Ah Jiu was summoned by Emperor Yan, and in Cining Palace, only Empress Dowager Mo and her daughter-in-law Wufu were left.
After revealing the secret hidden in her heart, Empress Dowager Mo felt a bit uneasy facing Wufu alone. After all, losing one's virtue is a disgrace for a woman, especially when the person involved is one's stepson, making it utterly shameful.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were silent for a moment until Empress Dowager Mo broke the silence, saying, "Do you think I am filthy?"
Wufu had just taken a sip of tea, and upon hearing this, she spluttered, coughed twice, and wanted to wipe her mouth with a handkerchief, only to realize she had given it to Empress Dowager Mo to wipe her tears, so she used her fingers instead.
Empress Dowager Mo's lips twitched in disdain, "How could you just..." Then, seeing the handkerchief in her hand, she handed it over.
Wufu didn't mind, wiped herself, and said, "Royal Mother, what did you just say?"
