Chapter 581 - 295: Exclusion_3
The Empress Dowager had also realized what was happening and after speaking for a while, she waved for them to disperse.
They had just left the side hall when they heard cries of alarm from the palace maids and eunuchs in the main hall, followed by the laughter of several children. One child even said, "Elder brother, you’re so big and you still don’t watch where you’re going. The New Year is almost upon us, and if you had knocked over the Imperial Great Grandmother’s Duobao Pavilion, that’d be really unlucky."
"Elder brother" surely referred to the Emperor’s eldest grandson, Zhu Sujin.
The Empress Dowager asked, "What’s going on?"
An eunuch from the main hall entered the side hall to report, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, it was Prince Ning’s Heir who was not paying attention and nearly stumbled."
"Just not paying attention?" the Empress Dowager asked.
"This... This slave deserves to die, this slave also did not notice," the eunuch knelt down.
Although Pan Yue wasn’t the smartest, she could tell that Zhu Sujin was being wronged and burst into tears. She said, "They’re bullying Jinwa, they’re bullying Jinwa." She then said to the Empress Dowager, "The Emperor’s Maternal Grandmother, please help Jinwa."
Qian Yixiu’s eyes also reddened, but she managed to hold back her tears from falling. This was only what she’d witnessed herself; who knew how much more Zhu Sujin had suffered in her absence.
