?Chapter 705: 330 Fetal Movements (Second Tael Update)_3 Chapter 705: 330 Fetal Movements (Second Tael Update)_3 The Emperor and Empress Dowager Jing sat on chairs, the Emperor furrowed his brow as he looked at the new palace maids picked to serve the Empress Dowager Jing, a frown marring his face: “How are you serving the Empress Dowager? You even lost her jade pendant!”
Empress Dowager Jing sighed: “Don’t blame them, it was I who lost it. I seem to have heard something earlier in the Imperial Garden, but didn’t think much of it at the time, so I probably dropped it then.”
“Mistress, I…I found it, but I…” A palace maid stammered nervously.
Empress Dowager Jing gently said: “Don’t be afraid, just tell me what happened, I won’t blame you.”
The palace maid, gathering courage, moved forward on her knees, bowed deeply and said: “I found a jade pendant in the Imperial Garden, I didn’t know it was Your Majesty’s. I thought I would give it to the head maid later, so I left it on the table. When I went to get the pendant after picking flowers, it was gone!”
The Emperor sternly said: “Why did you carelessly leave the jade pendant on the table?”
The palace maid fearfully responded: “The jade pendant was broken, I thought it wasn’t valuable, not something precious…”
“Broken?” The Emperor looked at Empress Dowager Jing in surprise.
Empress Dowager Jing bitterly nodded her head, remaining silent.
Nurse Cai earnestly said: “Two years ago, the Empress Dowager had a fall and broke her jade pendant. One corner was completely shattered into powder and couldn’t be repaired. But that pendant was a keepsake from Princess Ning An, so the Empress Dowager wore it every day despite the damage.”
