Jirou checked the wounds on all the corpses and found that they were all fatal with a single sword strike.
If Qing Le is the murderer of Yun Xi and Lu Mei, then there is a person with strong martial arts skills beside Qing Le. I don't know whether that person is inside the palace or outside the palace.
That person is also someone who must be guarded against.
Mu Ci then called Jirou over and told her that her main task from now on was to keep an eye on Fei Yuxuan.
She always felt that Qingle's killer was in the harem.
Qing Le has been in the harem for these years. If she can cultivate Mallow, she can naturally also cultivate a palace maid with strong martial arts skills who can be at her disposal at any time.
The day Yun Xi was assassinated was an unexpected incident, so the master should be in the palace, so Qing Le could go to Beigong with that man in time to silence him.
"Yes, slave, please leave." After receiving the order, Ji Rou gave Ningxiang some instructions, asking Ningxiang to protect her master, and then she went about her business with peace of mind.
In the blink of an eye, it’s summer again.
Mu Ci couldn't remember how long it had been since he saw Dugu Liancheng, but Yingchun was always thinking about it.
"If this continues, the emperor will completely forget about the empress." Yingchun has the heart of an old mother.
The empress could sit still, reading medical books, practicing calligraphy, or going to the vegetable field to plant vegetables and water water every day. She seemed to be living a comfortable life, and the emperor's neglect did not make her feel any discomfort.
"Sizhu, please help persuade the empress, we can't stop doing this without seeking to make progress." Yingchun saw that the empress ignored him and looked to Sizhu for help.
Seeing that the empress was painting, Sizhu whispered: "Please keep your voice down, don't disturb the empress."
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the empress being like this now.
The emperor's kindness always comes and goes as quickly as it comes. No wonder the empress doesn't care much about the emperor. If she really cares about him, who will accompany him when he is sad?
She thinks the empress is doing well as she is now.
It's just that the Empress will not spare anyone who should be dealt with. Qing Le will definitely be eliminated by the Empress, but the time has not yet come.
When Yingchun saw that both the empress and Sizhu were so calm, she finally gave up and stopped wasting her words.
The days passed peacefully like this.
The entire harem is saying that the emperor's doting on Mallow has reached a lawless level. There are various rumors, and the emperor cannot live without Mallow at all.
No matter where he goes, he carries Mallow with him. He also said that as long as Mallow wants it, the emperor will get it back.
Yingchun heard this and sneered: "Is it possible that Mallow wants a rouge button, and the emperor also wants to find one for Mallow?"
Sizhu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, it was really true.
Treasures like the rouge button are rare in the world. Last time Qingle was poisoned, the empress was the only one who was not poisoned. The empress said it was probably because of the rouge button.
If Mallow really wanted the rouge button, the emperor would never let the empress give the rouge button to Mallow, right?
She couldn't help but express her worries.
Mu Ci heard this and took out the rouge button: "This thing is good. It would be a pity if the emperor took it back."
But if the emperor really wanted to take it back, there was nothing she could do about it, right?
"Your Majesty, it's better to hide it. If the Emperor really wants to take it away, Your Majesty will say it's lost." Sizhu gave her advice.
Mu Ci laughed dumbly: "Do you think the emperor will believe it?"
Sizhu made a bitter face: "That's true. If the emperor accidentally finds out, it will be the crime of deceiving the emperor."
"There's no need to bother yourself about things that haven't happened." Mu Ci said, touching the rouge button.
This thing is amazing.
When you wear it in winter, your whole body feels warm. When you wear it in summer, it feels cool and comfortable, not hot at all.
Recently, she even felt that the rouge button should belong to her. In this case, if others want it, they don't have to leave it, right?
"I can't understand how Mallow is any better than the empress. At best, he is just a slave. He is not even qualified to carry the empress's shoes." Yingchun said indignantly.
"Find something for her to do and keep her busy." Mu Ci gave an order to Sizhu.
Sizhu took the order, stepped forward to twist Yingchun, and went to find work for Yingchun.
Mu Ci put on her rouge button.
She would never give away what belonged to her under any circumstances. She had thought about returning the Rouge Button to Dugu Liancheng before, so that from now on this thing would belong to her.
Even if Dugu Liancheng ordered him to take it back, she wouldn't give it.
After being bored in Yong'an Palace for a few days, Yingchun ran to Mu Ci and begged for mercy: "Empress, let's go out and stroll around the Imperial Garden? I've finished all the slave's work, so just go ahead and take my slave out for a walk for two-quarters of an hour.
Just come back."
Mu Ci looked at her pitiful look and smiled: "That's all, I'll take you out for a walk."
She was not grounded anymore, so she was bored in Yong'an Palace all day long. It was really unnecessary. She might as well take these girls to bask in the sun and replenish their yang energy.
Mu Ci gave the order, and Yingchun jumped up with excitement. She led the way, looking so majestic and high-spirited that Mu Ci couldn't help laughing.
Since it's still morning, it's not too hot.
In addition, Mu Ci was wearing a rouge button, and there was no warmth at all in his body.
Hundreds of flowers are in full bloom in the Imperial Garden, all kinds of flowers are fluttering in the wind, and the fragrant breeze blows towards your face.
There was a faint smile on the corner of Mu Ci's mouth, and he sighed that time flies by. The last time he came back to the Imperial Garden, it was still spring, but the season had changed in the blink of an eye.
After walking only a few steps, she saw several concubines in the harem arguing in front of her. One of them looked similar to her, but it was Yao Feier, whom she had not seen in a long time.
The rest are Qi Luo, Muxue and Wu Meiren.
When she arrived, Yao Feier was kneeling on the ground, and it seemed that she had been kneeling for a long time.
Wu Meiren stood aside, while Mu Xue and Qi Luo sat.
Muxue is now free from the ban.
Looking at Wu Meiren's appearance, she must have been scolded by Muxue.
Mu Ci had not left Yong'an Palace for a long time, and now he suddenly appeared. A sarcastic smile appeared on Mu Xue's lips: "Isn't this the Queen Mother? Why are you here visiting the Imperial Garden today?"
Mu Xue looked Mu Ci up and down, and saw that she was not wearing any makeup, but she was very pretty. She looked more beautiful and more delicate than before.
This woman has fallen out of favor. Shouldn't she look haggard and unable to come out to meet people?
Mu Xue tried to look for traces of frustration on Mu Ci's face, but to no avail.
Sizhu went to Muxue, saluted Muxue, and then said: "Do you still need slaves to teach Concubine Shu about the rules of the harem? Why can't Concubine Shu be polite when she sees the Queen Mother?"
Mu Xue glanced at Si Zhu coldly, thinking to herself that a little servant dared to face her?
It turns out that Mu Ci is the Queen Mother. Even though she is a first-class concubine, she still has to bow to Mu Ci.
She bowed reluctantly, thinking that Mu Ci's good days were over, and now Mu Ci was no longer a threat to her. One day, she would deal with Mu Ci.
After Muxue saluted, Mu Ci did not excuse her. Instead, he sat where Muxue had been before, looked at Yao Feier who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "Why is Yao Cairen kneeling on the ground?"
