Chapter 883

Su Jin had been by Empress Dowager Zhou's side for several decades and this was the first time she had seen her this happy. The emperor's marriage was a large stone in the Empress Dowager's heart and now that it had finally fallen, she couldn't help feeling happy for the Empress Dowager.

She wiped her tears and first sent someone to inform the minister of rites to come to the Peaceful Life Palace. Then she went to investigate the green clothed girl's name and background.

This was because the green clothed girl was the future empress, so her background had to be clear, otherwise how could she explain it to the people of the world?

Su Jin's investigation was very careful this time. She carefully checked the invitation of every girl that entered the palace and sent people to each girl's home to ask. The result was that among the girls that entered the palace, there was not a single one with a birthmark or a lame leg!

This answer was like a stick to her head, instantly stunning Su Jin.

This green clothed girl was really like the Empress Dowager said, an extra!

Su Jin took in a cold breath. She began to think back to what Empress Dowager Zhou had said and the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became. In the end, she couldn't help suspecting that this green clothed girl that appeared out of nowhere was really the Chen girl that married to East Qin, right?

Once this thought arose, it would linger in her heart, making her feel uneasy.

She thought about it and knew that there was only one person that could solve this mystery for her.

Mo Chuan carried the green clothed girl and left the royal garden with large steps, heading straight for his palace.

Xiao Si, who was guarding the palace, was shocked when he saw the emperor carrying a green clothed girl in his arms. When he saw the green clothed girl's appearance, he was even more shocked.

This ….. Why was this girl this ugly!

"Emperor!"

"Guard here. Without this one's orders, no one is allowed to come in, otherwise this one will hold you accountable!"

When Xiao Si called out, Mo Chuan spoke without even turning his head.

"Yes, emperor."

Xiao Si immediately stopped walking. He stared in a daze as the emperor carried that frighteningly ugly girl into the bedroom and then slammed the door shut.

The heavy slamming of the door seemed like it had hit him, making his body tremble.

What was going on?

Didn't the emperor go to choose the empress? Why did he suddenly come back carrying a girl? Who was that girl? It couldn't be the empress that the emperor chose this time, right?

Xiao Si was covered in a cold sweat from his own guess, but he immediately shook his head in denial.

No, definitely not!

This girl was so ugly that people wouldn't want to look at her a second time. She wasn't even fit to be the emperor's footwashing maid. It was even more impossible for the emperor to take a fancy to her!

But if the Emperor didn't like her, why would he hug her so tightly? But if the emperor didn't like her, why would he tightly hug her?

Xiao Si had been by the emperor's side for at least ten years. Other than the Ding Yuan Princess, Xiao Si had never seen the emperor touch a girl's clothes.

There was definitely something strange about this matter!

Mo Chuan carried the green clothed girl into the room, but he did not put her down. Rather he hugged her even tighter. His eyes that had been silent for a long time were filled with a strong passion that seemed like it was about to burst into flames.

"Ning 'er. er." He looked at the girl in his arms and said in a soft voice.

The girl chuckled and said, "Now that there's no one here, why don't you put me down?"

Mo Chuan also smiled. His smile was like the thawing of the glacier and the blooming of spring flowers.
