Chapter 473

The temple door was open and there were only two red candles burning in front of the shrine, but there was no one inside.

Empress Dowager Zhou only took a look before giving an almost imperceptible sigh and continuing to walk forward.

Su Jin wanted to say something several times, but she swallowed it back down.

She was just a servant and an old person in the palace. She knew what she could say and what she couldn't say.

Empress Dowager Zhou habitually walked in the direction of the Spring Jade. Whenever she felt dizzy, she couldn't help sniffing the flower to clear her mind.

But after taking two steps, she remembered that the flower had disappeared.

"Tomorrow I'll plant a Spring Jade Orchid here." Empress Dowager Zhou looked at the empty hole in the ground for a bit before slowly turning around to walk back.

After taking two steps, she stopped.

"Su Jin, tell me, did this widow do anything wrong today?" She suddenly asked in a soft voice.

Su Jin lowered her head and said in a low voice, "This servant doesn't know."

Empress Dowager Zhou did not look at her and continued walking forward. Su Jin followed behind her, only hearing Empress Dowager Zhou's low voice, as if she was talking to herself.

"When this widow entered the palace in the past, I was the same age as her. After all these years, this widow's hair has turned white and there are wrinkles on my face. This widow is old, I am no longer the young girl of the past, but this widow has also been young before, so how could I not understand a young girl's thoughts?"

Su Jin still did not say anything.

She knew that Empress Dowager Zhou only needed a pair of good ears, she did not need someone to listen to her.

So she just silently listened.

"The emperor likes her, you like her, this widow also ….. likes her. This widow is not willing to be the merciless stick that separates a couple and this widow does not want the emperor to hate his mother, only ….."

Empress Dowager Zhou stopped in front of a begonia flower. The petals were soft and delicate. She gently stroked it and her voice was filled with a cold intent.

"Only she cannot be left alive!"

Su Jin's body trembled as she watched Empress Dowager Zhou pluck the flower and crush the petals.

She suddenly trembled and her eyes were filled with fear.

"Empress Dowager!" She cried out in a low voice.

Empress Dowager Zhou coldly looked at her, "What, do you think this widow will send someone to kill her?"

Su Jin bit her lips and did not say a word.

"Your guess is correct, this widow does want to kill her. As long as she dies, all of these troubles will disappear. But if this widow really sends someone to kill her, there is no wall in this world that doesn't leak. The emperor will find out sooner or later and if that day comes, this widow will lose this son. "

Empress Dowager Zhou gave a sigh. She couldn't understand Mo Chuan's son better than anyone else. If she killed his beloved woman, he wouldn't even want his mother anymore.

"I didn't touch her. I only sent someone to send her back to where she came from. I hope that Shaoyang will treat her well and that the Emperor will slowly forget her."

Being able to do this was already the greatest concession she could make.

's.,'s, I.., Dowager. Su. Su, Su, Su, Su, Su, he, Su Jin observed Empress Dowager Zhou's expression and found that when Empress Dowager Zhou mentioned Chen Ning, she was no longer as angry as before. Rather, there was a faint trace of pity and appreciation.
