Xuanyuan Ce instructed Xuanyuan Ye not to take half a step out of the palace, but he did not say that he would not let the palace maids walk around.
Ruo Mei left the Longevity Palace and bribed an eunuch to deliver the letter to him. The eunuch also bribed a soldier on the city gate tower.
Just like that, Xuanyuan Ye's letter was sent to the safety zone outside the city.
This was not the first time Xuanyuan Ye had written to Empress Dowager Zhou. Eunuch Yu did not think too much about it when he received the letter. He got someone to disinfect the letter first before presenting it to her.
After reading the letter, Empress Dowager Zhou sobbed uncontrollably. "Emperor, where's the emperor? Call the emperor over to see me."
Eunuch Yu was shocked and quickly went to invite Xuanyuan Qi.
When Xuanyuan Qi put down the government affairs in his hand and rushed over, Empress Dowager Zhou was still wiping her tears.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
