Chapter 197: The Emperor's Hypocrisy

With Yi Muxue's status, it is certainly not easy to get into the lower ranks.

It's just that she understands Dugu Liancheng's temperament. He has always done whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

Muzhi wants Muxue to become the queen, and Dugu Liancheng can fulfill the wishes of Muxue and Muzhi. Only in this way can Muzhi become more arrogant and arrogant...

"What suggestions does the Queen Mother have after reading this?" Dugu Liancheng's voice awakened Mu Ci's thoughts.

Mu Ci suppressed his turbulent emotions, and the expression on his face did not change: "This is a family matter in the emperor's harem, and the Ai family seems to have no room to speak."

She was alerted that something was wrong. According to the emperor's temper, it was unlikely that he would discuss this matter with her, and it was even less likely that he would respect her as the queen mother.

Her intuition told her that the emperor was digging a hole for her again.

If she acted too obviously, the emperor would only notice her weakness, and she would have to guard against it.

So no matter how much she cares, she can't show it on her face.

"What did the Queen Mother say? In the entire harem, I am the closest to the Queen Mother. Of course, the Queen Mother should be in charge of my harem affairs. Among all the concubines in the harem, the one I like most is Muxue——"

"Emperor Cai also saw it just now. Mu Mei people are good at disguise. Doesn't the emperor think that the title 'Pure' used on Mu Mei people is not worthy of the name?" Mu Ci couldn't help but tell the truth.

"I originally felt that although Mu Meiren was in line with my wishes, she was a little too simple-minded and not suitable for a harem. Today I saw another side of Mu Meiren, and I felt relieved. A place like the harem naturally has some problems.

Only through means can we gain a foothold." Dugu Liancheng's voice became gentler when he mentioned Muxue.

Mu Cixin said that Dugu Liancheng was not a romantic type. Others did not know what the emperor was thinking, but she knew that the reason why Mu Xue fell in the emperor's eyes was definitely not because of Mu Xue's character or beauty.

Mu Xue was able to rise in status so quickly simply because Mu Zhi now placed all his hopes on Mu Xue.

Perhaps even Muxue himself would think that the emperor's tenderness and affection were true?

She had also experienced Dugu Liancheng's hypocrisy in her previous life. However, in this life, Dugu Liancheng's gentle and affectionate partner was replaced by Mu Xue.

It seems that her sudden remarriage to the late emperor really disrupted Dugu Liancheng's plan.

After thinking about it like this, she suddenly realized that Mu Xue's words were right. She was the one who gave Mu Xue the chance to be promoted to concubine, and she was the one who made Dugu Liancheng change his plan.

Dugu Liancheng planned to let Mu Xue replace Mu Ci. Even if Mu Xue was just a concubine, he would force Mu Xue to take the back seat.

"What does the Queen Mother think?" Dugu Liancheng saw that Mu Ci was distracted and his voice became louder.

Mu Ci wanted to say no, but her opinion was not important. Of course, Dugu Liancheng would not really ask for her opinion, he would just ask her in the ward.

As for why Dugu Liancheng discussed with her so solemnly, it was definitely not because he respected her.

"As long as the emperor likes it." Mu Ci closed the list.

"Since the Queen Mother has no objection, the matter has been decided. I respect the Queen Mother's wishes."

Dugu Liancheng's words made Mu Ci look askance: "Listen to the emperor's wishes. If the Ai family doesn't agree, the emperor won't promote Mu Xue's status?"

She is not that important yet.

Dugu Liancheng waited for so long and finally heard Mu Ci's words: "No. The Queen Mother is just the Queen Mother, not one of my people. If she is my person, I should adopt the Queen Mother's opinion."
