章節 78: The Slap

The eldest princess was the former emperor’s only daughter. When the current emperor had ascended the throne, she was renamed Yong Tao the Eldest Princess. She was well loved and spoiled at both the Cheng Wang mansion and the palace.

She would cry for a wilting flower and weep for a river headed east. Of course, this particular trait was known only to her close family members.

She looked at empress dowager and spoke with bitterness hidden in her tone. "How can the emperor, my own brother, choose the Fan family, out of all the possibilities? He knows darn well about the relationship between the Fan family and the prime minister…"

"You may leave." The empress dowager’s eyes flashed open as she spoke in a low, authoritative voice. The housemaids left quietly with no expressions.
