Chapitre 399: Chapter 373: The Dog Emperor had such thoughts for Susu, confronting the Emperor directly

```

In the Emperor's moment of hesitation, the Empress's gaze also shifted over.

She understood the reason behind the dog Emperor's vacillation was Shen Chuwei's status.

The identity of Crown Princess must come from a prestigious family.

But Shen Chuwei, born as the illegitimate daughter of the Shen family, of the Minister of Rites, and with the Minister already dismissed from office, truly had nobody of consequence behind her as Lady Shen.

She herself was able to become Crown Princess smoothly only by relying on her maternal family, and at that time, it was her maternal family's prestige and power that the Emperor had regarded.

In fact, even less than Lady Shen.

At least, it wasn't because Lady Shen could be of help to him that he considered supporting Lady Shen to be Crown Princess.
