Huayu nodded while listening, feeling that Yingchun's words made sense.
Being ordinary is happiness. Don't think about harming people all the time. Make good friends and leave the palace when you are twenty-five years old.
But if she leaves the palace, she will be twenty-five years old and she won't be able to marry. Thinking about it this way, there seems to be no hope for leaving the palace.
Yingchun comforted Huayu again, and Huayu responded one by one: "Thank you for your teachings, aunt. I will remember them all."
Yingchun chatted with Huayu for a few more words, watched Huayu leave, and then returned to Yong'an Palace to resume her life.
Last night, the empress asked whether she and Fei Yuxuan knew anyone from the palace. The first thing that came to her mind was Hua Yu.
She had dealt with Hua Yu twice and knew that this palace maid had no scheming intentions. She also had a deep impression of Hua Yu, so she took the initiative to ask for help to get close to Hua Yu.
What she just said to Hua Yu was not against her will.
Those who harm others will always suffer backlash. There are so many lessons learned, right?
After returning to Yong'an Palace, she immediately reported what had just happened to her empress.
"Are you sure Hua Yu didn't know about it?" Mu Ci asked worriedly.
It was true that Yingchun was sometimes too naive, and she was afraid that Yingchun would not recognize people clearly and would be plotted by Fei Yuxuan.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I don't have much ability, and I'm always getting into trouble, but I'm still very good at judging people. Hua Yu's loss of ambition didn't happen in a day or two. Long before I found out that something was wrong with Le Jieyu, I
Let’s deal with Huayu.” Yingchun replied decisively.
Seeing how determined she was, Mu Ci touched her head and said, "The Ai family believes in you, but they don't trust others."
She had seen all kinds of darkness in the harem, and she found it too difficult to find a simpler person in the harem.
On Huayu's side, she still had to find a chance to get in touch to see if it was true as Yingchun said.
Two days later, Mu Ci really found an opportunity.
Because the eldest prince was sent to Yong'an Palace, Qingle became idle.
In the past, all her energy was spent on the eldest prince, but now that the child was sent away, she suddenly had free time and liked to think wildly all day long.
It was Chunfeng who suggested that she should go out for a walk, so she decided to go to the Royal Garden to visit the gardens.
Mu Ci received the news that Qing Le was in the Royal Garden, and decided to meet Qing Le as well.
Qing Le didn't expect to meet Mu Ci so quickly.
The rash on Mu Ci's face still had some marks, but the eldest prince recovered faster and was almost healed.
At that time, Mu Ci held the eldest prince's hand and taught the child to walk.
When Qing Le saw this scene, his eyes were red and his expression was a little ferocious.
Chunfeng grabbed Qingle's arm immediately: "Master, calm down."
Hua Yu was also on the side and felt strange when he saw Qing Le and Chun Feng's reactions.
The Queen Mother did not abuse the eldest prince, so why did the master look like he was filled with hatred for the Queen Mother?
She thought this scene was very strange. Just as she was staring at her master, Chunfeng suddenly looked at her coldly, his eyes as sharp as knives.
She was startled and quickly looked away, but her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
She thought she and Chunfeng were friends before, but now it seems that Chunfeng regards her as an enemy.
The words I spoke to her a few days before the Spring Festival rang out without warning.
Yingchun said that if something happened to Fei Yuxuan one day, the master and Chunfeng might push her out to block the knife, and the way the master looked at the Queen Mother just now...
For a moment, Hua Yu was in a state of confusion.
Mu Ci straightened up at this time and looked at Qing Le standing in front of her. She slightly curved her lips and said, "Le Jieyu is here too?"
When the eldest prince saw Qing Le at first sight, he recognized that it was his mother. He made babbling sounds and wanted to go over, but was hugged by Mu Ci.
She gently kissed the child's face, and the child's attention was immediately diverted. Instead, he kissed her back and forgot about Qing Le who was standing not far away.
Qing Le saw this scene from a distance, and his eyes were full of tears.
She could even foresee that in the near future, the child would regard Mu Ci as the closest person, but she, the mother, would be forgotten by her biological son.
How could Mu Ci take away her child in such a cruel way? How could it be possible!
At this moment, Qingle suddenly wanted to understand something.
As early as the moment Mu Ci took Nian'er away from her, Mu Ci was already taking action against her. Mu Ci knew that Nian'er was her weakness, so he started from her weakness.
It's ridiculous that she didn't notice it at all, but thought she could scheme against Mu Ci again.
In fact, Mu Ci had already taken the initiative from the moment Nian'er was sent to Yong'an Palace. It's ridiculous that she didn't understand this until now.
Seeing Qing Le's sad and angry expression, Chunfeng hurriedly supported his master and whispered: "The Queen Mother is talking to my master."
At this time, there is no advantage in a showdown with Mu Ci.
After all, Qing Le still had some composure. She quickly returned to normal and saluted Mu Ci: "I respectfully invite the Queen Mother Jin An."
"You don't look well, but are you feeling unwell?" Mu Ci asked casually.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Hua Yu, who was standing on the left side of Qing Le.
Hua Yu stood aside politely, as if he had something on his mind and was a little absent-minded.
Qing Le didn't know that Mu Ci was not interested in drinking. He just saw Mu Ci hugging his son and felt sick in his heart.
"Thank you for your concern, I am fine." Qing Le lowered her eyes and responded.
She didn't want to see Mu Ci holding Nian'er, otherwise she wouldn't be heartbroken.
Mu Ci didn't seem to notice that she was not in high spirits, so he said directly: "Now that we have met, let's accompany the Ai family to the Bajiao Pavilion in front to sit for a while."
After she finished speaking, she took the lead and left, regardless of whether Qing Le followed.
Qing Le looked at Mu Ci's back coldly, sighing that this is the benefit of being in a high position. Why are so many concubines in the harem doing anything to climb up?
In this cannibalistic place, power means everything.
And she was just a little Jieyu. Even though she was much better than the other concubines, she was still like an ant in front of Mu Ci.
"Master, calm down." Chunfeng reminded in a low voice.
Qingle took a deep breath and replied with a slight smile: "I know."
As she spoke, Chunfeng and Chunfeng followed Mu Ci away.
Huayu didn't mean to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, but she was standing just enough to hear clearly.
What she wondered was why Qingle and Chunfeng were so on guard against the Queen Mother. Could it be that the master and the Queen Mother didn't deal with her?
Thinking of this possibility, Hua Yu felt cold in his heart.
She was most afraid that if she guessed correctly, the master wanted to deal with the Queen Mother, but when the incident came to light, he would push her, an innocent person, out of the way to block the knife.
Yingchun's words are not unreasonable, and it is necessary to be on guard against others. She can no longer be ignorant in the future, and she has to be more careful about everything. She doesn't want to die in an unknown way one day.
When Mu Ci arrived at the Bajiao Pavilion, Si Zhu had thoughtfully prepared fruits and nodded.
