The bright candlelight shone on her face, making her expression gloomy and uncertain. Even Mo Chuan couldn't tell what the expression was on Queen Mother Zhou's face at this moment.
"Mother, have you finally decided to tell me?" Mo Chuan stood at the door of the room, just staring at Queen Mother Zhou and not approaching.
That alienation and indifference shocked Queen Mother Zhou's heart.
She looked at Mo Chuan and bit her lip: "The Ai family can't understand what you said. The Ai family just... just woke up."
"Have you just woken up?" Mo Chuan's eyes turned cold, "Then I will send Doctor Zhang to check the mother's pulse."
He turned around to get out.
"emperor!"
Queen Mother Zhou called him again.
This time Mo Chuan did not look back, leaving only a cold and aloof figure for Queen Mother Zhou.
The candlelight lengthened his figure.
"Mother, please have a good rest. I will take my leave."
Mo Chuan never looked back. His hand touched the door panel and pushed it open with a bang.
Queen Mother Zhou suddenly felt a throbbing in her heart.
She suddenly understood that her son was saying his final farewell to her.
Once he leaves this door, he will never step in again!
Could it be that after paying so much price, the relationship between mother and son was broken
No, no, no, she can lose everything in the world, but she must not lose her son!
"Chuan'er, stop!"
she snapped.
But Mo Chuan stepped out as if he hadn't heard anything.
"Chuan'er!"
Queen Mother Zhou let out a shrill cry, her voice full of despair and sadness.
The sound even startled Sujin, who was cooking medicine in the small kitchen next to her.
She ran out in a hurry.
"The Queen Mother!"
Queen Mother Zhou stood at the door of the bedroom with disheveled hair and pale face. The moonlight shone on her body, making her look eerie.
Sujin was shocked.
Mo Chuan finally turned around, stood in the yard, and looked at Queen Mother Zhou quietly.
"You come back. As long as you come back, whatever you want to know, the Ai family will tell you everything." Empress Dowager Zhou looked directly at Mo Chuan, her voice was weak and she was shaky.
"The Queen Mother." Su Jin stepped forward worriedly to help her.
But Queen Mother Zhou waved her hand: "Sujin, please ask everyone to step aside. The Ai family... have something to say to the emperor alone."
Her voice was cold and floating, and she didn't even look at Sujin when she spoke, but looked at Mo Chuan without blinking.
As if she was afraid that Mo Chuan would disappear from her eyes in the blink of an eye.
Su Jin suppressed her surprise and confusion, and led the palace guests back to her room.
She sat on the bed, her heart beating wildly, and an ominous premonition came over her.
After being with Queen Mother Zhou for so many years, she had never seen such an expression on Queen Mother Zhou's face. It was so strange that she felt frightened.
What happened? What does the Queen Mother want to say to the Emperor
She knew it must be a very secret thing.
But why did the Queen Mother even hide it from herself
"Chuan'er, come in."
Empress Dowager Zhou held on to the door frame and gasped.
Her face was so pale that her hair was much whiter, and she looked ten years older than usual.
Looking at Queen Mother Zhou like this, Mo Chuan's hard heart suddenly softened.
"Okay, I will listen to what my mother has to say one more time, but I don't want to hear a lie." He said every word.
Turning around, he held Empress Dowager Zhou's arm and helped her into the bedroom.
