These words sounded incredibly annoying to the Empress Dowager, and also quite perfunctory.
But thankfully, the Empress Dowager was quite an old Jiang; she held it in and continued pretending to be sincere.
"Sigh!"
"The matters of the past were all my fault, Lady Manman, I owe you a title!"
"Now, I want to make up for this regret, would you be willing?"
The woman called Manman stood there very awkwardly, her eyes full of confusion.
She clutched her handkerchief with both hands and, after a long while, slowly bowed and said,
"It's entirely up to the Empress Dowager!"
Xia Ruqing: "..."
This is utterly insane!
It's heard of sending young girls to the Emperor, but sending old women to the Emperor is a first.
Tsk tsk tsk, she has certainly opened her eyes.
"Emperor, what's your opinion?"
The Empress Dowager then looked at Zhao Junyao.
Zhao Junyao's face darkened and he remained silent.
He indeed had a pained expression, but his eyes were full of reluctance.
