Bab 304: Informing The Plan of Great Empress Dowager

But for some unknown reason, he suddenly nodded, "Yes."

Looking at the Great Empress Dowager, Zhao Yong whispered, "I dare not refuse the Empress Dowager's decree."

"You are indeed a smart person."

Seeing Zhao Yong agree so readily, a satisfied look appeared in the Great Empress Dowager's eyes.

Half a tea time later, Zhao Yong left the Cining Palace.

"Prince, are we going straight back to the Huainan Mansion?"

As they approached the palace gate, Zhao Yong's attendant asked him.

Hearing this, Zhao Yong shook his head and whispered, "To the General's Mansion."

When Zhao Yong entered the plum garden, Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan were brewing tea in the pavilion.

The water used for the tea was snow collected by Yue Er during a snowfall.

When Zhao Yong was led into the pavilion, he saw Xiao Nanye reading in a chair while Jiang Peihuan was preparing tea.
