Xiao Liulang's eyes were deep and calm, like an unfathomable abyss under the moonlit night.
Empress Dowager Jing had moved to the nunnery before Xiao Liulang was born. This was his first time seeing her.
The reason he could confirm that she was indeed the woman he thought she was, there was no second woman in the entire Imperial Palace who dressed as she did.
Xiao Liulang gave a bow, then turned and left the Huaqing Palace.
Eunuch Wei came over with a smile on his face, holding the jade ornament,."Empress Dowager, your jade ornament has been found. It was picked up by Xiao Xiuzhuan in the Imperial Garden."
Empress Dowager Jing looked at Xiao Liulang's retreating figure and murmured, "Xiao, Xiuzhuan?"
After leaving the Imperial Palace, Xiao Liulang first attended his duties at the Hanlin Academy for half a day. When his duties were over, he didn't immediately return to Bishui Alley, but paid a visit to the Minghui Hall at the Guozijian.
