Mrs. Zhou pursed her lips and was not willing to give up even after being warned. She whispered to persuade: "My queen, please help the family."

Zhou Ruo took the trouble: "I said, I can't help, Your Majesty won't listen to me."

Mrs. Zhou quickly said: "How could it be? His Majesty loves you the most. What's more, you are still pregnant with His Majesty's child. When your child is born, a mother is more valuable than a child, and maybe His Majesty will directly make you a wife as soon as he is happy. Where is the queen?"

She repeatedly mentioned the child in Zhou Ruo's belly, which made Zhou Ruo extremely upset, and he blurted out: "Your Majesty has already chosen someone, and even if he wants to be crowned queen, it will never be me."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Ruo instantly knew something was wrong. Zhou Chen had warned her not to get involved with that person's affairs.

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she looked at Zhou Ruo in shock: "What did you say? Your Majesty..."

"I didn't say anything," Zhou Ruo interrupted her somewhat eagerly and said in a deep voice, "You didn't hear anything. Do you understand?"

Mrs. Zhou: "..."

Zhou Ruo was afraid that Mrs. Zhou would continue to pester him, so he said in a deep voice: "Is it true that my father is greedy for ink?"

As expected, Mrs. Zhou's attention was diverted. After hearing these words, she was silent for a moment, and then whispered with some embarrassment: "Your father didn't take much. I thought nothing would happen. Who knows..."

"Then you are really greedy for ink!" Zhou Ruo interrupted Mrs. Zhou and said in a deep voice.

Mrs. Zhou remained silent, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Zhou Ruo raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, gritted his teeth and said, "When I first did it, why didn't I expect this day to come?"

Mrs. Zhou pursed her lips and remained silent. Now that the situation was pressing, she could only endure it.

Zhou Ruodao: "I will find a way to deal with my father and brother. You can go back first."

Seeing that Zhou Ruo finally relented, Mrs. Zhou's eyes lit up: "That's great. I knew you were a good boy and you would never leave him alone."

"Don't worry, as long as your family gets through this difficult time, it will be your strongest support from now on. I understand now that our Zhou family will both prosper and suffer. Madam, we will definitely help you."

Zhou Ruo was impatient to listen to her nonsense and had her sent away directly.

After Mrs. Zhou left, Cuiping frowned and said, "Mother, do you really want to help?"

Zhou Ruo looked very ugly and said in a deep voice: "I want help, but I can't ask His Majesty directly for help."

She was simply not qualified to speak in front of the emperor.

Cuiping pursed her lips, feeling quite dissatisfied: "They should suffer a little."

Zhou Ruo glanced at her and said, "She is right in what she said. The Zhou family is both prosperous and devastated. If anything happens to the Zhou family, I will be the only one who gets the laugh."

"You go to Yinghua Palace to guard tomorrow. After you see your cousin, invite him to come. I have something to ask him."

Cuiping agreed.

On the other side, Mrs. Zhou came out of the palace and looked back at the majestic palace gate behind her. She was thinking that there was indeed someone in the court who was easy to do. If this week is just a favorite concubine, wouldn't it mean that if she becomes a queen in the future, she will have greater rights?

By then, wouldn't the Zhou family be able to influence everything in the court?

When Mrs. Zhou thought of this, her eyes lit up.

However, she thought of what Zhou Ruo had said unintentionally before: The emperor had his heart set on him, and the candidate for the queen could not be her, Zhou Ruo.

Mrs. Zhou frowned, somewhat confused. Now that Zhou Ruo was the only concubine in the harem, who was the person who attracted the emperor's attention?
