Chapter 166: The New and the Old

Dugu Liancheng's eyebrows grew colder, and he suddenly felt that An Rong's face was very annoying.

An Rong didn't seem to notice the emperor's emotional change, and said to herself: "Although the truth may not sound good, it is also the truth..."

Before she finished speaking, Dugu Liancheng suddenly stood up and walked away.

Seeing this scene, Zhitao went to An Rong and said, "Master, why are you doing this?"

Knowing that the emperor didn't like to hear this, the master kept talking, which angered the emperor now. It will be even more difficult to get the emperor's favor in the future.

"What I said is all true. It's the Emperor's business if he doesn't like to hear it, but I still want to say it." After An Rong finished speaking, she went to do her business.

After this battle, Mu Ci rarely left Yong'an Palace.

One is that the weather is too cold, and the other is that I don’t want to see Dugu Liancheng again.

She also found it incredible that she could meet Dugu Liancheng whenever she went out for a walk, so she simply did not leave the palace.

Even so, the days still passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the new year was here.

Starting from the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, officials take a break one after another to prepare for the New Year.

It was lively outside the palace, and it was no exception inside the palace.

No matter where you go to celebrate the Spring Festival, you are filled with the joy of the New Year. Only in Yong'an Palace, the palace people are lazy and the empress does not discipline them, so there is no New Year atmosphere at all.

According to your wishes, I will not attend the New Year’s Eve banquet even if it is New Year’s Eve.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel discouraged.

Later, she was unwilling to give in and tested the empress again. The empress gave her a clear answer. She would not go anywhere on New Year's Eve and everyone in Yong'an Palace would stay in the palace.

Yingchun finally gave up after receiving the answer from the empress herself.

The worst case scenario would be to celebrate the New Year in Yong'an Palace and spend the vigil with the empress. She can endure the loneliness anyway.

But even Mu Ci didn't expect that when she was having New Year's Eve dinner with Yingchun and Sizhu, her brother brought her mother to Yong'an Palace and said that he wanted to celebrate the New Year with her.

The moment Mu Ci saw her relatives for the first time, she could not conceal her inner joy.

"If Yao'er and father were here, we would be a whole family." Mu Tong couldn't help but sigh.

Geng's eyebrows darkened, and his smile gradually disappeared.

Mu Tong didn't notice this detail, but Mu Ci did.

At this moment, my father, an important minister, is at the New Year's Eve banquet?

In previous years, mother would accompany father at the New Year's Eve banquet. My mother is here to accompany her tonight, so the person accompanying father to the New Year's Eve banquet tonight is probably Aunt Lin.

This is why my mother is unhappy.

During the reunion dinner, Mu Ci and Geng each had their own concerns, but Mu Tong was the only one who was focused on eating.

After finishing the meal, Mu Ci took her mother into the inner room and asked, "Mom, tell the truth to my daughter. Has father neglected my mother recently?"

She lived a confused life in her previous life, but after rebirth in this life, she found that the relationship between her father and her mother was not as good as it seemed. In the month before she entered the palace, her father had never set foot in her mother's yard.

On the contrary, my father was very kind to Aunt Lin.

Geng's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he avoided Mu Ci's gaze: "It's nothing, don't think too much about it."

Mu Ci stared blankly at her mother's profile.

Most of her appearance was inherited from her mother. We can know how beautiful her mother was when she was young.

My mother, who originally had a stunning appearance, could not withstand the ravages of time, and now she has become old and faded.

Looking back at Aunt Lin, time has not left any mark on that woman's face, and she is still bright and bright.
