There was a sense of majesty in Xin Guoguo's brows:

"Chen'er, have you really thought it through?"

Her eyes were so cold and sharp that people dared not look directly at them. Without words or actions, she could exude a strong aura, making people feel her seriousness and calmness.

This is the authority of a queen mother.

The confidence of a queen mother who supports the young ruler to succeed to the throne and can stabilize the government and the people.

Her expression was calm and firm, yet full of tolerance for the child.

But Su Suwan's whole body was stiff.

For the first time, she felt the control of a powerful queen mother.

Zhou Chen was stared at by his mother and suddenly felt a little ashamed.

His expression changed slightly, and a feeling of uneasiness surged in his heart.

He tried to calm himself, but his eyes could not meet his mother's gaze.

There was a kind of majesty and kindness in the queen mother's eyes, which made Zhou Chen feel ashamed.

He is the king of a country.

His mother taught him since he was young that he should not be sentimental and should not forget his responsibilities.

He realized that his behavior had caused his mother's dissatisfaction and disappointment.

But when he saw Su Wan's tearful eyes, he felt a dull pain in his heart.

Zhou Chen lowered his head silently, his fingers clenched tightly.

He knew that at this moment he should apologize to his mother, admit his mistakes, and work hard to correct them.

but……

"Mother..."

Zhou Chen's voice trembled slightly, and he kowtowed heavily, "Please grant me your blessing, mother!"

The Queen Mother's eyes became more severe:

"Chen'er, do you still remember what I told you?

"You are the king of a country. Your behavior represents the image of the entire country. You must always keep a clear head and make the right decisions.

"But look at what you are doing now? You are forcing me to do this just for a woman you have only known for three days and yet she dared to have sex with someone without any help?!

"Do you still remember what you said at the beginning?! Do you still remember the expectations that I, your father, and your grandfather have for you?!"

Zhou Chen was crawling on the ground, his eyes moist as if he was recalling the past.

He knew that he had failed to live up to the expectations of his grandfather, father and mother.

However, he couldn't understand it, as he clearly just wanted a concubine.

Why did the Queen Mother react so strongly?

Zhou Chen remained silent.

Su Suwan bit her lips tightly, and the strong sense of humiliation made her body tremble constantly.

She raised her head and looked at the Queen Mother with a firm gaze, her voice delicate but powerful:

"Your Highness, I am from a good family and I know how to respect myself. Please be kind and stop insulting me."

"How dare you! Without the Queen Mother's order, who allowed you to speak?!"

This was a rebuke full of majesty and power.

Nanny Deng's voice was loud and clear, echoing throughout the palace like thunder.

She felt very sorry for her master.

Your Majesty ascended the throne at the age of five, and was surrounded by wolves. The ministers in the court and the royal nobles were eager to pounce on you and take a bite of the flesh and blood of the orphan and his widow.

It was the Queen Mother who single-handedly protected Your Majesty.

That’s why Your Majesty is still alive today!

But how did His Majesty treat the Master? !

Su Suwan was startled, and then felt extremely humiliated.

She was a time traveler, holding the system, a girl of destiny, yet she was scolded like this by a mere servant!

Her lips were tightly closed, her teeth almost embedded in her lips, and the hatred in her heart was like a burning flame.

She pretended to be frightened and shrank like a wounded rabbit, looking pitiful and helpless.

Zhou Chen still rubbed his head against the ground, not noticing how weak, pitiful and helpless she was.

Xing Guoguo just found it funny:

"You don't have to feel that I am humiliating you. I just want to ask you, what kind of girl from a good family would be alone with a strange man and cuddle with him?!"

The Queen Mother sat high up at the top, her eyes like a sharp knife, stern and sharp, as if she could see into people's hearts through all obstacles.

On both sides of her, the palace maids stood with their hands hanging down, silent, like a group of sculptures, quietly waiting for the Empress Dowager's instructions.

Su Suwan's face flushed, and there was a hint of shame and anger in her eyes at being exposed:

"Zhou Chen and I love each other, there's nothing shameful about it!"

Xin Guoguo sneered and said nothing more.

But Su Suwan felt her disdain and her face turned pale.

"Chen'er, your mother will give you three days. During these three days, you go to the Buddha to copy scriptures and think carefully about your responsibilities. After three days, I want to hear your answer!"

Xin Guoguo stared at Su Suwan silently, with no dissatisfaction or disgust in her eyes.

She was talking to Zhou Chen, but her eyes were looking at her.

"My son, I obey."

Zhou Chen felt uncomfortable.

He slowly raised his head, only to see his mother's back as she turned and left, slowly disappearing from his sight.

Su Suwan felt as if her heart was stabbed by something.

Although the Queen Mother is gone, the disdain she left behind has always lingered in Su Suwan's heart.

A servant came over and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please."

Zhou Chen looked at the weak girl beside him and wanted to reach out to pull her, but when he thought of his mother's words, he took his hand back:

"Someone, Miss Fusu, get up."

Su Suwan watched his actions and felt her heart sink.

She looked at Zhou Chen with disbelief and red eyes.

Zhou Chen felt a little distressed:

"Su Wan, I was reckless before and made you suffer. Don't worry, I will definitely get the Queen Mother's approval!"

Su Suwan pulled the corners of her lips with difficulty, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying:

"Su Wan believes in Your Majesty."

Zhou Chen looked at his beloved girl and felt bitter in his heart. He also secretly hated himself for not paying more attention and letting Su Wan get hurt like this!

He ordered someone to send Su Suwan back to the meditation room where she lived, and he went to the Buddha obediently.

Xin Guoguo returned to the meditation room and collapsed on the chaise longue.

She waved her hand to let the servants go out, then she picked up an apple and started to eat it.

Aunt Deng's eyebrows jumped, and she looked outside quickly. Seeing no one, she patted her chest and said:

"Oh, my Queen Mother! Please be careful! If someone sees this, the censors will nag you again!"

Xing Guoguo curled her lips:

"Let them come! I am about to return the government. If they keep nagging me, I will move in with them! I have wasted all these years!"

After hearing these bandit-like words, Nanny Deng felt a headache.

Xin Guoguo doesn't care about that.

She waved her hand and said, "Madame Deng, please sit down and eat too. Those two came over suddenly just now and we couldn't even finish our meal! What bad luck!

"If I had known my son would be like this, I would have given him a piece of barbecued pork instead! He only knows how to irritate me!

"Ouch! No, my chest hurts from all the anger! I need three bowls of yogurt to get better!"

Seeing her master acting like a fool, Madam Deng was helpless: "Master, wait, I will do it for you right away."

"Hehe! Mammy is the best!"

That sticky and coquettish look made Aunt Deng feel helpless and amused.

As usual, he pulled his master's hand and said, "Master, wait a moment."

"Uh-huh!"

Looks particularly well-behaved.

There is not even a single bit of the majesty from before!
