Empress Dowager Mo was concerned for her son, but seeing him return safely set her mind at ease, so she urged him to go back to the residence to freshen up and rest.
"Royal Mother, what about Wufu?"
"Look at you, why the hurry? Wait a few days, and I'll summon her to the palace to meet her. Then, I'll have your Imperial Brother issue a decree, so there won't be any gossip," Empress Dowager Mo said.
Ah Jiu sheepishly grinned and bowed, taking his leave, glancing at Nanny Shui before he left.
Nanny Shui's heart skipped as she was about to say to send him out, but Empress Dowager Mo instructed a Palace Maid to escort Ah Jiu, while she took Nanny Shui to look at the jewelry and other things found earlier.
Ah Jiu had no choice but to temporarily set aside his doubts and leave the palace to return to the residence.
