"The Ai family is going to water the small garden later. The sun is poisonous, but it's just sun protection." After everyone finished asking the questions and calmed down to wait for her answer, Mu Ci replied leisurely.
Meng Cai believed it to be true and said, "That's it. The Queen Mother is also very beautiful dressed like this."
Seeing Meng Cai's flattery, others followed suit and started flattering Mu Ci.
Mu Ci looked at Shen Manyun who was smiling vaguely: "Shen Zhaoyi seems to disagree."
Shen Manyun thought that the current Queen Mother was a thick-skinned person. Others didn't know why Mu Ci was wrapped up so tightly, but she knew that it was simply because the emperor stayed at Yong'an Palace again.
As for what the emperor did to Mu Ci after staying here for the night, she could certainly guess the truth.
Only that good-for-nothing Meng Cairen easily believed Mu Ci's story.
"What are you talking about, the Queen Mother? I just feel that the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother. You shouldn't do rough work like pouring water by yourself. You can just leave it to the servants. Why take the risk of sunburning your delicate skin?" Shen Manyun laughed. He replied lightly.
An Rong was afraid that Shen Manyun would do something stupid, so after hearing Shen Manyun's answer, she felt a little more relieved.
Shen Manyun knew that An Rong was worried about her, so she gave An Rong a comforting smile.
An Rong was worried that her appearance would fall into her eyes. In this entire harem, if she really wanted to find a close confidant, that person would be An Rong.
I am afraid that if the new sister enters the palace, she will turn against her because of the favor, but An Rong will not and will never compete with her for favor.
"You don't understand the joy of being self-reliant and having enough food and clothing." Mu Ci looked at everyone present: "If you have nothing else to do, please leave."
Everyone exited Yong'an Palace one by one.
An Rong let out a sigh of relief as soon as she came out: "Sister, I was scared to death just now. I thought you were going to have a quarrel with the Queen Mother."
"No way, I know the dimensions, so don't worry." Shen Manyun smiled.
"The Queen Mother holds a high position, and now the Emperor is increasingly relying on the Queen Mother. The first two cases were handed over to the Queen Mother. It can be seen that in the Emperor's heart, the Queen Mother occupies a very important position. You must not act rashly or mess with the mother-in-law. Unhappy. Everything in this harem is empty. As long as you have the support of the emperor, what you want is nothing more than a word?" An Rong's words were indeed serious and thoughtful.
Shen Manyun heard it clearly and took it into his heart: "I know my sister is doing it for my own good. There is something I want to tell my sister. You and I will go to the Hidden Moon Pavilion."
An Rong followed closely and followed Shen Manyun to Yin Yue Pavilion.
After that, Shen Manyun told the story that the emperor and Mu Ci left the palace yesterday to celebrate the Qiqiao Festival.
After hearing this, An Rong's expression did not change at all: "I know what's going on. It's not unusual for the emperor to take his wife out of the palace."
On the contrary, Sister Shen actually knew the emperor's private itinerary, which showed that she had placed people in Yanfu Palace.
Shen Manyun was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Isn't it strange? Think about it, the emperor has always been cold-hearted, but he is so different towards Mu Ci. How would he feel if the emperor took Mu Ci out of the palace and let others see it? ?”
When she received the news last night, she was jealous and angry, angry and helpless.
If the emperor pampered other concubines in the harem, then she would be more accepting of it, but it was Mu Ci who was the wife of the late emperor.
"I said before that the emperor relies heavily on the empress. In this case, what's the point of taking her out of the palace? Sister Shen, I'm just worried that you can't keep your temper. You are not favored now. If you really want to deal with the empress, I'm afraid Dig your own grave." An Rong held Shen Manyun's hand: "Actually, if you think about it, there's nothing wrong with you doing this. If you're not favored, you won't cause trouble. Look at Concubine De, she can achieve the status she has today. , those are all graces bought with blood.”
A cold smile appeared on Shen Manyun's lips: "If I can exchange my blood for the opportunity to rise to the top, I would be willing to do so."
Wealth and honor are found in danger. Instead of continuing to stay in the palace like this, it is better to take a gamble. If you succeed, you will be able to rise to the top. Even if you fail...
Thinking of the fate of Yun Xi and the Yun family, she felt a little scared.
"I still say the same thing, I hope my sister can bear it. Not everyone is the Queen Mother, and not everyone is the Concubine. They can stand firm in the harem, not to mention luck, but to say that they must have the means. Sister Shen, if you think you have the means like them, my sister will never stop you." An Rong is a calm person and her words are quite powerful.
Under her gaze, Shen Manyun finally slumped his shoulders: "I know you are saying this for my own good, but I still don't want to accept it. Every time I see Mu Ci, I think about her virtues and abilities, and why she is so capable. Let the emperor love you so much."
Because she had received the emperor's favor before, she was even more unwilling to do so now.
In the days when she first entered the palace, she was very frivolous and said that she would only be willing to sleep with him if she wanted to please the emperor. She made such a rude request, and the emperor agreed to her and gave her enough time to adapt to the palace. Life.
Occasionally when she dreams back at midnight, she will still think of that sweetest time.
Sometimes she even suspected that it was just a beautiful dream she had. When she woke up from the dream, the emperor who was extremely gentle to her disappeared.
"Our Queen Mother, she is very special. She is so special that no other woman can compare with her. You must never compare yourself with the Queen Mother..." An Rong's voice faded, her eyes were deep, as if Immerse yourself in your own thoughts.
Shen Manyun didn't know what she was thinking, but she always felt that An Rong's expression was a little strange.
Especially when talking about Mu Ci, An Rong's tone was particularly gentle.
People who don't know may think that Mu Ci is one of the people close to An Rong.
"She is special enough, and very unruly. I wonder which widowed woman would be as restless as her, and she could even seduce the emperor." Shen Manyun couldn't help but raise her voice.
An Rong looked at her helplessly: "Sister, you've started again. Your biggest problem is that you are too impulsive. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you will make a big mistake."
It seems that no matter what she says, Sister Shen won't listen. In this way, Sister Shen will fall into the hands of Mu Ci or the emperor one day. By then, no one can save Sister Shen.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I also want to reap the benefits, but who else in the harem can stand up to Mu Ci? We can't wait endlessly. As time goes by, I will grow old." Shen Manyun expressed his thoughts.
This is the root cause of her anxiety.
She originally planned to sit aside and watch the show, waiting for others to fight Mu Ci. But even Yun Xi was killed by Mu Ci. Who else in the harem could be Mu Ci's opponent?
Anyway, if I ask her to look for it, she won't be able to find it.
