In Mu Ci's heart, she believed that he had harmed Mu Yao, and for Mu Yao's sake, she would find a way to make up for it. As long as there was no more concern in the palace, she would definitely leave the palace without looking back. This was definitely not something he had to worry about.
Biyu didn't know how to answer the call for a moment.
The emperor must know the empress better than she does. Since the emperor has noticed something is wrong, he must take preventive measures as soon as possible.
The emperor is by no means the kind of person who would just sit back and wait for death.
Mu Ci, who was in Yong'an Palace, was still waiting for Dugu Liancheng's second wave of offensive, but after waiting for several days, there was no movement there. Only Biyu came once, bringing many strange tributes, most of which were
fruit.
Biyu left after delivering the tribute, which made her wonder about Dugu Liancheng's thoughts.
Dugu Liancheng will not let her go easily. This person has serious thoughts and has recovered the memories of his previous life. There will definitely be articles, but she can't guess what Dugu Liancheng is thinking now.
"It's strange, why doesn't the emperor come here to hang out recently?" Yingchun muttered in a low voice.
I used to walk around in front of Yong'an Palace every day, even if I didn't come in.
But since Li Yu returned to Yanfu Palace that day, the emperor has not come again. Could it be that he has a new love?
Thinking of this possibility, Yingchun decided to go out and inquire about the situation.
The result of the inquiry is that the emperor has been very honest recently and has never seen any concubines, let alone any new love.
The person Zhu Cairen was from last time was also a member of the King of Zhou. Was it because of this that the emperor had a psychological shadow?
On that night, Li Yu suddenly came to Yong'an Palace to read the emperor's oral edict, and asked Mu Ci to go to Yanfu Palace to sleep there.
After he read out the oral edict, he didn't dare to look at Mu Ci's face.
"I am not feeling well today and cannot stay with you." After a moment of silence, Mu Ci finally spoke.
Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, I will go back to Yanfu Palace to reply."
After saying that, he walked away quickly, as if there was a ghost chasing him behind him.
"Is this palace so scary?" Mu Ci couldn't help laughing.
After Li Yu returned to Yanfu Palace, she immediately reported the matter to Dugu Liancheng: "After the slave delivered the oral instructions, the Queen showed no expression. She only said that she was unwell and could not sleep with her."
After he finished speaking, he carefully watched the emperor's expression.
Fortunately, the emperor seemed to have expected it and didn't seem angry.
"Since the Queen is unwell, Yu'er and Jing'er are not suitable to be raised by the Queen's side. Go to Yong'an Palace and take the two children to Yanfu Palace. If the Queen asks, say that I am afraid that she will spread her illness to them.
She is a sensible person, and I believe she is not willing to let her two children suffer along with her." Dugu Liancheng then issued an order.
Li Yu complained endlessly.
He specializes in doing this kind of hard work, and the Queen will hate him again later.
In this way, Li Yu went to Yong'an Palace to convey Dugu Liancheng's oral instructions.
After listening to this, Mu Ci said: "The two children have gone to bed, and they have not slept with me. There is no such thing as illness."
Li Yu's face fell.
Seeing that Li Yu was still standing in front of him, Mu Ci asked coldly: "Why, is there anything else?"
Li Yu complained endlessly and said slowly: "No more, I will resign."
One is the emperor, and the other is the empress whom the emperor cares about, but he has been tossing back and forth and failed to accomplish anything.
When Li Yu returned to Yanfu Palace, he looked at the emperor eagerly, hoping that the master would stop tormenting his old bones.
Unexpectedly, the emperor then said: "I am not worried about the two children, so just say that I still want the two children to come to Yanfu Palace to rest. When the queen is well and can sleep with her, then she can take the children back."
It’s not too late.”
Li Ping was very upset.
Why should he do this kind of hard work? He ran back and forth, and there were big shots on both sides who couldn't afford to offend.
If he offends the Queen, he will get no good consequences.
Although he offended the emperor, he still had no good fruits to eat. It seemed that whatever he did was wrong.
Li Yu reappeared in Yong'an Palace with a heavy heart. He knelt down in front of Mu Ci and conveyed Dugu Liancheng's will.
"I told you that the two children have already gone to bed. If you insist on taking them away, can you bear it if they are frightened in the middle of the night?!" Mu Ci asked without pretense.
Li Yu hurriedly replied: "I can't bear the wait, so I will go and reply to the emperor."
After saying that, he rolled out of Yong'an Palace.
This time he was not in a hurry to return to Yanfu Palace. He wandered outside for about half an hour before going to Yanfu Palace to report back to his master.
"I have been kneeling for about half an hour. The Empress said that for the sake of the two concubines to avoid being frightened at night, it would be better not to hug them. I think what the Empress said makes sense, so I came here to ask the Emperor for instructions." Li Yu said respectfully.
.
Dugu Liancheng looked at Li Yu coldly and scolded: "Useless thing!"
Li Yu didn't dare to answer the conversation and still knelt down in a dignified manner.
According to him, the emperor is definitely no match for the empress, just because the emperor cares about the empress. When the emperor cares about the empress, he has already lost a lot.
After kneeling for about a quarter of an hour, Dugu Liancheng finally said: "That's all, let the two children live in Yong'an Palace tonight. But early tomorrow morning, they will be taken to Yanfu Palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Yu was not surprised by this result.
As for tomorrow's matter, let's talk about it tomorrow. The emperor may change his mind again.
Li Yu knew that he was finally free tonight.
The next day, Dugu Liancheng went to the morning court as usual and did not mention the two young princes. But Li Yu did not dare to be careless at all, after all, the emperor was always the same.
Around lunch time, Dugu Liancheng called Li Yu to him: "You go to Yong'an Palace and have a look."
"What are you looking at?" Li Yu didn't understand what Dugu Liancheng meant.
Dugu Liancheng gave him a cold look: "Just go and see it, nonsense!"
Li Yu had a grimace on his face, he had no idea what Long Live Lord asked him to see.
When he entered Yong'an Palace and faced Mu Ci's cold face, he immediately understood that the person the emperor asked him to see was the Queen.
"This servant sends my regards to the Queen!" Li Yu looked around: "Where are your two young highnesses?"
Mu Ci thought he was targeting the two children and replied coldly: "They went out to play. If nothing happens to you, you can leave!"
Li Yuqian smiled, responded, and left Yong'an Palace.
When he arrived in front of Dugu Liancheng, Li Yu recited the words he had thought up early: "The Queen seems to be in normal spirits, I think it is because she has not recovered from her illness. The two young highnesses were not able to see her. I heard the Queen say
, Your Highness went out to play and hasn’t returned yet.”
Dugu Liancheng didn't answer, his expression was serious.
Li Yu couldn't guess what his master meant, but for some reason he didn't dare to ask.
After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, Dugu Liancheng finally spoke: "Go and have a look again."
