Queen Mother Zhou coughed so much that tears came out, but she still stood there motionless, stretched out her sleeves to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said calmly: "Sujin, you don't need to persuade me anymore, the Ai family will wait here. When the emperor is in a good mood and is willing to see the Ai family. "
"The Queen Mother..." Su Jin looked at Queen Mother Zhou in shock, her lips moved, but she didn't know how to persuade her.
She knew that Empress Dowager Zhou was stubborn, and that the Emperor's temper also followed Empress Dowager Zhou's, and was almost even more stubborn than Empress Dowager Zhou. Now that these two people were facing each other, one of them had to bow first.
However, Queen Mother Zhou had obviously made up her mind and would not leave if Mo Chuan did not see her.
Seeing Queen Mother Zhou's haggard face, Su Jin was coughing lowly with her sleeves covered. She tried her best to suppress herself from coughing. She felt miserable and couldn't help but said to the room: "Your Majesty, don't you know Queen Mother these days?" Your Majesty is so worried about you. She can't eat well and can't sleep well. She also caught a cold a few days ago and has not recovered from her illness. Are you really so bearable? "
Her voice was choked with sobs. If she wanted to speak again, Empress Dowager Zhou had already yelled:
"Sujin, shut your mouth for Aijia! You are becoming less and less ignorant of the rules! Cough, cough, cough!" She began to cough quietly again.
Su Jin fell to her knees with a plop, with tears in her eyes: "Empress Dowager, I'm just worried about your and the emperor's health. You have been on the sickbed for so many years, and you finally took the medicine of the ancient miracle doctor. Your condition has just improved. This time I am infected with the wind and cold again, and I am getting more and more haggard every day. I see it in my eyes and feel pain in my heart. You are worried about the emperor's health, but are you not worried about your own body at all?"
Queen Mother Zhou's face darkened, and she hit the ground with her cane. Before she could speak, she heard a very low sigh coming from the study.
"Xiaosi, please mother come in."
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager Zhou and everyone around her were overjoyed.
Xiao Si hurriedly stepped forward, pushed gently, and the door opened.
Su Jin helped Empress Dowager Zhou go inside, but Empress Dowager Zhou pushed her away and said, "You all stay here. The Ai family has something to say to the emperor alone."
"Yes, Queen Mother."
Sujin and Xiaosi both stayed outside the door, watching Queen Mother Zhou walk into the room step by step on crutches, and then closed the door.
She made a gesture to Xiao Si, and then quietly stepped back, far away from De Yu's study, so as not to hear the sounds coming from the room.
Xiao Si understood and ordered all the guards and eunuchs outside the imperial study room to retreat. He walked to Su Jin and whispered: "Aunt Su Jin."
"Shh!" Su Jin made a silent gesture to him and looked towards the study without blinking, with a look of worry on her face.
She was not only worried about Empress Dowager Zhou and the Emperor, but she was even more worried about Shen Ning.
Royal study room.
Empress Dowager Zhou saw Mo Chuan at a glance. He was sitting in front of the imperial court reviewing the memorial, his expression focused, and he looked no different from usual.
However, Queen Mother Zhou noticed that his handsome face suddenly lost a lot of weight, and even his close-fitting dragon robe became wider.
"My son, I send my regards to my mother."
Mo Chuan stood up slowly and saluted Queen Mother Zhou. His movements were slow but still very standard.
Empress Dowager Zhou couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and whispered: "Why should I ask you for peace? Seeing your appearance, how can my mother be at peace?"
