Chapter 67 - 66: What else are you hiding from me?
Lu Ying flipped a page of the Buddhist scripture. "Since the Empress Dowager wants this grandson to guess, it must be someone this grandson knows. Her surname is Shen... Could it be Shen Yinning? This grandson remembers she went to Xiaokan Temple last month."
His tone was calm, but a ripple appeared in his eyes.
So, Shen Yinning’s calligraphy is actually this beautiful.
But she deliberately hid her talent, pretending her handwriting was ugly in front of him.
She deceived him once again.
He should not have softened his heart and allowed Xue Mianmian to visit her in the Shen Garden.
Empress Dowager Li nodded. "Indeed. When I saw her at Xiaokan Temple, I noticed she had become much more composed and dignified compared to three years ago. The Shen Family’s treason ultimately had nothing to do with her; she was merely implicated by her father and brothers. Back then, she was such a proud noble lady, destined to be the mother of a nation, yet who would have thought that she would end up marrying a minor Eighth Rank official? Such a pitiable child."
Lu Ying’s expression remained impassive.
But inwardly, he sneered.
Dignified?
He couldn’t see where Shen Yinning could possibly be considered dignified.
