349 Surprise (first update) _2

The emperor's laughter looked even worse than his crying.

The officials couldn't help but sigh - the empress dowager really dotes on this son of hers!

It seems that after the misunderstanding of the empress dowager poisoning the young master of Zhaodu was lifted, the relationship between mother and son had indeed softened a lot!

Gu Jiao knew nothing about the happenings inside the palace. After sending Little Jing Kong off to study at Guozijian, she made a trip to the Medical Hall.

She found that the Medical Hall often had more patients in the morning, and was slightly quieter in the afternoon. The young girl from the women's school who sometimes came to play the zither in the next room was now nowhere to be heard.

She attempted to let Little Jiang Li learn the zither, but the young girl was only interested in herbal medicine, learning to play the zither proved to be even more challenging than learning to write for her.
