"Empress Mother! Empress Mother! Empress Mother—"
"Empress Mother, I know I was wrong—give me another chance!"
"Just give me another chance, ah... Empress Mother—"
I did give you a chance, from the day you returned, I knew you weren't Ning An.
I also knew that my Ning An probably couldn't return.
The tear I shed was for Ning An.
That night, you went to the Nunnery.
I thought you were simply paying respects to your deceased mother. As her flesh and blood, there's nothing wrong with remembering her. I had no objections.
You once brought me warmth during the days I needed it most. I felt that as long as you didn't kill Ning An, as long as you sincerely wanted to return as a princess, I could accept you.
But why... why did you move against my Jiaojiao with poison! Why did you collude with the people of Yan Country? Why did you harm the Sixth Prince? Why did you commit so many unforgivable acts?

Empress Dowager Zhuang boarded the carriage to return.
