Before Shen Ning could speak, Mo Chuan said first: "Empress, when did Zhaorong become mine? There is nothing wrong between me and her! Nothing has ever happened between her and me! Empress, you must not listen to Zhaorong." It’s a one-sided statement, why don’t you ask me what she did!”
"What Zhaorong did is known to the Ai family. What did you do? Are you pretending to be ignorant? Emperor, a manly man, why don't you admit it if you dare to do it? Have you ever thought about it, if you don't give Zhaorong a How do you tell Zhaorong to behave in the future? Do you know how important a woman's reputation is?" Empress Dowager Zhou scolded her righteously.
Mo Chuan couldn't help but sneered: "Reputation? If she cared about reputation, she wouldn't do that to her son!"
Empress Dowager Zhou turned cold and said: "You are obviously the one who did this. Emperor, please give the Ai family a word, Zhaorong, are you going to marry me or not?"
"Don't marry!"
Mo Chuan made a splash.
"You!" Queen Mother Zhou raised her hands again in anger.
Mo Chuan's back was straight, his body was as straight as a green pine, and his brows were firm.
"Mother, Erchen swore that he never touched Zhaorong's finger. It was Zhaorong who drugged Erchen, and then climbed into bed while Erchen was asleep. Ning'er found her, and she beat Ning'er again and again. You scolded, and even wanted Ning'er's life, such a vicious and scheming woman, you actually let your son marry her? "
"What did you say?" Queen Mother Zhou and Su Jin both looked shocked.
Empress Dowager Zhou then shook her head: "Emperor, the Ai family is so disappointed in you. To be irresponsible, you actually made up such lies to slander Zhaorong's innocence. Zhaorong is the child that the Ai family has watched since childhood. She She is a bit arrogant and willful, but she is definitely not the scheming and vicious person you say she is! Don’t believe other people’s nonsense. The Aijia definitely don’t believe that Zhaorong is the kind of person you say she is!”
Seeing that Empress Dowager Zhou was determined to protect Princess Zhaorong, Mo Chuan knew that Empress Dowager Zhou would not believe him no matter what he said. However, if the matter was not explained clearly, Empress Dowager Zhou would force him to marry Zhaorong.
"Xiao Si and Zhui Feng were both present at what happened at that time. If the Queen Mother doesn't believe it, she can ask Xiao Si to come and she will find out after asking."
Queen Mother Zhou snorted: "Who doesn't know that Xiao Si is your confidant? He will naturally say whatever you say. How can you take what this naughty boy says seriously?"
Seeing that Empress Dowager Zhou was unreasonable, Mo Chuan simply made it clear: "Okay, since the queen mother keeps asking the son to be responsible for Zhaorong, if the son really did something wrong to Zhaorong, the son will naturally take responsibility, but the son will be responsible." I will never be responsible for something I haven’t done!”
He originally wanted to use these words to silence Queen Mother Zhou, but after hearing this, Queen Mother Zhou's eyes lit up.
"Very good, your words are enough for the emperor. If the Ai family has no evidence, they will never force you to take responsibility for Zhaorong." She looked determined.
Mo Chuan was suspicious and asked: "Evidence, what evidence is there?"
Empress Dowager Zhou did not answer, but struck with both palms: "Come here, please invite the two nuns who will examine the princess' body."
After a while, two grey-haired nuns wearing fourth-grade palace clothes came in front of the Queen Mother Zhou and bowed down to the Queen Mother Zhou.
"My servant pays homage to the Queen Mother."
As soon as the two people showed up, Shen Ning couldn't help but feel happy.
It turned out to be them, old acquaintances!
