"It's just that in the Queen Mother's heart, Northern Qi is a great supporter. Only by marrying Northern Qi can we ensure the stability of our country in Western Chu. The Queen Mother has worked hard, and I hope the Emperor will understand."
Su Jin said sincerely.
She has been with Queen Mother Zhou for the longest time. If anyone in the world understands Queen Mother Zhou's thoughts best, she is the one.
Queen Mother Zhou said she was not happy with Shen Ning, but Su Jin could see that Queen Mother Zhou did not dislike Shen Ning as a person, but because she could not bring benefits or peace to Xi Chu.
Empress Dowager Zhou also saw the contribution of Shen Ning's actions to Xi Chu.
Sujin knew that Empress Dowager Zhou loved Mo Chuan the most, but she had always been dignified, with a cold face and a warm heart. She was not good at expressing her love for Mo Chuan from the bottom of her heart, and her love was deep and harsh. The reason why she was so picky and heavy Ning also hopes that she can become more perfect and be able to better assist Mo Chuan.
It's just that the Queen Mother Zhou's efforts are really well-intentioned. Even Su Jin, who is a close friend of the Queen Mother Zhou, has only recently gained some understanding. As for Mo Chuan, although he and the Queen Mother Zhou are biological mother and son, because of Zhou The Queen Mother hid her worries very well. He always thought that the Queen Mother didn't like Shen Ning.
Su Jin didn't want the mother and son to be estranged because of this incident, and it would be the most painful thing for the Queen Mother Zhou.
As for the Empress Dowager Zhou's single-minded desire to marry the emperor and the three Northern Qi princesses, that was purely out of overall considerations and did not involve any personal relationships.
The Queen Mother of Zhou and the Third Princess of Northern Qi had never met, so how could she fall in love with her
Empress Dowager Zhou was thinking about national affairs and the future of Xichu!
Su Jin saw clearly that in order to make Xi Chu strong and to make Mo Chuan sit more firmly on the throne of the emperor, Queen Mother Zhou would pay any price.
Not to mention asking the third princess of Northern Qi to marry Mo Chuan, even if she asked her to marry herself to Northern Qi, Queen Mother Zhou would not even blink an eye.
For the sake of her son and the country of Xi Chu, the Queen Mother Zhou was willing to give up everything, including her own reputation, honor and status.
Although she devoted herself wholeheartedly to her son, her most beloved son could not understand the mood of the Queen Mother Zhou. Even Su Jin could not help but feel aggrieved for the Queen Mother Zhou.
She couldn't let the emperor hate the queen mother. She couldn't bear to see the mother and son alienated because of this, and she couldn't bear to see the Queen Mother Zhou's painstaking efforts not being understood.
That's why she waited in front of the palace gate in advance and said these words to Mo Chuan.
"Aunt Sujin, don't worry. I am not a cold-blooded person. I have always understood my mother's intentions."
How smart Mo Chuan was was revealed by Su Jin, but although he understood Empress Dowager Zhou's hard work, he couldn't support it.
The Queen Mother was indeed worried about herself for the country and the people, but Mo Chuan's heart was much stronger than Queen Mother Zhou imagined.
Su Jin breathed out slightly, but there was still worry in her eyes: "Your Majesty, do you really know everything?"
"Is there anything else that I don't know?" Mo Chuan asked, feeling that there was something in Sujin's words.
"The emperor asked this, which shows that the emperor is indeed ignorant."
Sujin's expression was a little hesitant, as if she was considering whether to say something or not.
Mo Chuan's eyes darkened: "Auntie, I'm already here. Is there anything else that I can't know?"
Su Jin sighed: "It is true that this matter cannot be kept secret for long. The emperor will know about it sooner or later."
