Inside the wide-mouthed porcelain fish tank filled with shallow water, a red koi suddenly flicked its tail, splashing water onto the Empress Dowager of Yan's hand, pulling her back to her senses.
"This beast..." The personal palace maid next to the Empress Dowager of Yan hurriedly stepped forward to take the fish food from the Empress Dowager's hand, pulled out a handkerchief to wipe her hand, and ordered someone to prepare clothes immediately to assist the Empress Dowager to change.
However, the Empress Dowager of Yan seemed absent-minded, pulling her hand away from the maid's hand and asked, "Has the Ninth Prince... already reached outside the Imperial Palace? I heard Ah Li personally led the court officials to greet him. Why hasn't anyone come to tell me if the Ninth Prince has arrived?"
