Chapter 1000

"Once the coronation ceremony is over, it will be too late."

A purple robed old man with white hair and beard came out. His thin face was covered in wrinkles and he gave off an imposing aura. He looked at Chen Ning before cupping his hands to Empress Dowager Zhou and saying.

"Empress Dowager, this old minister wants to ask, is the newly titled empress the daughter of great general Chen? Is she King Ding Yuan's princess? "

Although he was old, his voice was very powerful.

This question asked the question in the hearts of all the ministers.

Everyone's eyes turned to look at Empress Dowager Zhou.

Empress Dowager Zhou's face was still calm, "So what if it is and so what if it isn't?"

Minister Xie loudly said, "I heard that the empress was personally chosen by the Empress Dowager for the emperor, but why did she suddenly become the Ding Yuan Princess? The Ding Yuan Princess is clearly the emperor's junior, how could she become the empress of a country? The emperor's empress is actually his nephew's princess, isn't this a mess? This old minister does not understand this, so I ask the Empress Dowager to explain! "

The ministers all nodded and agreed in unison.

"Minister Xie's words are reasonable, I ask the Empress Dowager to reconsider!"

"The Ding Yuan Princess cannot become the empress no matter what!"

"If the emperor really makes her the empress, she will be ridiculed by others, she can't do that!"

Although Empress Dowager Zhou had already expected this scene, she was still speechless from the ministers' questions.

Her old face was hot and she couldn't help looking at Mo Chuan. Her heart was filled with anger. She had already told him not to cause a ruckus, but he did not listen. Now that the scene was in chaos, how could she clean it up!

The ministers all spoke out, all opposing Chen Ning as the empress. Moreover, they were all filled with anger and their words became more and more unpleasant. Most of the words were aimed at Chen Ning, making Empress Dowager Zhou's old face turn red and green, feeling very embarrassed.

The solemn coronation ceremony had turned into a farce and could not be carried on any longer.

Chen Ning slowly stood up in front of everyone's questioning voices. Her figure was tall and her snow white hair was black. Her clear as water eyes slowly swept over the ministers.

There was no anger or shame on her face, it was like the person everyone was insulting wasn't her at all.

When the gazes of the ministers and her clear eyes met, they were all slightly shocked. Words like "not following the ways of a woman", "marrying one after another", and other slanderous words could no longer be said.

Although Chen Ning did not say a single word, it made all of them feel very embarrassed.

They suddenly thought, what qualifications did they have to criticize her? Insult her? Humiliate her?

If it wasn't for her, how could they, the ministers, stand here calmly and loudly discuss her right and wrong?

How could the West Chu citizens be like this, living a stable life with ample food and clothing?

It was she who came forward when West Chu was in danger. It was she who won against the East Qin Crown Prince, and it was she who sacrificed herself to marry into East Qin.

The things she had done for the West Chu Country was much more than any of them!

Today, the one who was most qualified to stand here and criticize was not them, but her!

Seeing the ministers all close their mouths, Empress Dowager Zhou couldn't help looking at Chen Ning with a strange gaze.

She actually used just one look to quell everyone's discussion. This Empress was even more imposing than her, the Empress Dowager.
