Therefore, she had no intention of telling the emperor about this matter for the time being, as long as she could hide it, it was only a matter of time.
What's more, it has been less than two hours since Shen Ning left the palace. Even if the emperor's hands and eyes are all over the sky, it is impossible for the emperor to know that someone has been sent away by him in such a short period of time.
"Sujin, prepare the sedan chair. The Ai family is going to see what the emperor is doing now. Shaoyang, you also go with the Ai family."
Although the Queen Mother Zhou did not believe that it was the emperor who did it, she could not think of anyone else besides the emperor who would take advantage of Shen Ning.
Who was the imperial guard who disappeared with Shen Ning? Is he really a guard? Was it the Shen Ning he kidnapped
Could it be that there really was such a bold guard who kidnapped Shen Ning because he saw her beauty
These questions circled in her mind one after another, leaving her puzzled.
"Su Jin, send someone immediately to find out who the guard who sent the princess back to the palace is! Then take the person to the Ai family to the emperor's palace. The Ai family must ask clearly in front of the emperor!"
After the Empress Dowager Zhou gave her stern instructions, she got on the sedan chair and went straight to the emperor's palace.
Chu Shaoyang's face was gloomy, and he followed Queen Mother Zhou's sedan with a cold and serious look in his eyes.
As the saying goes, a monk can't escape the temple if he runs away. All the imperial guards who can serve in the palace are people with a background, and they are definitely not ordinary people.
He believed that no real guard would be so bold as to dare to think of his own princess, Chu Shaoyang.
Therefore, the imperial guard must be someone else pretending to be one.
And the mastermind behind this incident must be the emperor!
He wanted to go and see if Empress Dowager Zhou would wholeheartedly protect her emperor's son after discovering the truth of the matter.
A group of people soon arrived outside Mo Chuan's bedroom.
The two eunuchs guarding the palace gate noticed the carriage of Queen Mother Zhou from a distance, and hurriedly came forward to greet her.
Empress Dowager Zhou got off the sedan chair, didn't even look at the two of them, and walked inside without saying a word.
"The Queen Mother, the Emperor is not in the palace."
"The emperor is not here?"
Queen Mother Zhou suddenly stopped and looked back at the eunuch kneeling on the ground, her heart skipping a beat.
Could this matter really be related to the emperor
The anger in her heart suddenly rose, and she turned around and got on the sedan chair without saying a word.
"Go to the Imperial Study Room."
She knew that the emperor was diligent in his work. Apart from going to court every day, he only stayed in two places. One was the imperial study room where he reviewed memorials, and the other was his bedroom.
Sometimes he would stay directly in the study while reviewing memorials until late at night.
The Imperial Study Room is not too far from the bedroom, and it only takes half a cup of tea.
Empress Dowager Zhou got off the sedan chair and angrily walked in. Suddenly, a figure jumped out from the thorn and knelt in front of her.
"Meet the Queen Mother."
Empress Dowager Zhou was in a state of confusion when she realized that the person kneeling in front of her was actually Xiaosi. She immediately said with a serious face: "Is the emperor in there?"
"Go back to the Queen Mother, the Emperor is, inside."
Xiaosi replied, feeling something was wrong. The Queen Mother seemed to be angry. He raised his eyes slightly and saw Chu Shaoyang following Queen Mother Zhou, who also had a gloomy look on his face.
Queen Mother Zhou stopped talking and walked away.
"The Queen Mother, please stay. The Emperor is discussing political affairs with the courtiers. It would be inconvenient for the Queen Mother to go in now," Xiao Si hurriedly replied.
"Discussing political affairs?"
Empress Dowager Zhou stared at the study and saw a few shadowy figures reflected on the window paper, and faint voices could be heard inside.
