Ning Guogong, one of the staunch supporters of Chu Shaoyang's faction, suddenly defected to the Empress Dowager Zhou's faction and firmly supported Chu Mochuan.
Ning Guogong's influence in the court was intricate, with many disciples and great momentum. His defection caught the people of Chu Shaoyang's faction completely off guard, and they became confused and unable to compete with the Empress Dowager Zhou's faction.
Then, Chu Mochuan's ascension to the throne became extremely smooth.
Under the strong support of Ning Guogong, no one inside or outside the court dared to say no.
Back then, Chu Mochuan was only fourteen years old.
Many people believe that Duke Ning Guo promoted Chu Mochuan to the throne because he wanted to control the government and become the regent.
But to everyone's surprise, after Ning Guogong supported Chu Mochuan to ascend the throne, he also handed over the power of the government to Chu Mochuan, and he only assisted him wholeheartedly.
In the past ten years, Ning Guogong has not shown any ambition.
Su Jin didn't understand national affairs. She only cared about the happiness, anger, sorrow and joy of Queen Mother Zhou. When she saw Queen Mother Zhou being sad, she felt sad. When Queen Mother Zhou was happy, she felt happy.
Now seeing Empress Dowager Zhou's brows furrowed again like ten years ago, she faintly realized that something big was about to happen again.
What will happen
A chill suddenly ran through her heart, and she couldn't help but shiver.
The Queen Mother is not going to...
Sujin quickly shook her head to get rid of the terrible thought in her mind, not daring to think about it.
Queen Mother Zhou suddenly raised her head and looked at Sujin.
"Go and get a pen and paper. The Ai family wants to write a decree."
Sujin agreed and went to get paper and pen, but she was wondering in her heart.
Empress Dowager Zhou has not written any edicts herself for a long time. She usually writes them on her behalf. What's going on today
She didn't dare to ask any more questions. After polishing the ink and smoothing the paper, she went to invite Queen Mother Zhou to come over.
Empress Dowager Zhou picked up the pen, swiped it, and stamped it with the phoenix seal.
"Take it to the emperor and ask him to quickly send someone to issue the decree."
Su Jin looked at the Yizhi and was so surprised that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
Queen Mother Zhou glanced at her: "Hurry up and go!"
"Yes Yes."
Su Jin agreed and came out of Shoukang Palace with Yi Zhi in hand, feeling unbelievable in her heart.
Her steps were frivolous, as if she were sleepwalking towards the imperial study.
When she arrived at the Imperial Study Room, she pushed the door open and entered without letting anyone know.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has a decree." Su Jin looked at Mo Chuan with a dull expression.
Mo Chuan stood up, as if he had expected it, and there was no strange look on his face.
"What's the purpose?" he said solemnly.
"Your Majesty, you can see for yourself." Su Jin smiled bitterly and handed the Yizhi in her hand to Mo Chuan.
Mo Chuan took it and unfolded it, took a quick look, and the muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched violently.
"The Queen Mother asked the Emperor to send someone to issue the decree as soon as possible." Su Jin said again.
"knew."
Mo Chuan closed his eyes with Yi Zhi, but there was still no expression on his face.
Su Jin couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, don't you want to say something?"
"What did you say?" Mo Chuan looked at her, his face as calm as water.
This made Sujin couldn't help but get angry.
"Don't you understand what the Queen Mother means?"
Mo Chuan said calmly: "I understand."
"Since the Emperor understands, why doesn't he go to the Queen Mother to reason? Does the Emperor really intend to grant this decree to the Queen Mother?"
"Is there anything wrong with this decree?" Mo Chuan asked back.
Sujin was so angry that she could not speak.
