Xin Ruyi smiled slightly and nodded heavily. She really felt that Mu Rufeng could support her and bring her enough security.
When she was with him, she felt like she was a girl again, and understood that she could also be pampered and loved by others.
"Let's go."
Mu Rufeng took her hand and walked towards Qinzheng Hall.
Because it was the New Year's Day, all the ministers had a rest, but as the king of a country, Yuan Hao had political affairs to deal with every day. At this time, he was reviewing the memorial in Qinzheng Hall.
When the eunuch came to report that it was Mu Rufeng who brought his wife to thank him, he remembered that yesterday he had named Mu Rufeng's wife a first-class wife.
Yuan Hao put down the ink pen in his hand and said to the eunuch who was delivering the message: "Let them come in."
Not long after, the eunuch led Mu Rufeng and Xin Ruyi into the Qinzheng Hall. They both knelt down and kowtowed in the hall. Yuan Hao's figure could be vaguely seen through a gauze curtain.
"Mu Aiqing, please get up quickly."
Yuan Hao spared their courtesy, and then asked the palace maid to lift the gauze curtain, and saw Xin Ruyi slowly stand up. She was as handsome as a willow tree, standing next to Mu Rufeng with her eyes slightly lowered.
Even though he had seen countless beauties, Yuan Hao was still amazed by Xin Ruyi's figure and appearance when he first saw her. How could this figure and appearance look like a woman?
He stared at Xin Ruyi in a daze for a moment.
Although Xin Ruyi lowered her eyes, her keen intuition still noticed that a hot gaze fell on her, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
But since His Majesty was the only one in the palace, she must have thought wrong.
She lowered her head, her whole body tense.
But Yuan Hao is the emperor after all. When Mu Rufeng noticed it, he had already looked away and said with a smile: "Mu Aiqing is so lucky. My wife is so beautiful. It's no wonder Mu Aiqing doesn't look down on others."
Mu Rufeng bowed and said, "Your Majesty is joking."
Yuan Hao stood up and walked towards them: "Mu Aiqing, don't be humble. The Queen knows that Madam is going to enter the palace today and has been waiting for her for a long time. It just so happens that I want to talk to you about the situation in the South today, so I asked Madam to go first.
Would you like to sit down with the queen?"
Mu Rufeng frowned and said, "My wife is from a rural background. If she doesn't know etiquette, she might offend the empress. Why don't we wait until she learns etiquette before going to see the empress?"
"Why, Mu Aiqing can't bear to leave his wife?"
Although Yuan Hao's tone was slightly joking, he was clearly unhappy.
Mu Rufeng was worried about Xin Ruyi, because the eldest princess must be with the Queen. Without him protecting the crazy woman, how could she embarrass Ruyi?
He frowned and was about to resist, but unexpectedly Xin Ruyi stood up and said: "I have admired the Queen for a long time, and now that I have the opportunity to meet her, I am really happy."
"good!"
Yuan Hao laughed loudly, and then ordered the eunuch to send Xin Ruyi to the empress.
Mu Rufeng knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion. He frowned and looked at Xin Ruyi, and saw her giving him a reassuring look. After all, as his wife, it would be normal for him to deal with palace concubines in the future.
