Inside the palace, a woman in pink and orange palace clothes walked back and forth. She clasped her hands and looked at the door from time to time, as if she was waiting for someone.
Suddenly, two figures appeared at the door. The woman in palace clothes felt a shadow flash in the room. She turned her head and looked at the door. A smile appeared on her face and she went straight to meet them.
"Yan'er, Jingnan, you are here."
Glancing at the man beside him, Yun Yan smiled lightly, let go of his hand, stepped forward directly, took the man's hand, and said with a smile: "Auntie, I kept you waiting for a long time."
"No, I'm very happy that you can come. Come in quickly." Mu Xuening's beautiful face was filled with a gentle smile. Now her Yan'er has really grown up and has become her niece-in-law. This is
It was such a big happy event that she directly pulled Yun Yan inside.
Behind him, Mu Jingnan's eyes fell on the clasped hands of the two of them. He moved his eyebrows and glanced around. There was no maid waiting in the entire palace, so he followed and walked in.
Mu Xuening pulled Yun Yan to sit on the couch, leaving Mu Jingnan sitting on the chair below.
"I haven't seen Yan'er for several days, and Yan'er didn't know to come to see me." Mu Xuening looked at Yun Yan and said with an angry smile.
Smiling slightly, Yun Yan explained: "As for aunt, I actually want to come to the palace to see you, but I couldn't enter the palace casually before. In the future, I will definitely come to the palace to accompany you from time to time."
"This is what Yan'er said." Mu Xuening was in a good mood and said with a smile.
Yun Yan nodded slightly. She also hoped to spend more time with Mu Xuening. After all, she was also a lonely person. Although she could not fully understand the loneliness in the palace, she still knew a little bit about it.
"By the way, the Queen Mother came to see you today. Did she have anything to say to you?" Mu Xuening glanced at Yun Yan, then looked at Mu Jingnan below and said, with a little worry on her eyebrows. She knew Yan'er last time
She felt uneasy when she was summoned by the Queen Mother, but because the Queen Mother had so many eyes and ears, she couldn't find Yan'er to ask questions at that time, so as not to cause more trouble to her.
Yun Yan glanced at Mu Jingnan below, shook his head at him, then looked at Mu Xuening and said calmly: "It's just a greeting, and the Queen Mother only expressed concern for me."
"Is that so?" Mu Xuening obviously didn't believe it and looked at Mu Jingnan below.
There was no change in expression on Mu Jingnan Junyi's face. He looked ahead and said calmly: "Don't worry, even if she says anything, it won't have any impact on Yan'er and me."
Mu Xuening was stunned and looked at Yun Yan, who also looked at her and nodded towards her.
"It seems that I am too worried, but Yan'er, you must remember that the Queen Mother is a deep-minded person. Don't believe her words." Mu Xuening felt relieved, but she still couldn't help but tell her, back then,
She would never forget the incident. How could that incident have happened if Empress Dowager Gao hadn't instigated it?
Yun Yan nodded and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I know."
With a satisfied smile, Mu Xuening glanced outside and said: "Why hasn't anyone brought refreshments yet?"
"Your Highness, Princess, please forgive me. Your servant will be sent up immediately." A female voice sounded from outside.
Listening to this voice, Mu Xuening's eyes moved, just for a moment, and then she looked at Yun Yan and said with a smile: "Refreshments will be here soon, Yan'er must be hungry."
Before Yun Yan could answer, someone below protested, "The emperor has forgotten his nephew since he had a wife. Why didn't you ask me if I was hungry? It seems that I am really not as good as Yan."
My son's position in the heart of the imperial aunt, hey..." Someone held his forehead and sighed, but his eyes were looking at the woman in the lavender dress above, and a soft color flashed across his face.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became more harmonious.
"Of course she can't compare to her. Yan'er is the one who is dear to my heart. Don't bully her." Mu Xuening said with a smile.
Mu Jingnan shook his head again, looking frustrated, "How dare I bully Yan'er? I don't know when Yan'er will deal with my family."
"Really?" Mu Xuening glanced at Yun Yan suspiciously, which made her a little curious.
Hearing this, Yun Yan was stunned. When did she deal with his family's crimes? However, when she looked at Mu Jingnan, he had a narrow smile on his face. She felt helpless. He knew how to pretend, so she should cooperate.
yes.
"I don't know how to deal with family law, but the worst thing is, I won't deal with him!" Yun Yan said to Mu Xuening with a pursed smile.
Mu Jingnan was stunned, and the smile on his face froze for a moment. His eyes moved, obviously he didn't expect that she would say this, and then he smiled helplessly.
Seeing this scene, Mu Xuening smiled knowingly. It seemed that Yan'er and Jingnan got along very well, so that was good.
"Yan'er, Jingnan is not young anymore. You should spread your wings early. Then I can hug my grandnephew." Mu Xuening suddenly leaned into Yun Yan's ear and whispered.
Down below, Mu Jingnan's ears twitched, he tilted his head, and his eyes fell on the door. A palace maid lowered her head and came in with tea.
When Yun Yan heard Mu Xuening's words, her face froze instantly. She glanced at the person below, and he was looking away. She looked at Mu Xuening slightly embarrassed and whispered: "Auntie..."
