“Mother, it’s only right for me to kneel. You’re the only Old Madam in the General’s Residence, and you’re my only mother!”

When Ning Feng said this, Ning Yue clearly saw tears in his eyes.

Men did not cry easily unless they were depressed.

Ning Feng must have regretted it.

“Leave. I won’t return to the General’s Residence with you,” said An Ning.

“Mother, you’re the only Old Madam in the General’s Residence. If you don’t go back, what will happen to me?” Ning Feng was anxious. How could he let his mother wander outside?

“Do you know how much despair I was in when I realized I wasn’t dead? I prayed every day. I prayed that the heavens would let you and your father discover that I was still alive. It’s been more than twenty years and none of you have discovered it. No one has come looking for me. It was Yueyue who found me and saved me from hell.”

“I blame your father and you for this. You’ve already grown up. You’re almost in charge of the general’s residence. If it weren’t for your momentary negligence, wouldn’t you have known that I was being moved out?”

“The tombs you built for me are all empty. All these years, you actually didn’t realize. That’s why my heart is dead. I won’t return to that place in the General’s Residence that makes my heart ache.”

An Ning cried when she said this, and tears kept falling.

Ning Feng was also crying. He kept kowtowing to An Ning. “Mother, I was wrong. I was wrong. Please forgive me.”

“Alright, stop kowtowing.” An Ning stopped Ning Feng.

“After being saved by Yueyue, I’ve also thought it through. I don’t blame or hate you, so there’s no need for us to meet again. I planned to see you this time because Yueyue said something. You don’t have to come again.”

Just as Ning Feng was about to say something, An Ning started chasing him away.

“Mother, punish me. You can’t abandon me.” Ning Feng was unwilling to leave.

Ning Yue felt upset. The dignified Great General Zhen Bei was actually crying like a child.

An Ning was about to say something when a dignified female voice came in. “I was wondering who it was. So it was General Zhenbei.”

The three of them looked over at the same time. They did not expect the person to be the Empress Dowager.

Ning Yue was shocked. Could the Empress Dowager leave the palace as she pleased? Furthermore, she had only brought one palace maid along.

“Empress Dowager!” Ning Yue stepped forward to bow.

“Don’t. I’m not the Empress Dowager now. I’m just a passing guest who wants to stay for the night.” The Empress Dowager pulled Ning Yue back.

“General, you heard it too. I’m going to stay here. Are you planning to cause trouble for a long time?” the Empress Dowager asked Ning Feng.

With the Empress Dowager’s order, Ning Feng had no choice but to get up. He took a deep breath and said to An Ning, “Mother, I’ll come to visit you when I’m free in a few days. You have to take care of yourself.”

After Ning Feng finished speaking to An Ning, he said to Ning Yue, “Yueyue, take good care of Grandmother.”

In the end, he bowed to the Empress Dowager. “Empress Dowager, I’ll take my leave.”

After Ning Feng left, Ning Yue asked the Empress Dowager, “Empress Dowager, why are you here?”

The Empress Dowager pretended to be angry and tapped Ning Yue’s nose. “Why are you calling me Empress Dowager? Call me Grandmother with Xiao Ying.”

“Grandmother…” Ning Yue called out a little guiltily. What did the Empress Dowager mean?

“Good girl, good girl!” The empress dowager patted Ning Yue’s head happily. “Our Yueyue is just outstanding.”

“Grandmother, why are you here?” Ning Yue asked again.

“Oh, I’m not feeling well. I left the palace after taking the emperor’s token. I planned to let you take a look at me. The group of imperial physicians in the palace are all quacks.”

The Empress Dowager’s words made Ning Yue not know how to respond. She swallowed and asked, “Empress Dowager, does the Emperor know that you’re here?”

“Didn’t I tell you that I only came out after taking his token?” The Empress Dowager suddenly became serious. “I’m telling you, don’t tell anyone about me being at your house.”

As soon as the Empress Dowager said that, Ning Yue knew that no one in the palace knew about the Empress Dowager’s trip.

The token in the Empress Dowager’s hand had not been given by the emperor either. It had probably been secretly taken by the Empress Dowager. With the Empress Dowager’s status, no one dared to stop her.

“Then why don’t you come to the living room? I’ll introduce my family to you,” Ning Yue said to the empress dowager with a smile.

“Alright! Then don’t expose my identity. Otherwise, everyone will become much more restrained when they gather,” the Empress Dowager said happily.
