After Zheng Jieyu watched the excitement for a while, she saw Mu Ci drinking tea leisurely, and felt that this scene was particularly annoying. In her opinion, they were all actors, while Mu Ci was just a spectator.
The more leisurely Mu Ci was, the angrier she became. She wished she could cause more troubles and make Mu Ci panic.
"I heard that the eldest prince has been living in Yong'an Palace for some time, and the empress has no plans to return the eldest prince to the virtuous concubine. Doesn't the empress want to take advantage of the opportunity to occupy the eldest prince and never return the eldest prince to the virtuous concubine?
Empress, right?"
As soon as Zheng Jieyu said this, everyone looked at Mu Ci with the mood of watching a good show, wondering if Mu Ci was afraid of rumors.
Mu Ci calmly took a sip of tea and then said: "You also said that I have a good personal relationship with Concubine Xian. In that case, what are you anxious about? Nian'er had a great time in Yong'an Palace, and Yu'er also liked Nian'er. If
Yes, I hope that Nian'er will spend more time with Yu'er. I asked Nian'er about her intention two days ago, and Nian'er also wants to stay in Yong'an Palace for a longer period of time, so I will let Nian'er go."
After Mu Ci finished speaking, he looked at Concubine He Xian: "What does Concubine Xian mean?"
There was nothing wrong with Concubine He Xian's expression, but she knew that Concubine Xian was definitely not in a good mood at the moment.
Who told Concubine He Xian to be a scheming person and like to pretend to be nice? Now, no matter how unhappy Concubine Xian is, she cannot confront her in front of everyone.
Just as Mu Ci expected, Concubine He Xian didn't change her expression and replied in a low voice: "Since Nian'er likes it, let's stay in Yong'an Palace for a while and wait until Nian'er has had enough fun."
Mu Ci smiled when he heard this: "You are good at everything, but you are too indulgent with this child. I am much stricter than you, and I will never show mercy when I need to scold you."
Concubine He Xian smiled with her, but she was in a different state of mind.
The two of them were doing Tai Chi, but in the eyes of others, their friendship was so good that they couldn't tell the difference between you and me.
Zheng Jieyu, who wanted to stir up trouble, looked gloomy when she saw this, but she couldn't get angry.
When everyone left Yong'an Palace, they all commented on how cunning and hypocritical Mu Ci was, and how he was disliked by others.
"Concubine He Xian is also stupid. She didn't know that the queen wanted to monopolize the eldest prince, so she actually allowed the eldest prince to stay in Yong'an Palace. In my opinion, the eldest prince might be monopolized by the queen from now on." Wan Meiren spoke loudly on purpose.
, just want Concubine He Xian to hear.
Concubine He Xian did hear it, but she just kept her ears open, got on the chariot as if nothing had happened, and walked away under the attention of everyone.
After returning to Chuxiu Palace, Concubine He Xian took a sip of tea and finally suppressed the unknown fire in her heart.
"What do you think?" Concubine He Xian asked Hu Hu, who stood silently.
Amber remembered Mu Ci's previous words about wanting to keep His Highness's smiling face, "Perhaps the Queen really likes His Highness. His Highness is smart and filial, and he is very close to the Crown Prince. It is reasonable for the Queen to want to keep His Highness a little longer.
among.”
"I feel that the Queen deliberately did not return Nian'er!" Concubine He Xian's face darkened.
At first she thought that Mu Ci would bring Dugu Nian back in a few days. As time passed, she became more and more uneasy. It was not until Zheng Jieyu mentioned this today that she was finally sure that Mu Ci did not want to bring Nian'er back.
she.
"Is your Majesty perhaps overthinking?" Amber was also unsure.
Mu Ci didn't look like a sinister person. He couldn't be afraid that the eldest prince would block the crown prince's future in the future, so Mu Ci deliberately didn't return the eldest prince to the wise concubine.
"Could it be that the An family released rumors that I had poisoned the crown prince last time, so the queen became suspicious of me, and that's why she suddenly left Nian'er?" Concubine He Xian's expression was a little solemn.
If this is the case, it will be troublesome.
"Isn't it possible? Concubine Hui didn't investigate this matter specially and found out no problem, thus indirectly clearing the queen's innocence. How could the queen doubt the queen?" Amber felt that her master thought too much.
The last time Concubine Hui took over the case of the crown prince's poisoning, she conducted a careful investigation in Chuxiu Palace and found nothing wrong.
"I can't figure out the Queen's intention. To avoid long nights and dreams, Dugu Lianyun must be taken away from Mei Pavilion as soon as possible. Only in this way can Mu Yao be checked and balanced and Mu Yao can do things for me." Concubine He Xian felt that it was better.
We must fight quickly and make this matter happen as soon as possible.
An Rong was sent to the North Palace, and Yuzhi also left the palace. The fewer people in the palace, the easier it would be for her to be exposed.
If she wants to do anything from now on, Mu Ci will know immediately. This is not a good sign.
"Are we really going to take action against that person from Mei Pavilion? We don't have enough preparation time. I'm afraid of acting hastily. If things don't work out, I might scare the snake." Amber expressed her thoughts.
"I'm afraid that something unexpected will happen if we wait any longer. I still feel that this matter should be acted upon as soon as possible. If the queen discovers the problem on my side, it will be even more important to take action before she has time to react, so as to catch her off guard.
Concubine He Xian said seriously.
Amber wanted to persuade her again, but Concubine He Xian was stubborn and had no choice but to give up and act in advance.
Yong'an Palace.
Mu Ci was teasing the two little princes, and Dugu Nian left school. Seeing the cute looks of the two brothers, he immediately ran over to give them a kiss and a hug.
Mu Ci pulled him and asked him about his homework before getting down to business: "Empress Mother wants to keep you in Yong'an Palace for a longer period of time and spend more time with Yu'er and Jing'er. I have already told your mother and concubine about this.
Is this kid willing?"
"Of course I do. I'd rather stay here longer." Dugu Nian deserved to be happy.
Seeing him like this, Mu Ci felt relieved.
After grandma took Dugu Nian away, Mu Ci told Sizhu: "You must keep an eye on Nian'er and don't let Concubine Xian have the opportunity to take Nian'er away."
Concubine He Xian is a very well-planned person, and she seems a little anxious today, fearing that her leaving Nian'er will make Concubine He Xian plan ahead.
While she was meditating, Yingchun came in and said to her: "The emperor is outside. Do you want to see the emperor?"
It was just a routine matter and she was asking casually. She thought that the empress would not see the emperor easily.
Unexpectedly, the empress hesitated for a moment and then ordered: "Please come in, Your Majesty."
Now was not the time to lose her temper with Dugu Liancheng. She also wanted to ask Dugu Liancheng what happened to Concubine He Xian in her previous life.
Dugu Liancheng stood outside Yong'an Palace for a moment. Just as he was about to leave, he saw Sizhu coming to invite him in, which surprised him.
After calming down, he entered Yong'an Palace.
"Sit down." Mu Ci made Dugu Liancheng a cup of tea, his attitude a little distant.
Dugu Liancheng didn't know what to say.
He took a sip of tea silently and then asked: "You let me in, do you have something to say?"
"I want to ask you something. I want to know what happened to Concubine He Xian in her previous life?" Mu Ci went straight to the topic.
