The Queen Mother's expression was very serious, and every word she said carried a heavy weight.
Defei's expression suddenly turned a little ugly, her lips trembled slightly, and a hint of unwillingness flashed in her eyes.
But soon she gritted her teeth, pursed her lips tightly, and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Yes, Queen Mother."
She crossed her hands on her waist and pinched them tightly, trying her best to control her emotions.
Su Jingyao couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
The empress dowager's standard for choosing a queen is that she must be able to handle the affairs of the harem and not let her son be tired. If everything has to be investigated by the empress dowager or the emperor, how could the empress dowager agree to her being the queen?
Thinking of this, she revealed an imperceptible sarcastic smile, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.
When Jun Zechen and Su Jingyao returned to Kunning Palace together, they were both a little tired.
Su Jingyao's face was filled with fatigue. She walked to the bed, her body seemed to be shaking a little. She lazily undressed her clothes, and her movements were full of weakness.
Jun Zechen followed her and found it a little funny. He lay down, stretched out his arms, and gently held her in his arms.
Then he thought of the fact that Xingxing was plotted against, and asked with concern in his tone, "When you found out that Xingxing was plotted against, was Yaoyao scared?"
He knew how much she cared about Xingxing, and he always thought he had protected her well. However, he didn't expect that she had been silently bearing everything in a place where he didn't notice.
"I'm afraid. This time I discovered it early and didn't let Xingxing get assassinated. But if the person behind the scenes comes up with a more sinister plan next time and I can't defend myself, what should I do?"
As Su Jingyao spoke, she hugged the man's waist tightly, as if she had used up all her strength, and her fingers tightly grasped the man's underwear, as if she wanted to gain strength from the man.
There was also a hint of helplessness and fear in his eyes.
Jun Zechen reached out and gently stroked her back, his movements gentle and soothing.
His deep eyes flickered with unknown emotions in the darkness, like a bottomless pool of water.
Even though he was the emperor, high above everyone else, he could not stop the disputes in the harem, just like in the court, if the water is too clear, there will be no fish...
"No matter who Yaoyao finds out is, I will punish him severely." A trace of determination flashed across his face.
Originally, she wanted to send Anshun to help her investigate, but after thinking carefully, she was now the queen, and her help might make her mother and concubines question her ability.
A gleam of light suddenly flashed in Su Jingyao's eyes.
This time, she will make sure that Concubine De will never be able to make a comeback!
