After sending the abbot away, Zhou Chen couldn't wait to rush to the Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother is smarter than him.
He didn't understand what the abbot said, but his mother would definitely understand!
Don't ask.
Asking is confidence!
Zhou Chen was a little anxious, and without even waiting for someone to come to tell him the truth, he lifted the curtain and came in.
Little did I know that as soon as I entered the room, I would see the usually solemn and dignified Queen Mother, now clutching an apple in one hand and Nanny Deng's arm with the other, acting coquettishly:
"Good Mammy, please get me another ice bowl! I'm really hot! I promise I won't get an upset stomach!"
And that loyal servant, Madam Deng, had a stern face and a heart as hard as steel:
"Master, don't even think about it! You said the same thing the other day, and ended up having a stomach ache all night! Even if you say it to hell today, you won't be able to touch the ice bowl!"
"Mammy~Mammy~"
Witnessing all this, Zhou Chen: (???)
So you are such a mother!
Will he be murdered to silence him after seeing another side of his mother?
Before Zhou Chen could figure out the answer to this question, the little palace maid who came in to report walked over.
With an expression of being accustomed to it, he lowered his head and reported respectfully:
"Master, His Majesty has arrived."
Xin Guoguo immediately let go of Madam Deng's arm, threw the apple she had taken a few bites of to Madam Deng, straightened her clothes and sat down.
"Let him in."
The whole set of movements was extremely skillful, and it was obvious that he had done them many times.
Until the Queen Mother looked up.
The mother and son looked at each other.
Awkwardness filled the air.
"Mother."
At that moment, Zhou Chen clearly saw his mother's face flush for a moment, and then she regained her composure, as if nothing had happened:
"Yeah. Why are you here suddenly?"
Moreover, before the palace servants had finished reporting, he ran in on his own!
It scared the hell out of me!
Zhou Chen coughed lightly and said, "There's something I haven't figured out, so I'd like to ask your opinion."
"What's up?"
Zhou Chen looked at the palace maids serving his mother.
Xin Guoguo understood and waved her hand, asking everyone to leave: "Alright, go ahead."
Zhou Chen took two steps closer and told everyone about his previous findings:
"...My son thought it was too strange, so he asked Wang Youxi to invite the abbot of Huguo Temple. Abbot Bu Ran just said..."
After telling his mother everything Bu Ran had said just now, Zhou Chen sat aside obediently, waiting for his mother to answer his questions.
Xin Guoguo was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, the abbot of Huguo Temple is actually so capable!
She thought for a moment and said, "Since the abbot has said so, you don't need to worry about it anymore. After the ceremony of personal rule is over, my mother will help you escort him out of the palace."
"Mother..."
Zhou Chen's voice was choked with emotion.
He knew that his mother had done a lot for him.
But this feeling of being moved did not last long, and I heard my mother chasing people away:
"Alright, if you have nothing else to do, go back and review the memorials! I have something else to do, so I won't keep you here any longer."
Zhou Chen: ...
Mother, don't think I didn't see it. Your eyes are almost glued to those pastries!
"I'll take my leave."
As soon as Zhou Chen left, Xin Guoguo grabbed the half-eaten apple and took a bite.
She ate the apple and fell into deep thought.
Over the years, the original owner has spared no effort to protect Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen was taught very well by her, and he is kind-hearted yet dignified.
But as a king, kindness and majesty alone are not enough.
He also needs to learn the mindset of an emperor and how to control people's hearts before he can grow into a true emperor.
The original owner probably didn't expect that things would develop to this point.
Zhou Chen was too naive and was deceived by a time-traveling girl with a system. In the end, the entire Zhou Dynasty was buried with this relationship that should not have started.
Now none of that has happened.
After being tortured by those dozen women, Zhou Chen should have grown up, right?
After Xing Guoguo finished eating the apple, he picked a bigger one.
She decided to let those people change their style and methods later.
It is imperative that Zhou Chen fully understands all the methods that will be used in the harem!
She wants to pamper her son herself!
*
In the days that followed, Zhou Chen was obsessed with memorials and the various tactics of those dozen women every day, unable to extricate himself.
Xin Guoguo was watching the progress of the Girl of Fortune.
After using the props many times, the system energy of the Daughter of Luck was insufficient and was no longer willing to provide services to her.
On a sunny afternoon, Xin Guoguo went to the Imperial Garden, met Su Su'an by chance, and took back the favorite concubine system.
The distance between the two of them was exactly fifty meters, enough for her to take action without having to get too close.
So, when Su Su'an suddenly fainted, no one would suspect her.
*
After completing the main task, Xin Guoguo became more Buddhist every day.
After the ceremony of taking power, she even disappeared without a trace of her court officials.
Someone sent Su Suwan away far away to ensure that she would never meet Zhou Chen again in her life. Xin Guoguo's mission in this plane was considered completed.
Whenever someone came to her for help, she would remain in the palace, saying only one thing:
The emperor of the Great Zhou is Zhou Chen. If you have any questions, please find him.
After Zhou Chen was able to fully control the government, Xin Guoguo left the palace directly and went to the imperial farm to retire.
As for the original owner's power in the martial arts world, it was also handed over to Zhou Chen.
