174 Fate of Sisters

“The eunuch should have finished delivering the imperial edict to the Zhao residence, right? Panpan is the crown princess, right? I have been waiting for this day for a long time.” The empress was looking at her newly painted nails with a smile. The palace maids who came back from scouting were trembling, and even their lips were trembling as if they had seen a ghost.

The empress did not notice anything wrong with the palace maid and was still immersed in joy. “I and Panpan have some mother and child affinity, what do you think?” As usual, the empress asked the palace maids in the palace, but after waiting for a long time, the palace maids did not answer. She frowned and felt a little uncomfortable. In the past, no matter what she said, there would be people agreeing. However, at this time, the palace maids were all trembling in fear. Even when they knelt, it was obvious that their bodies were trembling.

“The empress is asking you a question. Are you mute?” The nanny by the empress ‘side frowned, feeling uneasy.

At this moment, the palace maid raised her trembling head and stuttered, “This… The empress and Miss Panpan are probably fated to be sisters.” After she finished speaking, she kowtowed with all her might until her head was covered in blood. “Please spare my life, Your Majesty. This servant has gone out to inquire. Miss Panpan has not been bestowed a marriage to His Highness the crown prince, but…” The palace maid trembled all over, not even daring to raise her head to look at the Empress.

The empress’s heart skipped a beat, and her long nails broke. “But what? Who did the emperor give Panpan to? Hurry up and tell me!” She stood up in a hurry, her expression not too good. She got up too quickly and broke the teacup on the table.

“His Majesty didn’t bestow a marriage to Miss Panpan. She…” The palace maid did not dare to say it. Should she tell the empress that the little girl she had raised, the little girl she had wanted to leave for the crown prince to become the crown princess, had been taken by the emperor? S good daughter-in-law had become a sister who served the same man in the blink of an eye?

After a long time, the palace maid closed her eyes and summoned up her courage, “Your Majesty the empress, Miss Panpan has been kept in the palace by His Majesty the emperor! She has become His Majesty’s woman!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the empress was dumbfounded. It was as if she had been struck by lightning. She was completely dumbfounded. A chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. Her whole body was numb and she had no reaction. Zhao Panpan had entered the palace and gained the title of ‘Pure Consort’, becoming the emperor’s woman!

“Impossible, no no no, it can’t be. The emperor promised me to give Panpan to the Crown Prince to be the crown prince’s Princess!” The Empress roared and seemed to have gone mad, “It can’t be. Someone must have faked His Majesty’s decree. This Prince will personally go and ask what is going on with His Majesty! Let’s see who’s so bold to fake an imperial edict!” After the empress finished speaking, she ran out in a daze. The nanny’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly went up to support her.

The empress’s face was pale, and even heavy makeup could not cover it. The nanny held her, and she could feel her trembling.

The empress grabbed the nanny’s arm tightly. “The person who passed the imperial edict must have passed the wrong one, right? Why would the Emperor leave Panpan in the palace? The emperor knows that I have always treated Panpan as my daughter. The emperor would not do this. Panpan is so well-behaved and obedient, how could she enter the palace to become the emperor’s concubine? There must be a misunderstanding, right?” The empress’s lips were trembling. It was as if there was thunder in the sky, and she kept feeling that the lightning would strike her head.

The nanny did not say anything, but her heart sank. She was more rational toward Zhao Panpan and was not as crazy as the empress. In the empress’s heart, everything Zhao Panpan did was right. It was as if she had automatically filtered out all the bad things. However, as an outsider, the nanny could see that the empress truly loved Zhao Panpan. However, Zhao Panpan was not necessarily the same. That little girl was very ambitious.

“Don’t panic, Your Majesty. You’ll know once you ask His Majesty. You and the emperor have been husband and wife for many years, and now you only have one son, the crown prince. His Majesty will not let you be bitterly disappointed.” The little prince had been taken away by Fang Yu, and the Crown Prince was the only royal bloodline in the entire palace. The emperor naturally valued the crown prince even more.

The empress was slightly relieved after hearing this, but the violent beating of her heart still made her uneasy, as if something was going further and further away.

“Your Majesty, His Majesty is discussing state affairs with General Zhao Ruifeng.” The eunuch blocked the door and stopped the empress from meeting the emperor
