Back then, because of the Ning family's meritorious accomplishments, even though Ning Wanyu was raised in the countryside, the Empress Dowager didn't mind and insisted the Emperor bring her into the capital to make her Empress.
Who could have predicted that this move would lead to a good girl's tragic death?
The Empress's eyes flickered with fear but showed no guilt. In her heart, killing Ning Wanyu was an insignificant matter, not even worth mentioning.
It was the confusion of the royal bloodline that could cause her and her son to end up with nowhere to be buried after death.
But she still wanted to fight. As long as she didn't admit it, no one could claim her son wasn't Emperor Zhong's. That was the one good thing about the Plant Plane: the power of bloodline could not be traced at all.
"Empress Dowager, what are you talking about? I don't understand. Zun'er is His Majesty's legitimate son. How could you unjustly accuse your own blood grandson like this without evidence?"
