She held Dahu and Erhu’s hands while lazy Xiaohu was held in the eunuch’s arms.
Xiaohu jumped down and pointed at the big and bright lights. “What is this?”
The Empress Dowager said kindly, “It’s a long light.” Xiaohu only understood the light.
There were also lights at home, but they were not so big.
The Empress Dowager said to the three little ones, “Go and light one too.”
The eunuch in charge brought three long lamps. Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu followed suit.
The Empress Dowager asked the eunuch in charge to set up a futon and said to the three little ones, “Come, kowtow to your grandfather.”
The three little ones were confused and turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao not far away.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.
The three little ones kowtowed clumsily.
It was dark. It was time for the Empress Dowager to return to the palace.
The Empress Dowager couldn’t bear to part with the three children and hugged them tightly.
Deng An came over and knocked on the door. “Physician Su, my young master is preparing to leave the mountain.”
For the safety of the three little ones, Su Xiaoxiao asked Ling Yun to bring them to the temple.
The Empress Dowager’s eyes revealed deep reluctance.
“Empress Dowager,” Su Xiaoxiao said softly. “It’s time to go.”
The Empress Dowager looked at the three little fellows sleeping soundly on the bed. “I’ll take one last look.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “As long as you live well, you will have a chance to meet again in the future.”
The Empress Dowager nodded. “You’re right. There’s still a chance in the future… I want to live. I want to protect them as they grow up. I won’t let anyone hurt them!”
Su Xiaoxiao and Deng An carried the three little ones into Ling Yun’s carriage.
Ling Yun looked at the three traitorous disciples in disdain. “Don’t forget the conditions you agreed to.”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “Ten boxes of snowflake pastries and five boxes of wife cakes. I’ll send them to you tomorrow.”
“That’s more like it.” Ling Yun closed the curtain and left with his three disciples.
The Empress Dowager also got into the carriage back to the palace.
The Empress Dowager desperately wanted to know what all of this was about.
How did Minter escape back then and settle down all these years?
Who was the child’s father? Where was he now?
How did Su Xiaoxiao meet the three children and become their mother?
Just as she was about to speak, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly pressed her wrist.
“EmDress Dowager. no matter what haDDens later. don’t come out of the
carriage.”
“What?”
As soon as the Empress Dowager finished speaking, an arrow shot toward the convoy!
The horse was shocked and let out a shrill roar. The imperial guard on the horse fell.
The leader of the guards drew his sword. “Assassins! Protect the Empress
Dowager!”
As soon as he finished speaking, another wave of arrows shot over. Right on the heels of that, more than ten masked men in black darted out of the forest on both sides.
