Nanny Zhang looked up to see the sky suddenly changing color, and before she could comprehend what was happening, she heard a loud RUMBLE.
Then, a Celestial Thunder struck directly in front of them, splitting several large branches of the old locust tree there.
Nanny Zhang instantly turned pale with fright. She gazed up at the sky, noticing that the dark clouds hadn't dispersed yet.
She looked again at the old locust tree that had been struck by lightning. A lingering fear gripped her heart!
"Princess! A few days ago in the Palace, when the incident happened at Fengxian Hall, what were you doing?"
Nanny Zhang inexplicably recalled the moment Fengxian Hall was struck by lightning. She had heard it was precisely when the Empress Dowager was carrying the Eldest Princess to Fengxian Hall to kowtow to the late Emperor.
A wave of unease washed over Nanny Zhang.
"I was kowtowing to Grandfather Emperor and the others!"
