When Ye Huan returned to the Capital City, the night had silently faded away.
A pale dawn spread across the sky.
The Empress had been injected with a powerful anesthetic, leaving her in a deep coma, showing no signs of waking.
Taking her to handle business while she's unconscious was evidently not a good idea.
Thus, Ye Huan first went to a temporary residence he'd acquired—an estate named Cloud Palace at the top of a hill on the outskirts of the Capital City—and settled the Empress in a bedroom upstairs.
"Is she okay?" Liu Tianyun and the other women were dressing up for work. Seeing Ye Huan bring the unconscious Empress home, they were a bit concerned.
The Empress had stayed for a while at Tingxiang Pavilion a year ago.
All the women, except for Dragon Fragrance and Shen Taoyuan, knew her.
Liu Tianyun had learned through Ye Huan, while at the Spring Welfare Institute, that she was her clone.
It was unexpected that upon meeting once again, she would be in such a state.
