"Yan'er, what did you do with Jiang's side?" the old prince suddenly asked.
Because she came so late just now, she probably went to Jiang's place.
Mu Qingyan answered obediently: "Mu Yun guarantees with her life that Jiang will behave herself in the future."
"Ha, she actually cares about her mother." The old prince snorted coldly, and he guessed his granddaughter's intention as soon as he thought about it.
Sighing slightly, "That's all, just keep her for a while, remove her from the position of concubine, and let her reflect in the yard!"
Shangguan Rou glanced at her daughter worriedly. Once this incident is over, Jiang will definitely be even more resentful towards Yan'er. It would be fine if she calms down, but if something goes wrong, she will be in trouble.
She blamed herself: "The daughter-in-law of Jiang's family is also responsible."
Mu Nanping held her hand and comforted her, saying, "I don't blame you."
"Mom, you don't have to blame yourself. It's her own fault. What's more, she deserves it because she's ungrateful." Mu Qingyan said.
Despite this, Shangguan Rou felt angry and regretful. If she hadn't spoken out in the first place, her father-in-law would not have agreed to let Jiang in, and he would not have targeted Yan'er.
The old prince glanced at her but said nothing. He knew that this daughter-in-law was kind-hearted, but she was also a bit weak-tempered.
I hope she can learn a lesson from this incident.
The adults were busy, so Mu Qingyan separated from them and walked in the direction of Liuyan Pavilion.
Mu Qingyan lowered her head and walked thoughtfully. She was a little confused now because of Bailiyou.
I always feel that he has changed a bit. Even if he liked her in his previous life, he would not rush to the palace. But this is different now. Last time, he suddenly went to the Prime Minister's Palace to find her.
And that night when he sneaked into the palace and met her.
It seems that he is more proactive than before.
This change made Mu Qingyan not sure whether to be happy or worried.
Bailiyou is so proactive, Bailiqi will definitely receive the news. He finally calmed down for a few days, and he will probably come soon.
At the moment, she hasn't found Baili Qi's weakness and has a handle on him. Can she offend both parties too harshly?
But what should she do?
Although she had been trained by her grandfather and father since she was a child, as a legitimate daughter, she could not be too naive, but because she had devoted herself to Baili Qi in her previous life, she had almost forgotten about it.
However, she did apply the methods she used to help Baili Qi to herself.
yes!
Mu Qingyan's eyes suddenly brightened, this was okay, what she needed most now was her own power.
Grandpa gave her a lot of rights. In the past, they were all given directly to Baili Qi. Now they are still in her hands, so why not use them to expand her own strength.
Behind her, Fenxiang looked at her master's back and hesitated to speak. She still hadn't come to her senses yet, but His Highness the Crown Prince actually came and sat with the young lady.
In the past, I often heard in the old prince's courtyard that His Highness the Crown Prince liked young ladies. Now that I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that the rumors were true. His Highness really liked young ladies.
It's a pity that Miss...
Fenxiang quickly put an end to the unwanted thoughts in her mind. How could she speculate about her master's affairs at will? She really deserved to be beaten.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Mu Xuan walking slowly from not far away.
She was stunned. Just when she was about to remind Mu Qingyan out loud, she saw Mu Xuan make a gesture of rejection, and she could only shut her mouth silently.
The lady really likes to be distracted.
"Yan'er? Yan'er?" Mu Xuan looked at her curiously. She was obviously walking, but his eyes didn't look like he was looking at the road seriously.
Her brother's call came to her ears and she came back to her senses. She raised her head and stared blankly at Mu Xuan, who was waving to her in front of her, "Brother, why are you here?"
Seeing his sister react, Mu Xuan put down his hand and walked side by side with her, "What? Are you thinking about the prince?"
He thought Bailiyou suddenly came and distracted her.
Mu Qingyan shook her head and answered truthfully: "I'm thinking about Baili Qi."
Suddenly, Mu Xuan stopped in his tracks. Seeing his reaction, Mu Qingyan realized that her statement had been misunderstood, and quickly added: "No, brother, I was thinking about how to avoid Baili Qi."
It’s not how you want to marry him!
Mu Xuan stared at her face doubtfully, "Avoid him?"
Yan'er likes him very much and wants to marry him immediately.
Mu Qingyan knew what she was like before, so she smiled slightly awkwardly, "Well, brother, don't worry, I have already figured it out, Baili Qi is not worth it."
Although he had heard his sister say this before, Mu Xuan always felt that the credibility was not high. It was not clear to him how much his sister loved Baili Qi at the beginning, so how could he look away so easily?
"Brother, do you believe it?" Mu Qingyan was heartbroken and simply hugged his arm and started acting coquettishly.
But she felt like crying but had no tears in her heart. It seemed that she needed to work hard to change other people's impressions of her.
Otherwise, others will regard her as crazy.
Mu Xuan stood there and pursed his lips, suddenly touched her forehead with the back of his other hand, then put it down again, muttering to himself: "I don't have a fever."
Why is her behavior suddenly so abnormal? It's completely unlike her.
Mu Qingyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, her face turned red, "Brother!"
How could this be?
"Okay, okay!" Mu Xuan immediately raised his hands in surrender, "I was wrong, I shouldn't miss you like this."
She helplessly raised her head and said, "Brother, I've really thought about it. That Baili Qi is just a bastard."
"Yeah." He agreed with this.
"But we can just talk about this between brothers and sisters, but don't say it outside." Mu Xuan rubbed her head lovingly, "It's good to think about it, and we don't want you to jump into the fire pit.
.”
His sudden seriousness made Mu Qingyan blush, remembering those stupid things she had done in the early years, which really ruined the meeting with the Mu family, "I'm sorry..."
Her eyes were red and her tone was much lower. Mu Xuan sighed softly, "Even if you see clearly, he won't let you go."
Baili Qi has always wanted to sit on the throne of the prince, and he is close to Yan'er simply because she has the Mu family behind her.
Mu Qingyan nodded, "I know, so I have to guard against him, so brother, help me think of a way."
"how do you want to do it?"
When he asked this, Mu Qingyan hesitated, but she still said: "I want to become stronger."
"Huh?" Mu Xuan looked at her in surprise.
"I can't always be under your protection. Now the Holy One is afraid of the Mu family and will take action sooner or later. Bailiqi will do the same. Although I don't know why I have to marry into the East Palace, there must be something hidden. Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sincerely treats me
I'm fine, but he is a member of the Baili family after all. Only when I am strong can I make you feel at ease."
She can no longer just be a weak legitimate daughter, she is the daughter of a general.
After hearing what his sister said, Mu Xuan was a little surprised, because this was the first time Yan'er said such words. After a while, he said with both relief and distress: "Brother, I know you know everything in your heart, but we will protect you."
Yes, you don’t have to worry.”
If Bailiqi hadn't made Yan'er lose herself, she would only be better now. How could someone taught by her grandfather not understand anything?
