Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 722 - Out Of The Court

The Queen smiled at Gu Chaoyan and waved her hands. She was telling Gu Chaoyan not to worry about it.

"Zhou Sheng made use of me and my father to get the throne, and now it turns out that he out hated my father and snapped at him too. He is no one to me now. Since I don't care or like this person any more, I will not be saddened by what he does or what he says. I don't have to make any effort to argue with him either," the Queen said with a smile.

"It is a great thing for me to move out of the court and live in the town. It would be better for our plan, but what I worry about most of all is Xunyang and you two. Everything else will not matter."

Gu Chaoyan looked at the Queen. She understood that she had decided not to feel attached to the relationship.

That was good.

The Queen was still young and she could go anywhere she wanted in this world!

Having said this, the Queen asked Gu Chaoyan to leave. "You can leave now, and we have all the time we need to talk with each other in the town."

Gu Chaoyan nodded, took hold of the Queen's hands and said, "Take care."

The Queen nodded again. She had no energy to see her off, so she asked Aunt Nan to walk Gu Chaoyan out.

Aunt Nan and Gu Chaoyan had not met many times, but she liked Gu Chaoyan. She treated her like her own friend. She got her hand-fireplace and umbrella as she walked her out. It was a cold winter's day, and Aunt Nan was worried that Lady Chaoyan would not be able to stand the cold.

When Gu Chaoyan got the hand-fireplace, she felt her heart fill with warmth. She passed a bottle of pills for Aunt Nan. "Aunt Nan, this is for you, you have been taking care of the Queen and if you take a few of the pills, you will feel much better."

Aunt Nan was startled. Then she felt a little embarrassed. She was just a maid and she did not have to eat this.

She was about to turn her down, when Gu Chaoyan stuffed the bottle into her hands directly. Then she left.

It was still snowing a little on her way out. Gu Chaoyan watched the snow-covered court as well as the falling snowflakes.

The court was a cage where people got eaten up. Something she was really aware of by this point.

One man could be pretentious for more than two decades for his own sake.

Gu Chaoyan shook her head.

Power was a wonderful thing. It could dominate too many people's destiny. Gu Chaoyan had always wanted to stay away from this place where power prevailed, but now she was aware that she just could not get rid of this place. Or maybe, the only way to make herself truly free was to make herself the dominator.

Gu Chaoyan was just thinking about this when a mild voice sounded. "What are you thinking? You are so distracted.

Gu Chaoyan got startled, then she saw the smiling face of Zhou Huaijin, who took her umbrella and held it for her, as the two of them started to walk out of the court.

Zhou Huaijin was already aware of what happened to the Queen.

Maybe in everyone's eyes, it was a very saddening thing, but no one knew the truth.

For Zhou Huaijin and the Queen, it was a cheerful thing. Moving out of the court meant moving out of the cage. That was indeed a great matter.

The couple walked through the court's alleyways and came to the gate under one umbrella. Then they headed towards the mansion.

***

The Queen moved out of the court after three days. It was snowing heavily then, but the Empress Dowager did not seem to have the patience to wait until two days later, when it would not snow this much.

That troubled the King a great deal.
