Chapter 803: Courting Death

The commoners who were left behind could not help but worry when they saw this scene. It was not until they saw Xuanyuan Qi alight from the carriage to be examined that everyone was slightly relieved.

Since the emperor of a country followed the procedures, the others naturally had to follow. Empress Dowager Zhou was helped out of the carriage by Nanny Gao and Xuanyuan Ye.

When she walked up to Ji Luo, Empress Dowager Zhou paused and reached out with a complicated expression.

Ji Luo didn't even look up. She took out a handkerchief and prepared to cover her wrist. Xuanyuan Ye took out her handkerchief and covered it first. When she met Ji Luo's gaze, she explained, "I think many people have used Madam's handkerchief before."

Ji Luo reached out to check Empress Dowager Zhou's pulse nonchalantly and said indifferently, "Indeed, the emperor used it just now."

"What's wrong? If the emperor can use it, why can't Empress Dowager Zhou use it?" she thought.
