Chapter 474: A Royal Decree 19

Linquan Village.

When Madam Liang noticed her mother-in-law was not at lunch, she quietly asked Qi Yuanxiu, "Where's Mother? How come she's not here?"

Staring at the heavy rain outside while eating polenta, Qi Yuanxiu answered, "She said that she was going to her uncle's house this morning and would only be back in a few days."

Madam Wu woke up groggily. She felt dizzy and disoriented, and she did not know where she was. It seemed to be… a ruined temple?

Why was she in a ruined temple?

She remembered that she had left the village early that morning.
