Empress Xiande walked in the night. The wind brushed past her face. The short dizziness from the wine was slowly gone, replaced by the annoying soberness.

She held the railing by the pond and let out a long sigh.

She knew that the words tonight were said in a fit of anger. However, she was extremely afraid at the thought of Emperor Yong Let s death. She wanted to avoid that outcome and refused to look or listen. However, Emperor Yong Le took the initiative to mention it every time they talked, forcing her to face what she did not want to face.

Nanny Tao said, “Your Majesty, it’s cold outside. Let’s go back first.”

Empress Xiande shook her head. There was a string of prayer beads on her wrist. Every night, she would hold the prayer beads and chant the Buddhist scriptures, praying that the heavens would take pity on Emperor Yong Le and let a miracle happen.

She turned around, wanting to walk back. Unexpectedly, she heard a crackling sound. She looked down and saw that the string of the prayer beads had broken at some point. The prayer beads fell to the ground, scattering everywhere.

Why would the string of the prayer beads break for no reason?

“Nanny Tao…” Empress Xiande muttered, feeling inexplicably uneasy and suffocated.

“Your Majesty!” Nanny Tao was shocked and quickly came forward to help her. Empress Xiande waved her hand and squatted down in a panic. “Quick, help me pick it up..

As soon as Nanny Tao squatted down, she saw a young eunuch run over in a hurry. He looked terrified and said, “His Majesty is not in a critical condition. Please go and take a look!”

Empress Xiande had just picked up a prayer bead. Hearing this, she subconsciously let go of it. The prayer bead rolled on the ground and fell into the pond. It sank into the water and was gone.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation was filled with the kneeling eunuchs and palace.

Eunuch Deng stood in a corner of the room with his head lowered, looking very sad.

When Empress Xiande entered, Gao Zhan had just come out. When he saw her, he shook his head.

Empress Xiande suddenly staggered. Fortunately, she held Nanny Tao’s hand and did not fall.

After a while, she said, “All of you, leave.”

Emperor Yong Le, who was on the bed, also waved his hand.

Everyone in the room left.

Empress Xiande went forward.

She walked extremely slowly, as if she was resisting to reach a destination that she did not want to reach. However, she had no choice but to walk forward. When she reached the bed, she half-knelt and looked at the person on it.

Emperor Yong Le also looked at her. After a while, he smiled and said, “Fortunately, before I go, I finally drank your snow brew.”

“Your Maiestv…” EmDress Xiande looked at him with tears in her eves..
