Just as the task was about to be completed, the Old Palace Maid secretly rejoiced in her heart and was preparing to give one last effort to kill the Empress. Suddenly, she felt a pain in her back and fell backward, losing consciousness.
"Huff huff…!" The Empress, who was about to stop breathing, felt the white silk around her neck loosen. She couldn't care about anything else and gasped desperately.
"Empress Mother, Empress Mother, are you okay?"
A familiar voice came to her ears, and the Empress could hardly believe her own ears, thinking she must have died.
"Imperial Son, is it you?" She couldn't care about catching her breath anymore and hurriedly climbed up, turning her head to look…
The Fourth Prince was dressed in red, looking at her with concern.
"Imperial Son, it's really you who has returned, this is wonderful, I've missed you so much," the Empress tightly held the Fourth Prince in her arms.
