After the Queen Mother Zhou talked about this conversation, she was so stimulated, and the medicine she drank gradually took effect, she was indeed very sleepy.
Although she was still full of thoughts, she was tired and just wanted to sleep, so she closed her eyes, and soon she was breathing deeply and falling into a very peaceful sleep.
Su Jin waited for Queen Mother Zhou to fall into a deep sleep, then quietly withdrew, feeling secretly happy for Shen Ning.
Without the extremely threatening figure of Princess Zhaorong, Empress Dowager Zhou would not be bent on deposing the empress and replacing her with Princess Zhaorong.
She couldn't help but feel lucky that Princess Zhaorong had recovered from the strange illness in time, but she had never imagined the cause of Princess Zhaorong's strange illness.
When Mo Chuan returned to Guanju Palace, Shen Ning was sitting in front of the window, holding something in her hand, lost in thought.
She didn't even notice when he walked behind her.
Xiaoru saw Mo Chuan at a glance and was about to salute and say hello. Mo Chuan waved his hand to signal her to leave.
She stuck out her tongue, glanced at Shen Ning, and quietly exited the room.
Mo Chuan looked from behind Shen Ning and saw that she was holding a silver hairpin in her hand, which was exactly the one the Northern Qi envoy gave her before leaving, and couldn't help but smile.
"Do you like hairpins like this? Tomorrow I will ask Xiaosi to take a thousand taels of silver and find the best jewelry shop in Kyoto to give you three hundred hairpins. You can change one every day and wear a different one every day, okay?"
He smiled and bent down, kissing her gently on the cheek.
Shen Ning heard his voice, looked back and smiled: "Really? I'm afraid that the three hundred hairpins you made together are not as valuable as this silver hairpin."
"What's so valuable about this hairpin? Isn't it made of silver? Is it made of gold?"
While Mo Chuan smiled, he took the silver hairpin from her hand and looked at it carefully.
He admitted that the carving of this silver hairpin was very exquisite and the pattern was unique. Apart from that, he couldn't see anything surprising about it, so why did she stare at it for so long.
Shen Ning pursed her lips and smiled: "It is not made of gold, but it is a thousand or ten thousand times more valuable than gold."
Mo Chuan was puzzled, but he knew that she would never talk nonsense. He took the silver hairpin and looked at it carefully again, but he saw that it was just an ordinary silver hairpin.
"You little girl, have you noticed something fishy? I guessed that the Northern Qi envoy waited eagerly for you to arrive, and then just wanted to give you an inconspicuous silver hairpin! There must be something wrong with this, you If you don’t tell me, I will be rude to you!”
He put on a straight face and feigned anger.
She chuckled: "How can the emperor be so rude?"
He stretched out his hands: "I want to tickle you until you hug the big locust tree and rub it hard!"
Shen Ning thought of Princess Zhaorong hugging the big locust tree and tickling her. She couldn't help but burst into laughter and said with a smile: "Okay, that sounds good, I'm scared of you."
She took back the silver hairpin from Mo Chuan and said, "Look at this hairpin!"
Mo Chuan looked at it carefully and saw that the hairpin was particularly beautifully made. It was a lifelike phoenix head, and even the phoenix feathers on the head were as thin as hair, as if they were trembling slightly.
"The mouth of this phoenix is open. Look, you can still see its tongue." Shen Ning reminded.
Mo Chuan took a look and found that it was indeed the case.
