"Lead the way, I want to see how the gifts for Northern Qi are being prepared," Mo Chuan said.
Xiao Xizi was overjoyed when he heard this and thought that if this matter reached the ears of the Queen Mother, she would definitely be delighted.
Because this shows how much the emperor attaches importance to this marriage. This is what the Queen Mother wants to see and know the most.
Sure enough, the news soon spread from Xiao Xizi's mouth to the ears of Queen Mother Zhou.
But when she knew the news, it was after dinner.
The eldest princess had been having dinner with Queen Mother Zhou in Shoukang Palace, and then she resigned and left the palace.
Queen Mother Zhou was in a good mood. She held Sujin's hand and walked slowly in the garden. The two of them chatted casually.
Although they were talking about trivial matters, Su Jin could tell that Queen Mother Zhou was in a good mood.
During this period of time, the eldest princess did not come to the palace to pay her respects. Although Empress Dowager Zhou did not say anything, nor did she mean to blame at all, Su Jin could guess what she was thinking in her heart and how uncomfortable she was.
On the surface, Queen Mother Zhou did not love the eldest princess as much as she did Mo Chuan. Although the eldest princess was her only daughter, she, as a mother, did not put much thought into her daughter.
Even in the eldest princess's marriage, she has never interfered much, leaving it up to the eldest princess to make her own decisions.
The eldest princess's attitude toward Queen Mother Zhou was more respectful than intimate. In terms of closeness, she was not as close as she was to Mo Chuan.
She and Mo Chuan could talk about anything, but they often became taciturn when they were in front of Queen Mother Zhou.
The relationship between mother and daughter is as ordinary as water.
But no matter what, this kind of calm and harmonious way of getting along with each other is also a harmonious way of getting along. It’s just that I don’t know when, even this peaceful way of getting along has disappeared.
The eldest princess seldom entered the palace at first. Even if she did, she would only go to the Imperial Study Room to talk to Mo Chuan and almost never come to Shoukang Palace.
Empress Dowager Zhou knew the reason for this, but she never revealed it to her mouth.
When her daughter didn't come to see her, she didn't scold her, she just let it go.
Su Jin saw it in her eyes and was anxious in her heart, but as a slave, even if she wanted to persuade the eldest princess, she couldn't find a chance, because the eldest princess rarely even came to the palace.
After much difficulty, the eldest princess finally came to Shoukang Palace to pay her respects to Queen Mother Zhou. This surprised Sujin and made Queen Mother Zhou secretly happy.
However, Empress Dowager Zhou kept her secret and kept a calm expression on her face when facing her daughter. She showed neither joy nor annoyance, but simply gave instructions to the small kitchen to prepare a few dishes that the eldest princess liked to eat.
Although it was just a simple sentence, the eldest princess felt warm in her heart, and she felt that the distance between her and her mother had suddenly become closer.
Because the queen still remembers her favorite dishes, but what about herself? But because he was annoyed with his mother, he didn't come to pay her respects for so long, which was really unfilial.
So this meal was quite harmonious, and the frozen ice between mother and daughter melted unconsciously.
Sujin saw it in her eyes and felt happy in her heart.
After seeing off the eldest princess, she looked back and saw Xiao Xizi again.
What's going on today? The good news comes one after another.
After Su Jin reported the news she heard from Xiao Xizi to the Queen Mother Zhou, she found that the corners of the Queen Mother's eyes and eyebrows were beaming with joy, and the frown she had been frowning for many days was gone.
