Chapter 1207

Empress Dowager Zhou had Mo Chuan post an imperial notice, asking for medicine for the princess. As long as someone could save the princess, they would agree to any condition.

After the Imperial Proclamation was posted, it did attract many people who came to treat Zhao Rong Junzhu's illness. However, they were all Jianghu swindlers who used the excuse of treating her illness to gain benefits.

In a fit of anger, Empress Dowager Zhou sent out a decree to behead all of these swindlers, so no one dared to take the imperial notice.

But the princess' illness was getting worse by the day. Her mother cried all day and Empress Dowager Zhou's heart was filled with sorrow.

When everyone was filled with despair, there was a daoist nun who came to take the notice, saying that she could cure the princess' illness.

When she saw the princess, she didn't check her pulse like a doctor would. She just took a look and took out a pill, saying that as long as the princess took this pill, she would be cured immediately.

How could the Duke Ning couple believe her words? They just casually gave the princess the pill. If it was a poison pill, wouldn't that be harming their beloved daughter's life?

But that Daoist nun vowed that if anything happened to Zhao Rong Junzhu after taking the medicine, then she would have to pay with her life.

The Duke Ning couple thought about it again and again. Seeing that their beloved daughter was in danger, they could only give it a try and gave the princess the pill.

Who would have thought that the pill would have a miraculous effect. After the princess took the pill, she could stand up the next day and after three days, she was cured.

The Duke Ning couple was filled with gratitude towards the daoist nun, taking out a thousand gold coins as a reward. The daoist nun did not accept it and said that she was fated with the princess. She wanted to take her as a disciple and bring her back to the sect to teach her martial arts.

The princess' parents only had this one daughter and they loved her as much as their lives, how could they bear to let their beloved daughter go far away with a daoist nun they had never met before. But the daoist nun took out the imperial notice, making the two of them speechless.

Helplessly, the Duke Ning couple could only let the princess become the daoist nun's disciple and follow the daoist nun to learn martial arts. After leaving, there was no news of them.

In the second year after the princess left the capital, the Duke Ning's wife, who was Empress Dowager Zhou's cousin, became ill from missing her daughter. Duke Ning sent a large amount of people to search for his beloved daughter and the daoist nun, but it was to no avail. The Duke Ning's wife could not see her beloved daughter, so she passed away.

Before she passed away, she held Empress Dowager Zhou's hand. Although she did not say she wanted Empress Dowager Zhou to marry Mo Chuan and Zhao Rong princess, she begged Empress Dowager Zhou for her daughter's happiness, filled her heart with sorrow.

Empress Dowager Zhou was incomparably sad. She promised in front of her bed that she would take good care of Zhao Rong princess, giving her wealth and glory, living a carefree life. This was the highest promise she could make to her bosom friend and cousin.

The Duke Ning 'wife received Empress Dowager Zhou promised and passed away safely.

Empress Dowager Zhou had always remembered her promise. Over the past three years, she had never stopped sending people to find Zhao Rong's whereabouts, but they had never found anything.

Who would have thought that after Zhao Rong princess left the capital for three years, she would suddenly come back.

Empress Dowager Zhou's joy was not small, especially when she saw that the little girl from the past had become a beautiful young girl who had learned martial arts. She thought of her dead cousin and while she was sad, she couldn't help thinking of something.

Her son had just married and Zhao Rong princess had come back. The two of them had a strange combination which made her feel regret.
