Yan Zhaozhao didn't even have breakfast. After dressing up, she took a sedan chair to Shoukang Palace.
The Queen Mother sent someone to pass the message so early, obviously she was very anxious. Although she was allowed to have breakfast first, if she really delayed the breakfast time, she would be ignorant.
Sure enough, when Aunt Yumin, the Queen Mother's attendant who was guarding outside the door, saw Yan Zhaozhao, she nodded slightly with satisfaction and hurried forward to greet her. "
Greetings to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is waiting for the Queen Mother in the inner hall." Aunt Yumin pushed the door open and stepped aside to let her in. "Thank you, Aunt." After seeing Yan Zhaozhao go in, she bowed and closed the door. She did not follow in, and waited outside the door with Biluo.
Her heart sank slightly, and she had a bad premonition. Yumin was an old man who had been with the Queen Mother for many years. There was nothing she needed to avoid, but now she was standing outside the door, which meant that this matter must not be known by a third party.
"I pay my respects to my mother, and wish her a long and healthy life."
The Queen Mother smiled and asked her to stand up. "Come here, let me take a good look at you." She raised her hand and motioned Yan Zhaozhao to sit next to her.
Yan Zhaozhao smiled and said "Yes." Then she sat down next to the Queen Mother respectfully.
"Today, I called you here to comfort you." She sighed lightly, frowned slightly, and said in a tone of regret, "I already know about the absurd thing the emperor did yesterday. I really wronged you, Queen." She patted the back of Yan Zhaozhao's hand lightly, as if she wanted to vent her anger for her.
Yan Zhaozhao smiled but said nothing.
The next second, the Queen Mother suddenly changed the subject. "I want to hear what the Queen thinks about this matter?" She looked a little stern, and her voice was a little oppressive. "Does the Queen want to go to marry?"
Yan Zhaozhao knelt at the Queen Mother's feet and lowered her eyes. "My mother, I don't want to."
The Queen Mother did not let her get up, and let her kneel. "I know that the Queen would not do such a thing that is against the royal etiquette." She exhaled a breath of foul air and looked into the distance. "Although the emperor is not decent, he is my legitimate blood after all. This cannot be changed and there is no doubt about it."
She lowered her eyes and glanced at Yan Zhaozhao. Just a side profile was enough to make people feel charming. If such a woman has a good heart, it would be fine. But once she uses this face to marry an enemy country that they are afraid of, I am afraid that the old emperor will be fascinated by her and let her manipulate him. If she wants to retaliate and attack, they will not be able to resist at all.
The Queen Mother sighed inwardly that it was a pity. At the beginning, she thought that the emperor liked beauties, so she forced the marriage and married Yan Zhaozhao, the most beautiful woman, to the emperor, hoping that she could make the emperor concentrate on government affairs, but she did not expect that she would be self-defeating.
She handed the brocade box on the table to Yan Zhaozhao, her tone was completely devoid of the pity and intimacy she had just said. "This is the last honor I give you."
Yan Zhaozhao gritted her teeth, but still reached out to respectfully take the brocade box and opened it. After seeing what was inside, her heart sank, her pupils shrank, and her face instantly turned pale. "Mother..."
