Empress Chu was woken from her sleep by someone calling out to her.
When the Palace Attendant told her that Emperor Shengping was coming over, Empress Chu was quite surprised.
After all, Emperor Shengping doted on Imperial Concubine Tian, and he would never visit Changle Palace without a pressing reason.
Empress Chu wondered whether something had happened in the palace, or if Imperial Concubine Tian had harmed someone again?
While thinking, she dressed and put on makeup.
Emperor Shengping arrived before Empress Chu had finished dressing.
Upon entering Changle Palace and seeing Empress Chu's wrinkled eyes and significantly aged appearance, for some reason, he felt a piercing sorrow in his heart.
"Aya."
Unable to restrain himself, Emperor Shengping called out Empress Chu's pet name.
Empress Chu was also stunned upon hearing this.
