After Dugu Liancheng gave the order, he deliberately looked at Mu Ci.
Should this woman face his existence? She should know that each of the three thousand beauties in the harem is more considerate than she is. What she has to do is to please him, the master of the world.
It's a pity that Mu Ci reacted a little slowly at first, but later showed no expression at all.
After An Rong heard the emperor's order, it took her a long time to react. She knelt down in front of the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I have been unwell these past few days and cannot sleep with you. I hope you will forgive me!"
As soon as she said this, Mu Ci and Dugu Liancheng were stunned. Neither of them thought that An Rong was so bold that she dared to refuse to sleep with her.
As the emperor, Dugu Liancheng, all the women in the harem eagerly moved towards him, hoping to gain a sense of presence. Only An Rong dared to refuse to sleep in front of Mu Ci. Where would he put his face next to Mu Ci?
Mu Ci naturally knew that Dugu Liancheng was concerned with saving face. Before he got angry, she said first, "Since An Mei is not feeling well, she can only serve the emperor another day. The emperor has always been sympathetic to beauty, so he should not embarrass An Mei."
She was stepping down the steps of Dugu Liancheng to honor him.
An Rong dared to refuse Dugu Liancheng's request to sleep with her. Regardless of whether she was sincere or not, her courage was good.
"I can't bear to embarrass An Mei. Among all the concubines in the harem, An Mei has the most pleasing temperament to me. The days are long and I am not in a hurry." Dugu Liancheng walked down the steps.
At that moment when the atmosphere was strange, Zheng De came in and said to Mu Ci: "Your Majesty, Lieutenant Mu Du wants to see you!"
"Let brother come in." When Mu Ci heard that Mu Tong was coming, a bright smile immediately broke out on his face.
Dugu Liancheng felt uncomfortable after seeing it.
Mu Ci always had a straight face when facing him, as if someone owed her something. As soon as Mu Tong came, Mu Ci immediately changed his face.
Mu Tong did not expect that Dugu Liancheng was also there, "I will finally meet the Queen Mother and the Emperor!"
"There are no outsiders here. Brother, no courtesy." Mu Ci immediately went to Mu Tong, "I was in a hurry back to the palace that day and didn't have time to say anything to my brother. Don't blame me."
Mu Tong touched her head, and when he touched Mu Ci's hair, he received a strange look from the emperor.
He quickly retracted his hand, remembering that this was the most noble Queen Mother in the world, and he could not go beyond the rules.
"Brother, will you go back to the border after celebrating the New Year? It's not long before the New Year." Mu Ci didn't notice that detail and said to Mu Tong directly.
Mu Tong entered the palace today because he wanted to say goodbye to Mu Ci. When he heard Mu Ci's suggestion, he hesitated for a moment.
"That's it. It's settled. My brother has been back for so long, so he can't leave the capital so soon." Mu Ci saw Mu Tong's hesitation and added hurriedly.
Mu Tong couldn't bear to see her disappointed eyes, but finally agreed: "I will obey the Queen Mother's decree!"
Mu Ci had no time to pay attention to Dugu Liancheng and An Rong, "The Ai family wants to chat with my brother about family matters, and we will talk to An Meiren another day."
An Rong resigned and left Weiyang Palace.
When Dugu Liancheng left, he asked Mu Tong to leave the palace and go to Yanfu Palace, saying that he had something to discuss with Mu Tong.
As soon as the outsiders left, Mu Ci immediately ordered Yingchun to bring snacks.
When Mu Tong saw her happy, he was also happy.
After chatting, Mu Ci got to the point without leaving any trace: "My brother has reached the age of marrying a wife and having children, so he has to settle down. My suggestion is that he should retire from the battlefield..."
