After returning to Yingyue Palace, Nangong Shuangshuang, feeling a bit tired, washed up and spoke with Lady Jing about Cheng Mei Ren and Concubine Yang's matters. Lady Jing couldn't help but sigh with lament for Cheng Mei Ren, while also reflecting on her own situation, causing her mood to become somewhat heavy.
Nangong Shuangshuang thought about the Spring Festival, which also bothered her. Previously, she had thought it simple, believing that since the Emperor had begun to suspect the Empress Dowager, he would quickly deal with her. But from the Emperor's behavior when she left today, it seemed things were not going as well as she had anticipated.
Of course, the Emperor undoubtedly plans to deal with the Empress Dowager. He would never tolerate the Empress Dowager plotting against him and coveting the throne he sits upon, so Nangong Shuangshuang suspected that the Emperor wanted to play a bigger game.
