After they were seated, Qingle stood aside to accompany him.
Mu Ci saw her restraint and smiled kindly: "Sit down, there is no need to be restrained in front of the Ai family."
Qing Le sat down as he was told, but she was thinking in her heart, how could someone smile as charmingly as Mu Ci but have a heart as vicious as a snake or a scorpion?
It is true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
Qing Le was usually a person who had nothing to say, so naturally he would not aggrieve himself in front of Mu Ci at this moment, and deliberately spoke to liven up the atmosphere.
Mu Ci was teasing the eldest prince. The eldest prince seemed to like her very much and would get into her arms from time to time, which made her very happy.
This scene hurt Qing Le's eyes again.
This is the child she gave birth to after seven months of pregnancy, and she has devoted so much effort to this child. Whenever she is free, she is the one who stays with the child herself.
But Mu Ci had only taken the child away for a few days, and the child regarded Mu Ci as a relative, while her mother was like an outsider.
Why doesn't this make her heartbroken?
Chunfeng had been paying attention to her master's expression, and now she also understood that his master was once again stimulated by Mu Ci.
Even she could see it. Mu Ci seemed to be doing nothing on the surface, but in fact he was trying to kill his master's heart.
Even she was frightened by Mu Ci's methods.
In the past, she felt that her master's methods were unmatched by anyone, but now she felt that her master's methods were still a little inferior to Mu Ci's.
Just a little bit, but not enough.
She secretly tugged on her master's sleeve, signaling him to hold on still and not be led around by Mu Ci.
Qing Le came back to his senses, forced a smile, and his mood finally stabilized.
Huayu saw the interaction between Chunfeng and Qingle clearly, and became more alert. It was not her imagination, she was indeed an excluded outsider.
Shen Manyun also came to the Royal Garden. Later, she heard that Mu Ci and Qing Le were at the Bajiao Pavilion, so she knew there was a good show to watch, so she came here.
"I respectfully invite the Queen Mother Jin An." Shen Manyun saluted Mu Ci.
Mu Ci spared her the courtesy and motioned for her to sit down.
Qing Le saluted Shen Manyun and was polite before Shen Manyun said, "What are you talking about, are you and Le Jieyu so happy?"
Of course she knew that Qing Le could not be happy, but she said this deliberately to test Qing Le's reaction.
On weekdays, Qing Le always hides in Fei Yuxuan and does not go out. Even if someone is watching the eldest prince, they can't find a chance to make a move. This shows that Qing Le's strategy is right.
In this harem, how can there be any truly low-key concubines? They are just two types of people: those with high means and those with low means.
She didn't expect to understand before, but later she saw clearly that Qing Le belonged to the group of people with high means.
The concubines in the harem were fighting to the death, but she was reaping the benefits, and she still had the good card of the eldest prince in her hand.
At present, all the concubines in the harem were almost taken care of by Mu Ci. Qing Le, a master hiding in the dark, also caught Mu Ci's eyes, so Mu Ci brought the eldest prince into Yong'an Palace.
People like Qing Le are similar to An Rong.
Zhao Ling even noticed An Rong because of Mu Ci, but he didn't find anyone like Qing Le, which proved that Qing Le had some scheming intentions.
Now that Mu Ci has finally taken action against Qing Le, he even made an issue about the eldest prince whom Qing Le cares about most. Qing Le's ability to remain calm illustrates the problem even more.
"It's just a small talk." Mu Ci teased the eldest prince and replied with a smile.
"Your Majesty, can I hug the eldest prince?" Shen Manyun's hands were itchy, but he actually wanted to test Mu Ci and Qing Le's reaction.
Mu Ci was happy and quickly handed the child to her.
When she took the eldest prince, she took the time to glance at Qing Le's expression. It looked normal, but the red bloodshot eyes could not be concealed.
This shows that no matter how patient he is, Qing Le's eyes still turn red.
The eldest prince refused to accept life, Shen Manyun hugged him and teased him for a while, and the eldest prince started playing with her.
"The eldest prince is so good, he is not afraid of strangers at all. Recently, the eldest prince and the Queen Mother have become closer, right?" Shen Manyun continued to fan the flames.
"Yes, I still don't want to sleep without the Ai family at night." Mu Ci replied following Shen Manyun's words.
It was obvious what Shen Manyun was thinking, but he just wanted to intensify the conflict between her and Qing Le. She was worried that no one would stimulate Qing Le again, but Shen Manyun came at the right time.
"This proves that the Queen Mother is friendly. The eldest prince is really lucky to be able to follow the Queen Mother." Shen Manyun looked at Qing Le with a smile: "Le Jieyu, do you think so?"
I wonder how much Le Jieyu can bear it?
Qing Le looked at the child held by Shen Manyun. Only she knew how complicated her mood was. But at this time, she could only follow Shen Manyun's words and said: "The Queen Mother is a blessed one. Nian'er will follow her. I hope You can also get some blessings from your empress."
Seeing that she couldn't afford to stir up trouble, Shen Manyun secretly thought that Qing Le was more scheming than she thought. At this time, he could still laugh. It seemed that Mu Ci had met his match.
Mu Ci has been having a smooth sailing recently, and no one who is targeted by Mu Ci has a good ending. Now that Qing Le has become a thorn in Mu Ci's side, he doesn't know what kind of end he will end up with.
She really hopes that Qing Le's fighting power can be stronger and suppress Mu Ci Ruhong's momentum.
The concubines in the harem are really going to be fought over by Mu Ci. If Mu Ci can't be the only one in the family, how can the others survive?
Secretly, she still hoped that Qing Le could win over Mu Ci.
Shen Manyun had the intention of sowing discord and trying to stimulate Qing Le. Little did he know that her plan was exactly what Mu Ci wanted.
Mu Ci also hopes that someone can stimulate Qing Le. She always feels that as long as Qing Le takes action, there will be a way to take down Qing Le in one fell swoop.
No matter how powerful a player is, there will be times when he makes a mistake. As long as he takes action, he can always find a flaw.
There is no other reason. Qing Le is the biological mother of the eldest prince, and the emperor values the eldest prince. Furthermore, Qing Le is very cautious in his actions and leaves no evidence of what he has done before.
According to her observation just now, Hua Yu was indeed excluded by Qing Le.
No matter how Hua Yu is, she is a first-class palace maid, but Qing Le is cautious and only trusts the spring breeze. This shows how careful Qing Le is in daily life.
It is not easy to find a weakness in such an enemy.
"Hearing what Le Jieyu said, the Ai family should remember her for a while longer." Mu Ci followed Qing Le's words.
Qing Le's expression was a little stiff, but he quickly returned to normal.
When Mu Ci saw that the heat was almost there, he stopped staying.
"The Ai family just took Nian'er out to bask in the sun. You continue to visit the garden. The Ai family has returned." Mu Ci said and took the eldest prince.
As soon as the eldest prince saw her, he immediately hugged her neck and smiled brightly at her.
People who don't know, think they are mother and son.
