Mu Ci never expected that Dugu Liancheng had a terrible past when he was a child, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Even though he looked very calm when he said this, as if he was telling someone else's story, his slightly trembling hands showed that even today, so many years later, those shadows are still with him.
Even if he gained power and was now an emperor, the shadow that Concubine Yun De brought to him was only suppressed by him in a corner where he could not see the light.
The soul-eating grass reminded Dugu Liancheng of those unbearable experiences again, and those past were eating away at his heart like poisonous snakes.
This was the real reason that caused him pain and made him unable to let go.
Mu Ci hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and held Dugu Liancheng's trembling hand.
"You are the emperor of Daxia now. Concubine Yun De has passed away, but you still have a long future. Let go of what you should. If you can't even do this little thing well, how can you be a generation?
Mingjun?"
Her hands were not warm, but they comforted Dugu Liancheng's dark heart.
There had never been a moment when he felt that his heart was warm and warm.
He hugged Mu Ci tightly and said in a deep voice: "Of course I will become a wise king. I have long forgotten those past things. If you hadn't mentioned them, I wouldn't have remembered them."
The implication is that it's all Mu Ci's fault.
Mu Ci was hugged so tightly by Dugu Liancheng that she couldn't move, and she didn't bother to argue with him.
As long as he feels happy.
She is not so naive that Dugu Liancheng would argue about such a thing.
Later, Dugu Liancheng fell asleep on Mu Ci's lap.
He Zhaoyuan heard that the emperor and the queen mother had come to Chuxiu Palace, and she wanted to come over to greet them at the banyan tree, but she never expected to see such a strange scene.
The Emperor seemed to have found a home for his child. He lay on the Queen Mother's lap and slept soundly.
The Queen Mother's expression was intriguing. She looked into the distance with a smile, but also a hint of sadness.
At this time, she didn't understand why. It was only when the Queen Mother was punished by the emperor that she realized that the Queen Mother had already anticipated the future outcome at this moment.
Mu Ci was immersed in her own thoughts. Only after Biyu reminded her did she know that He Zhaoyuan was here.
"The emperor is asleep. You should go back and go to Yanfu Palace to see him when he gets better." Mu Ci said in a low voice.
He Zhaoyuan was blessed and said goodbye.
Amber followed closely behind, and when she returned to the main hall, she whispered: "The emperor is so kind to the Queen Mother, doesn't the Queen want to get rid of the Queen Mother?"
With such an opponent, when will Empress Zhaoyuan have the chance to come forward?
"Stop saying such treacherous words. The Queen Mother is my benefactor. If it hadn't been for the Queen Mother, my grievances would not have been redressed." He Zhaoyuan lowered her face and scolded Hu Hu.
Amber was anxious: "My queen, if you don't protect yourself, you will be destroyed by heaven and earth. With the queen mother here, when will the emperor remember your queen?"
It had been a long time since the emperor came to Chuxiu Palace, and Empress Zhaoyuan had no idea of vying for favor.
"Even if there is no Queen Mother, the Emperor will not necessarily think of me. The fact that I occupy the main seat of Chuxiu Palace is not only the grace of the Emperor, but the Queen Mother also takes a lot of credit. If I retaliate for my kindness, I am afraid that I will
Loss of life." He Zhaoyuan sighed softly, unwilling to continue this topic.
Amber had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.
She still felt that as long as Mu Ci was in the harem, the other concubines, including Empress Zhaoyuan, would have no chance to get ahead.
However, Empress Zhaoyuan is too stubborn to listen to her advice, so what can she do?
Dugu Liancheng slept for a long time without any sign of waking up. Finally, Mu Ci's legs were numb and asked Li Yu to wake Dugu Liancheng up.
When Dugu Liancheng opened his eyes, he found that it was already dusk.
He saw Biyu massaging Mu Ci's legs and knew it was him.
"Let me do it." Dugu Liancheng said, taking Biyu's place, squatting in front of Mu Ci, and massaging her legs.
Mu Ci himself didn't feel anything. After all, Dugu Liancheng was the main culprit for her numb legs, and he should have been responsible for what he had done.
When Li Yu saw this, he kept nagging: "Your Majesty, let your servants and Biyu do such heavy work."
Dugu Liancheng turned around and glanced at Li Yu. Li Yu immediately did not dare to say anything, stepped aside and continued to be the background.
Dugu Liancheng didn't stop until Mu Ci's legs could move. He led Mu Ci and stood up, "You sleep with me tonight."
With Mu Ci here, he seems to no longer have nightmares, and his headaches seem to be much better.
Mu Ci didn't say anything. She was just not used to Dugu Liancheng's fingers being tightly interlocked with hers. As soon as she moved, Dugu Liancheng tightened his grip on her fingers: "Don't move!"
Mu Ci turned to look at Dugu Liancheng and saw that he was in a good mood: "I have solved the knot in your heart, should I be credited with it?"
When Dugu Liancheng heard this, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu Ci: "What do you want again?"
Is it possible that you still want the death-free gold medal?
"I already have the gold medal for immunity from death. This time I want to ask you for a wish. I will ask for it when I need it. No matter what I ask for, you must agree to it." Mu Ci said with a straight face.
Dugu Liancheng looked at Mu Ci: "I always feel that you are a woman with evil intentions, and the demands you make must be too difficult."
Mu Ci just wanted to say "haha" in reply. The emperor was really not easy to fool.
"You, the majestic emperor of Daxia, can't even satisfy the demands of a little girl?" Mu Ci looked at Dugu Liancheng with contempt.
Seeing that she looked down on him, Dugu Liancheng still couldn't stand her provocation, so he readily agreed: "That's all, I'll just agree."
As she said, he is the emperor, and he can do whatever she asks for. It is not a difficult task.
When Mu Ci saw that he had agreed, his heart did not relax.
Ever since she entered the murky waters of the harem, she could get whatever she planned, and everything went smoothly. She also punished those who had harmed her one by one.
And this is just the result of Dugu Liancheng's connivance.
Dugu Liancheng was by no means someone easy to fool, and she didn't dare to be too careless. She also didn't dare to get carried away before everything was settled.
If Dugu Liancheng suspected that she was responsible for the Soul-Eating Grass, her biggest worry would be to implicate the people around her.
With Mu Ci's company, Dugu Liancheng had a good rest that night.
Because he was well rested and no longer plagued by nightmares, his appetite was very good the next day, his face was finally no longer pale, it finally had color, and his energy was not just a little better.
Li Yu respected Mu Ci even more when she saw Long Live Master's long-lost refreshing feeling.
Without the Queen Mother, he couldn't believe what would happen to the Emperor. The Queen Mother invited Qi Yu into the palace to treat the Emperor, and it was the Queen Mother who untied the knot in the Emperor's heart.
