Chapter 975: What if the Mother Gains Status Through Her Son, Then...

"Miss, what miss?"

Su Pan'er was somewhat confused.

Jiu Lan was also somewhat embarrassed, "It's the young ladies from the homes of several ministers in the court, who've come to serve by His Majesty's side, and are currently waiting outside the hall to pay their respects to you, Empress."

Su Pan'er raised an eyebrow!

Observing Jiu Lan's respectful demeanor, she immediately understood what these young ladies were all about.

She set down her bamboo chopsticks heavily, "I won't see them."

"Understood, Empress."

Jiu Lan did not say much and quickly withdrew.

Mrs. Su-Hua listened silently, her gaze following Jiu Lan as she left, the smile slowly fading from her face.

"Those 'misses,' Mother does know a bit."
