"..."
The Empress’s expression was slightly stiff.
So after all this, this was her plan?
"This way, not only can we divide the Chen Family and the Shen Family, but it’s also a happy event for Zhu’er. What do you think, Sister?" Lady Jin Yun said.
Although it might not be fair to the Shen Family, for the sake of her daughter’s happiness, she couldn’t care less.
The Empress silently placed the crab cake she had taken a bite of back into the food box, picked up a napkin to wipe her lips, and said calmly, "I have four words for you..."
"A win-win solution?"
"Don’t even think about it."
"..."
Lady Jin Yun furrowed her brow and, confused, asked, "Doesn’t Sister also value Chen Mo highly? Why are you so against him being with Zhu’er?"
The Empress sighed and said, "Do you think I would harm Zhu’er? Although Chen Mo is very capable, he is definitely not a good choice for a son-in-law. Zhu’er... she can’t handle him."
That little thief is not only very fickle, but he’s also quite adept at tormenting people. How could Zhu’er’s little frame withstand it?
This kind of suffering should be borne by me alone.
"But..."
Lady Jin Yun hesitated to speak.
Seeing the Empress’s demeanor, she knew that it was unlikely she could change her mind.
For some reason, whenever Chen Mo was mentioned, the Empress’s reaction was strange... as if she had an inexplicable sense of possession.
Could it be...
Lady Jin Yun dared not think further, shook her head and said, "Forget it, let’s not mention this matter for now. Whatever steps they can take together depends on themselves. As elders, we shouldn’t interfere."
The Empress naturally understood her implied meaning—
I can refrain from asking for an imperial marriage decree, so you shouldn’t interfere with their relationship; let it develop naturally.
"It seems Jin Yun hasn’t given up yet."
"In any case, I have already made it very clear to Chen Mo. If he dares to have designs on Zhu’er, I...I won’t kiss him anymore!"
"But speaking of it, that little thief kisses really well, almost sucking the soul out of a person. I wonder how many girls he practiced on..."
The Empress’s thoughts wandered a bit, and she subconsciously licked her lips.
The atmosphere inside the hall was silent for a moment.
At this time, Jin Yun casually said, "I wonder what Zhu’er has been busy with lately, haven’t seen her for several days. Could it be there are many cases at the Government?"
?!
The Empress was suddenly startled awake.
Back then, when she and Lin Jingzhu were soaking in the bath, they heard from Sun Senior Palace Lady about the incident with Chen Mo, and Lin Jingzhu immediately rushed out, saying she would personally search for Chen Mo’s whereabouts.
And at that time, she was so shocked that she forgot to stop her...
"Oh no!"
The Empress abruptly stood up and exclaimed, "That girl doesn’t know Chen Mo is back; she’s probably still searching for him in the Southern Border right now!"
Jin Yun: ?
