She didn't move.
The Queen was unhappy about this.
Nanny Chang, who had been standing beside the queen, stepped forward and said righteously, "Ms. Shen, the queen asked you to kneel down."
Chen Yan's hands, hidden in his sleeves, were clenched into fists, his eyes flickering with worry, "I wonder what crime I have committed?"
"To offend the queen is a sin."
Chen Yan's eyes were filled with coldness and cruelty. She clenched her teeth, and the emotions on her face kept fluctuating, but in the end she closed her eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, they were calm.
She took a deep breath, lifted the hem of her skirt, and was about to kneel down when suddenly, an urgent male voice rang in her ears: "Yan Yan, mother!"
Jun Mochen's sudden appearance stopped Chen Yan's actions.
Chen Yan and the Queen turned around at the same time and saw Jun Mochen walking towards them quickly.
Chen Yan's slightly bent knees straightened instantly. The moment she saw the person coming, she even gave the queen a provocative smile.
In an instant, the queen was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen and lungs ached everywhere.
She was about to attack, but Jun Mochen had already walked in front of them.
He first gave the Queen a not-so-standard salute, and then, with the air of protecting his child, he held Chen Yan firmly behind him. He looked at the Queen with great disapproval and asked, "Mother, what are you doing?"
The queen had never expected that Jun Mochen would blame her for this woman without asking any reason as soon as he appeared.
She was so angry that she almost fell over and fell down. Fortunately, Nanny Chang, who had been following closely by her side, helped her up and she avoided making a fool of herself in broad daylight.
"Chen'er, you just arrived, and you're talking to the Queen Mother like this?"
The queen's face was filled with heartache.
However, Jun Mochen was not at all fooled by the expression on her face. He frowned and continued to protect Chen Yan tightly, fearing that she would be bullied by the Queen if he was not careful.
"Mother, I have seen it clearly just now. It was you who has been making things difficult for Yanyan. You even made her kneel down to you for no reason. Mother, when did you become like this?"
The queen couldn't see the expression on her face at the moment, but even if she couldn't see it, she knew that her face must have become extremely distorted.
She was so angry that her whole body was shaking, her tongue was stuttering, and she pointed at Jun Mochen for a long time without saying a word.
Nanny Chang couldn't bear to see this and couldn't help but advise, "Second Prince, how can you speak to the Queen like that?"
But Jun Mochen was now angry about the whole family. He even felt that his mother was making things difficult for Chen Yan because these servants were instigating her.
So, as soon as Nanny Chang opened her mouth, Jun Mochen's anger was directed at her.
"How dare you! This prince is talking to the Queen Mother, what business has a servant like you have with her?"
Everyone in the palace knows that Nanny Chang is the Empress's wet nurse and a favorite of the Empress. She has to give the Empress her all, even if it means giving the Empress her all.
However, Jun Mochen didn't give her any face at all. What's the difference between this and slapping the queen twice in the face?
The queen's eyes rolled back in anger, as if she would faint at the next moment, but Jun Mochen just felt that she was pretending.
After all, he saw clearly just now that the queen looked very good when she was making things difficult for Chen Yan.
The queen was both angry and heartbroken at the same time. She often heard people say that men forget their mothers after marrying a wife, but she didn't expect that Jun Mochen had already forgotten her as his mother before he even got married.
"Chen'er, how could you do this..."
Before she could finish her words, Jun Mochen interrupted her loudly, "Mother, why are you making things difficult for Yanyan?"
"Why don't you ask what she did to the Queen Mother?"
The queen pointed at Chen Yan with a shrill voice, but Jun Mochen didn't know what kind of magic potion he had been given, and he just didn't doubt Chen Yan at all.
"Mother, Yanyan has always respected you. Even when you just ordered her to kneel without asking why, she obeyed obediently. Why on earth are you bullying her like this?"
The queen felt that her headache was about to flare up. She held onto Nanny Chang with one hand, so forcefully that her nails almost dug into her skin.
Nanny Chang felt pain, but at this time, no matter how much it hurt, she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
"Chen'er, in your heart, is your mother such a vicious and unreasonable person?"
Jun Mochen's eyebrows twitched slightly. He wanted to deny it, but when he thought of the scene he had just seen, he moved his lips but chose not to say anything.
Seeing his silence, the queen had nothing to understand.
She stopped talking to Jun Mochen and just fixed her gaze on Chen Yan, who had been hiding behind Jun Mochen and pretending to be innocent.
She sneered three times: "Okay, okay, Ms. Shen, I really underestimated you in the past. You are really a good trick."
Hearing this, Chen Yan just pretended to be innocent and harmless. She shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't understand what you mean."
"You'd better not understand."
After saying this, the queen flicked her sleeves and left with Nanny Chang.
Before leaving, he did not forget to glare at Chen Yan fiercely.
Seeing the queen leave, Jun Mochen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He turned around, pulled Chen Yan up and down, looked her up and down for a long time, and asked with a worried look on his face: "Yan Yan, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Chen Yan shook her head. "Why did you come to the palace so early today?"
She didn't notice that when she said this, Jun Mochen's eyes became unnatural for a moment.
"What happened last night... I was worried, so I came to the palace to check. Yanyan, you weren't scared, were you?"
"I'm fine."
Chen Yan originally asked Jun Mochen casually and had no intention of gossiping with him.
She couldn't wait to know the results of last night's investigation. Judging from the Queen's performance last night, she would definitely blame Sang Liwan for this matter.
Chen Yan couldn't wait to kill all the people in the Sang family.
Thinking of this, she became excited again, and even the displeasure she had just felt at being harassed by the Queen was temporarily suppressed.
Don't worry, she won't let anyone who bullied her go.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan lost even less desire to talk to Jun Mochen.
"I'm going to court."
Although Jun Mochen has reached adulthood, he has not been crowned king and has not been given any official duties, so he does not need to attend the morning court.
After hearing her words, Jun Mochen felt a little reluctant, but he also knew that the morning court session could not be delayed. During the court session, Chen Yan had to serve beside the emperor.
"Oh, okay."
Looking at Chen Yan's cold expression, Jun Mochen suddenly remembered what Zuo Junquan said to him that day.
"Second Prince, you are a noble and dignified person, why do you fall for a woman made of ice and snow like this? How boring!"
