Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1090 - 1088: The Young Lady Sent Me to Fetch You

Upon hearing Li Guo’s report, Qiu Xiang and Madam Zhou were both momentarily stunned and then delighted.

"Purple Jade is back? Is the young lady back too?" Qiu Xiang asked Li Guo with a face full of joy.

Madam Zhou was also full of anticipation. It was already May, and more than three months had passed since Wufu left. Now, hearing the news of her daughter’s return, she was naturally overjoyed.

"It seems I haven’t seen the young lady, but Sister Zi Yu is coming to pay her respects to Madam," Li Guo said while looking outside, noticing a graceful figure approaching, exclaiming happily, "Sister Zi Yu is here."

Qiu Xiang quickly went over and personally lifted the curtain, indeed seeing Purple Jade approach, and she became quite excited.

She knew of Purple Jade’s abilities well. Not knowing where she found such a capable person, she was composed and calm, in no way inferior to the young lady. Thus, as the first-class maid beside the young lady, she was genuinely convinced and pleased.

Now that Purple Jade had returned, perhaps the troubling matters in this household could finally be resolved?

"Purple Jade, you’re back," Qiu Xiang said with a smiling face.

Upon seeing her, Purple Jade raised an eyebrow. This person had certainly weathered many storms; why did she seem to regard her as some kind of savior? It seemed that Huayang had indeed been quite eventful these past months.

After exchanging greetings, Purple Jade said, "I will first pay my respects to Madam."

Qiu Xiang nodded, stepping aside to make way.

As Purple Jade entered, she smelled a faint scent of medicine in the air. She sniffed a little, her expression changing slightly, but her steps did not falter as she approached Madam Zhou, curtsying, "This servant Purple Jade greets Madam and pays respects."

"No need for formalities, rise," Madam Zhou quickly raised her hand, eagerly asking, "Where is the young lady? Is she arriving later? Where has she reached?"

Purple Jade smiled and said, "Replying to Madam, this time only this servant and a guard have returned. The young lady is still in Changan City."

Upon hearing this, Madam Zhou was visibly disappointed and said, "Still in Changan? It’s been months. What business is she attending to that she hasn’t returned yet? Does she not miss her mother at all, alas."

"Madam, how could the young lady not miss Madam? Perhaps something is keeping her there, otherwise why would she send Purple Jade back?" Qiu Xiang said with a smile.

Purple Jade nodded with a smile, "Sister Qiu Xiang speaks rightly. Madam, this servant returned this time under the young lady’s command."

"Oh?" Madam Zhou asked curiously, "Is there some matter? Didn’t she usually write everything in letters?"

"Because regarding some matters, the young lady has decided to settle in Changan City, so she sent me back to escort Madam to Changan for a reunion with the young lady," Purple Jade said.

"What did you say?" Madam Zhou stood up abruptly, looking at Purple Jade with wide eyes, unable to believe her ears.

Even Qiu Xiang was extremely surprised. Did she hear it right? They’re to take Madam Zhou to Changan? What is this all about? 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"The young lady instructed me to escort Madam to Changan for a reunion," Purple Jade repeated with a smile.

Madam Zhou fell back into her seat. So it wasn’t a hallucination; it was true. Wufu really intended to bring her to Changan and even sent a capable person to fetch her back.

To Changan?

Madam Zhou was somewhat dazed, touching her lower abdomen. Could this be Heaven’s decree? Was it destined that she and Changan could not be separated? And regarding what was in her belly...

Noticing her actions, Purple Jade’s eyes narrowed and glanced at the bowl on the small table beside her. So it wasn’t her imagination; it really was fetus-preserving medicine? Was Madam pregnant?
