...
In another location, within the Queen Mother's palace.
The news of Sui Zimo's return was known to everyone in the palace, and as the true master of the harem, the Queen Mother naturally received the news immediately.
"He's back? And he brought that female physician with him?"
"Yes, Your Highness, Prince Mo returned with the female physician, and both of them entered Prince Mo's Mansion together," the old nanny by the Queen Mother's side responded.
"Heh."
Upon hearing the nanny's words, the Queen Mother let out a soft chuckle.
"He has really grown capable, hasn't he, to have brought the female physician whom so many wish to win over into his mansion."
As far as she was aware, even the Emperor wanted to have that female physician enter the palace. Although she did not know what exactly was on the Emperor's mind, it could only be one of two things:
One was to keep her at the Imperial Medical Bureau; the other was to have her stay directly in the harem.
