Chapter 383

Mo Chuan was sitting high up on the dragon throne. His slender fingers held a cup of wine, but he did not bring it to his lips.

Looking around, the ministers and families were all filled with joy. Everyone was enjoying the fragrance, drinking the wine, and admiring the flowers. Everyone's hearts were filled with joy.

Only his heart was filled with melancholy.

He really wanted to look at someone, but he couldn't and he didn't dare look. He could only control his gaze and not look in that direction.

His heart was filled with annoyance. He raised the cup and drank it all in one gulp. After waiting for a while, he did not see Xiao Si pour any wine for him.

"Xiao Si!" He glanced over and saw Xiao Si standing behind him. His eyes were in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. He did not even notice that his cup was empty.

"Emperor, this servant deserves to die!" Xiao Si suddenly came back to his senses. Seeing Mo Chuan's deep eyes staring at him, he was so scared that his body trembled and he fell to the ground.

"What are you panicking for? Pour wine for this one!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Xiao Si picked up the wine jug and poured wine. Who would have thought that his hand would suddenly tremble and the wine would fall onto the back of Mo Chuan's hand.

He was covered in a cold sweat from fright and he fell to the ground again, "This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die."

Mo Chuan did not say anything and just stared at him. After a while, he finally spoke in a calm voice.

"Speak, what have you done to let this one down?"

"Emperor ….." Xiao Si's head drooped down, not daring to look up.

"Speak!"

Xiao Si had a crying face, "Emperor, this servant deserves to die. This servant went to the Empress Dowager's palace ….."

Before he finished, he raised his hand and fiercely slapped himself, "This servant spoke too much. I'll slap this talkative servant!"

Mo Chuan immediately understood his meaning and his chest filled with rage. He forcefully threw the wine cup and with a crisp sound, it shattered into pieces.

"This servant deserves to die!" Xiao Si kept kowtowing.

Some of the ministers noticed the abnormality and turned their gazes over.

Mo Chuan angrily shouted in a deep voice, "Scram! Why aren't you sending the Ding Yuan Princess out of the palace! "

Xiao Si quickly crawled up from the ground. He knew that he had caused a large disaster and his face turned pale.

"Yes, yes, yes. This servant will immediately go."

When he was prepared to head in Chen Ning's direction, he suddenly heard a loud voice announcing his arrival.

"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"

When the people in the hall heard this, they all put down their chopsticks and cups and stood up.

Didn't they say that the Empress Dowager had been ill for a long time? Didn't they say that the Empress Dowager was sick?

Soon after, everyone came to a realization. Some ministers and officials who had brought their wives and daughters to attend the banquet couldn't help but reveal a knowing smile on their faces.

The Empress Dowager had personally come to pick the emperor's concubine.

The Emperor had not had the emperor's concubine. yet.

Mo Chuan angrily glared at Xiao Si. It was already impossible to send Chen Ning away because the Empress Dowager's carriage had already appeared outside the Refreshing Palace.

Mo Chuan in. with it. there. with the eight eit all. with the light, the emperor said, the sea, in, in, in, in in.

Mo Chuan took a deep breath and walked down from the dragon throne, taking the lead to welcome them.

"We greet the Empress Dowager. We wish the Empress Dowager good health."

The ministers in the hall all knelt down behind Mo Chuan. Chu Shao Yang also pulled Chen Ning to kneel behind everyone.
