It seemed that Queen Mother Zhou was serious this time. If she and Mo Chuan had not arrived in time, Queen Mother Zhou and Su Jin would have...
"Mochuan!" She reminded softly, her eyes falling on Queen Mother Zhou's left hand. In her hand she also held a porcelain bottle that was exactly the same as Sujin's.
Mo Chuan's eyes narrowed and he also saw the bottle. He walked towards Queen Mother Zhou without saying a word.
"Mother, please hand over the things in your hands to my son."
Queen Mother Zhou stood still, looking at Mo Chuan coldly, as if looking at a stranger.
The look in her eyes made Mo Chuan feel a sharp pain in his heart. He had never seen Queen Mother Zhou look at him with such cold and unfamiliar eyes.
There is an incense burner next to Queen Mother Zhou, with a stick of incense burning in it. It is about to burn to the end, and a spark seems to be bright but not bright, and seems to be extinguished but not extinguished.
This stick of incense resembles the mood of Queen Mother Zhou.
"Mother!" Mo Chuan called again, his voice trembling slightly.
Queen Mother Zhou looked at him coldly for a while, and finally said slowly: "Very good, you still know how to call Aijia Queen Mother!"
Mo Chuan lowered his eyes and said, "A queen will always be the queen of her sons and ministers."
"Really? So, do you still listen to what Aijia said?"
Mo Chuan seemed to know what Empress Dowager Zhou was going to say. His lips moved slightly but did not speak.
Empress Dowager Zhou held the porcelain vase in her hand and said coldly: "If the Ai family hadn't committed suicide by taking poison, I'm afraid the emperor would never have appeared in the Ai family's Shoukang Palace, right?"
"What did the Queen Mother say? My son and the Queen have already prepared and are coming to say hello to the Queen Mother."
Mo Chuan replied respectfully.
"Really?" Queen Mother Zhou kept staring at Mo Chuan without even glancing at Shen Ning from the corner of her eyes.
As soon as Shen Ning saw Queen Mother Zhou's expression, she knew that she was deeply hostile to him.
This was the first time she had officially appeared in front of Queen Mother Zhou after she and Mo Chuan got married.
She stepped forward slowly, walked to Empress Dowager Zhou and bowed down.
"My daughter-in-law pays homage to my mother."
She was very respectful, her posture and movements were very standard, dignified and graceful, and even the pickiest nanny could not fault her at all.
Empress Dowager Zhou snorted and finally slowly focused her eyes on her.
"Queen, are you in great health? Are you going to a banquet or a celebration when you are dressed up so beautifully?" The sarcasm in her tone could not be stronger.
She was furious when she saw Shen Ning, and felt that everything was unpleasant.
Shen Ning lowered her head slightly, with a respectful expression, but her tone was neither humble nor arrogant: "My daughter-in-law is coming to Shoukang Palace to pay homage to my mother. This is the first time my daughter-in-law has come to Shoukang Palace to pay her respects to my mother. She is dressed grandly and dignified, as my daughter-in-law is. The etiquette that a queen should have, and if she wears ordinary clothes, others will say that the minister's daughter-in-law is disrespectful to the mother, which will cause criticism. "
"you… "
Queen Mother Zhou was choked by her.
Originally, she wanted to use the topic to express herself, but she didn't expect that Shen Ning blocked her in a single sentence, and she said it in such a dignified and flawless way that she couldn't catch the slightest mistake.
The embarrassed look on her face disappeared in a flash, and she immediately returned to her aloof, cold and arrogant face.
"The Queen is really very impressive. As soon as she sat on the Queen's throne, she started to show off her majesty as the Queen and lecture others." She said pointedly.
Shen Ning knew clearly that she was referring to Princess Zhaorong, but he pretended not to know, continued to kneel on the ground, and replied submissively: "My wife does not understand what the queen mother's words mean."
