Growing up in Shoukang Palace, Toya dotes on the best;

The empress dowager pained her words, and the heart of Rong'er ached.

Within the empress dowager's Shoukang Palace.

”This longevity … it cries everyday … Toya and I are almost tortured to death by this little fellow.” Her Majesty smiled at Rong'er.

Rong'er replied, ”That's strange. Changsheng is different from his elder brother. Back then, Cheng Rui and Sai Yinming were both much more obedient. They don't like to cause trouble, but I don't know why Changsheng likes to cry so much.”

”That's right, it's all thanks to Toya. She really takes good care of him. She often guards this little guy together with the wet nurse, haha.” The empress dowager looked at the smiling figure on the warm brick bed and said, ”Your first wife is here. Stop crying and you'll torment us. Look, you're still smiling.”

Rong'er looked gratefully at Toya, ”It's really been hard on you.”

With a faint smile on her face, Toya lightly shook her head. She was only twelve years old, perhaps because of a Mongolian girl. She was quite tall, and with the addition of this incident, her expression was always so humble and mature.

The empress dowager laughed heartily. ”I think that Toya is as carefree as a feather. Heh.”

Toya nodded lightly, lost in her memories, reminded her of her brother Burney's child, in the Mongol palace, when everything was fine, her brother Burney had just had a son, she was a sister-in-law, and often went to see that little child, but the upheavals in the family made everything disappear, and the child went with them, and she knew that it was his brother who betrayed the emperor, all the men in the household were killed by the emperor, and her mother, all the women in the household, became slaves, and for a few days she didn't know how to do it, she suddenly felt frightened, but she was really too good to the empress dowager, and sometimes she could live bravely in the palace with him. Had her brother been deceived by the bad guys? Having been in the palace for so long, she knew from the mouths of others that the Emperor was really good. Why did her brother act like this, bringing misfortune to the entire family? Unfortunately, no one could answer her answer …

”Toya …” Rong'er called out softly again, as if her mind was wandering.

”Oh, Young Lord Rong, do you have any orders?” Rong'er's gentle voice pulled her back from her memories.

”It's nothing. What I'm saying is that I'll have to trouble you more with my longevity in the future. What were you thinking just now?” Rong'er chuckled.

Toya gently shook her head, ”No …” ”Nothing much, taking care of the prince is Toya's duty, Young Master Rong need not worry.”

”Reporting to the empress dowager, Yi Fei requests an audience!” A palace maid came in to report.

The empress dowager smiled as she said, ”Yi Fei has come. Quickly let her in.”

Not long after, Yi Feifei slowly walked in. Rong'er saw that she was dressed in a goose-yellow banner with a white handkerchief in her hands, and her already delicate body seemed even more delicate and beautiful when matched with this light colored makeup. ”Chenqie greets the empress dowager.” Yi Feifei said softly. The empress dowager hastened to say, ”Hurry up and dispense with the formalities. Your empress dowager's heart hurts to see you so weak. Hurry and sit.”
