    Old Master Qiao was chased away unwillingly.


    Gu Nuo’er covered her mouth with her small hand and chuckled.


    Then, shey down and rolled into the soft nket.


    Old Madam Qiaoy down beside her and gently patted the child.


    There was only one light left in the room. The light was warm and carried a softness that made people sleepy.


    Old Madam Qiao’s white hair looked even more benevolent in this light and shadow.


    Gu Nuo’er wasn’t sleepy at all. She blinked her watery eyes and asked, “Grandma, who nted that tree in the school?”


    Old Madam Qiao’s gently patting hand paused and her smile faded. “Nuo’er really wants to know?”


    Gu Nuo’er nodded.


    Her eyes were serious and flickered with curiosity.


    Old Madam Qiao couldn’t help but sigh softly.


    She looked at the bed curtains, her gaze bing distant, as if she was looking back at decades ago.


    “That tree was nted by an old friend called Chi Fu. She was once Grandma’s close friend. At the same time, she is also Nuo’er’s imperial grandmother, thete empress.”


    After saying that, Old Madam Qiao shushed her. “However, you can’t say this to outsiders. This is because before thete empress passed away, she was stripped of her title and sent to the cold pce.”


    Even until her death, she was only conferred the title of Empress Yi’an Huishu. Gu Nuo’er widened her ck eyes. “She’s my… imperial grandmother?”


    The child asked curiously, “What did she do wrong that Imperial Grandpa wanted to send her to the cold pce?”


    Old Madam Qiao pulled up the nket for the child.


    As the lights and shadows intertwined, she smiled bitterly.


    “This is how it is in the pce. Womenpete with each other in scheming ways. The winner enjoys wealth and glory, while the loser can only die with regrets for the rest of their lives.


    “At that time, it was said that in order to defeat Consort Yu, who had received all of the emperor’s love at that time, thete empress didn’t hesitate to persecute her biological son and wanted to frame Consort Yu.


    “However, there were many suspicious points about this matter back then.


    However, at that time, thete emperor firmly believed Consort Yu’s words. Moreover, the person who jumped out to identify her was actually thete empress’s trusted maidservant who had started serving her back before she had gotten married.


    “They were originally a young couple and had been together for a long time. Logically speaking, their rtionship should be stronger than gold. However, because of such a matter, thete emperor was angry and sent thete empress into the cold pce.


    “At first, she wasn’t stripped of her title. However, thete Empress refused to admit her mistake and refused to confess. Thete emperor seemed to be angry with her and neither of them was willing to lower their heads until thete emperor abolished her empress title and forced her to hand over the pce’s golden seal.”


    Gu Nuo’er listened attentively.


    She turned over and rested her chin on her small hand, fluttering her long eyshes quietly as she looked at her grandmother.


    When Old Madam Qiao talked about the past, she recalled how isted and helpless her good friend Chi Fu was in the cold pce back then!


    She couldn’t help but tear up.


    She felt sad for her friend’s helplessness and also felt helpless for not being able to help her friend!


    “Thete empress suffered from a mental illness in the cold pce. After she fainted for the first time, when the imperial physician went to take her pulse, he found out that her internal organs had been damaged and it was toote for treatment.”


    Gu Nuo’er’s ck eyes revealed a hint of heartache.


    Her voice was soft. “The cold pce is very miserable. I know that. I heard from


    Elder Sister Wanyin that before I was born, many consort mothers were locked up by Father. Very few of them came out alive.”


    Old Madam Qiao carried the child in her arms and patted her back gently.


    “That’s right. That ce is filled with coldness, hunger, and the cold eyes of servants. One has to experience the most lonely days and nights. No matter how strong one’s temperament is, they will still bepletely defeated..”
