Dugu Liancheng pondered for a long time before replying: "I don't know why I have reached this point."
Every time he saw Mu Ci, he would get angry, so that he kept making mistakes again and again, and the current trend was completely out of his control.
Dugu Liancheng had never seen Dugu Liancheng like this before.
The emperor's brother has always been able to deal with things clearly and has always focused on the overall situation, but the confused look on the emperor's brother's face now sounded the alarm for him.
"Brother Huang is not..." He wanted to ask if Brother Huang was in love with Mu Ci.
But he didn't dare to ask this question. Even if he asked, Brother Yi Huang would deny it outright.
He would rather that wasn't the case.
There are so many outstanding women in the world. The emperor's brother can like any one, but not Mu Ci, otherwise the emperor's brother will be caught between the Mu family and Mu Ci in the future and will be torn between the two.
Mu Zhi must be removed, so the emperor's brother must not fall in love with Mu Ci.
The royal brother will never do anything stupid.
Dugu Liancheng didn't notice anything strange about Dugu Lianqi, so he directly ordered: "You have to watch over there in the prison."
"Yes!" Dugu Lianqi accepted the order and left Yanfu Palace.
Li Yu stopped in front of the withered ginkgo tree and asked Li Yu, "Brother, don't you think this ginkgo tree is an eyesore?"
Li Yu was stunned, remembering that the emperor had mentioned cutting down the ginkgo several times, but every time he spoke, he regretted it.
"Brother, don't you want to chop it down?" Dugu Lianqi saw something strange in Li Yu's expression.
Li Yu lowered his head, "I don't dare to guess the emperor's thoughts."
Dugu Lianqi snorted softly, walked a few steps, and suddenly said without warning: "Brother Huang has favored Mu Ci!"
A strange color flashed in Li Yu's eyes, and Dugu Lianqi saw it clearly.
He was just guessing, but looking at Li Yu's expression, he knew he was right.
As expected, the relationship between the emperor's brother and Mu Ci was unusual.
The next day, Dugu Lianqi went to Tianlao again.
He played two games of chess with Mu Ci, and each time he lost so cleanly that he surrendered.
But seeing that Mu Ci had won the chess game, her expression remained calm. She had remained calm since being imprisoned in the prison.
At her age, she has such magnanimity, which is impressive.
"Just say what you want to say." Mu Ci looked at Dugu Lianqi, who had been silent for a long time.
Today's King Ling'an was different. As soon as he came in, she saw something was wrong.
"I remember that you used to admire Brother Huang, but now? Do you still care about Brother Huang?" Dugu Lianqi expressed the question in his heart.
He still remembered the innocent and lively Mu Ci in the past. Every time he saw the emperor's brother, there would be an unconcealable light in his eyes. Such strong and pure feelings made him foresee the scene of Mu Ci gradually withering after entering the palace.
Because the man Mu Ci fell in love with was the emperor's brother, the most powerful person in the imperial family who was least likely to fall in love with Mu Ci.
What's funny is that he misjudged Mu Ci and temporarily remarried the late emperor.
It is unclear whether Mu Ci remarried after finally seeing the impossibility of her relationship with the emperor, or whether she wanted to attract the emperor's attention in this way.
Mu Ci did not expect that Dugu Lianqi would ask such a question.
She thought that many things had changed, and she didn't even remember what Mu Ci was like who loved Dugu Liancheng.
"Is this question difficult to answer?" Seeing that Mu Ci did not answer, Dugu Lianqi approached Mu Ci, trying to figure out the answer from her expression.
However, his expressions did not change at all, and he was not likely to feel guilty.
