted to improve, Gu Yundong would not stop her.

"Alright, work hard to do whatever you want in the future."

The Little Princess nodded vigorously. "I will learn from Sister Yundong."

Gu Yundong laughed. "Sister Yundong still has something on. Why don’t you follow Shuitao around the courtyard and go back with Sister Yundong later? I have a younger sister called Keke. She’s about the same age as you. You can play together then."

The young princess’s eyes lit up when she heard that the child was the same age as her.

Yes, Sister Yundong’s sister must be very powerful too.

Gu Yunke, who was catching fish with her bare hands in the small courtyard, sneezed loudly. Then, the fish that she had finally caught escaped.

The Little Princess left with Zhong Ran. With Yi Zilan’s guards by their side, they did not have to worry too much.

When they could no longer be seen, Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan looked at each other. The two of them went to a remote woodshed that was a distance away from the backyard.
