章節 731: Chapter 730: Love, deeply etched into the bone! (Part 1)_1

What could the Empress Dowager possibly mean by this action?

Earlier, when His Majesty had arranged for Mrs. Hwa, wife of State Duke Hua, to welcome her, she thought that His Majesty's treatment of her cousin was quite good. But then, what did he mean by conveying that message to her through the eunuch? For a moment, her heart was in turmoil.
