"The concubine will be the concubine. The third prince and I have already reached an agreement. No matter what status you marry, he will not be able to treat you harshly."
Mu Xuanmei no longer remembered how she returned to the room. She sat in a daze on the familiar bed, but could not see any warmth in her eyes.
Aunt Feng was seriously injured in bed, and she was named a concubine. Her father favored Mu Xuanyi and did not even allow her to question her. One incident after another, her favor for more than ten years was shattered.
Not much left.
And the root of all this is Mu Xuanyi!
Mu Xuanyi! I want you to die badly!
There was a cold light in Mu Xuanmei's eyes. She was too kind to Mu Xuanyi before, which allowed her to have such an opportunity to humiliate her, but it won't happen again. She will never give in even half a step!
Mu Xuanyi didn't know what method Mu Zhiyuan used to make Mu Xuanmei compromise, but it seemed that Zheng had been very docile in the past few days. She stayed in the room, ate when the food was served, and didn't go out. At most, she just walked around the yard.
, there was a maid waiting beside him, and although his mental state was not particularly good, he looked completely different from before.
"I will enter the palace tomorrow. Then you can stay at home and don't worry about those people outside. They can't come in."
Before leaving, Mu Xuanyi gave her another instruction.
"The situation in the palace is complicated, you have to be careful." Mrs. Zheng put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked at Mu Xuanyi worriedly.
This daughter is much better than myself. She can accomplish things in an orderly manner that she cannot do.
Mrs. Zheng began to wonder if she had done something wrong from the beginning. Ever since Mu Xuanyi came back, she had already held her back too much.
She felt guilty for this daughter, but she didn't know how to help her. Maybe as long as she stayed here, it would be the greatest help to Mu Xuanyi.
"I know, please take care of yourself." Mu Xuanyi nodded, said a few polite words to Mrs. Zheng, then stood up and left the dining table.
It was night, Mu Xuanyi watched the door of her room being opened, and a small figure crept in.
"Mother!" He realized that Mu Xuanyi was staring at him the moment he came in, and he quickly stood up straight and smiled at her in a flattering way.
"It's so late, what are you doing here if you don't want to sleep?" Mu Xuanyi lit the lamp and saw that Xiao Longbao was already wearing pajamas and was holding something behind his back.
"What's that in your hand? You don't want to sneak over here in the middle of the night and poison me, do you?" Mu Xuanyi knew, of course, that he or she didn't have the guts, so she asked half-jokingly.
Xiao Longbao shook his head: "I see that my mother has eaten very little in the past two days, and she will definitely be hungry at night, so I secretly left some food for her, mother, eat!"
She took out the things behind her, which were two pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake. She held the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in front of her and swallowed her saliva. It was so fragrant! God knows how much effort she put into overcoming the temptation of delicious food.
Mu Xuanyi felt soft in her heart: "Thank you for the Xiao Long Bao. I'm not hungry. You can eat it yourself."
Xiao Longbao's eyes lit up, but he immediately pouted again: "Does my mother dislike my unclean hands? I always wrap them with cloth, they are clean!"
She hesitated, then took Mu Xuanyi's hand and put a piece into her palm: "There are two pieces in total, one for my mother and one for me. Hehe, this way everyone will have something to eat."
Mu Xuanyi did not refuse this time. She ate the sweet osmanthus cake, put her hand on Xiaolong's bun, and rubbed the soft hair. The light in her eyes became a little gentler.
Staying with Mrs. Zheng, she had been thinking about Mrs. Zheng these past few days and didn't smile much at all. Unexpectedly, she was discovered by Xiao Longbao and came over at night.
When Mu Xuanyi left very early the next day, it was still bright and the palace servants were already waiting outside.
She sat at the dressing table and put on her makeup, then gave Xiao Long Bao two sky-high buns and tied two bells. Xiao Long Bao shook his head, his hair swayed, and the bells rang loudly, which was particularly cute.
"Let's go." Mu Xuanyi took her hand and went out, passing by Zheng's door without stopping.
After people went out, Ms. Zheng opened the door and looked at the closed courtyard door. She didn't know what she was thinking.
When they arrived at the palace, Mu Xuanyi had already made plans to go to the East Palace alone, but who knew that she saw Feng Yun waiting there in the distance.
She was stunned for a moment: "Master Feng got up early today."
"Today is the day you enter the palace. If I don't get up early to see these things, what if someone takes the opportunity to embarrass you?" Feng Yunxian followed her with a hint of smile in his words.
Mu Xuanyi nodded: "What you said makes sense. With Master Feng by my side, I feel much more at ease."
"Thank you so much, Mr. Feng, a few days ago. If you hadn't come here, I'm afraid there would have been a tough battle." She didn't believe it was such a coincidence that Feng Yunxian came here, after all, they had just separated not long ago.
Feng Yunxian smiled: "You must thank me for that. After I separated from you, I went directly to the palace. After asking for the imperial edict from His Majesty, I rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion without stopping. Fortunately, I didn't go too late and helped in time.
Fucked you."
"Master Feng came just in time." Mu Xuanyi felt that Feng Yunxian was a capable person, and he was really helpful when he was busy!
"Yes, there is one more thing I haven't explained to you. Princess Anping from the palace has recently returned. You should be careful when meeting her." When they were about to arrive at the East Palace, Feng Yunxian said someone.
"Princess Anping? Is she the princess who was sent to the temple to pray for blessings the year before last?" After staying in the capital for a while, Mu Xuanyi also learned a lot about the situation here.
"That's right," Feng Yunxian nodded in agreement, with worry on his face, "I'm afraid you will have to stay in the palace for a longer time this time. That princess always does things her own way and never listens to other people's opinions. If you
If you bump into her, she will bear your grudge for a long time."
"Don't worry, I stay with you in the East Palace on weekdays and don't go anywhere else. Now she can't pick on me anymore, can she?" Mu Xuanyi winked mischievously.
Feng Yunxian was silent for a moment and nodded: "I will often go to His Highness the Crown Prince to see you. If there is anything you want to eat or something you like, just tell me and I will bring it to you when I go there.
superior."
"The royal chefs in the palace are all very good. How can they be as hard as Master Feng as you said?" Mu Xuanyi laughed, "But I still have to thank Master Feng for thinking about me. If necessary, I will definitely not be polite to Master Feng."
While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the East Palace. Feng Yunxian was not a major figure today, and it was not easy to go in at this time without reporting, so he could only watch Mu Xuanyi enter.
