Zhao Jie frowned and asked, "Mom, is this your idea, or is it the idea of the Zhou and Ning families?"
Empress Dowager Zhou said, "No matter what, your uncle is doing this for your own good."
Zhao Jie frowned, "I trust my cousin and the princess. Mother, please remember that the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs."