"Are Yan'er shy? All women after getting married will face this problem. However, my aunt just said it casually, so don't take it seriously. These are all your own decisions." Mu Xuening smiled and said
, turned his head and looked at the palace maid who walked in, her expression instantly serious, "Put down your things, you can go out."
"Yes!" The palace maid lowered her head, said respectfully, and continued to move forward.
Yun Yan lowered his head and looked at the ground, but the thoughts in his mind were spinning a thousand times. Did he hear it? Did he have such thoughts? Probably not. The great revenge has not been avenged, how could he be like this?
Thoughts. And she...heh, she couldn't help but shake her head, why is she thinking about such things now?
A figure approached and placed the tea on the table beside him. Suddenly, there was a "clang" sound and the tea tray fell to the ground. Yun Yan's heart skipped a beat, and a silver light flashed across her eyes.
"Hui'er——" Mu Xuening exclaimed, looking at the person who suddenly held a dagger. It was an ugly woman with a face full of scars, and she looked particularly ferocious. She was looking at him fiercely at this moment.
With Yun Yan.
A cold light flashed in Yun Yan's eyes, and he turned his body to the side, just in time to avoid the silver light. At the same time, a cyan figure passed by in front of him, and with a "clang", he raised his hand and knocked it out of the palace maid's hand.
dagger, and pushed her out.
"Are you okay?" Mu Jingnan directly pulled Yun Yan up, put him in his arms, and asked in a low voice, with a heavy look in his deep eyes.
Shaking her head slightly, Yun Yan smiled at him and said, "It's okay!" Fortunately, the tea tray fell to the ground and brought her back to her thoughts, but looking at the woman with burn marks on her face below, and that
The extremely sharp dagger fell to the ground, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. She wanted to kill her? Why? She didn't remember that she knew her.
"Hui'er, what are you doing!" Mu Xuening stood up and shouted at the palace maid below who was lying on the ground.
The palace maid who fell on the ground below looked at Yun Yan with resentment, gritted her teeth and said: "She, how can she marry the Sixth Prince? How can she deserve to marry the Sixth Prince? She is Li Suyu's daughter. I can't watch her ruin her life."
I want to kill the Sixth Prince. I am doing all this for the benefit of the Sixth Prince."
"You..." Mu Xuening stared at Hui'er, her expression a little anxious, "Yan'er is Yan'er, Suyu is Suyu, why don't you listen to my advice."
Hui'er sneered and looked at Yun Yan, "That's easy to say, but the culprit who killed the young lady was Li Suyu. How can a daughter born from such a mother be a good thing?" As she said that, she looked at Mu Jingnan,
He begged, "Sixth Prince, please don't be blinded by this woman. This kind of woman is unacceptable."
Mu Jingnan had a cold face, glanced at Hui'er, and said indifferently: "Whenever I need you to comment on my actions, I think that you have served my mother and concubine, so I won't let you care about it this time.
You will never appear in front of us again."
"Sixth Prince, how could you..." Hui'er was shocked. She didn't expect that Mu Jingnan would say this. It was hard to accept it for a moment, and she looked at Yunyan with an even fiercer look. It was she who confused the Sixth Prince and made him
He forgot about hatred.
Feeling the overwhelming hatred of the person below, Yun Yan turned her head and glanced at the person beside her. His eyebrows were furrowed, and the casualness on his face had long since disappeared. Her heart sank slightly. It happened again that year.
, everyone is telling her about the events of the past, grudges, hatreds, the previous generation and the next generation, many of them are intertwined. These days, she is really tired of guessing about the events of the past.
"Can you tell me what happened that year? How did my mother betray Concubine Yu and harm Mu Jingnan? Although I know roughly, I hope to explain this matter clearly today and be a
It's over, I don't want that past to become an obstacle between me and Mu Jingnan." Yun Yan broke away from Mu Jingnan's arms, took a few steps forward, looked at the person who fell on the ground, and faintly
Voice.
Mu Jingnan took a step forward, preparing to hold Yun Yan.
As if aware of Mu Jingnan's actions, Yun Yan raised his eyes and said firmly: "Don't stop it, Mu Jingnan, I know you never want me to face this, but I'm not as fragile as you think.
Those who know, will eventually know.”
After hearing this, Mu Jingnan took back his hand, glanced at Hui'er on the ground, frowned slightly, and turned his head to look away.
When Hui'er heard this, she sneered and looked at Yun Yan bitterly, "Since you want to know, well, then I will tell you, let me tell you, how shameless your mother was back then! It was in vain that the young lady sent her to
Be good sisters.”
"No, let me tell you!" Mu Xuening, who was standing silently at the side, suddenly spoke. She looked at Yun Yan sadly and whispered, "Yan'er, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you, and I'm even more sorry for Su.
Jade."
Yun Yan was slightly surprised and didn't understand the meaning of Mu Xuening's words.
Mu Xuening walked downstairs, glanced outside, slowly closed her eyes, and said in a distant voice: "Wrong, in fact, they are all wrong. If I continue to hide it now, I'm afraid I will make a big mistake!"
