Bai Ruozhu suddenly realized, "So, the princess wasn't his offspring, and that's why it failed and she died?"
Jianqi nodded, "The rumors say as much."
"And if it had been successful, how long could the Emperor have lived? What would have happened to the princess who had the witchcraft transferred onto her?" Bai Ruozhu suddenly asked, her expression turning solemn.
"I heard the Emperor could prolong his life by ten years, but this subordinate does not understand witchcraft, nor knows its truth. As for the person to whom it is transferred, I'm afraid it won't end well for them," Jianqi answered, then suddenly looked up, "Master, are you thinking of Princess Diao Bin?"
Jianqi's voice dropped to a whisper, knowing that such matters concerning the Royal Family had to be handled with the utmost caution.
