Su Jingshu and Achang arrived at the Emperor's bedroom only to learn that Xiao Jun'an had already passed away.
Being a woman herself, Su Jingshu sensitively sensed the gloomy emotions emanating from Huo Yuning.
She stepped forward and asked softly, "Anuan, are you alright?"
"Aunt Su, I'm leaving."
Huo Yuning smiled, her eyes calm and tinged with a cold light.
Su Jingshu remained silent for a moment before nodding, "Leaving might be for the best; this place was never your home."
Huo Yuning added, "Before I leave, I will awaken Nangong Chang's memories, hoping you two can assist the Little Crown Prince in ascending the throne until he is old enough to rule independently."
"Alright—"
Su Jingshu turned back to look at the Little Eunuch behind her and nodded in agreement.
It would only be a span of ten years.
With a loved one by her side, it wouldn't be boring.
