The more polite she was, the angrier Empress Dowager Zhou became.
She suddenly slapped the table and said in a sharp voice, "Stop pretending in front of this widow, look at what you've done! As the empress, you actually dare to not admit what you did? "She glared at Chen Ning.
Chen Ning said in a gentle voice, "Mother, please calm your anger. This minister's wife really does not understand mother's meaning. If mother feels that this minister's wife did something wrong, please point it out. This minister's wife will definitely correct it, but please don't be angry. Mother, have you ever heard of the saying that being angry is using other people's mistakes to punish yourself? If this minister's wife did something wrong, then mother can scold or hit me, but please don't harm your body because of this minister's wife's mistake, otherwise this minister's wife will be guilty. "
Her words were spoken in a calm and unperturbed manner.
Su Jin stared at her, simply completely convinced.
Being able to maintain this kind of calm tone in front of Empress Dowager Zhou's anger, the empress was the only one!
A large portion of Empress Dowager Zhou's anger had unknowingly disappeared. Especially when she heard "being angry is using other people's mistakes to punish yourself", her heart skipped a beat and she almost nodded her head in agreement.
She calmed herself down and then her anger rose again, "You think that just because you have a sharp tongue, you can talk your way out of this? Don't think you can deny what you did! Alright, since you don't admit that you did something wrong, this widow will clearly tell you. Zhao Rong is a princess personally appointed by the emperor and her father is the first grade Duke Ning of the dynasty who was given the title of Crown Prince. Even this widow has not hit a single finger on her, so who do you think you are? You actually dare to hit and scold her? Do you know that hitting the princess is the same as hitting the emperor and hitting the royal family's face! Empress, you still won't admit your guilt! "
Chen Ning thought that it really was for the princess Zhao Rong.
Mo Chuan's face sunk and he said, "Mother, this matter has nothing to do with the empress. Mother shouldn't listen to Zhao Rong's side of the story ….."
Before he could finish, he was already cut off by Empress Dowager Zhou's cold voice.
"Shut up for this widow. This widow still hasn't found you about your matter, it's not your turn to speak right now!"
Mo Chuan closed his mouth and looked over at Chen Ning, indicating for her to speak in a more tactful manner, not angering Empress Dowager Zhou.
Chen Ning slightly looked down like she understood Mo Chuan's meaning.
Unhurriedly, she said, "I believe that Imperial Mother already knows everything that happened in the Imperial Study, right?"
Chen Ning said, "Mother is correct, this minister's wife did send people to slap the princess Zhao Rong. This minister's wife knows her guilt."
Chen Ning said, "Mother is right, this minister's wife sent people to slap the Zhao Rong princess. This minister's wife is indeed guilty, this minister's wife knows her crime."
Su Jin was shocked that she admitted her guilt so bluntly.
When Zhao Rong princess came to the Peaceful Life Palace to complain to Empress Dowager Zhou, she was on the side serving her. She saw that Zhao Rong princess had several red finger marks on both sides of her face. Zhao Rong insisted that the empress had sent guards to slap her and she was filled with doubt at that time. She thought that the empress was very dignified and didn't know Zhao Rong, so why would she give the order to slap the princess for no reason? Which guard would be so bold as to really make a move against the princess?
