Ever since Shen Ning stepped out of the sedan chair, Mo Chuan's dark and deep eyes had never left her, full of appreciation, affection and expectation.
She stepped on the golden carpet and walked steadily towards him, looking directly at him with bright black eyes. Her appearance was noble and noble. Even the sunlight shining on her body could not take away half of her grace.
Mo Chuan stepped forward to meet her and took her hand. The two held hands and walked side by side to the ancestral temple. Just looking at their backs, they saw a pair of beautiful women of about the same age.
The ministers' jaws almost dropped.
The closer they got, the clearer they could see, and the Queen's every look was extremely familiar.
This is clearly Princess Dingyuan who defeated the Prince of Dong Qin on the East Campus that day!
She was also the Crown Princess of Eastern Qin who married in a bright red wedding dress in front of everyone!
It's her, it's her!
But didn’t she obviously marry to Dong Qin and become the crown princess? How could she suddenly transform into the queen of their Western Chu Kingdom
This is incredible!
The confused ministers all looked at the Queen Mother Zhou who was standing in front of the ancestral temple on crutches.
Empress Dowager Zhou, like Mo Chuan, seemed not to notice the questioning glances of the ministers. Her face was solemn and solemn, her lips were pursed tightly, and she said nothing.
She had anticipated this scene for a long time. She had wanted to avoid it and resolve it, but unfortunately she could not resist Mo Chuan's insistence.
Since the emperor's son doesn't care about face, she, as a mother, should show off her old face.
Mo Chuan and Shen Ning walked hand in hand in front of the Queen Mother Zhou, and both bowed to the Queen Mother Zhou.
Empress Dowager Zhou nodded slightly, then took out the edict she had prepared long ago and read it out slowly.
The edict written at the back of the volume contains four verses and six verses. The words are profound, but the ministers all held their breath and listened carefully, fearing that they might miss a word.
In front of everyone, the Empress Dowager Zhou recited: "Now there is a daughter of the Shen family named Ning. She is gentle, respectful, kind, docile and gentle. She is worthy of being the head of the Six Palaces. Therefore, she can be canonized as the queen. It is very honorable."
Everyone heard clearly that the queen's name was: Shen Ning!
Sure enough, the name is exactly the same as the daughter of the Protector General Shen!
Sure enough, she has the same name as Princess Dingyuan!
After the Empress Dowager Zhou finished reading the edict, it was like dropping a huge boulder on a calm lake, causing a huge wave among the ministers.
All the ministers felt as if they had been struck by lightning. They were dumbfounded and could not utter a word.
Without even looking at them, Empress Dowager Zhou placed the edict in Shen Ning's hand.
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Shen Ning took the edict respectfully with both hands.
Mo Chuan took the phoenix crown that symbolized the queen from the ceremony plate and presented it to Queen Mother Zhou.
"Please ask the Queen Mother to put on the phoenix crown for the Queen."
As long as the crowning ceremony is completed, Shen Ning will become the legitimate queen of the Western Chu Kingdom. She will accept the kneeling of the ministers and become the new master of the harem.
Empress Dowager Zhou took the phoenix crown, glanced at the stunned ministers, and then put the phoenix crown on Shen Ning's head.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, she just hoped to end the ceremony as soon as possible.
"The Queen Mother, wait a minute! I have something to say!"
Suddenly, an old voice rose up from the crowd.
Empress Dowager Zhou's hand wearing the phoenix crown trembled slightly and paused in the air.
She raised her eyes and looked towards where the voice came from, her heart trembled, but her expression remained unchanged.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, now is the auspicious time for the queen to be crowned. After the Ai family has completed the crowning ceremony for the queen, it will not be too late if you have anything to say." She said calmly.
