The next morning, Mu Xue set off early and went to Yong'an Palace to pay his respects to Mu Ci.
Unexpectedly, I met Shen Manyun by chance on the way.
Lord Shen Manyun persuaded her to talk to her: "Since that day when I met King Zhou and the Queen Mother by the Xihua River, the Emperor no longer likes to come to the harem. I finally turned over the cards yesterday, and it turned out that Anmei came out on top. My sister. Tell me, what is so unique about An Meiren? In terms of beauty, she is not as good as the other sisters in the harem. In terms of temperament, she cannot be said to be outstanding. At most, she is a bit like the Queen Mother. It is not for this reason that the emperor ordered An Meiren to serve. "Bed."
Muxue didn't know what her intention was when she said this, so she wisely ignored it.
Shen Manyun seemed to see that she was unwilling to talk, so he walked ahead of her and entered Yong'an Palace first.
After that, all the concubines came to Yong'an Palace one after another, and there was another lively scene.
Most people were sarcastic and sarcastic towards An Rong. The general idea was that An Rong was different from what she appeared to be. She didn't seem to be favored by others, but she was actually very capable.
Mu Xue couldn't help but pay more attention to An Rong. Looking horizontally and vertically, she couldn't see anything special about An Rong compared with the people here. If she really wanted to say that she was a bit special, it was just that she was calmer. This trait A bit similar to Mu Ci.
The thought passed away in a flash, and she couldn't help but look at Mu Ci twice.
After that, she looked back at An Rong, and the more she looked, the more frightened she felt.
Why didn't she notice it before?
Yao Feier's appearance is somewhat similar to Mu Ci, but the person closest to Mu Ci in terms of temperament is An Rong.
She must have been overthinking it. The emperor could not possibly have any thoughts about Mu Ci.
She suddenly remembered what Shen Manyun said to her before entering Yong'an Palace, and at this moment she finally understood the deep meaning of Shen Manyun's words.
If the emperor really has strange feelings for Mu Ci...
"The fact that An Mei is favored is because of the Queen Mother's good training. With so many people present, An Mei is the only one who has the magnanimity of the Queen Mother." Mu Xue continued her words, curling her lips with a hint of a smile.
"What Sister Zhaorong said, people who don't know would think that the Emperor is talking to the Queen Mother..." Zhao Ling's voice faded away, as if she knew she had said something wrong, and she looked embarrassed: "I made a mistake, the Queen Mother is in great numbers, don't I am as familiar as a concubine."
Recently, Mu Ci's outfits are no longer plain as before. Although they are not flashy, as long as they dress up a little, they can overwhelm all the beauties present.
Even she can't compare to Mu Ci's good looks.
"The harem requires caution in words and deeds. Zhao Jieyu has just entered the palace and has a lot to learn. The gaffe just now shows that Zhao Jieyu still lacks training." Mu Ci did not raise her head, and her tone was cold. An order: "Zhao Jieyu will be punished to go to the Master of Ceremonies Bureau to learn the rules. After one month, she has learned the rules and will come back to serve the emperor."
As soon as Mu Ci said this, everyone present was stunned.
Zhao Ling was one of the emperor's most beloved concubines. Mu Ci actually gave Zhao Ling such a punishment just because of Zhao Ling's faux pas?
She is not afraid of the emperor's blame.
Not to mention that the other concubines were shocked, Zhao Ling himself did not expect that Mu Ci would dare to punish her.
Her face looked a little ugly, but there was nothing she could do. Who allowed Mu Ci to be in charge of the harem now? Whoever Mu Ci wanted to punish would be in trouble, unless he could persuade the emperor to make the decision.
Right now, she could only swallow this breath.
"Yes, thank you, Queen Mother, for your kindness." Zhao Ling lowered his eyelids and suppressed the strange color in his eyes.
After dealing with Zhao Ling, Mu Ci fixed his gaze on Mu Xue's face.
Mu Xue's heart trembled. She didn't dare to look directly at Mu Ci, for fear that Mu Ci would stab him.
Last time at the Xihua River, she made Mu Ci suffer a lot, but Mu Ci didn't say anything. She was a little complacent for a while. But she never thought about whether Mu Ci would settle the scores after the fall.
The fact is, whatever you fear will come to you.
Mu Ci's eyes turned around and returned to Mu Xue.
With a faint smile on her face, her red lips slightly parted: "What the Ai family hates the most is comparing others to the Ai family. Chun Zhaorong, tell me, how are the Ai family and the Anmei people similar?
"
Muxue complained endlessly and hurriedly responded: "I have made a mistake. Your Majesty is in great numbers. Don't argue with me like this."
"How can you serve the emperor if your eyesight is so bad? In order to prevent you from making a big mistake in front of the emperor, the Ai family has temporarily withdrawn your green card. When your eyesight improves, it will not be too late to serve you again."
As soon as Mu Ci said this, everyone looked at Muxue with sympathetic eyes.
Sure enough, it's not that I don't want to retaliate, it's that the time has not come yet.
After Mu Xue entered the palace, she was in the limelight for a while. When Mu Ci saw this scene, there was no reason not to take action.
No, retribution comes so quickly.
In addition, Mu Xue was also present when the little prince was poisoned. Everyone felt that Mu Xue's appearance in the Imperial Garden was not a coincidence and that Geng was framed by Mu Xue.
Now that Geng was released, how could Mu Ci let Muxue go?
What do women in the harem fear most? Of course, losing their favor.
Mu Ci's removal of Muxue's green card is tantamount to declaring that Muxue has no chance to sleep with her. The situation in the harem is ever-changing, and the most important thing is beauty.
You can't sleep with me, but other beauties can take advantage of you.
By the time the emperor remembers you again, other beauties may have already conceived dragon heirs, and the mother is as valuable as the son.
Muxue's face was also as pale as paper. She stood up in a hurry: "The Queen Mother..."
"Chun Zhaorong, the Ai family is also doing this for your own good. If you are grateful, you should thank the Ai family for their kindness!" Mu Ci looked at Mu Xue with a half-smile.
Under Mu Ci's gaze, Mu Xue finally lowered her head: "I thank you for your kindness!"
After that, Mu Ci said some more polite words, and then everyone left Yong'an Palace one by one.
As soon as Mu Xue walked out of Yong'an Palace, many people immediately gathered around to "congratulate" her. Mu Xue had received a lot of favors in the past few days, and everyone had long resented this.
Now that we finally have the opportunity to add insult to injury, who wouldn’t want to step forward and step on it?
Mu Xue, who was stimulated by everyone's words, could only swallow her grievances. When she was about to leave, Shen Manyun walked up to her and sighed softly: "The Queen Mother is too stingy. She actually took away my sister's green card.
This is related to my sister’s honor and favor. Yes, what are your plans for my sister? You can’t end up like this and suffer the loss of being dumb, right?”
Mu Xue naturally knew that Shen Manyun was secretly messing with her again. Shen Manyun's intention was obvious, but he just wanted her to confront Mu Ci, so that Shen Manyun could take advantage of her.
"My sister is surprised by what she said. If the emperor has a sister in his heart, even if the green card is removed, the sister's favor will not be reduced. The most feared thing in the harem is not getting the emperor's favor. Otherwise, even if the green card is not removed, the emperor's favor will not be reduced.
Green head card, there is still no chance to sleep with you. Sister, is this right?" Mu Xue replied to Shen Manyun quietly.
The smile on Shen Manyun's face was a bit unbearable.
Muxue said both inside and outside her words that she was not favored by the emperor, so he dared to squeeze her like this.
