Dugu Liancheng said, trying to find traces of shyness on Mu Ci's face.
Unfortunately, this woman's expression was the same as usual, and she didn't show any shyness at all.
He should have known a long time ago that this woman is a monster, not only cold-blooded, but also without the so-called emotions and desires. It would be impossible for her to show her heart to him.
I can’t explain why I’m disappointed, but I’m definitely not happy.
"Why don't you deny it?" Dugu Liancheng pinched Mu Ci's face, his eyes finally fixed on Mu Ci's abdomen.
After not giving the soup last time, Mu Ci didn't even drink the soup when he went to bed.
I don’t know if her belly is full of energy, but if she accidentally gets pregnant...
"There is nothing to deny." Mu Ci did not understand the emperor's bad taste.
She turned over and fell asleep quickly.
Of course she didn't know, Dugu Liancheng stared at her stomach for a long time.
Two days later, it will be Shen Manyun's birthday.
Because there have been a lot of things going on in the harem recently and the atmosphere has become a bit depressing, Shen Manyun deliberately made the birthday party lively and lively.
Yin Yue Pavilion welcomed many guests early in the morning. They were giving gifts and joking. Even Qing Le, who seldom walked around on weekdays, showed up, but he didn't bring the little prince with him.
While it was busy, Zhao Ling arrived.
She was wearing a dark-coloured embroidered double-breasted dress. Perhaps because of her figure, she looked rounder than before, less enchanting and more mature. As soon as she arrived, she became the most popular person in the room. The most beautiful scene among the birds and birds.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and Mu Ci appeared later.
Compared to Zhao Ling's relatively dull clothes, she wore a pink gradient palace dress. As soon as she appeared, she seemed to have brought spring to the room. Her face was originally plain, but it became a little more charming. With such an attitude, he easily outshone the beautiful Zhao Ling.
Mu Ci appeared and naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
After everyone saw the gift, they expressed their sincere wishes to welcome the spring and offered birthday gifts. Hui Xin stepped forward to receive them.
"The Queen Mother's visit to the Yin Yue Pavilion makes the Yin Yue Pavilion shine. It is truly an honor for me." Shen Manyun stepped forward in person and led Mu Ci to sit down at the front seat.
Mu Ci looked around at everyone present, and finally fixed his gaze on Zhao Ling.
She asked with concern: "How is Zhao Jieyu?"
Recently, Dugu Liancheng seems to want an imperial heir very much, so Zhao Ling needs to take good care of this baby.
"Thank you for your concern, my concubine. Everything is fine." Zhao Ling responded with a soft smile.
Mu Ci felt relieved now: "The emperor values your pregnancy very much and must protect it well."
As soon as Mu Ci said this, everyone present had different thoughts.
It didn't matter that they couldn't see the emperor on weekdays, but it happened that the emperor still favored other women, and Zhao Ling was the luckiest one among them.
Now they are watching Zhao Ling's belly getting bigger day by day, but they can't do anything. This is the most irritating thing.
Since the case of the poisoning of the little prince, how many pairs of eyes have been watching the fate of Yun Xi and Lu Mei, repeatedly warning them to be cautious, otherwise they will end up like Yun Xi.
"I can spare it," Zhao Ling replied softly.
Just in the lively moment, the rightful owner that everyone had been waiting for finally arrived.
Dugu Liancheng changed out of his dragon robe and wore a deep dark coat with wide sleeves and a curved train. He had handsome features and a windy walk. He was suave and handsome.
There were many concubines present who fell in love with Dugu Liancheng after seeing his face after entering the palace. However, this man was so aloof that it was rare to see him every day.
Now that we have finally met you, he has not even spared you a glance.
After everyone saw the ceremony, Shen Manyun showed a chivalrous smile: "The Emperor and Sister Zhao really have a good understanding of each other. Both of them are wearing dark colors. Only the Emperor and Sister Zhao can wear dark colors like this. So pretty.”
After Shen Manyun's reminder, everyone realized that it was indeed a coincidence.
When Zhao Ling saw everyone looking at her, her face was filled with red clouds, and she glanced at the emperor shyly: "I, I didn't know that I would be in conflict with the emperor. I hope the emperor will forgive me."
Dugu Liancheng waved his sleeves and drew a sexy curve on his thin lips: "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter, there's no need to be formal."
"Otherwise, among so many sisters, only Sister Zhao is pregnant with the dragon heir. Of course it is because she and the emperor are in love." Shen Manyun added with a smile.
The others had different expressions after hearing her words.
After hearing this, the blush on Zhao Ling's face became darker. She couldn't help but quietly looked in the direction of Lord Long Live, and saw him looking at her with a smile. For a moment, her heart was pounding.
Everyone saw the scene where the emperor and Zhao Jieyu were flirting back and forth, some were disdainful and some were jealous.
Shen Manyun was more concerned about Mu Ci's reaction.
After all, the relationship between Mu Ci and the emperor was extraordinary. Seeing the emperor and Zhao Jieyu loving each other so lovingly, wouldn't Mu Ci feel jealous?
Mu Ci seemed to feel Shen Manyun's eyes fixed on her face. She raised her eyes and met Shen Manyun's eyes.
"Shen Zhaoyi has something to say?" Mu Ci raised her pink lips slightly.
"I have behaved inappropriately. It's because the Queen Mother is so beautiful that I can't take my eyes away." Shen Manyun sang a hymn to Mu Ci.
Mu Ci smiled: "Shen Zhaoyi is still too ignorant. Who is not beautiful here?"
What she said was also very rude.
Don't think she can't see that Shen Manyun deliberately wants to make her feel uncomfortable.
Did Shen Manyun think that she would care about these concubines that Dugu Liancheng dotes on?
After all, Shen Manyun was different from the past. She lowered her eyes and replied: "What the empress said is that I have little knowledge, so I should learn more from the empress in the future."
Everyone sat and chatted for a while before Shen Manyun got down to business: "The banquet will start later. I have invited a theater troupe. Please move on and go to Changyin Pavilion together."
In this way, under the leadership of Shen Manyun, everyone moved and headed towards Changyin Pavilion.
When they arrived at Changyin Pavilion, everyone took their seats one by one.
Dugu Liancheng and Mu Ci had the highest status, so of course they occupied the best seats. Of course, the seats next to them were occupied by concubines who held high positions.
The only exception is Zhao Ling. Zhao Ling is pregnant with a dragon heir. Even if her position is not as high as Shen Manyun's, she can still sit closer to Dugu Liancheng, and she happens to be sitting in the empty seat next to Mu Ci.
After everyone was seated, various snacks were served one after another.
When Dugu Liancheng saw that they were all desserts, he immediately pushed them towards Mu Ci. Mu Ci didn't appreciate it and didn't even look at it.
When Dugu Liancheng saw this detail, he simply picked some more fruits and handed them to Mu Ci, and said, "You can eat these, they have been chilled, it is just right to relieve the heat."
Mu Ci shook his head, still not interested.
Dugu Liancheng was not a patient person to begin with. Seeing that Mu Ci didn't buy it, his face darkened: "Queen Mother, do you want me to feed you myself?"
