While everyone looked at him with blame and suspicion, there was only one person who kept looking at him with warm and firm eyes.
Mo Chuan raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ning steadily.
Now he has nothing to ask for. No one can believe him, but she must believe him.
"Ning'er, believe me, I really didn't do it!"
"Of course I believe you." Shen Ning smiled gently at him.
This smile was like sunshine, instantly dispelling all the gloom in Mo Chuan's heart and making his whole face quickly glow with brilliance.
He walked up to her and held her hand tightly: "Your words are enough, Ning'er, I will never let you down!"
Hearing this, Queen Mother Zhou's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
"Emperor, what do you mean? You mean you won't marry Rong'er anymore, right?"
"That's right! My son has sworn a long time ago that he will never marry again in this life! In my heart, there is only one person!" Mo Chuan raised his head and answered resolutely.
"Very good, then you can't blame the Ai family for not caring about the love between mother and son. You have to marry Rong'er whether you marry him or not! If you don't marry Rong'er, the Ai family will die in front of you!"
Empress Dowager Zhou opened her left hand, revealing the porcelain vase containing peacock gall, and threatened death again.
Mo Chuan's face suddenly turned pale and he shouted: "Mother!"
Queen Mother Zhou removed the cork from the bottle, brought the mouth of the bottle to her lips, and looked at Mo Chuan coldly.
"Emperor, Ai Jia will ask you one last time, whether you want to marry or not!"
The color drained from Mo Chuan's face, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Mother, why do you have to force my son to do something you don't want to do? If you don't investigate the truth of the matter, if my son really married this man on his mother's order, Woman, Queen Mother, you will definitely regret it in the future!”
Queen Mother Zhou was unmoved and said expressionlessly: "To marry, or not to marry?"
Mo Chuan gritted his teeth tightly, and his eyes were about to burst out with fire.
The atmosphere at the scene was solemn.
Everyone was shocked by Queen Mother Zhou's move.
Su Jin was the first to react and shouted: "Empress Dowager, no!" She wanted to rush over and snatch the porcelain bottle from Queen Mother Zhou's hand, but Queen Mother Zhou glanced at her coldly from the corner of her eyes, and she immediately did not dare to move again.
Princess Zhaorong had already walked to the door of the room. Seeing this, she turned around and shouted with tears in her eyes: "Empress Dowager, if you do this for Rong'er, Rong'er will never be able to atone for his sin by dying. My cousin is not willing to marry me." , I won’t marry him, Queen Mother, please don’t let anything happen to you... If you really want to die, the person who deserves to die the most is me, I... As long as I die, you and your cousin will no longer have to worry about me... "
She suddenly broke away from the arms of the two nuns and bumped towards the rockery in the yard.
"Ah! Princess Princess!"
Seeing this, everyone exclaimed in unison.
"Zhaorong, no!" Queen Mother Zhou swayed and rushed toward Princess Zhaorong with unsteady steps.
The two nuns, Meng and Jiang, pounced on her with quick hands and eyes. Fortunately, Princess Zhaorong was injured and had difficulty moving. They finally hugged her to prevent her blood from splattering on the spot.
"Rong'er, you must not do anything stupid. If you die, how will you ask the Ai family to explain to your mother in the future! You silly girl..."
Empress Dowager Zhou hugged Princess Zhaorong and shed tears of anger and pain.
Su Jin also cried and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, just promise the Queen Mother. Are you really so hard-hearted that you want to force the Queen Mother and the princess to death?"
